Abstract

A proportional hydraulic distributor with a hollow, cylindrical compensating slide, a seat at one end of the compensating slide, a reciprocable piston, an end of which is urged against the seat by a spring, a pressure assistance chamber surrounding the seat, and a choke connecting the entry pressure of the hydraulic distributor to the pressure assistance chamber. The balance of forces on the reciprocable piston and on the cylindrical compensating slide is equal to and oppositely directed with respect to the hydrodynamic drag force that develops during transitional phases of the operation of the hydraulic distributor.
