Abstract

A bidirectional hydraulic servomotor system includes a variable-displacement motor which may impel or brake movement of a load member that either resists or assits movement by the servomotor, respectively. The direction of load movement is under control of a directional control valve with motor displacement and function (impelling or braking) being effected automatically to achieve controlled load movemement with minimal consumption of hydraulic fluid.
