The apparatus (100) includes a solenoid (106) having a coil (202) and an armature (204). The armature (204) is movable relative to the coil (202) in response to energization of the coil (202). A control valve (206) delivers a flow of fluid to the actuator (102). The rate of the fluid flow is responsive to the movement of the armature (204).

Why it's free to use
- Filed February 25, 1991. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended February 25, 2011.

- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
