Abstract

See full text

An electro-hydraulic control structure having a control input positioning a flapper relative to a nozzle to generate a control output pressure is provided with a squeeze film damper which utilizes the flapper, or an extension thereof, as the movable element of the squeeze film damper. Preferably the flapper is pivoted and forms with the nozzle exhaust passageway a tapered gap receiving a small portion of the nozzle flow which acts as the damping fluid. The majority of the nozzle flow passes through a hollow portion of the flapper located downstream of the nozzle.
