METHOD OF CONTROLLING PRESSURE VARIATION IN WORKING FLUIDS IN A FLUID CIRCUIT UNDERGOING WORKING PRESSURE VARIATIONS

摘要

Described herein is a fluid circuit device. The device incorporates at least one pressure balancing valve located between at least two fluid volumes that can be in a pressure differential arrangement wherein the at least one pressure balancing valve acts to address a pressure differential by opening a fluid volume or volumes to a third pressure equalising volume. In use, the fluid circuit device may in one embodiment be used in an energy absorbtion apparatus.
