This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18237272 titled 'FLUID SYSTEM WITH MULTI-MODE TRANSFER VALVE

Original Abstract Submitted

A fluid system is provided that includes a first actuator, a second actuator and a valve system. The valve system includes a first control valve, a second control valve and a transfer valve. During a first mode of operation, the transfer valve is configured to fluidly couple the first control valve to the first actuator and fluidly couple the second control valve to the second actuator, and the transfer valve is also configured to fluidly decouple the first control valve from the second actuator and fluidly decouple the second control valve from the first actuator. During a second mode of operation, the transfer valve is configured to fluidly couple the first control valve to the first actuator and the second actuator, and the transfer valve is also configured to fluidly decouple the second control valve from the first actuator and the second actuator.
