It usually has valves leading to pump and the tank on one side,
and valves leading to one or more hydraulic devices on the other
side. Pressure can flow into the valve from the pump into the
hydraulic devices, or drain out of them back into a hydraulic
storage tank.
A controller moves the valve back and forth in its case to slide
the spools into different positions. The position of the rotor will
only allow the hydraulic fluid to flow in one direction to
perform a specific task.
Function
Spool valves direct the flow of fluid to and from other
valves within a hydraulic system. A typical four-way spool
valve has openings leading to and from another valve, as
well as from the fluid pump and to the fluid reservoir.

Power Steering
using to turn the wheels. The more torque the driver uses to turn the
wheels, the more the bar twists.
The input from the steering shaft forms the inner part of a spool-valve
assembly. It also connects to the top end of the torsion bar. The bottom
of the torsion bar connects to the outer part of the spool valve. The
torsion bar also turns the output of the steering gear, connecting to either
the pinion gear or the worm gear depending on which type of steering
the car has.
As the bar twists, it rotates the inside of the spool valve relative to the
outside. Since the inner part of the spool valve is also connected to the
steering shaft (and therefore to the steering wheel), the amount of
rotation between the inner and outer parts of the spool valve depends on
how much torque the driver applies to the steering wheel.
When the steering wheel is not being turned, both hydraulic lines
provide the same amount of pressure to the steering gear. But if the
spool valve is turned one way or the other, ports open up to provide
high-pressure fluid to the appropriate line.
Sliding Valve
Hydraulic Cranes
Joy sticks and foot pedals are connected to hydraulic hoses that connect
various hydraulic rams to spool valves. The spool valve is connected to
the hydraulic pump via a third hose that is placed between the two hoses
that run from the spool valve to the hydraulic ram. When a joystick is
pushed in one direction, it causes the valve to shut off one of the
hydraulic hoses leading to the ram and open the other. Which way the
joystick is pushed determines whether the piston in the hydraulic ram
slides in or out.
The spool-valve system lets the crane operator control
