This invention relates to an improved reservoir for power steering fluid which is particularly suitable for use on large vehicles, such as trucks. The improved reservoir of this invention comprises a well to contain a surplus of power steering fluid. The well has an inlet to permit the introduction of fluid from a power steering mechanism into the well, and an outlet to permit the fluid to flow out of the well to the power steering mechanism. The well also has a filter attached over the inlet. The filter comprises a container having a lower chamber, a side chamber, a filter medium and a relief valve. Fluid received in the lower chamber from the inlet pipe flows to the side chamber and through the filter medium from the outside surface to the inside surface, and then out through a centre orifice to the well. Fluid at or above a predetermined pressure flows through the pressure relief valve and out through the centre orifice to the well.

Cette invention concerne un réservoir amélioré de fluide de servodirection utilisé particulièrement avec les gros véhicules, les camions par exemple. Le réservoir amélioré faisant l'objet de la présente invention comprend une cuvette destinée à recevoir un surplus de fluide de servodirection. La cuvette comprend une entrée permettant l'introduction de fluide en provenance des organes de servodirection; aussi, un filtre est posé par dessus l'entrée. Le filtre comprend un contenant avec une chambre inférieure, une chambre latérale, un milieu filtrant et une soupape de surpression. Le fluide qui arrive dans la chambre inférieure en passant par la canalisation d'entrée circule vers la chambre latérale et passe à travers le milieu filtrant, de la surface extérieure vers la surface intérieure puis vers l'extérieur, par un orifice central, jusqu'à la cuvette. Le fluide dont la pression est égale ou supérieure à une pression prédéterminée circule par la soupape de surpression et sort dans la cuvette en passant par l'orifice central.
