Patent ID: 7431046

Claim:
A pneumatic device for continuously varying the pressure of compressed air for feeding pneumatic actuators, comprising: pressure regulation means, adapted to receive in input an unregulated air pressure line and to provide in output, in the line, a regulated pressure; drive actuation means, for actuating said pressure regulation means; error amplifying means for driving said actuation means; and pressure transducer means, for detecting a pressure value downstream of said pressure regulation means and for feeding said value back to said error amplifying means, for closed-loop control of said pressure regulation means, wherein said pressure regulation means constitute a first pressure regulation loop and said error amplifying means, said actuation means, said pressure regulation means and said pressure transducer means constitute a second pressure regulation loop, which is external to said first loop, wherein said first and second pressure regulation loop receive in input a single set-point signal that is a pressure set-point value input to said error amplifying means in addition to said pressure value detected by said transducer means.
