ELECTROMAGNETIC VALVE

摘要

An electromagnetic valve includes a housing, a valve element, a movable core, a spring, a coil, and a stationary core. The housing includes a cylinder portion that houses the movable core so that the movable core is movable in an axial direction. An axial intermediate portion of the cylinder portion is formed as a non-magnetic portion that surrounds an outer circumference of an axial intermediate portion of the movable core. Both axial sides of the non-magnetic portion are formed as a one-side magnetic portion and an another-side magnetic portion that surround an outer circumference of the movable core. An electromagnetic force in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction, for generating a friction resistance to axial movement of the movable core, is set to be generated by energization of the coil between the outer circumference of the movable core and the one-side magnetic portion of the cylinder portion on one axial side of the non-magnetic portion and between the outer circumference of the movable core and the another-side magnetic portion of the cylinder portion on another axial side of the non-magnetic portion.

1. An electromagnetic valve, comprising:
a housing having an inlet port and an outlet port for a fluid, a passage for bringing the inlet port and the outlet port into communication with each other, a valve hole having a valve seat formed on one end portion, the valve hole being formed in the passage, and a cylinder portion coaxial with the valve hole; a valve element provided so as to be seatable on and unseatable from the valve seat; a movable core integral with the valve element, and assembled to the cylinder portion so as to be movable in an axial direction; a spring for biasing the valve element and the movable core in a seating direction or an unseating direction relative to the valve seat; and a coil and a stationary core for generating an electromagnetic force against a load of the spring for the movable core by energization, wherein an axial intermediate portion of the cylinder portion is formed as a non-magnetic portion surrounding an outer circumference of an axial intermediate portion of the movable core, wherein both axial sides of the non-magnetic portion are formed as a one-side magnetic portion and an another-side magnetic portion that surround an outer circumference of the movable core, wherein the electromagnetic valve further comprises a thin sleeve made of a non-magnetic substance, and provided between the outer circumference of the movable core and an inner circumference of the cylinder portion, and wherein the thin sleeve is assembled to the outer circumference of the movable core and is omitted on one end portion of the movable core, which is opposed to the stationary core.
