FLUX COLLECTOR WITH INTERCONNECTED PORTIONS AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SOLENOID VALVE ASSEMBLY HAVING SAME

摘要

An apparatus such as for a solenoid valve assembly includes a substantially annular flux collector (12) that has a first arced portion (10) and at least one additional arced portion (14). The first arced portion and the at least one additional arced portion are cooperatively configured to interlock with one another to form the substantially annular flux collector. A method (200) of manufacturing a solenoid valve assembly using the annular flux collector is also provided.
