The present invention relates to a valve for a system for spraying a cleaning liquid, said valve comprising: —a valve body including a hydraulic cavity configured to be fluidically connected to a hydraulic channel of the spray system and intended to receive the cleaning liquid, —a plunger configured to be displaced in the hydraulic cavity between an open position, in which it allows the cleaning liquid to enter the hydraulic channel, and a closed position, in which it prevents the passage of the cleaning liquid through the hydraulic channel, —a compressible elastic element containing a gas disposed in the hydraulic cavity and configured to be compressed if the cleaning liquid in the valve freezes.

A method for measuring the hardware and operational state of a dual-circuit solenoid valve including first and second coaxial coils each associated with a circuit is disclosed. The method includes the steps of injecting a sinusoidal current into the first coil; measuring the voltage induced across the terminals of the second coil; and plotting at least one curve of a first magnitude proportional to the measured induced voltage as a function of a second magnitude proportional to the injected sinusoidal current.

The present disclosure in at least one embodiment provides a solenoid valve for a vehicle brake, including a sleeve internally formed with a hollow interior space and fixed to a pump housing, a coil surrounding the sleeve, a first magnetic body at least partially accommodated in the hollow interior space of the sleeve, a second magnetic body at least partially accommodated in the hollow interior space of the sleeve, an elastic member disposed between the first magnetic body and the second magnetic body, an orifice configured to open and close as the second magnetic body moves, and a damping member disposed between the first magnetic body and the second magnetic body to form a gap between the first magnetic body and the second magnetic body.

A valve assembly consists essentially of a valve body having an inlet port and an outlet port; a valve retainer at least partially housed within the valve body; a valve poppet positioned within the valve body; a magnet affixed within the valve body near the valve body inlet port; and a solenoid coil mounted around the valve body.

A valve device having a valve housing (10), in which fluid ports (P, A, T) are provided and in which at least one valve piston (12, 14) can be moved longitudinally, which valve piston either separates at least two of the fluid ports (P, A, T) from one another or interconnects them as a function of its travel position, and having at least one latching device (16, 18) for each valve piston (12, 14) for the detachable fastening of the respective valve pistons (12, 14) in one of its travel positions, which latching device has at least one latching means (20), which can be brought into a latching position (22), which is characterized in that, as part of the respective latching devices (16, 18) for detachably fastening the respective valve pistons (12, 14), at least one control body (24) that can be moved independently of the respective valve pistons (12, 14) is provided, which control body is set up such that, in at least one blocking position, it prevents the relevant latching means (20) disposed in the latching position (22) from leaving the latching position (22) by blocking the latching means (20) is disclosed.

The present invention accurately estimates the opening state of a solenoid valve using a feature amount based on driving current information of the solenoid valve. A solenoid valve abnormality detection device, which uses a driving current pattern associated with valve opening of a solenoid valve and detected by a current sensor to detect an abnormality of the solenoid valve, comprises: a feature amount extraction unit that determines a feature amount of a driving current pattern associated with valve opening of the solenoid valve within a predetermined detection period; a feature amount correction unit that estimates the valve temperature of the solenoid valve; and an opening state estimation unit that estimates the opening state of the solenoid valve using the feature amount value corrected by the feature amount correction unit.

An electrically controlled valve for a shock absorber. The valve comprises a piston providing a primary fluid channel for damping fluid and a housing in which a piston holder is provided with an internal secondary fluid channel for damping fluid. Fluid flow (23) through the secondary fluid channel for damping fluid. Fluid flow through the secondary fluid channel is controlled by a spool movable within the piston holder wherein the movement of the spool is enabled by an electrically controlled actuator. Fluid flow through the secondary fluid channel is controlled by restriction at the inlet of the secondary fluid channel the inlet comprising one or more radial holes through the piston holder.
