A valve for metering a fluid, including an electromagnetic actuator and a valve needle which is actuatable by an armature of the actuator and used to actuate a valve closing body which cooperates with a valve seat surface to form a seal seat. The armature is movably guided at the valve needle in the process. A stop element connected to the valve needle limits a relative movement between the armature and the valve needle in connection with an actuation of the valve needle. At least one elastically deformable spacer element is provided between the armature and the stop element, which, during the limitation of the relative movement between the armature and the valve needle at the stop element, encloses an attenuation space provided between a front face of the armature and a stop element surface of the stop element facing the front face of the armature.

Provided is a fluid control solenoid valve including: a valve body; a valve seat mounted on a lower portion thereof; a coil mounted on an outer circumferential surface thereof and to which power is applied; a core mounted on an inner surface thereof; a lower plunger movably disposed on the inner surface thereof and formed with an orifice and integrally formed with a tight contact portion to be in tight contact with the valve seat on a bottom surface thereof; and an actuating unit arranged to be linearly moved on an upper side of the lower plunger, actuated by interlocking the lower plunger and formed with an actuating rod which is linearly moved and which is in close contact with the orifice. A fluid flow delay unit is provided on an outer surface of the lower plunger to generate pressure difference between upper and lower portions of the lower plunger.

An actuator for a hydraulic valve for a cam phaser, the actuator comprising a magnetisable actuator housing that envelops a magnet coil; a pole group that is arranged in a housing receiver opening of the magnetisable actuator housing, wherein the pole group includes a pole core and a pole tube, wherein the pole core and the pole tube are connected by a connection bar and the pole core is connected with the connection bar by a pole core cone, or the pole tube is connected with the connection bar by a pole tube cone, wherein an armature is received axially movable in an inner space of the pole group.

An electromagnetic actuator device, in particular an electromagnetic valve device, has at least one magnet core element, has a magnet armature element, which is supported movably relative to the magnet core element and forms a receiving recess, and has a reset spring, which is configured to push the magnet core element and the magnet armature element away from one another, the magnet armature element having an application face, which is arranged inside the receiving recess and on which a first end of the reset spring is supported, wherein the electromagnetic actuator device comprises a damping element, which is arranged between the magnet core element and the magnet armature element and which forms a spring seat, on which a second end of the reset spring, lying opposite the first end, is supported.

A valve assembly for a fluid pump includes a valve body; a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet defined in the valve body; a valve seat; and an inlet disk disposed in the valve body having an inner portion, an outer portion fixed within the valve body, and a plurality of legs connected between the inner portion and the outer portion so that the inner portion is movable between a first position against the valve seat and a second position spaced apart from the valve seat. The connection between the legs, the inner portion and the outer portion provides a spring bias force to the inner portion against movement of the inner portion from the first position. The plurality of legs, the inner portion and the outer portion are configured such that the spring bias force is asymmetric as applied to the inner portion of the inlet disk.

A fluid control valve includes: a valve main body including a circulation hole through which a fluid flows and a yoke that has a valve seat provided in the circulation hole and has magnetism; a valve body controlling flow of the fluid by abutting on the valve seat when the valve body is seated and separating from the valve seat when the valve is opened, and having magnetism; an electromagnetic coil provided on the valve main body, and generating a magnetic field to attract the valve body to the valve seat; and a buffer member that abuts on the valve body that moves in a valve closing direction to reduce a moving speed of the valve body after a valve closing operation is started and before the valve body is seated.

A linear actuator system has a rotary spool valve configuration having a spool, a piston, and a cylinder. The spool and piston have return apertures so positioned, configured and angled to direct return flow towards the center of a spool central return port and spool pressure ports to direct pressurized flow into upper or lower chambers. Rotation of the spool synchronizes and aligns ports and apertures to reverse flows and effect upward and downward translation of the cylinder to vibrationally drive an implement to perform work. The positioned and angled apertures direct the fluid to a region demarcated by a total length of 1.5 times the interior diameter of the spool central return port centered about a piston shoulder. A base plug member having a bull-nose tip, baffles and cavities is disposed within the spool central return port to reduce or eliminate cavitation.

To reduce collision noise caused when an electromagnetic valve of a high-pressure fuel supply pump is opened. Therefore, in a control device for controlling a high-pressure fuel supply pump including: an anchor; a fixed core configured to attract the anchor with an electromagnetic force; a suction valve configured to be opened or closed when the anchor is sucked by the fixed core; and an electromagnetic force generation unit configured to generate the electromagnetic force when applied with a driving voltage, it can be achieved by providing a control unit configured to perform control to lower a driving current from a peak current before a timing at which the anchor is sucked by the fixed core and collides in an operation state where an engine is under no load and an engine rotation speed is equal to or less than a set rotation speed.

An example valve includes a main stage, a pilot stage, and a solenoid actuator. The main stage includes a sleeve and a piston axially movable within the sleeve. The piston defines a cavity therein. The pilot stage includes a pilot pin received at, and axially movable in, the cavity of the piston, where the piston forms a pilot seat at which the pilot pin is seated when the valve is in a closed state. The solenoid actuator includes a solenoid coil, an armature, and a solenoid spring. The solenoid spring applies a biasing force in a distal direction on the pilot pin to seat the pilot pin at the pilot seat. Energizing the solenoid coil causes the armature to move in a proximal direction, thereby reducing the biasing force that the solenoid spring applies on the pilot pin.
