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.

A solenoid includes a coil, a cylindrical sliding core, a columnar plunger, a bottomed cylindrical yoke including a cylindrical portion and a bottom portion that is connected to the cylindrical portion and faces a base end surface of the plunger, and the bottomed cylindrical yoke configured to accommodate the coil, the sliding core, and the plunger, a magnetic attraction core arranged to face a distal end surface of the plunger, and a magnetic flux transfer member that transfers magnetic flux between the sliding core and the yoke. When the plunger is closest to the magnetic attraction core, a position of the base end surface of the plunger along an axial direction is the same as position of the end of the sliding core along the axial direction, or is closer to the bottom portion side of the sliding core along the axial direction than the end of the sliding core.

The invention relates to a proportional valve (1) for controlling a gaseous medium, in particular hydrogen, comprising a valve housing (2), in which a closing element (10) arranged therein interacts with a valve seat (19) in order to open and close at least one passage opening (18). Furthermore, an armature device (25), which is operatively connected to the closing element (10), and an electromagnet (26) are provided, by means of which electromagnet a magnetic force can be produced on the armature device (25) and the armature device (25) can move reciprocatingly along a longitudinal axis (40) of the proportional valve (1). Moreover, the electromagnet (26) comprises an inner pole (14), an outer pole (13) and a solenoid coil (12) and the armature device (25) composes an armature (8). The valve housing (2) and the inner pole (14) are magnetically connected to each other by means of a magnetic choke point (20). The magnetic choke point (20) is formed in an axial region of extent of the armature (8). Furthermore, the inner pole (14) has a cavity (21) having a cavity edge (35). The armature (8) plunges in said cavity (21) during the reciprocating motion of said armature. In a closed position of the proportional valve (1), an end face (33) of the armature (8) lies at the same height as the cavity edge (35) of the cavity (21) with respect to the longitudinal axis (40), the cavity edge (35) forming the end of the magnetic choke point (20).

An electromagnetic actuator in which magnetic force from a permanent magnet causes a stator core and a first plunger to attract each other, and electromagnetic force generated by energizing an electromagnetic coil causes a mover to resist against the magnetic force from the permanent magnet to move in an axial direction separating from a front end portion of the stator core, wherein a ring member provided on the mover is inserted in the axial direction into a hole portion provided in a bottom wall member of a yoke, and an overlap size between the ring member and the bottom wall member is increased when the mover moves relative to the stator core in a separating direction, so that a magnetism transmission quantity from the permanent magnet passing through an overlap portion between the ring member and the bottom wall member is inhibited from being reduced.

A vapor impermeable solenoid includes an outer housing fabricated from a vapor impermeable material configured to prevent fuel vapor molecules from passing therethrough; windings configured to generate a magnetic flux when energized, a flux collector configured to direct the magnetic flux, a pole piece, and a magnetic armature disposed within the housing and coupled to a seal configured to selectively seal a passage that allows fuel vapor to pass to a purge canister. The magnetic armature is configured to move from a first position to a second position when an electric current is applied to the windings.

A shaft outputs a thrust force in an axial direction by using a magnetic flux caused by an electric current flowing through a coil. A housing is made of resin and retains the shaft.

The housing further has a distal portion having an outer circumferential surface defining a depression. The outer circumferential surfaces of the base portion and the distal portion are substantially equal in diameter and are formed continuously.
