A 3-way solenoid valve, a vehicle brake system including the 3-way solenoid valve, and a controlling method for the same are disclosed. The present disclosure in at least one embodiment provides a brake system for a vehicle, including one or more wheel cylinders configured to apply braking pressure to each of wheels of a vehicle by using hydraulic pressure, one or more of the 3-way solenoid valve configured to increase or decrease the hydraulic pressure supplied to the one or more wheel cylinders, and a braking device configured to supply the hydraulic pressure to the one or more wheel cylinders by using a stepping force applied to a brake pedal or driving of a hydraulic pump.

The present disclosure relates to a solenoid valve. The solenoid valve includes an armature provided inside the sleeve, a plunger configured to ascend and descend by the operation of the armature, an elastic member configured to press the plunger toward the armature, a magnet core having a through hole in which the plunger and the elastic member are provided and forming an inner space in a longitudinal direction, a valve seat provided in the inner space and on which an orifice penetrating in an axial direction is formed to be opened and closed by the plunger, and a plurality of flow resistance members each including a ring body interposed between the valve seat and the magnet core to generate a flow resistance of a braking fluid, and a slot formed at one side of the ring body to penetrate through the ring body so that the braking fluid passes therethrough.
