A solenoid valve includes a valve portion and a solenoid portion. The valve portion has a sleeve and a valve body. The solenoid portion includes a tubular coil portion, a magnetic yoke having a side surface portion and a bottom portion, a columnar plunger, a shaft, a stator core having a core shaft hole for sliding the plunger in the axial direction, and a base portion having a base shaft hole. In a radial thickness of the sleeve, a thickness of a part corresponding to an end outer peripheral surface is smaller than a thickness of a sliding portion of an inner peripheral surface of the sleeve, which is a portion on which the valve body slides.

An electromagnetic switching device (10) and a method for producing the electromagnetic switching device (10) are disclosed. To this end, a magnetic armature (13) and a pressure pin (19) which is movable in a bearing (21) along an axis (A) are provided. A bearing sleeve (11) accommodates at least the bearing (21) and the magnetic armature (13). An electromagnetic casing (12) and the bearing sleeve (11) are together made of a single material in the form of a one-piece component (100).

A solenoid includes a molded coil having a hole at the center of a coil of a plurality of turns, a solenoid body having a case covering the outer perimeter of the molded coil, a movable plunger inserted in the hole, and a magnetic attraction portion disposed in a direction in which the plunger is moved and attracted by magnetic force produced by the coil, an annular plate adjacent to the coil of the molded coil opposite to the solenoid body, and a sleeve facing the magnetic attraction portion via an air gap and supporting one end of a rod connected to the plunger, in which a magnetic circuit L is formed through the magnetic attraction portion, the case, the sleeve, and the plunger, and back to the magnetic attraction portion, and the plunger has at least one outer edge extension formed by an outer edge portion extended axially.

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).

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).

A solenoid actuator is provided having an armature assembly with a separate joined shunt side bearing consisting of a non-magnetic or slightly magnetic material. The material of the shunt side bearing prevents significant amounts of magnetic flux transferring through the lower bearing area of the armature assembly in the radial direction.

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a pole tube, with two magnetic pole tube parts, for an electromagnet, in particular for a magnetic valve of an automatic transmission in an automobile, including the following steps: (a) arranging the pole tube parts on a centering arbor; and (b), connecting, in particular insert molding and/or casting an outer lateral surface of the pole tube parts; wherein the centering arbor has a radially expandable cylinder surface also closed even in the expanded state. Further, the invention relates to, in particular with the method obtainable, a pole tube, an electromagnet for a magnetic valve, in particular for an automatic transmission in an automobile, having a pole tube according to the invention, and an apparatus for the manufacture of the pole tube.

An electromagnetic actuator having a unitary pole piece arranged within and coupled to a housing is provided. The housing is coupled to the unitary pole piece such that a load on the unitary pole piece is reduced during assembly and/or installation of the electromagnetic actuator. The unitary pole piece is structured to reduce leakage past an armature slidably received within the pole piece.

A solenoid (54) for a solenoid-actuated valve (30) includes a sintered powder metal one-piece core (64) of at least one soft magnetic material and at least one non-magnetic material integrally connected together and a movable armature (88) disposed in the core (64) and having a tapered tip to achieve a required force vs position and current characteristics.

A process component includes a first connection, a second connection, and an adjusting element arranged in a hollow space fluidically connecting the first connection to the second connection and that can be brought into a first position and second position in an axial direction within the hollow space. The component includes a permanent magnet, a first electrical coil, and a second electrical coil arranged in succession in the axial direction to create a simple process component whose size can be effectively scaled. The magnet, adjusting element, and a yoke form a first closed magnetic circuit in the first position and a second closed magnetic circuit in the second position. The first and second coil respectively compensate for the first circuit and the second circuit. The hollow space and adjusting element are shaped such that the valve can be penetrated by a fluid flow formed between the first and second connections.

The disclosure relates to an electromagnetic actuator for actuating a valve. The actuator has a housing, a core and a yoke. A coil body, which carries at least one coil winding, is arranged in the housing. The coil body encloses an armature space at least to some extent. An armature is arranged within the armature space such that it can be moved in its axial direction. A bearing element is arranged on the yoke and has a disc-shaped fastening portion and a tubular bearing portion, which bears the armature. The bearing portion projects inwards from the fastening portion.
