Solenoid valve structures and systems

Abstract

Abstract HIGH PERFORMANCE, RELIABLE SOLENOID VALVE STRUCTURES AND SYSTEMS ARE DESCRIBED SUITABLE FOR INDUSTRIAL USES AND FOR USE IN A CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENT TO CONTROL THE FLOW OF HIGH PRESSURE AIR FROM AN INLET PORT TO AN OUTLET PORT. THESE SOLENOID VALVE STRUCTURES ARE CAPABLE OF WITHSTANDING HIGH VIBRATIONAL FORCES AND CERTAIN EMBODIMENTS OF BEING SUBMERGED IN SALT WATER, HAVING AN ALL STAINLESS STEEL MAGNETIC CIRCUIT. THE SOLENOID VALVE STRUCTURES INCLUDE A PLUNGER WHICH TOGETHER WITH A VALVE STEM DEFINED THE VALVE, THE PLUNGER BALANCE, FOR HIGH PERSHAPED TO ESTABLISH EXCELLENT PRESSURE BALANCE, FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE RELIABILITY OF THE MAGNETIC CIRCUIT, WHILE THE PLUNGER AND ASSOCIATED OPERATING PARTS CAN BE QUICKLY AND CONVENIENTLY DISASSEMBLED AND REASSEMBLED WITHOUT INJURY TO THE SOLENOID VALVE, TO REMOVE DIRT PARTICLES IF ANY SHOULD INADVERTENTLY ENTER THROUGH THE AIR LINE. THE SOLENOID COIL AND CONNECTIONS MAY BE TOTALLY ENCASED. A HIGH STRENGTH ELECTRICAL CABLE AND WATERTIGHT CONNECTION SYSTEM MAY BE EMPLOYED WITH THE VALVE STRUCTURES ADAPTED TO BE SUBMERGED.
