Abstract

Abstract An electromagnetic solenoid device comprises a plunger loosely fitted in a coil so as to be slidable in the axial direction by the actuation of the coil, wherein the plunger is placed in a through hole of the coil at the side of an end plate which is provided at an end of a yoke and the plunger has an inclined portion for increasing magnetic resistance between an end of the plunger and the end plate.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 104 words
An electromagnetic solenoid device comprising a plunger loosely fitted in a coil so as to be slidable in the axial direction by the actuation of said coil, characterized in that said plunger is placed in a through hole of said coil at the side of an end plate which is provided at an end of a yoke, said plunger having an inclined portion for increasing magnetic resistance between an end of said plunger and said end plate, and wherein a sleeve made of a non-magnetic material is fitted in said through hole and extends over a range in which said plunger is slidingly moved.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 104 words
An electromagnetic solenoid device comprising a plunger loosely fitted in a coil so as to be slidable in the axial direction by the actuation of said coil, characterized in that said plunger is placed in a through hole of said coil at the side of an end plate which is provided at an end of a yoke, said plunger having an inclined portion for increasing magnetic resistance between an end of said plunger and said end plate, and wherein a sleeve made of a non-magnetic material is fitted in said through hole and extends over a range in which said plunger is slidingly moved.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
The electromagnetic solenoid device according to claim 1, wherein said inclined portion is lowered toward a control valve body.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 55 words
The electromagnetic solenoid device according to claim 1, wherein a stationary iron core is fixed inside said coil held by said yoke; said plunger is arranged in the same axial line as said stationary iron core and a coil spring is interposed between said stationary iron core and said plunger to form an air gap.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 27 words
The electromagnetic solenoid device according to claim 1, wherein a spool rod is connected to an end of said plunger and project into a control valve body.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 28 words
The device of claim 1 wherein said sleeve has a smooth, finished inner surface and closely surrounds said plunger whereby said plunger is snugly received in said sleeve.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 30 words
The device of claim 5 wherein said plunger has a groove in a surface thereof facing said sleeve, said groove extending between ends of said plunger in said axial direction.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 13 words
The device of claim 6 wherein said through hole is filled with oil.
