Abstract
Abstract An electromagnetic valve uses a solenoid coil to produce a magnetic attraction of a cylindrical shell core against the action of a spring. A valve seat is constituted by a plate of a hard material arranged to cooperate with a circular ridge on an end of the core to obtain an hermetic seal therebetween. The plate is maintained against a bearing surface within a valve housing by a telescoping element located within the shell core and providing a sliding support surface for the shell core.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
124 words
A solenoid valve comprising a body delimiting a chamber, an orifice in said body, a movable magnetic core forming a valve plug that can be displaced under the action of a magnetic field produced by an electrical coil, an electrical coil, at least one valve seat cooperating with said core to control the passage of a fluid between the said chamber and said orifice, said seat being constituted by a non-magnetic washer with a hardness at least equal to that of its support, a support for said washer, and spring means for axially urging said washer against said support, said spring means including a spring and a flanged element subject to said spring, and having a tubular end which is engaged in said body.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
124 words
A solenoid valve comprising a body delimiting a chamber, an orifice in said body, a movable magnetic core forming a valve plug that can be displaced under the action of a magnetic field produced by an electrical coil, an electrical coil, at least one valve seat cooperating with said core to control the passage of a fluid between the said chamber and said orifice, said seat being constituted by a non-magnetic washer with a hardness at least equal to that of its support, a support for said washer, and spring means for axially urging said washer against said support, said spring means including a spring and a flanged element subject to said spring, and having a tubular end which is engaged in said body.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
A valve according to claim 1 wherein said flanged element is engaged in a fluid passage from said body to ensure fluid communication between said passage and an interior space of said movable core.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
A valve according to claim 2 wherein said movable core is mounted to slide on the said flanged element to ensure a guidance of said core.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
68 words
A valve according to claim 3 wherein said valve includes a second valve seat disposed to cooperate with said core to control a second fluid passage, said seat being constituted by a second non-magnetic washer with a hardness at least equal to that of its support, and said flanged element includes two elements which are telescoping to slide one within the other while containing said spring extending therebetween.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
19 words
A valve according to claim 4 wherein each of said two elements has an end engaged in said body.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
43 words
A valve according to claim 4 wherein a support of one of said first-mentioned and said second washers is constituted by a displaceable plug whose position can be regulated so as to adjust the distance between the two seats to the desired value.
