Description

  The present invention relates to a valve for performing hydraulic control, which is opened and closed by the operation of a solenoid, and more particularly to a solenoid valve having a structure suitable for downsizing.

  The solenoid valve is configured to open and close by a solenoid operation. Moreover, the structure is such that, for example, as shown in FIG. 1 of JP-A-2001-343081, a valve element is disposed on an extension line in the sliding direction of a movable iron core (plunger), and the movable iron core is interposed via a shaft. Many of them are capable of pressing the valve body. Further, as described in FIG. 1 of JP-A-11-287346, there is also a structure in which the movable iron core directly presses the valve body.

  In any structure, since the fixed iron core, the movable iron core, and the valve body are arranged in series, the total length of the solenoid valve including these is considerably longer than the length of the valve body. Therefore, when miniaturizing the solenoid valve, how to shorten the total length including the solenoid portion becomes a problem.

  When the solenoid part is miniaturized by miniaturizing the movable iron core or the fixed iron core, the amount of magnetic flux flowing through the magnetic circuit also decreases in proportion to this, so the force for holding the valve element also decreases. Therefore, the sealing performance of the part forming the valve is lowered.

Miniaturization can be easily achieved by incorporating a movable iron core or a fixed iron core into the oil flow path. However, if a movable iron core or a fixed iron core having magnetism is placed in oil, contamination in the oil (contaminants such as metal powder = contaminants) adheres to the movable iron core and the like, and the operability gradually decreases. It will be. Therefore, this measure is not a preferred solution.

[First Embodiment]
Hereinafter, a solenoid valve according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing a closed state of a solenoid valve according to a first embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, 10 is a solenoid valve, 20 is a valve body, 21 is an opening adjacent portion, 22 is a flow path component, 23 is a movable iron core, 24 is a fixed iron core, 25 is a coil, 26 is a spring, and 27 is a bobbin. , 28 is a case, 29 is an end case, 30 is a sleeve, 31 is a valve base, 32 is an input port, 33 is an input side flow path, 34a and 34b are branch flow paths, 35a and 35b are grooves, and 36 is an output side flow. , 37 is an output port, 38 is a hydraulic pressure adjusting flow path, 39 is an oil retention space, 40 and 41 are O-rings, and 46 is a washer. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing the opened state of the solenoid valve according to the first embodiment of the present invention. 2 are all the same as those in FIG.

  The solenoid valve 10 according to the first embodiment is a valve having components from the valve body 20 to the O-ring 41, and is suitable for being provided in a hydraulic circuit such as an industrial machine or a construction machine. It is. The configuration of each part will be described below.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the valve body 20 is formed in a cylindrical shape. Further, it is press-fitted into the movable iron core 23 and is in a state of being accommodated in the inner space of the movable iron core 23. Therefore, the outer peripheral surface of the valve body 20 is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the movable iron core 23, and the valve body 20 and the movable iron core 23 slide integrally. Further, when the valve body 20 slides toward the input port 32 side, the valve body 20 covers the entire grooves 35a and 35b, which are openings of the branch flow paths 34a and 34b, and blocks the flow path. That is, the tip of the valve body 20 on the input port 32 side reaches the opening adjacent portion 21 when the valve body 20 slides most toward the input port 32 side. In this state, the grooves 35a and 35b are completely covered with the valve body 20, and a closing function as a valve is exhibited as described later. Further, the end of the valve body 20 on the fixed iron core 24 side is pressed by the spring 26 toward the input port 32. In addition, a part of the flow path structure 22 is provided inside the valve body 20. Therefore, the valve body 20 also has a function as a sleeve interposed between the flow path structure 22 and the movable iron core 23. Further, the valve body 20 is made of a nonmagnetic material and does not adsorb contaminants unlike a magnetic body. As a specific material, stainless steel is most suitable as a material that is non-magnetic, has wear resistance, oil resistance, and heat resistance as a valve body and sufficiently fulfills the function as a sleeve. In addition to the above, the material of the valve body 20 may be iron, aluminum, polyimide organic material, or the like that is not quenched, as a suitable material for the valve body 20. Contamination is more affected when the solenoid valve is downsized. Therefore, even if the valve body 20 is made of a magnetic material, it functions as a solenoid valve. However, in view of the problem of the present invention, it is preferably non-magnetic.

  The valve body 20 shown in FIG. 1 is thinner than the movable iron core 23, but may be thicker than the movable iron core 23. Further, the inner diameter is not limited to that shown in FIG. 1, and the inner diameter may be large so that all the parts of the flow path structure 22 can be accommodated. Further, the length can be appropriately changed as long as it reaches the opening adjacent portion 21 when it slides most toward the input port 32 side. In FIG. 1, the end surface on the input port 32 side and the end surface of the movable iron core 23 are arranged so as to form the same plane. If it reaches 21, for example, a part or all of the end surface on the input port 32 side may be retracted inward from the end surface of the movable iron core 23. In this way, a larger part of the flow path structure 22 can be accommodated in the movable iron core 23, and the size can be further reduced. In any case, the length and arrangement of the valve body 20 are not limited to those shown in FIG.

  The opening adjacent portion 21 is a part of the outer peripheral surface of the flow path structure 22, and is a portion adjacent to the input port 32 side of the grooves 35a and 35b, which are open portions of the branch flow paths 34a and 34b. The width of the opening adjacent portion 21 in the axial direction of the flow path component 22 can be set so that the valve body 20 and the valve base 31 do not collide when the valve body 20 slides most toward the input port 32 side. desirable.

  As described above, the flow path structure 22 is formed with the input port 32, the input side flow path 33, the branch flow path 34a and the branch flow path 34b, the groove 35a and the groove 35b. It constitutes a part of the road. That is, a part of the flow path of the solenoid valve 10 is formed inside the flow path structure 22, one end of the flow path is the input port 32, the other end is the groove 35 a and the groove 35 b, and the oil is It flows from the input port 32 toward the groove 35a and the groove 35b. Moreover, it has the function as a guide and bearing of the valve body 20 together. The outer peripheral surface of the flow path component 22 and the inner peripheral surface of the valve body 20 are in contact with or close to each other while the valve body 20 is slidable. Depending on the design conditions of the solenoid valve 10, a small amount of oil may leak from the gap between the outer peripheral surface of the flow path component 22 and the inner peripheral surface of the valve body 20. This level of leakage is not a problem. In addition, if there is no trouble in exhibiting the function as a valve, the shape of the outer peripheral side of the flow path structure 22 can be appropriately modified according to design needs.

  In addition, a modified example of the flow path structure 22 will be described. FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing a modified example of the flow path structure. In FIG. 6, 45a and 45b are circular grooves, and other symbols are the same as those in FIG. In the flow path structure 22 of FIG. 6, the circumferential groove 45 a and the circumferential groove 45 b are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the flow path structure 22 on the spring 26 side. The circumferential groove 45a and the circumferential groove 45b are formed to alleviate the differential pressure of oil between the oil retention space 39 and the main flow path such as the input side flow path 33. The number of the circumferential grooves formed is not limited to two, and an arbitrary number can be formed. By forming grooves such as the circumferential groove 45a and the circumferential groove 45b, sliding of the movable iron core 23 and the valve body 20 is prevented by the differential pressure of oil between the oil retention space 39 and the main flow path. Can be prevented.

  The movable iron core 23 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and slides in a cylindrical space formed by the fixed iron core 24, the sleeve 30 and the valve base 31. That is, when the coil 25 is energized, a magnetic circuit composed of the fixed iron core 24, the end case 29, the case 28, the valve base 31 and the movable iron core 23 is formed. Then, the movable iron core 23 slides toward the fixed iron core 24 against the force with which the spring 26 presses the valve body 20 and is adsorbed by the fixed iron core 24.

  The movable iron core 23 is formed with a hydraulic pressure adjusting channel 38. The hydraulic pressure adjustment flow path 38 is a pressure difference between the main oil flow path such as the input side flow path 33 and the branch flow paths 34 a and 34 b and the oil retention space 39 between the fixed iron core 24 and the valve base 31. It adjusts and the valve body 20 and the movable iron core 23 are formed in order to help smooth sliding. This flow path is not necessarily formed in the movable iron core 23, but by forming it so as to penetrate the movable iron core 23, a space required when a separate flow path is formed is omitted.

  The fixed iron core 24 forms a magnetic circuit with the end case 29, the case 28, the valve base 31, and the movable iron core 23 when the coil 25 is energized. In this embodiment, the spring 26 also has a function as a base. If the urging force of the spring 26 needs to be increased, a recess for embedding a part of the spring 26 may be provided.

  The coil 25 forms a magnetic circuit including the fixed iron core 24, the end case 29, the case 28, the valve base 31, and the movable iron core 23 by energization.

  The spring 26 is provided in a state where one end is fitted into the fixed iron core 24 and is compressed by the fixed iron core 24 and the valve body 20. Accordingly, the valve body 20 is constantly pressed toward the input port 32 by the urging force of the spring 26. Therefore, unless the coil 25 is energized, the valve body 20 is pressed against the input port 32 and is stably held. The spring 26 may have a shape or structure that presses not only the valve body 20 but also the movable iron core 23. Further, if the valve body 20 is firmly fixed to the movable iron core 23, the spring 26 may press only the movable iron core 23.

  The solenoid valve 10 can be a flow rate adjusting valve having a proportional solenoid by adjusting the urging force of the spring 26. That is, in the so-called control stroke region, the position of the movable iron core 23 can be arbitrarily controlled if the urging force of the spring 26 and the attractive force generated by the current flowing through the coil 25 are balanced.

  The bobbin 27 is wound with a coil 25 and plays a role of arranging the coil 25 at a predetermined portion around the fixed iron core 24 and the like. The case 28 and the end case 29 form a magnetic circuit with the fixed iron core 24, the valve base 31 and the movable iron core 23. The movable iron core 23 slides inside the sleeve 30. The end case 29 is fixed to the case 28 by caulking the end portion of the case 28. The valve base 31 forms an oil passage by forming an output-side passage 36 and an output port 37, and forms a magnetic circuit as described above. Further, the casing of the solenoid valve 10 is configured together with the case 28 and the end case 29. The O-rings 41 and 42 are provided in the annular groove of the fixed iron core 24 and the valve base 31 in order to prevent oil leakage. In addition, the movable iron core 23 and the valve body 20 are formed in a rectangular tube shape, the flow path structure 22 is formed in a rectangular tube shape, and the shapes of the sleeve 30 and the fixed iron core 24 are deformed accordingly. Also good. Furthermore, the movable iron core 23 and the valve body 20 can be formed in other shapes such as an ellipse, and the basic shape only needs to be cylindrical in any case. The washer 46 is provided to prevent the movable iron core 23 from sticking to the valve base 31.

  Further, the oil flow path from the input port 32 to the output port 37 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view showing a detailed configuration of the flow path. 5, 35aa is an output port side portion, 35ab is a fixed iron core side portion, 35ba is an output port side portion, 35bb is a fixed iron core side portion, 44 is a seal portion, and other symbols are the same as those in FIG. is there.

  The oil that has entered from the input port 32 passes through the input side flow path 33 and is divided into a branch flow path 34a and a branch flow path 34b. The branch flow path 34 a continues to a groove 35 a formed on the outer peripheral surface side of the flow path structure 22. The groove 35a is divided into an output port side portion 35aa and a fixed iron core side portion 35ab. The groove 35b following the branch flow path 34b is also divided into an output port side portion 35ba and a fixed iron core side portion 35bb. Therefore, these grooves and the inner peripheral surface of the valve body 20 constitute a part of the flow path.

  It should be noted that the output port side portion 35aa and the fixed iron core side portion 35ab of the groove 35a and the output port side portion 35ba and the fixed iron core side portion 35bb of the groove 35b are branched flow paths 34a in the manufacturing process of the flow path structure 22. The burr formed in the opening of the branch channel 34a and the branch channel 34b after drilling the branch channel 34b is formed, but it is also considered that it becomes a part of the channel. It is formed with. In this embodiment, the groove 35a and the groove 35b are formed so as to extend in a strip shape from the opening portions of the branch flow path 34a and the branch flow path 34b, but the opening of the branch flow path 34a and the branch flow path 34b. Centering on the portion, the flow path structure 22 may be a dent carved into a circular shape, an elliptical shape, or a rectangular shape.

  FIG. 5 shows a state in which the valve body 20 is in contact with the opening adjacent portion 21, and both of the contacts are a seal portion 44 that closes the oil flow path. When the valve body 20 is separated from the opening adjacent portion 21 and slides toward the fixed iron core 24, the fixed iron core side portion 35 ab communicates with the output side flow path 36, so that the oil that has entered from the input port 32 flows into the output port 37. Go out from. Further, when the valve body 20 slides toward the input port 32 and covers the opening adjacent portion 21, the valve body 20 and the opening adjacent portion 21 are again sealed.

  Further, in the groove 35a and the groove 35b, when the valve body 20 is separated from the opening adjacent portion 21 and slides toward the fixed iron core 24, the fixed iron core side portion 35ab, the fixed iron core side portion 35bb, and the hydraulic pressure adjusting flow path 38 are obtained. And the fixed iron core side portion 35ab and the fixed iron core side portion 35bb also communicate with the oil retention space 39. At this time, if there is a differential pressure between the oil staying in the oil retention space 39 of FIG. 1 and the oil flowing through the input side flow path 33, the branch flow path 34a, and the branch flow path 34b, this differential pressure is immediately applied. Is resolved. Therefore, when returning the valve body 20 and the movable iron core 23, it is possible to prevent the sliding of the valve body 20 and the movable iron core 23 from being hindered by such a differential pressure.

  The operation of the solenoid valve 10 according to the first embodiment described above will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, when the coil 25 is not energized, the valve body 20 covers all the grooves 35a and 35b by the pressing force of the spring 26, and the solenoid valve 10 is in a closed state. Yes.

  Next, when the coil 25 is energized, as shown in FIG. 2, a magnetic circuit including the fixed iron core 24, the end case 29, the case 28, the valve base 31 and the movable iron core 23 is formed, and the movable iron core 23 is fixed. Adsorbed on the iron core 24. The valve body 20 slides toward the fixed iron core 24 side so that the groove 35a communicates with the output side flow path 36. From the input port 32, the input side flow path 33, the branch flow path 34a, the groove 35a, and the output side flow Oil flows through all the flow paths to the output port 37 through the path 36 (flows indicated by arrows A and B).

  Further, when the coil 25 is energized, a path from the input port 32 to the input side flow path 33, the branch flow path 34 a, the groove 35 a, the hydraulic pressure adjustment flow path 38, and the oil retention space 39, and from the input port 32 Since the input side flow path 33, the branch flow path 34b, the groove 35b, the hydraulic pressure adjustment flow path 38, and the path to the oil retention space 39 are also communicated, there is no differential pressure between them.

  As described above, in the solenoid valve 10 according to the first embodiment, the cylindrical valve body 20 is accommodated in the cylindrical movable iron core 23, and the flow path component 22 is further included in the valve body 20. Therefore, it is easy to reduce the size of the solenoid valve 10, in particular, to shorten the length from the portion where the input port 32 and the output port 37 are formed to the outer surface of the end case 29. .

  Further, since the valve body 20 has a simple cylindrical shape, all the portions of the corners on the inner peripheral side can be used as portions that contact the opening adjacent portion 21. Therefore, since there is no directionality at the time of assembly of the valve body 20, it is not necessary to perform alignment for directing in a specific direction. Since the valve body 20 is nonmagnetic, contamination is less likely to adhere to the valve body 20. Further, in the portion where the valve body 20 covers the surface of the movable iron core 23, the contamination does not directly adhere to the movable iron core 23. Furthermore, since the shape from the front end to the vicinity of the opening adjacent portion 21 is a cylindrical shape, the flow path structure 22 is easy to process. Therefore, the valve body 20 and the flow path structure 22 can arrange oil flow paths relatively freely, and the degree of freedom in design is increased.

  The configuration shown in FIG. 1 and the like is one embodiment of the present invention, and is not limited to the solenoid valve shown in these drawings. For example, in order to further reduce the size, it is possible to adopt a structure in which the entire flow path component is accommodated in the valve body, and even if a larger portion of the valve base 31 is accommodated in the valve body 20. Good. In short, in the embodiment of the present invention, if the inner diameter of the movable iron core is increased, most of the portions functioning as valves and oil flow paths can be accommodated in the movable iron core.

[Second Embodiment]
Hereinafter, a solenoid valve according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing a closed state of the solenoid valve according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 3, reference numeral 42 denotes a locking portion, and other reference numerals are the same as those in FIG.

  The solenoid valve 10 according to the second embodiment is assembled without pressing the valve body 20 into the movable iron core 23. A locking portion 42 is formed at the end of the movable iron core 23 on the output port 37 side so as to cover the end surface of the valve body 20. Further, the end face of the opening adjacent portion 21 and the end face of the movable iron core 23 do not form the same plane, and the end face of the movable iron core 23 is located closer to the output port 37 than the end face of the opening adjacent portion 21. Yes. Other configurations are the same as those of the solenoid valve 10 according to the first embodiment.

  In the solenoid valve 10 according to this embodiment, when the coil 25 is not energized, the valve body 20 is pressed toward the opening adjacent portion 21 by the pressing force of the spring 26, and the valve body 20 covers the grooves 35a and 35b. The solenoid valve 10 is closed. At the same time, since the end surface of the valve body 20 presses the locking portion 42 of the movable iron core 23, the movable iron core 23 is separated from the fixed iron core 24, and the end surface of the valve body 20 and the locking portion 42 are in contact with each other. Will stop at. In addition, although the latching | locking part 42 is formed in cyclic | annular form in this Example, you may form in the shape which is not cyclic | annular, for example, the nail | claw shape in one place or multiple places of the end surface of the valve body 20.

  Next, when the coil 25 is energized, a magnetic circuit composed of the fixed iron core 24, the end case 29, the case 28, the valve base 31 and the movable iron core 23 is formed, and the movable iron core 23 is attracted to the fixed iron core 24. . If it does so, the movable iron core 23 will slide the valve body 20 to the fixed iron core 24 side in the state which the latching | locking part 42 has latched the valve body 20. FIG. The groove 35a communicates with the output-side flow path 36, and the solenoid valve 10 is opened. When the energization is stopped again, the solenoid 20 is closed by sliding the valve body 20 over the opening adjacent portion 21 by the pressing force of the spring 26, and the movable iron core 23 is separated from the fixed iron core 24. Stop in state.

  As described above, in the solenoid valve 10 according to the second embodiment, the movable iron core 23 slides the valve body 20 while the valve body 20 is locked by the locking portion 42, and the valve body 20 further Since the engaging portion 42 of the movable iron core 23 is pressed and slid, the valve body 20 can be assembled without being pressed into the movable iron core 23. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the size as with the solenoid valve 10 according to the first embodiment, and it is possible to reduce the processing cost of the movable iron core 23 and the valve body 20.

  Further, the gap between the movable iron core 23 and the valve body 20 can be increased by the one shown in FIG. In the case of such a structure, the hydraulic pressure adjusting flow path 38 can be omitted, so that the processing cost of the movable iron core 23 can be further reduced. In this case, in order to suppress the rattling of the movable iron core 23 and the valve body 20, the gap between the movable iron core 23 and the sleeve 30 and the gap between the valve body 20 and the flow path constituting body 22 are reduced. It is necessary to give sufficient consideration so as not to become excessive.

[Third Embodiment]
Hereinafter, a solenoid valve according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing a closed state of the solenoid valve according to the third embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 4, 43 is an O-ring, and other symbols are the same as those in FIG.

  In the solenoid valve 10 according to the third embodiment, a groove that makes one round of this outer peripheral surface is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the flow path structure 22, and an O-ring 43 is fitted in this groove. Other configurations are the same as those of the solenoid valve 10 according to the first embodiment. Therefore, the gap between the valve body 20 and the flow path component 22 is sealed by the O-ring 43, and oil does not flow from the grooves 35a and 35b to the oil retaining space 39 through this gap. Of course, oil does not flow in the opposite direction.
