Abstract

L'invention concerne une soupape de commande (10), conçue pour le système de freinage d'un véhicule, comprenant un sous-ensemble soupape (14), pourvu d'une armature (32) logée coulissante dans un tube à écoulement de flux (25). Un sous-ensemble solénoïde (12) est monté sur ledit sous-ensemble soupape (14), afin d'amener un flux magnétique à glisser le long de ladite armature (32). Un manchon (33, 206, 465, 501) est ajusté sur cette armature (32), afin de diminuer le frottement entre ladite armature (32) et ledit tube à écoulement de flux (25). Ce manchon (33, 206, 465, 501) est fabriqué dans un matériau de faible frottement. L'invention concerne également un procédé de fabrication du sous-ensemble armature (32) et manchon (32, 206, 465, 501). La soupape de commande (10) de la présente invention présente une hystérèse inférieure à celle des soupapes de commande traditionnelles, et permet d'améliorer les performances du système de freinage d'un véhicule.
