Instead, a new plunger having a valve body provided at one end is placed inside the casing through the locking portion in the opened state and the through hole in such a direction that the valve body faces the flow port of the core. To be precise, it is inserted into the bobbin).
- the locking portion returns to its original shape and enters a closed state in which passage of the newly inserted plunger is prohibited. That is, at the time of non-operation, the other end of the newly inserted plunger (the end opposite to the one end provided with the valve body) protrudes from the casing to the outside through the through hole and contacts the locking portion. Locked in contact.
- the plunger and the valve body can be easily exchanged. Therefore, various different flow characteristics can be easily realized without changing the entire solenoid valve. Also, internal maintenance can be easily performed.

- the bobbin A body portion housed in the casing; A first extending portion that is integrally formed with the main body portion and extends to the outside of the casing through the through hole;
- This 1st extension part comprises the said latching
- the locking portion is formed of the first extending portion of the bobbin, that is, a portion integrally formed with the main body portion and extending to the outside of the casing through the through hole. . Therefore, it is not necessary to bother to increase the number of parts in order to provide the locking portion. As a result, an increase in the manufacturing cost of the solenoid valve can be avoided.
- the locking part is An arm portion that extends to the outside of the casing along the movement path of the plunger through the through-hole, and the tip side can be bent in a direction away from the movement path of the plunger by the external force; A claw portion that extends substantially vertically from the tip of the arm portion toward the movement path of the plunger, and the tip is interrupted, The claw portion locks the other end of the plunger when the actuator is not operated.

- the claw part is removed from the movement path of the plunger, and the locking part is opened. Thereby, the plunger and the valve body can be detached from the casing (that is, the bobbin) through the locking portion in the open state.
- the arm portion and the claw portion are It returns to its original shape and position and becomes closed. That is, at the time of non-operation, the other end of the new plunger protrudes from the casing through the through-hole and comes into contact with the claw portion to be locked.
- a U-shaped convex cover extends from the bobbin main body to the outside through the through hole in order to lock the plunger.
- the convex cover and the bobbin main body are integrally formed of a plastic material having a certain degree of mechanical strength (difficult to deform).
- the reason why a certain degree of mechanical strength is given to the bobbin body and the convex cover is to stabilize the position of the solenoid coil relative to the casing (yoke and fixed cover) in order to stabilize the shape of the solenoid coil wound around the bobbin body. Further, this is because the plunger is securely locked by the convex cover. For this reason, it is difficult for the U-shaped convex cover to be opened by elastic deformation.
- the through hole includes a main region having a shape substantially corresponding to a cross section of the plunger, and an extension region extended to pass through the arm portion connected to the main region, A gap is provided between the arm portion and the surface of the extension region facing the arm portion at least in the direction in which the arm portion moves away from the movement path of the plunger.
- a gap is provided between the arm portion and the surface of the expansion region facing the arm portion at least in the direction in which the arm portion moves away from the movement path of the plunger. Therefore, as the elastic deformation due to the external force, when the arm portion is bent in a direction away from the movement path of the plunger, the arm portion is opposed to the arm portion in the expansion region from the base connected to the main body portion of the bobbin. Without being hit by the surface to be bent, it is easily bent in a manner that narrows the gap. Therefore, the locking portion can be opened by a smaller external force. As a result, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the arm portion is broken when the locking portion is deformed to open.

Therefore, if an attempt is made to insert the new plunger from the outside of the casing into the inside along the movement path, first, an edge of one end of the new plunger (an end portion on which the valve body is provided) is the claw. It abuts on the tapered surface of the part.
- locking part receives the force which bends the said arm part in the direction away from the movement path
- the arm portion bends away from the movement path of the plunger, the claw portion comes off from the movement path of the plunger, and the locking portion becomes open.

- the locking portion has a plurality of sets including the arm portion and the claw portion. Accordingly, the strength of locking the other end of the plunger is increased when the plunger is not operated.

- the second extending portion and the third extending portion extend to the outside of the casing in parallel with the movement path of the plunger while being in contact with a pair of opposite sides of the yoke lid. That is, the second extending portion and the third extending portion of the bobbin sandwich the yoke lid in the direction in which the pair of sides of the yoke lid are opposed to each other. Therefore, the bobbin (and thus the solenoid coil) and the yoke lid are positioned relative to each other in the direction in which the pair of sides of the yoke lid are opposed to each other. As a result, during the operation, the magnetic flux passing through the yoke, the yoke lid, the plunger, and the core is stabilized, and the accuracy of adjusting the flow rate of the fluid is increased.
- the direction in which the pair of sides of the yoke lid opposes substantially coincides with the direction in which the locking portion receives the external force around the movement path of the plunger.
- the “direction in which the locking portion receives the external force” means an orientation in a plane perpendicular to the movement path of the plunger.
- the direction in which the pair of sides of the yoke lid opposes substantially coincides with the direction in which the locking portion receives the external force around the movement path of the plunger. Therefore, even if the locking portion receives the external force, the bobbin (and thus the solenoid coil) and the yoke lid are positioned relative to each other in the direction of receiving the external force. Therefore, even if the plunger and the valve body are replaced, a problem that the bobbin (and thus the solenoid coil) and the yoke lid are displaced due to the external force is prevented. As a result, the accuracy of the fluid flow rate adjustment during the operation is maintained.
