Abstract

A solenoid valve includes a spool valve and a linear solenoid. The spool valve is used inside a hydraulic oil. The linear solenoid includes a resin cylindrical bobbin, a coil, and a case. The solenoid valve further includes a projecting portion, a first terminal, a first coil lead wire, a slit, a first coating portion, and a second coating portion. Each of the first coil lead wire and the second coil lead wire includes an exposed portion. The slit separates an electrical connection between the first terminal and the first coil lead wire from an electrical connection between the second terminal and the second coil lead wire. The first coating portion is formed by coating an entire surface of the exposed portion of the first coil lead wire. The second coating portion is formed by coating an entire surface of the exposed portion of the second coil lead wire.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A solenoid valve for hydraulic control, the solenoid valve comprising:
a spool valve that is used inside a hydraulic oil, the spool valve controlling a pressure of the hydraulic oil; and
a linear solenoid that operates the spool valve to move along an axial direction, wherein
the linear solenoid includes a resin cylindrical bobbin, a coil, and a case,
the resin cylindrical bobbin includes two flanges at both ends of the resin cylindrical bobbin,
the coil is formed of an insulating coated wire that is wound around the resin cylindrical bobbin, and
the case houses the resin cylindrical bobbin and the coil, wherein
the solenoid valve further includes:
a projecting portion that is used for wire connection and protrudes from one of the two flanges of the resin cylindrical bobbin in a protruding direction along the axial direction, the projecting portion including an end surface located outside the case;
a first terminal and a second terminal that are arranged to be away from each other in a plate width direction perpendicular to the protruding direction of the projecting portion, the first and second terminals serving as a pair of connecting terminals for an external equipment;
a first coil lead wire that comes out from the one of the two flanges and extends along the projecting portion, the first coil lead wire including an exposed portion that protrudes from the end surface of the projecting portion and serves as a winding start end of the coil and electrically connected to the first terminal;
a second coil lead wire that comes out from the one of the two flanges and extends along the projecting portion, the second coil lead wire including an exposed portion that protrudes from the end surface of the projecting portion and serves as a winding terminal end of the coil and electrically connected to the second terminal;
a slit that is recessed from a distal end surface of the projecting portion toward a root portion of the projecting portion along the protruding direction, the slit separating an electrical connection between the first terminal and the first coil lead wire from an electrical connection between the second terminal and the second coil lead wire in the plate width direction;
a first coating portion that is formed by coating an entire surface of the exposed portion of the first coil lead wire including the electrical connection between the first terminal and the first coil lead wire with a coating resin; and
a second coating portion that is formed by coating an entire surface of the exposed portion of the second coil lead wire including the electrical connection between the second terminal and the second coil lead wire with a coating resin, and

the first and second coil lead wires including the exposed portions extend outside the slit and are not located inside the slit.

2. The solenoid valve according to claim 1 , wherein
the slit has an entire length that is longer than a length of the exposed portion of the first coil lead wire along the projecting portion and a length of the exposed portion of the second coil lead wire along the projecting portion.

3. The solenoid valve according to claim 1 , wherein
a groove is formed on one side surface of the projecting portion, and
the first and second coil lead wires are arranged to extend, in parallel with the slit, within the groove.

4. The solenoid valve according to claim 3 , wherein
the groove serves as a common groove for the first and second coil lead wires, and
the slit is formed at a center of the groove.
