Solenoid valve with improved airflow and method for the production thereof

A solenoid valve, comprising:

• a first connection;
• a second connection;
• a third connection;
• at least one closing part for opening and closing the first connection and the second connection;
• an armature for moving the at least one closing part, wherein the armature extends as a cylinder around the at least one closing part;
• and
• a coil for moving the armature;
• wherein the armature has a portion protruding axially over the at least one closing part, having a passage opening and an axially running side channel to conduct an air flow from the first connection to the third connection.

A method for production of a solenoid valve, the solenoid valve having a first connection, a second connection, a third connection, an armature with a cylindrical interior, and a coil for moving the armature, the method comprising:

• providing the armature with a side channel;
• forming a passage bore through the armature;
• and
• inserting at least one closing part in the armature;
• wherein after the inserting step, the armature has a portion protruding axially over the at least one closing part, and the passage bore is formed in the protruding portion to conduct an air stream from the first connection to the third connection.
