Abstract
An electromagnetic valve assembly of the type having a tube for guiding the plunger armature which tube also supports the surrounding coil unit. A U-shaped yoke surrounds the coil and a housing is provided. The tube, which is attached to a valve casing, has an annular recess at the opposite end for receiving the slotted ring of a ring and nut pair which uses the tube as an abutment for biasing the yoke and the housing towards the valve casing. A lock ring is between the slotted ring and the yoke which has a first lug in a slot of the slotted member and a second lug in a recess in the housing to prevent relative rotation between the slotted ring and the housing.
Claims3
An electromagnetic valve assembly comprising, a valve casing, a tube member attached to said casing at one end thereof and having an annularly shaped recess at the other end thereof, a coil surrounding said tube member, a U-shaped yoke partially surrounding said coil having an upper leg spaced from said recess, a housing surrounding said coil and said yoke, an externally threaded axially slotted ring having an internal bead receivable in said recess, a nut threaded on said ring biasing said housing towards said valve casing, and ring having a pair of axially extending slots on opposite sides thereof.
An electromagnetic valve assembly comprising, a valve casing, a tube member attached to said casing at one end thereof and having an annularly shaped recess at the other end thereof, a coil surrounding said tube member, a U-shaped yoke partially surrounding said coil having an upper leg spaced from said recess, a housing surrounding said coil and said yoke, and externally threaded axially slotted ring having an internal bead receivable in said recess, a nut threaded on said ring biasing said housing towards said valve casing, said housing having flange means engaging said upper yoke leg and forming a circular hole having a radially extending recess, an annuarly shaped lock ring in said hole in engagement with said upper leg yoke, and lug means on said lock ring engaging said slotted ring and said housing to prevent relative rotation therebetween.
