Abstract
A pressure controller has a magnetic coil and a magnetic armature arranged in a housing, a control piston movable in a distributor housing and actuatable by the armature, and a shaft supporting the armature and having two ends facing towards and away from the control piston, where the end facing away from the control piston is slidingly supported in a bearing bush, and the end facing towards the control piston is held by a membrane spring fixed at its periphery to the first-mentioned housing.
Claims6
A pressure controller, comprising
- a housing;
- a magnetic coil arranged in said housing;
- a magnetic armature arranged in said housing;
- a distributor housing;
- a control piston movable in said distributor housing and actuatable by said armature;
- a shaft which supports said armature and is arranged coaxial with said coil, said shaft having two ends which respectively face toward and away from said control piston and are axially and radially supported;
- a bearing bush which is arranged to slidingly support said shaft at its end facing away from said control piston;
- and
- a membrane spring which is arranged to hold said shaft at its end facing toward said control piston and has a periphery held in said first-mentioned housing, so that the ends of said shaft are supported differently with one end of said shaft supported by said bearing bush and the other end of said shaft supported by said membrane spring.
