Device for mounting coil assemblies of solenoid valves in electronically controlled brake systems

Abstract

A device for mounting the coil assemblies of solenoid valves in the ECU's housing of an electronically controlled brake system for automobiles is disclosed. When mounting a coil assembly in the ECU's housing using the mounting device of this invention, the coil assembly is received in a cylindrical holder formed at the bottom wall of the ECU's housing. In such a case, two bosses formed on the bobbin of the coil assembly pass through two holes formed at the bottom wall of the ECU's housing, and one of the two bosses is plastically deformed at its lower end projecting outside an associated hole, thus forming a stopper preventing an undesired removal of the coil assembly from the housing. Due to the mounting device of this invention, it is possible to improve work efficiency while mounting the coil assemblies of solenoid valves in the ECU's housing, and so the production cost of the brake systems is reduced.
