Abstract

Electromagnetic fluid valve regulating the throughflow of a pressure medium which flows through a housing part having at least two inlet openings which lie opposite one another and at least one outlet opening for the pressure medium. It being possible for a channel which is situated between the inlet openings and the outlet opening to be closed to a greater or lesser extent by an axially movable slide for regulating the throughflow of the pressure medium, a pin protruding into the channel centrically with respect to the center axis of the fluid valve, the pin being provided, for flow guidance, with an outer contour which is of at least approximately conical, pyramidal or hyperbolic design, with the result that the pressure medium which is to flow from the inlet openings strikes the outer contour of the pin and diverted in the direction of the at least one outlet opening.

Claims (20)

1. Electromagnetic fluid valve for regulating the throughflow of a pressure medium which flows through a housing part, comprising:

a housing part having at least two inlet openings which lie opposite one another and at least one outlet opening for the pressure medium, and it being possible for a channel which is situated between the inlet openings and the outlet opening to be closed to a greater or lesser extent by means of an axially movable slide for regulating the throughflow of the pressure medium, a pin separate from the slide mounted in a fixed manner inside the channel centrically with respect to the center axis of the fluid valve,

wherein the pin is provided, for flow guidance, and shaped with an outer contour which is one of at least approximately conical, pyramidal or hyperbolic design, with the result that the pressure medium which is to flow from the inlet openings strikes the outer contour of the pin and is diverted in the direction of the at least one outlet opening.

2. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 1 , wherein the pin has an outer contour in the form of a double cone or a single hyperboloid.

3. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 2 , wherein the pin is connected, or screwed, to a damper element in a fixed manner.

4. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 2 , wherein the slide is configured as an inner slide.

5. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 2 , wherein the pin protrudes axially completely beyond the inlet openings.

6. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 5 , wherein the end face of the pin which faces away from the outlet opening has a diameter which corresponds at least approximately to an internal diameter of the movable slide.

7. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 1 , wherein the pin is connected, or screwed, to a damper element in a fixed manner.

8. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 7 , wherein the slide is configured as an inner slide.

9. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 7 , wherein the pin protrudes axially completely beyond the inlet openings.

10. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 9 , wherein the end face of the pin which faces away from the outlet opening has a diameter which corresponds at least approximately to an internal diameter of the movable slide.

11. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 1 , wherein the slide is configured as an inner slide.

12. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 11 , wherein the pin protrudes axially completely beyond the inlet openings.

13. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 12 , wherein the end face of the pin which faces away from the outlet opening has a diameter which corresponds at least approximately to an internal diameter of the movable slide.

14. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 1 , wherein the pin protrudes axially completely beyond the inlet openings.

15. The electromagnetic fluid valve according to claim 14 , wherein the end face of the pin which faces away from the outlet opening has a diameter which corresponds at least approximately to an internal diameter of the movable slide.

16. Electromagnetic fluid valve for regulating the throughflow of a pressure medium which flows through a housing part, comprising:

a housing part having at least two inlet openings which lie opposite one another and at least one outlet opening for the pressure medium, and it being possible for a channel which is situated between the inlet openings and the outlet opening to be closed to a greater or lesser extent by means of an axially movable slide for regulating the throughflow of the pressure medium, a pin separate from the slide mounted in a fixed manner inside the channel centrically with respect to a center axis of the fluid valve, the pin being connected, or screwed, to a damper element in a fixed manner,

wherein the pin is provided, for flow guidance, and shaped with an outer contour which is one of at least approximately conical, pyramidal or hyperbolic design, with the result that the pressure medium which is to flow from the inlet openings strikes the outer contour of the pin and is diverted in the direction of the at least one outlet opening.
