Abstract: The valve has a seat valve with a hollow-conical valve seat and a closing member in the form of a spherical layer on a longitudinally drilled tappet. An inflow bore communicating with a pressure medium inlet discharges centrally into the valve seat. The largely pressure-equalized tappet is engaged by a magnet armature acting on the seat valve in a closing manner and by a restoring spring acting in the opening direction. The valve embodied in principle as a switching valve is controllable into stable intermediate positions on the basis of the following provisions: the cone angle of the valve seat is at most 90.degree.; the force at the closing member, originating in the restoring spring, is adapted such that it has a course that decreases monotonously with an increasing valve opening stroke (h); the magnet circuit of the valve is embodied such that the magnetic force (F.sub.

Abstract: A magnet valve with low noise upon shutoff from the pressure limiting function. The magnet valve has a two-part valve tappet, whose inner valve tappet part has the closing member of a seat valve. The closing member is circumferentially engaged in spaced-apart fashion, forming a gap space, by a tubular portion of the outer valve tappet part. From the gap space, a pressure fluid conduit leads to a control chamber, which is located between the face end, remote from the seat valve, of a magnet armature that cooperates with the valve tappet, and a valve dome. Upon shutoff of the magnet valve, the seat valve changes from its closing position to a partly open position, in which dynamic pressure in the gap space becomes operative and is transmitted through the pressure fluid conduit into the control chamber. The hydraulic force that is operative there on the magnet armature acts counter to the opening forces of the magnet valve and slows down its opening motion.

Abstract: An electromagnetically operated valve which attains an automatic establishment of a reduced flow cross section that is effective after a closing position of the valve. The valve has a magnet armature, longitudinally movable in a valve dome, with a valve tappet for actuation of a seat valve. The seat valve is located in a valve chamber from which pressure fluid conduits, leads to upper and lower face ends of the circumferentially sealed off magnet armature. When the valve is opening from the closing position, an additional force acting in the closing direction upon the magnet armature is generated because of the shaping of the seat valve, and as a result of this additional force the seat valve assumes a partly closed position that is different from its position of repose. The valve is applicable particularly to traction-controlled hydraulic brake systems of motor vehicles.

Abstract: [The aim is to] A solenoid valve which achieves a setting of a reduced flow area which is active after a closed position of the valve is disclosed. The solenoid valve has a seat valve in a valve chamber. A magnet armature for actuating the seat valve is provided on its end face remote from the seat valve with an axially expandable hollow part whose interior, acting as a control chamber, is connected to a valve sub chamber through a pressure fluid channel. A [D]dynamic pressure is generated in the partly open position of the seat valve in the valve subchamber and is capable through expansion of the hollow part in the control chamber of causing a force which acts on the magnet armature against the force of a resetting spring and on the basis of which the seat valve maintains its partly open position. The valve can be used in slip-controlled hydraulic brake systems of motor vehicles.

Abstract: An electromagnetically actuated valve which achieves the setting of a reduced cross section of flow following a closed position of the valve. The solenoid valve has a seat valve which is surrounded by a sleeve which is secured pressure-tightly on a valve body. In the closed position of the seat valve, a tappet engages in the sleeve, forming a small radial gap. From the interior of the sleeve, a first pressure-medium passage leads to an end face of a magnet armature, said end face being remote from the seat valve. Outside the sleeve, a second pressure-medium passage leads to that end face of the magnet armature which is close to the seat valve. In the case of a pressure drop between the pressure-medium inlet and the pressure-medium outlet of the solenoid valve, the seat valve can assume a partially open position following a closed position of said valve since, due to the gap, which acts as a restriction, a pressure disequilibrium arises at the magnet armature and valve opening forces are compensated.

Abstract: A valve having a magnetic armature, which is moved longitudinally in a valve dome; a valve tappet of this armature carries a closing member of a seat valve, which is open when in the rest position. The seat valve is disposed in a valve chamber, from which two pressure fluid conduits lead to face ends of the magnetic armature, which is sealed on its circumference side. When the seat valve is partially open, a pressure is produced in a partial valve chamber by means of a shaping of the valve seat as a hollow cone and of the closing member as a flattened end ball. In the control chamber remote from the closing member, this pressure leads to a movement of the magnetic armature against the tension of a restoring spring, which results in a reduction of the through flow cross section of the seat valve. The valve is particularly useful in slip-controlled hydraulic brake systems of motor vehicles.

Abstract: A hydraulic unit for wheel slip control, which is located between a master cylinder and wheel brake cylinders. Reflection damping devices are installed in main brake lines located between the hydraulic unit and the master cylinder which damp pressure waves that originate at control valves of the hydraulic unit. When the control valves are triggered in the wheel slip control mode the pressure waves are largely kept away from the master cylinder. By the means of length adaptation of the main brake lines, the brake lines can also contribute to the damping.

Abstract: A quiet closure check valve, including a housing having a valve seat toward the housing, a ball is associated with the valve seat to close the valve. The ball is received longitudinally displaceably in a recess of a spring-loaded support element that is defined by a bottom and a collar-like portion. Upon closure of the check valve, the support element rests on the housing, by spring action. The ball is lifted from the bottom of the support element and applied to the valve seat by the pressure of the fluid, in a manner free of spring forces. In this way, bothersome vibration of the ball is avoided.
