  • Edge-compressed tilting armature for a vehicle solenoid valve
    Patent number: 11971115
    Abstract: A tilting armature for a vehicle solenoid valve, including: a ferromagnetic tilting armature for the vehicle solenoid valve which, by establishment of a magnetic field, is configured to move the tilting armature into one of two positions such that a magnetic flux, associated with the magnetic field, through the tilting armature is in the position conducted through at least one surface of the tilting armature across a gap to form a closed flux loop, wherein the tilting armature is tiltable between the two positions about an axis of rotation that is fixed with respect to the vehicle solenoid valve; in which an enlargement of the at least one surface of the tilting armature by an edge upset of the tilting armature is configured to reduce a magnetic resistance through the gap. Also described are a related vehicle solenoid valve and a related method.
