  • Solenoid valve controller
    Patent number: 8091968
    Abstract: A solenoid valve controller includes a control housing having a base provided with projections. Each of the projections has a recess provided therein. At least one elastomer element is arranged between at least two of the projections. A magnet coil yoke abuts the elastomer element and is fixed to at least one of the recesses. The elastomer element drives the magnet coil yoke away from the base and into engagement with an outer side of the hydraulic device when the magnet coil yoke is pressed toward the base by the outer side of the hydraulic device. The magnet coil yoke receives a solenoid valve unit of the hydraulic device therein.
