A circuit includes a rectifier, e.g., including four diodes; a semiconductor switch; a coil that is chargeable, is dischargeable, and has (a) a first terminal connected to a first output terminal of the rectifier and (b) a second terminal connected via the semiconductor switch to a second output terminal of the rectifier; a first resistor via which a control terminal of the semiconductor switch is connected to the first output terminal of the rectifier; a second resistor connected between the second output terminal of the rectifier and the control terminal of the semiconductor switch; and a discharge unit connected between the second terminal of the coil and the control terminal of the semiconductor switch. The charging and discharging is implemented by, respectively, connecting both of, and disconnecting one or both of, first and second input terminals of the rectifier to/from the voltage source.

Circuit system and method for energizing and discharging a coil

A housing of a pressure-loaded component includes a pressure-loaded channel system which corresponds to the tensile and/or compressive strength properties of the housing material and to the tensile and/or compressive stresses in the housing material during operation of the pressure-loaded component. The housing also includes a channel rounded profile configured to be adapted to include a formed asymmetry. The formed asymmetry is configured to reduce tensile stresses occurring in operation and thus increase the load carrying capacity of the housing as a whole.

A solenoid arrangement comprises a pole tube which is axially subdivided into a pole core section, a transition section, and a tube section. A magnetic flux between the pole core section and the tube section is interrupted by the transition section. An armature is movably guided in the pole tube and has, at its end facing the pole core section, a flange which axially projects from an end face. According to the invention, the pole core section has a stepped depression into which the armature can plunge and which, starting from the transition section, is subdivided into an annular collar, a shoulder, and a notch which is set back axially and radially. An axial dimension of the collar exceeds an axial dimension of the flange.

Solenoid arrangement and valve arrangement

The invention relates to a solenoid wherein a magnetic discontinuity is formed in the pole tube reducing the effective material thickness, such as by reducing the thickness, particularly the wall thickness of the magnetically active material, the front face of the armature facing the pole core and a bottom face in the interior of the pole tube at the pole core each have a contour allowing mutual axial overlapping. This enables advantageous influencing of the force-stroke characteristic curve of the solenoid with low production effort.

A directional control seat valve includes a piston that is biased against a valve seat by means of a spring. The piston is associated with a compensating piston whose end face subjected to the pressure at one of the ports of the directional control valve is arranged before the valve seat when viewed in the closing direction.

A solenoid valve, in particular for limiting the pressure of a fluid, with a flat armature is mounted with an axial gap to a pole core. This pole core is installed in a housing of the solenoid valve and is stressed from both faces with the same fluid pressure.
