To cause a safety mechanism for an emergency to be activated at lower pressure in comparison with a rupture plate, an accumulator comprises an accumulator housing, a stay having a liquid passage provided in the end surface portion on an end of a stepped tubular portion of the stay, a bellows with a bellows cap, a safety mechanism for pressure drop, and a safety mechanism for an emergency which is structured such that, in an emergency such as a fire, the bellows cap or a member held by the bellows cap presses the stay by high pressure due to the fire in the housing, to buckle the stay at a step of the stepped tubular portion, and open a liquid chamber, wherein a thin portion is provided circumferentially partially at the step of the stay to readily incline the end surface portion of the stay when the stay is buckled.

Accumulator

To prevent plastic deformation of a bellows due to a pressure difference between inner and outer sides of the bellows in an outside gas type or inside gas type accumulator, a disc-like gasket is held in a floatable state to a surface close to a stay in a bellows cap by a gasket holder, so that, the disc-like gasket moves together with the bellows cap at a steady operation time, the disc-like gasket moves together with the bellows cap to contact with an end surface portion of the stay, thereby closing the liquid chamber at a zero-down time, and the bellow cap moves toward a position where liquid pressure and gas pressure balance while the disc-like gasket keeps contacting with the stay due to a difference of pressure receiving areas in both the surfaces when the liquid in the liquid chamber is thermally expanded at a zero-down time.

According to the present invention, a cylindrical member of a solenoid valve is provided with a protruding portion that protrudes in an axial direction of the cylindrical member. By fitting the protruding portion into a vertical groove of a plunger, it is possible to restrict the cylindrical member from moving in a peripheral direction of the plunger. Therefore, it is possible to prevent change of the flow path that passes the plunger and the vertical groove, as well as to prevent variation in a sliding speed of the plunger or the like. As a result, a fluid pulsation reduction effect is obtained.
