Abstract
A solenoid flow control valve includes: an inlet passage that allows an inlet port to communicate with a pilot pressure chamber; an outlet passage that allows the pilot pressure chamber to communicate with an outlet port; a fixed restrictor provided on the outlet passage; a pilot spool that closes the inlet passage when a solenoid is in a non-excitation state, whereas when solenoid is in an excitation state, opens inlet passage at an opening degree corresponding to an input current value to generate a pilot pressure corresponding to the input current value in pilot pressure chamber, the pilot spool opening a bypass passage when input current value is less and closes bypass passage when input current value is greater than or equal to the predetermined value; and a main spool that controls a flow rate from inlet to outlet port in accordance with the pilot pressure chamber's pilot pressure.
