Abstract
A solenoid valve assembly that controls the flow of fluids, such as those in electric, internal combustion engine and/or hybrid vehicles. The solenoid valve assembly may include a casing, a bobbin, a coil, a body, a pole piece, an armature, a spring, a primary seal, a secondary seal, and an electrical connection. In a closed state, the spring pushes the armature downwards against the body, thereby closing the primary seal. In an open state, electrical current is provided to the coil, which creates an electromagnetic field and magnetic flux that magnetically attracts and pulls the armature upwards to the pole piece, against the spring force, such that the primary seal is opened. A low clearance, extended length secondary seal is used in conjunction with the primary seal. The solenoid valve assembly may employ a peak-and-hold technique to maintain the primary seal in the open state, yet do so while drawing a minimum amount of electrical current.
