Abstract
A powered one-way solenoid valve includes a valve cavity defining a one-way valve fluid path. A valve seat is located along the one-way valve fluid path. A valve poppet is configured for reciprocal motion between poppet open and closed positions. When the valve poppet is in the poppet closed position, a valve poppet shoulder selectively contacts the valve seat to substantially occlude fluid flow therepast along the one-way valve fluid path. The valve poppet shoulder includes a resilient annular seal contained within a sealing groove extending circumferentially around the valve poppet shoulder. The sealing groove is cooperatively defined at least partially longitudinally between a distal valve poppet flange of the valve poppet body and an annular poppet collar. The annular poppet collar is a separate piece from the valve poppet body and is maintained proximal to the distal valve poppet flange by a collar flange.
