Abstract
An electromagnetic valve includes a valve compartment inside an end tubular portion of a housing, a valve element provided in the valve compartment and movable to open or close an inlet passage, a support member slidably supporting the valve element, a shaft contacting an end of the valve element to move the valve element, and a pressure release passage extending through a part of the end of the valve element which does not contact the shaft. An inner compartment of the valve element communicates with a drainage passage through the pressure release passage in an open state of the valve element where the inlet passage is open to allow a working fluid flows from an upstream passage to a downstream passage through the inlet passage.
