ABSTRACT:
An actuator for controlling the pressure in an internal space defined by a spring-biased diaphragm and a housing by solenoid valve. The internal space is selectively communicated with a negative pressure port or an atmospheric pressure port through a first solenoid valve. The pressure in the internal space is determined by the ratio of a time period in which it is communicated with the negative pressure port to a time period in which it is communicated with the atmospheric pressure port, and the position of the diaphragm is determined accordingly. Another solenoid valve for releasing negative pressure is included for safety. To the housing fixed are a microcomputer for receiving status signals from a vehicle speed sensor, clutch ON/OFF sensor, brake ON/OFF sensor, etc. to generate a solenoid valve opening and closing signal, and a printed board incorporating an electrical driver adapted to energize the solenoid valve in response to said signal. A fluid flowing passage communicating one of the atmospheric pressure port and the negative pressure port with the internal space port is formed between the bottom wall of a housing base and the printed board. Air flowing into and out of the internal space through the fluid flowing passage serves to bring away the heat from the printed board.
