ABSTRACT:
A solenoid valve includes a coil, a stator core, a valve member, a coil spring, and a stopper. The coil provides a magnetic field when the coil is energized. The stator core includes a receiving bore, wherein the stator core generates a magnetic attractive force when the coil is energized. The valve member is attracted toward the stator core due to the magnetic attractive force generated by the stator core. The coil spring is received in the receiving bore of the stator core, wherein the coil spring biases the valve member in an opposite direction opposite from the stator core. The stopper positions the coil spring such that an outer peripheral surface of the coil spring is separated from an inner peripheral surface of the receiving bore.
