Abstract

The present invention relates to a variable oil pump control system having a fail-safe function, and a variable oil pump control valve used therefor. The present invention comprises: a variable oil pump for pressure-feeding an oil, which is stored in an oil pan, to an engine; a control valve for controlling the pressure of the oil being discharged to the variable oil pump; a sensor for detecting the state of the oil being pressure-fed to the engine; and a controller for controlling the operation of the control valve in accordance with the state of the oil detected by means of the sensor and vehicle information input from the outside. The control valve operates by means of an electrical signal transmitted from the controller and the oil discharged from the variable oil pump, and thus can prevent the discharge pressure of the variable oil pump from becoming equal to or higher than a maximum set value or equal to or lower than a minimum set value, even if a defect occurs in the control valve.

Abstract

The present invention relates to an oil pump control valve and, specifically, to an oil pump control valve allowing a discharge port and the inside of a solenoid part to communicate with each other through a spool so as to relieve pressure inside the solenoid part. The present invention has a spool flow path, a vent hole, and a spool notch, which are formed so as to allow the solenoid part to communicate with the outside regardless of the flow of fluids when the valve is operated, thereby enabling the internal pressure of the solenoid part to be relieved. In addition, in the present invention, the spool and a rod are integrated such that the axial misalignment of the spool can be prevented and a holder has different diameter such that the flow of fluids can be controlled even during an abnormal power shutdown.

Abstract

A gas control unit for a boiler is provided which can satisfactorily control the supply and shut-off of gas. The gas control unit for a boiler includes: a hollow housing; a solenoid that is disposed in the housing; a rod that is inserted into the solenoid and that has a lower part protruding from the housing; opening and shutting means that is disposed at the lower end of the rod so as to open and shut a gas outlet; and a spring that is disposed between the housing and the opening and shutting means so as to elastically urge the opening and shutting means downward. Here, a coupling member is formed at the lower end of the rod and a coupling groove into which the coupling member is inserted is formed in the opening and shutting means so as to allow the opening and shutting means to move. Accordingly, since the opening and shutting means is coupled to the rod through the use of the coupling member and the coupling groove, the opening and shutting means can move within a predetermined range about the coupling member with an application of an external force. Therefore, even when the opening and shutting means and the gas outlet depart in center from each other, it is possible to shut the gas outlet, thereby satisfactorily controlling the supply and shut-off of gas.

Abstract

Disclosed is a solenoid valve for controlling a high flow rate for direct shift control of an automatic transmission. The solenoid valve includes a holder (110) having inlet and outlet ports (111,112), a residual pressure relief-discharge port (113) and a passageway (114), a spool (120) located in the passageway (114) of the holder (110), a rod (130) closely contacting the spool (120), a plunger (140) surrounding the rod (130), a bobbin (150) surrounding the plunger (140) and having a coil (151 ), a yoke (160) between the bobbin (150) and the holder (110), a core (170), and a case (180). The valve removes resistance to fluid discharge from a chamber (171 ) during plunger movement to enhance responsiveness of a controlled pressure, and allows a fluid to flow into a plunger actuator, thereby suppressing a temperature increase by the coil (151 ) while ensuring a damping function in the plunger actuator.

Abstract

A control device for a clutch drive shaft for 2-wheel/4-wheel drive conversion in a vehicle is disclosed. In forming an upper plate which operates to control the rotation of the clutch drive shaft, each of the components forming the upper plate is secured more firmly, and the components are prevented from becoming separated, for improved reliability. Also, the coupling element for coupling and separating the lower plate and upper plate are made from frictional members, so that the operation for controlling the rotation of the clutch drive shaft may be achieved quickly. According to an embodiment of the invention, the upper plate includes a magnetic first plate and a plastic second plate, where the first plate has a multiple number of coupling holes formed along a circumferential direction, with the coupling holes having detent ledges, and the second plate has a multiple number of coupling parts formed along a circumferential direction, with the coupling parts having detent protrusions. The first plate and the second plate are coupled by detent-fastening the detent protrusions of the coupling parts on the detent ledges of the coupling holes. Also, a shock absorber member made of a rubber material is additionally included, coupled to the second plate of the upper plate. A through-hole having a securing ledge can be formed in a center of rotation of the second plate, and a securing part having a securing protrusion can be formed on a center of rotation of the shock absorber member, so that the securing protrusion of the securing part may be detent-fastened on the securing ledge of the through-hole. Also, the coupling element for the lower plate and upper plate can be formed by frictional members attached to opposing surfaces of the second plate and the lower plate, respectively.
