Abstract

An electromagnetic valve according to one embodiment includes a driven member configured such that a piston and a valve element are vertically coupled with each other and configured such that a pilot passage runs through the driven member. Here, the piston separates a high-pressure chamber from a back pressure chamber. The valve element opens and closes a main valve by moving toward and away from a valve hole. The pilot passage communicates between a low-pressure chamber and the back pressure chamber. A communicating path, through which the high-pressure chamber and the back pressure chamber communicate with each other, is formed in the piston. The communicating path is formed such that an orifice, which is open to the back pressure chamber, and a communication hole, having a larger cross section than that of the orifice, are vertically connected with each other. The orifice is located above the communication hole.
