Abstract

An electromagnetic valve includes a housing, a plunger, a spring, and a solenoid. The housing includes a cylindrical guide member configured to assist axial movement of the plunger, a seat member assembled to the guide member with a valve hole formed therein, a stationary core arranged so as to be opposed to an end portion of the guide member at a predetermined distance away therefrom in an axial direction, and a sleeve coupled, in a liquid-tight manner, to each of an outer circumference of an end portion of the stationary core and an outer circumference of the end portion of the guide member so as to integrally couple the stationary core and the guide member to each other. The plunger has formed therein a communication hole passing through the plunger in the axial direction so as to communicate to a passage (communicating to an inlet port and an outlet port) at one end and to a receiving portion of the spring at the other end, and a path for communicating the communication hole and a space portion formed on an inner side of the sleeve at a position between the end portion of the stationary core and the end portion of the guide member. Accordingly, when the working liquid is caused to flow from the inlet port toward the outlet port, the working liquid is caused to flow into the communication hole through the path, and thus air inside the electromagnetic valve can be discharged to the outside by the working liquid flowing from the passage out of the housing.
