Abstract:
A solenoid-valve manifold with a feeding mechanism, comprising:a plurality of manifold blocks each having a valve-mounting surface configured to mount a solenoid valve and having a channel configured to supply the mounted solenoid valve with a pressure fluid, said manifold blocks being detachably connected to each other;at least one fixing groove provided on at least one of front and rear surfaces of each of said manifold blocks, and which extend in a connecting direction and are connected to fixing grooves of adjacent manifold blocks;a solenoid valve mounted on the valve-mounting surface of each of said manifold blocks;a power-receiving connector provided for each of said solenoid valves;a connector holder fixed to the at least one fixing groove of said manifold blocks along the at least one fixing groove in such a manner that the fixing position can be freely adjusted;an multipolar connector provided for said connector holder and configured to connect to an external power source;a plurality of distributing connectors provided for said connector holder and connected to said multipolar connector, and which correspond to said plurality of solenoid valves; andsplicers configured to electrically connecting each of said distributing connectors to the power-receiving connector of the solenoid valve,wherein said plurality of distributing connectors are mounted on one connector base plate, and the connector base plate is detachably mounted at said connector holder, andwherein said connector holder has a concave section at a front lower half section thereof configured to fix said multipolar connector and has an inserting hole at a side thereof configured to insert said connector base plate therethrough, and also has a window hole at a front upper half section thereof for disposing the distributing connectors on said connector base plate.
