Abstract:
1. A linear solenoid for a vehicle, comprising: a coil device that includes: a plunger that is electromagnetically driven by the coil device; and a magnetic stator that forms a magnetic circuit to drive the plunger, wherein: the coil device includes said terminal, which is configured into a strip, as the terminal, and the terminal, which is configured into the strip, is adapted to be directly connected to a terminal of the external device to form a rigid type connection therebetween; the magnetic stator includes: resilient means for resiliently fixing the coil device and the magnetic stator with each other through use of a resilient force of the resin is provided at a location between the coil device and the magnetic stator; the guide has a tongue portion, which is formed by the resin integrally with the guide at a location radially outward of the slit of the yoke and axially extends toward the opening end part of the yoke such that a distal end part of the tongue portion is resiliently bendable while exerting the resilient force; the stator core has a flange portion, which is placed at the opening end part of the yoke and to which the tongue portion is adapted to be resiliently engaged; and the tongue portion is resiliently engaged with the flange portion upon the fitting of the coil device to the stator core to form the resilient means.
