A pilot operated electromagnetic valve comprising: - a body having a lead-in port through which a fluid is led in, a lead-out port through which the fluid is led out, and a main passage joining the lead-in port to the lead-out port; - a metallic driven member integrally formed with both a main valve element and a partition, wherein the main valve element opens and closes a main valve by touching and leaving a main valve seat provided in the main passage and wherein the partition separates the main passage from a back pressure chamber; - a pilot valve element that opens and closes a pilot valve by touching and leaving a pilot valve seat, the pilot valve seat being provided in a sub-passage joining the lead-in port to the lead-out port by way of the back pressure chamber; and - a solenoid including a first iron core, which is displaced integrally with the pilot valve element in a direction of axis line, and a second iron core, which faces the first iron core in the direction of axis line, wherein a pilot passage is formed in such manner as to pass through the driven member, the pilot valve seat is provided at one end side of the pilot passage such that the pilot valve seat protrudes toward the back pressure chamber, and the other end of the pilot passage communicates with the lead-out port, wherein the pilot valve element includes: - a metallic body formed integrally with the first iron core; - a flexible sealing member, fitted on a tip of the body, which touches and leaves the pilot valve seat; and - a stopper, for restricting a displacement of the pilot valve element relative to the driven member in a manner such that the stopper is stopped in the direction of axis line after the sealing member has started to seat on the pilot valve seat, - wherein the lower end part of the body is a valve formation part, wherein the stopper is configured such that a pressure-receiving diameter of the sealing member, which receives a pressure difference between an upstream side and a downstream side of the pilot valve, remains unchanged from when the sealing member comes in contact with the pilot valve seat until when the sealing member has completely seated on the pilot valve seat with the result that the stopper is stopped by the driven member, wherein the sealing member has flexibility so that the pilot valve seat bites in the sealing member, which is elastically deformably pressed by the pilot valve seat, when the pilot valve is closed, wherein, after the sealing member has started seating on the pilot valve seat, the stopper is stopped by an upper end surface of a body, so that the displacement of the pilot valve element caused by the deformation of the sealing member is restricted, characterized in that - a lower end opening part of the valve formation part is swaged inward in the pilot valve element, thereby constituting the stopper and, - a communicating path, which communicates between a space, surrounded by the stopper and the pilot valve seat, and the back pressure chamber, is formed when the stopper is stopped by the driven member. - a body having a lead-in port through which a fluid is led in, a lead-out port through which the fluid is led out, and a main passage joining the lead-in port to the lead-out port; - a metallic driven member integrally formed with both a main valve element and a partition, wherein the main valve element opens and closes a main valve by touching and leaving a main valve seat provided in the main passage and wherein the partition separates the main passage from a back pressure chamber; - a pilot valve element that opens and closes a pilot valve by touching and leaving a pilot valve seat, the pilot valve seat being provided in a sub-passage joining the lead-in port to the lead-out port by way of the back pressure chamber; and - a solenoid including a first iron core, which is displaced integrally with the pilot valve element in a direction of axis line, and a second iron core, which faces the first iron core in the direction of axis line, - a metallic body formed integrally with the first iron core; - a flexible sealing member, fitted on a tip of the body, which touches and leaves the pilot valve seat; and - a stopper, for restricting a displacement of the pilot valve element relative to the driven member in a manner such that the stopper is stopped in the direction of axis line after the sealing member has started to seat on the pilot valve seat, - wherein the lower end part of the body is a valve formation part, - a lower end opening part of the valve formation part is swaged inward in the pilot valve element, thereby constituting the stopper and, - a communicating path, which communicates between a space, surrounded by the stopper and the pilot valve seat, and the back pressure chamber, is formed when the stopper is stopped by the driven member.
