Patent ID: 7954786

Claim:
A solenoid valve assembly, comprising: a solenoid valve body having a passage switching section for switching a fluid passage and a solenoid operation section for operating the passage switching section; and a power feeding system for feeding the solenoid operation section of the solenoid valve body with power; wherein the solenoid valve body has a socket housing at a side surface of the passage switching section, and a socket electrically connected with a coil in the solenoid operation section is accommodated into the socket housing; wherein the power feeding system includes a terminal cover mounted on a side of the solenoid valve body so as to cover the passage switching section and the solenoid operation section, and a power feeding terminal box for holding a pin-shaped power feeding terminal connected with an end of a power feeding line extending into said power feeding terminal box by way of a power feed line insertion hole in the exterior of said terminal cover; wherein the terminal cover includes a terminal box housing for housing the power feeding terminal box at a position corresponding to the socket housing, and a locking stopper formed at a part of the terminal box housing and extending inwardly for locking the power feeding terminal box in said terminal cover; and wherein the power feeding terminal box has a terminal cover support positioned closer to said power feed line insertion hole than is said pin-shaped power feeding terminal when said pin-shaped power feeding terminal is held by said power feeding terminal box, for engaging with the locking stopper to lock the power feeding terminal box in said terminal cover, and after the power feeding terminal box is accommodated into the terminal box housing of the terminal cover from the solenoid valve body side, the terminal cover is mounted on the solenoid valve body, thereby the power feeding terminal electrically connects with the socket, and at the same time the terminal cover support is locked into the locking stopper and the power feeding terminal box is provided in the terminal box housing so as to not pull out.
