Abstract

An electromagnetically actuated directional control valve has a housing having a chamber, a control slider guided in the housing so as to be longitudinally movable, a restoring device centering the control slider and including a restoring spring and a spring plate, a magnet having an armature which can deflect the slider into a working position against a force of the restoring spring, a pressure tube communicating with the chamber in the housing via a pressure medium and receiving the armature. The pressure tube receives the restoring spring and the spring plate in its interior. The pressure tube also has a support which prevents the spring plate from falling out.
