Abstract
The invention relates to a valve body which is provided for a solenoid valve. The valve body is held between two perforated disks whose holes each have a collar. The two perforated disks are connected to form a valve body holder. In order to connect the two perforated disks, each have tongues which project through holes of the respective other perforated disk and are bent over in such a way that they hold the two perforated disks against one another. The tongues protrude obliquely from the valve body holder with their free ends. They serve as springs which are supported against an end wall face of a valve chamber and press against a valve seat lying opposite the end wall face. The invention constitutes a cost-effective design of a valve body which is integral with a valve spring.
