Abstract

See full text

A gasket fits between a deck plate and a solenoid valve in a lifter oil manifold assembly. The valve has a planar end surface with valve ports. The gasket has gasket ports for alignment with the valve ports. The gasket further has a planar sealing surface. The planar sealing surface on the gasket surrounds the gasket ports, and abuts the end surface of the solenoid valve fully around the valve ports. The gasket preferably includes a rib structure that extends lengthwise to surround the array of gasket ports. The rib structure is deflectable to the plane of the sealing surface under a clamping force applied to the gasket by the deck plate and the end surface of the valve.
