[0048] Specifically, the second driving body 321 can be a static iron core, the second switching body 322 can be a dynamic iron core, and the second elastic body 329 can be a spring; after the coil is energized, the second driving body 321 has magnetism, the second driving body 321 attracts the second switching body 322, the second switching body 322 overcomes the force of the second elastic body 329, approaches the wall part corresponding to the fifth port 061, and is away from the wall part corresponding to the sixth port 041, until the second opening and closing core 327 and the wall part corresponding to the fifth port 061 abut, when the second opening and closing core 327 and the wall part corresponding to the fifth port 061 abut, the second switching core 328 and the wall part corresponding to the sixth port 041 are separated, realizing that the second air inlet channel 04 and the second channel 021 are conducted, and the second channel 021 and the second exhaust channel 06 are disconnected.

[0050] When the first passage 011 and the first intake passage 03 are conducted, the first passage 011 and the first exhaust passage 05 are disconnected, the second passage 021 and the second intake passage 04 are disconnected, and the second passage 021 and the second exhaust passage 06 are conducted, the gas passes through the first intake passage 03, enters the chamber 100 through the first passage 011, acts on one side of the piston head assembly 22 along the moving direction, so that at least part of the piston head assembly 22 can move along the first direction, and the gas on the other side of the piston head assembly 22 along the moving direction is discharged through the second passage 021 and the exhaust passage; when the second passage 021 and the second intake passage 04 are conducted, the second passage 021 and the second exhaust passage 06 are disconnected, the first passage 011 and the first intake passage 03 are disconnected, and the first passage 011 and the first exhaust passage 05 are conducted, the gas passes through the second intake passage 04, enters the chamber 100 through the second passage 021, acts on one side of the piston head assembly 22 along the moving direction, so that the piston head assembly 22 can move along the second direction, and the gas on the other side of the piston head assembly 22 along the moving direction is discharged through the first passage 011 and the exhaust passage; when the piston rod 21 is located at the second position, specifically, after the gear is located at the second gear, the first passage 011 and the first intake passage 03 are disconnected, the first passage 011 and the first exhaust passage 05 are conducted, the second passage 021 and the second intake passage 04 are disconnected, the second passage 021 and the second exhaust passage 06 are conducted, and the gas in the first gas cavity 001 and the second gas cavity 002 is discharged.

[0051] In actual application, when the piston rod 21 is located at the second position, the gas in the first gas cavity 001 and the second gas cavity 002 is discharged, and the piston head assembly 22 is unbalanced, the piston rod 21 is deflected, and the gear is unstable.

[0052] In the first embodiment, with reference to Figures 1 to 8 , the first passage 011 includes a first part 0111 located in the cylinder body 1, the second passage 021 includes a second part 0211 located in the cylinder body 1, and the second working passage 02 includes a second throttle 07, and the flow area of the second throttle 07 is the minimum flow area of the second working passage 02.

That is, the second part 0211 is processed by drilling on the cylinder body 1 blank. The second throttle port 07 is located in the second part 0211. The size of the drill bit meets the size requirement of the second throttle port 07, and the processing precision is higher. In addition, the first throttle port can be located in the first part 0111. The first throttle port is processed by drilling. The size of the drill bit meets the size requirement of the first throttle port, and the size relationship between the first throttle port and the second throttle port 07 is more precise, thereby realizing more accurate flow control, making the automobile more stable in the neutral gear.

[0054] In addition, the embodiment can also make the piston rod 21 move back and forth between the first position and the third position, that is, the time of switching between the first gear and the third gear of the automobile is closer, and the consistency is higher.

[0055] For example, in the process of moving the piston rod 21 from the third position to the first position in the second direction, the second channel 021 and the second intake channel 04 are connected, the second channel 021 and the second exhaust channel 06 are disconnected, the first channel 011 and the first intake channel 03 are disconnected, the first channel 011 and the first exhaust channel 05 are connected, the gas flows into the chamber 100 through the second intake channel 04 and the second channel 021, and acts on the piston head assembly 22, pushes the piston assembly 2 to move in the second direction, until at least part of the piston head assembly 22 abuts against the first limiting portion 11, that is, the piston rod 21 moves to the first position, realizing the switching from the third gear to the first gear. In the process, the gas flowing into the chamber 100 flows through the second throttle port 07; in the process of moving the piston rod 21 from the first position to the third position in the first direction, the second channel 021 and the second intake channel 04 are disconnected, the second channel 021 and the second exhaust channel 06 are connected, the first channel 011 and the first intake channel 03 are connected, and the first channel 011 and the first exhaust channel 05 are disconnected. The gas flows into the chamber 100 through the first intake channel 03 and the first channel 011, and acts on the piston head assembly 22, pushes the piston assembly 2 to move in the first direction, until at least part of the piston head assembly 22 abuts against the third limiting portion 13, that is, the piston rod 21 is located in the third position, realizing the switching from the first gear to the third gear. In the process, the gas flowing out of the chamber 100 flows through the second throttle port 07, that is, in the process of switching between the first gear and the third gear, the gas flowing into and out of the chamber 100 flows through the second throttle port 07, that is, the flow is controlled through the second throttle port 07, which can reduce the difference in speed of switching between the first gear and the third gear. In actual application, it can make the speed of switching between the first gear and the third gear more close, and the consistency is stronger.

[0056] In the second embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 6 , andFigures 9 to 11 The first passage 011 includes a third portion 0112 which is a gap between a side wall of the first switching body 312 and a wall portion of the first valve cavity 319 corresponding to each other, and the second passage 021 includes a fourth portion 0212 which is a gap between a side wall of the second switching body 322 and a wall portion of the second valve cavity 330 corresponding to each other, and the fourth portion 0212 has a minimum flow passage area which is the minimum flow passage area of the second working passage 02.

[0057] The first passage 011 includes a third portion 0112 which is a gap between a side wall of the first switching body 312 and a wall portion of the first valve cavity 319 corresponding to each other, and the second passage 021 includes a fourth portion 0212 which is a gap between a side wall of the second switching body 322 and a wall portion of the second valve cavity 330 corresponding to each other, and the fourth portion 0212 has a minimum flow passage area which is the minimum flow passage area of the second working passage 02.

[0058] The second passage 021 includes a fourth portion 0212 which is a gap between a side wall of the second switching body 322 and a wall portion of the second valve cavity 330 corresponding to each other, and the fourth portion 0212 has a minimum flow passage area which is the minimum flow passage area of the second working passage 02.

[0059] More specifically, the wall part corresponding to the first valve cavity 319 has a guiding effect on the first switching body 312, so the gap between the wall part corresponding to the first valve cavity 319 and the first side wall 315 cannot be too large. To meet the flow requirement of the first channel 011, the space corresponding to the first groove part 313 can increase the flow of the first channel 011. The wall part corresponding to the second valve cavity 330 has a guiding effect on the second switching body 322, so the gap between the wall part corresponding to the second valve cavity 330 and the second side wall 325 cannot be too large. To meet the flow requirement of the second channel 021, the space corresponding to the second groove part 323 can increase the flow of the second channel 021.

[0060] In some embodiments, the second groove part 323 can be a straight groove with the same groove width and the same groove depth in the extension direction thereof. The size of the space corresponding to the second groove part 323, i.e., the increase or decrease of the groove width and / or the groove depth, can control the flow size of the second channel 021.

[0061] In some embodiments, the second groove part 323 can include a first section 3231 and a second section 3232. The groove width of the first section 3231 is smaller than that of the second section 3232. In the moving direction of the second switching body 322, the length of the first section 3231 is smaller than that of the second section 3232. The groove depth of the first section 3231 is smaller than that of the second section 3232. In the moving direction of the second switching body 322, the length of the first section 3231 is smaller than that of the second section 3232. The side wall of the second switching body 322 includes a throttling section 326, which includes the wall part corresponding to the first section 3231 and at least part of the second side wall 325. The gap between the throttling section 326 and the wall part corresponding to the second valve cavity 330 corresponds to the minimum flow area of the fourth portion 0212, i.e., the size of the space corresponding to the first section 3231, i.e., the groove width and / or the groove depth, so that the flow of the fourth portion 0212 is increased or decreased. In addition, the minimum flow area of the fourth portion 0212 is small, so that the groove width and / or the groove depth of the first section 3231 are small, the length of the first section 3231 is smaller than that of the second section 3232, and the processing is facilitated.

[0062] In the third embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 6 , and Figure 12 , the second throttling port 07 is located in the second exhaust channel 06. Specifically, the first exhaust channel 05 is located in the first driving body 311, the first exhaust channel 05 is located in the first driving body 311, the second throttling port 07 is located in the second exhaust channel 06, and the flow area of the second throttling port 07 is the minimum flow area of the second working channel 02.

[0063] The first exhaust passage 05 can be a through hole, and the second exhaust passage 06 can be a through hole; the second exhaust passage 06 comprises a third section 062 and a fourth section 063, the flow area of the third section 062 is smaller than that of the fourth section 063, the second throttle 07 is located in the third section 062, and the length of the third section 062 is smaller than that of the fourth section 063, facilitating the processing of the second exhaust passage 06.

[0064] Compared with the second embodiment and the third embodiment, the minimum flow area of the second working passage 02 corresponds to a flow port located in the cylinder body 1, that is, the port for throttling is located in the cylinder body 1, which facilitates the use of the same structure on the first valve 31 and the second valve 32, and improves the versatility of the first valve 31 cavity 319 and the second valve 32.
