Original Abstract Submitted
A solenoid includes: a solenoid unit including a coil and an inner protruding portion covering a periphery of the coil by molded resin; a housing into which the inner protruding portion is inserted; and a sealing element configured to seal a gap between the solenoid unit and the housing. The solenoid unit includes an inclined surface extending in a direction that intersects a direction of insertion of the inner protruding portion into the housing. The housing includes an inclined surface extending in a direction that intersects the direction of insertion. The sealing element is configured to seal the gap by coming into contact with the inclined surface of the solenoid unit and the inclined surface of the housing.
