Abstract: According to the invention, a pressure receiving space of a pressure sensor is prevented from being charged. In the pressure sensor, a diaphragm is mounted on a base fixed in a cover to form the pressure receiving space in which oil is sealed. A semiconductor pressure detection device is provided in the pressure receiving space, and adjustment lead pins and an earth-terminal lead pin are connected to terminals of the semiconductor pressure detection device by bonding wires. A wiring substrate is provided with the base of the pressure receiving space interposed and faces the base, and a metal foil is provided such that one or more lead pins of the adjustment lead pins and the earth-terminal lead pin are electrically connected in the wiring substrate. Therefore, the charging of the insulative medium sealed in the pressure receiving space is prevented.

Abstract: Provided is a motor-driven valve with a simple configuration that can solve hysteresis generated when the rotary direction changes, without greatly changing a conventional motor-driving valve. A friction angle of an external thread and an internal thread of a thread feeding mechanism, a lead angle thereof, and a biasing force of a compression coil spring inserted between a valve shaft and a valve body are set so as to always bias the valve shaft making up the thread feeding mechanism to the valve body in a rotating direction in one direction or in the other direction in both of the upward-moving stroke and the downward-moving stroke.

Abstract: Provided is a diaphragm-actuated fluid control valve capable of, even in a region where the pressure difference between the pressures on the upper surface side and the lower surface side of a diaphragm is small, significantly changing the amount of lift of the diaphragm relative to the change in the pressure difference, without reducing the thickness of the diaphragm, and thus is capable of providing a predetermined flow rate and performing stable flow rate control. The control valve has a diaphragm 35 for driving a valve 25. The diaphragm 35 has a mountainous-wave portion 35b formed between an outermost portion 35a and an innermost portion 35c thereof, the mountainous-wave portion having the shape of concentric circles when viewed in a plan view and having N+(0.25 to 0.75) elevated portions that protrude upward or downward when viewed in cross section, where N is a positive integer (1, 2, 3, . . . ).

Abstract: Provided is a variable-capacity compressor control valve where the size of a plunger can be reduced, the machining and assembly process can be simplified, weight reduction can be achieved, and cost reduction can also be achieved, for example. The plunger has a slit through which a valve element is assembled to the plunger by being inserted from a lateral side. The slit serves as a flow path for releasing the pressure Pc in the crank chamber to the suction chamber of the compressor from the Ps inlet/outlet port when the sub valve element has opened the in-valve release passage.

Abstract: Provided is a variable-capacity compressor control valve where a decrease in the sealability or the operability due to shaft misalignment can be effectively suppressed without requiring high dimensional accuracy. The dimensions and the shape of each part are designed such that when the sub valve element closes the in-valve release passage, the tapered portion (sub valve element portion) provided at the lower end portion of the sub valve element enters the release through-hole of the in-valve release passage, and the sub valve element is thus aligned with the main valve element by the tapered portion.

Abstract: Provided is a variable-capacity compressor control valve where a valve body can be easily machined and the machining time and machining cost can be reduced without a decrease in the valve closing property or a decrease in the slidability of the valve element due to shaft misalignment. The valve body includes a support member having formed therein a valve orifice and a guide hole into which the valve element is adapted to be slidably fitted and inserted; and a body member having formed therein a Ps inlet/outlet port, a Pd introduction port, and a Pc inlet/outlet port. The support member is fixedly inserted into a recess hole provided in the body member. In addition, a chip sealing portion (pocket portion) for sealing chips of the body member and/or the support member is provided between the body member and the support member.

Abstract: Provided is a variable-capacity compressor control valve that can suppress a decrease in the efficiency by reducing the amount of leakage in the valve without requiring severe accuracy of the components, avoid possible operation failures, and suppress the influence on the sliding resistance as well as the influence on the control characteristics. A main valve element of a valve element or a valve body is provided with a flexible or elastic sealing member. The sealing member is adapted to, when the valve orifice is closed by the main valve element, abut an end portion on the higher pressure side in a gap between sliding surfaces that is formed between the main valve element and a guide hole into which the main valve element is adapted to be slidably fitted and inserted, and thus seal the gap between the sliding surfaces.

The valve shaft is screwed to a female screw of the female screw member, and is rotated and driven by the rotor, and has a fully opening movable stopper capable of contacting the fully opening fixing stopper.
