  • Patent number: 11761544
    Abstract: A flow control valve in which a needle-shaped valve element is fitted into a valve hole provided in a partition wall partitioning a flow path at an intermediate portion, and the valve element moves in an axial direction of the valve element to control a flow rate of a fluid passing between an outer side surface of the valve element and an inner side surface of the valve hole, the flow control valve includes: a tapered inner side surface that is included in the inner side surface of the valve hole; and a tapered outer side surface that is included in the outer side surface of the valve element, faces the tapered inner side surface from inside, and is inclined along the tapered inner side surface.

  • Publication number: 20190250645
    Abstract: An object is to provide a more compact motor-operated valve than conventional ones. The motor-operated valve according to the present disclosure includes a first housing chamber housing a first valve body, a second housing chamber housing a second valve body, and an intermediate chamber interposed therebetween, which are arranged in a line. A shaft is placed to connect the first valve body and the second valve body. The first valve body is fitted into a first fitting portion in the first housing chamber so as to be linearly movable. The second valve body is fitted into a second fitting portion in the second housing chamber so as to be linearly movable. An inside of the first fitting portion and an inside of the second fitting portion communicate with an inside of the intermediate chamber through an air passage provided in the shaft.

  • Patent number: 10267434
    Abstract: A motor-operated valve includes a motor, a linear-motion shaft which receives power of the motor and is linearly moved and which includes a valve member that opens and closes a valve port formed at an end of a valve body, and an elastic member which is provided in the valve body and which contacts with an outer circumferential surface of the linear-motion shaft and regulates the lateral movement of the linear-motion shaft.

  • Patent number: 10253903
    Abstract: A motor-operated valve includes a base portion which is provided at one end of a stator, a linear-motion shaft which is screwed into a rotor and which is supported by the base portion such that the linear-motion shaft can be moved linearly and cannot be rotated, and a valve member which is provided in the linear-motion shaft and which opens and closes the valve port. A first contacting portion on the rotor and a second contacting portion on the stator or an intermediate member disposed between the rotor and the stator, the first and the second contacting portions and being provided in each of the intermediate member or the stator and the rotor, and contacting with each other in the rotation axis direction of the rotor are biased by a rotor biasing means such that they are pressed onto each other.
