Abstract

A flow rate control valve in which a valve body can be assembled and removed to a driving source. Where a valve body is assembled to a motor, a moving member is screwed to one end of a rotating shaft, the moving member is inserted into the valve member, the valve member is abutted on a locking portion, the valve member is prevented from coming off from the moving member, the valve member is disposed to an energizing member provided in the body, and the valve body can be assembled to the motor. Where the valve body is removed, the valve member prevented from coming off is pulled out from the body with the moving member, the valve member is removed from the moving member by releasing coming-off prevention of the valve member, further the moving member is removed from the rotating shaft, and the valve body can be removed.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A flow rate control valve, comprising:
a body in which a driving source is mounted;
a rotating shaft provided in the body and rotatable in normal and reverse directions by the driving source;
a valve body which is engaged with one end of the rotating shaft and opens and closes an opening through which a fluid passes by moving along an axial direction of the rotating shaft based on rotation of the rotating shaft; and
an energizing member which energizes the valve body to another end side of the rotating shaft,
wherein the valve body comprises:
a cylindrical valve member which opens and closes the opening; and
a moving member which is movably inserted into the valve member in an axial direction of the shaft, engaged with one end of the rotating shaft, and moves along an axial direction of the rotating shaft based on rotation of the rotating shaft, and
a locking portion is provided by which the valve member is prevented from coming off from the moving member when the valve member abuts on one end of the moving member,
a regulating portion is provided which regulates movement of the valve member to another end side of the rotating shaft when the valve member abuts on another end of the moving member, and
the valve member is energized on another end side of the rotating shaft by the energizing member provided on one end side in the body.

2. The flow rate control valve according to claim 1 , wherein in a state in which the moving member is inserted into the valve member and rotated at a predetermined angle around an axis, the locking portion abuts on one end of the moving member.

3. The flow rate control valve according to claim 1 , wherein, in the body, a regulating member is provided which regulates rotation of the valve body around an axis by being engaged with the valve body, and in a state in which the moving member is inserted into the valve member and rotated at a predetermined angle around an axis, the regulating member regulates rotation around an axis of the valve member.

4. The flow rate control valve according claim 2 , wherein, in the body, a regulating member is provided which regulates rotation of the valve body around an axis by being engaged with the valve body, and in a state in which the moving member is inserted into the valve member and rotated at a predetermined angle around an axis, the regulating member regulates rotation around an axis of the valve member.
