ACTUATOR
An actuator related to the present invention includes a cylinder that has a tubular shape and is filled with a fluid; a piston that divides the inside of the cylinder into a first chamber and a second chamber in an axial direction of the cylinder, is reciprocable inside the cylinder, and opens and closes a main valve; a fluid supplying device for supplying the fluid to the second chamber; biasing device for biasing the piston in the axial direction toward the second chamber; a flow passage that communicates between the first chamber and the second chamber; and a pilot valve that cuts off the flow passage communicating between the first chamber and the second chamber.
1 . An actuator comprising:
a cylinder that has a tubular shape and is filled with a fluid;
a piston that divides the inside of the cylinder into a first chamber and a second chamber in an axial direction of the cylinder, is reciprocable inside the cylinder, and opens and closes a main valve;
a fluid supplying device for supplying the fluid to the second chamber;
a biasing device for biasing the piston in the axial direction toward the second chamber;
a flow passage that communicates between the first chamber and the second chamber; and
a pilot valve that cuts off the flow passage communicating between the first chamber and the second chamber.
2 . The actuator according to claim 1 ,
wherein an inner wall of the flow passage is formed with a guide portion that gradually changes the flowing direction of the fluid stepwise or continuously.
3 . The actuator according to claim 2 ,
wherein the pilot valve includes a valve body that abuts an opening edge of a hole portion that forms a portion of the flow passage, thereby blocking the opened hole portion, and
wherein the guide portion is formed at least at the opening edge of the hole portion.
4 . The actuator according to claim 3 ,
wherein the guide portion is formed by chamfering processing of C0.4 to 0.6.
5 . The actuator according to claim 1 ,
wherein the pilot valve includes a valve body that abuts an opening edge of a hole portion that forms a portion of the flow passage, thereby blocking the opened hole portion, and
wherein the diameter of the valve body is 3.0 to 5.0 inches.
6 . The actuator according to claim 1 ,
wherein the fluid is supplied to a pressure receiving chamber of the pilot valve so that a pressure of the pressure receiving chamber becomes equal to that of the second chamber,
wherein the pilot valve includes:
a valve body that abuts an opening edge of a hole portion that forms a portion of the flow passage, thereby blocking the opened hole portion; and
a pressure receiving body that is connected to the valve body, is disposed inside the pressure receiving chamber, and presses the valve body toward the hole portion by the pressure of the fluid supplied to the pressure receiving chamber, and
wherein the ratio of the area by which the valve body receives pressure from the fluid of the hole portion to the area by which the pressure receiving body receives pressure from the fluid of the pressure receiving chamber is 0.7 to 0.8.
