Abstract

Claims (42)

1. A valve, comprising:

a valve housing in which a port through which a fluid passes is formed;

a valve body configured to be driven by a drive source;

a valve seat on which a contact portion of the valve body is seated;

a biasing member configured to bias the valve body in a valve closing direction of the valve; and

a bellows having a first end portion fixed to the valve body and a second end portion fixed to the valve housing, the first end portion and the second end portion being opposed to each other in an axial direction,

wherein the valve seat is formed of an elastic member which is press-fitted into an annular recessed portion formed in the valve housing,

the annular recessed portion is defined by an annular bottom surface, and an inner annular side wall surface and an outer annular side wall surface which are opposed to each other in a radial direction,

the contact portion of the valve body is formed of an annular projection which is protruded toward the valve seat from a central part of an axially end surface of the valve body on a valve seat side and which has a contact surface formed by a flat tip surface orthogonal to the axial direction, and

the valve body is provided with a through-hole which communicates with a radially inner side space of the contact portion and an inner space of the bellows.

2. The valve according to claim 1 ,

the elastic member is formed to have a modulus of elasticity smaller than a modulus of elasticity of the annular projection.

3. The valve according to claim 2 ,

wherein an inner diameter side end of the elastic member is crimped and fixed.

4. The valve according to claim 2 ,

wherein the elastic member has a rectangular cross section.

5. The valve according to claim 2 ,

wherein the valve body is separately configured to come into contact with and to separate from a rod forming the drive source, and

the rod is biased in a valve opening direction by a rod biasing member.

6. The valve according to claim 2 ,

wherein the biasing member is a compression spring.

7. The valve according to claim 1 ,

wherein an inner diameter side end of the elastic member is crimped and fixed.

8. The valve according to claim 7 ,

wherein the elastic member has a rectangular cross section.

9. The valve according to- claim 7 ,

wherein the valve body is separately configured to come into contact with and to separate from a rod forming the drive source, and

the rod is biased in a valve opening direction by a rod biasing member.

10. The valve according to claim 7 ,

wherein the biasing member is a compression spring.

11. The valve according to claim 1 ,

wherein the elastic member has a rectangular cross section.

12. The valve according to claim 11 ,

wherein the valve body is separately configured to come into contact with and to separate from a rod forming the drive source, and

the rod is biased in a valve opening direction by a rod biasing member.

13. The valve according to claim 11 ,

wherein the biasing member is a compression spring.

14. The valve according to claim 1 ,

wherein the valve body is separately configured to come into contact with and to separate from a rod forming the drive source, and

the rod is biased in a valve opening direction by a rod biasing member.

15. The valve according to claim 1 ,

wherein the biasing member is a compression spring.
