Abstract

Claims (42)

1. A fluid control valve, comprising:

a valve housing provided with an inlet port and an outlet port;

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

a spring configured to urge the valve body in a direction opposite a direction of driving by the drive source,

wherein a valve seat is formed at an edge of a through-flow passage, the valve body and the valve seat forming a poppet valve that controls a flow rate in accordance with a movement of the valve body,

a flow passage on a downstream side of the poppet valve is provided with a reduction region where a flow passage cross-sectional area tends to decrease toward the downstream side,

wherein the valve seat is formed by an annular tilted surface which is tilted with respect to an axial direction and which is formed inside the valve housing,

an inner peripheral surface which is connected continuously and directly to a downstream side edge portion of the annular tilted surface forming the valve seat is formed inside of the valve housing, and

the inner peripheral surface is a parallel peripheral surface which is parallel to the axial direction or a tilted peripheral surface which is tilted toward the valve body from an upstream side to the downstream side.

2. The fluid control valve according to claim 1 ,

wherein a minimum flow passage cross-sectional area of the reduction region is constant regardless of a stroke of the valve body.

3. The fluid control valve according to claim 2 ,

wherein the flow passage cross-sectional area of the reduction region continuously decreases.

4. The fluid control valve according to claim 2 ,

wherein the valve body has a curved shape in a cross-sectional view.

5. The fluid control valve according to claim 4 ,

wherein the annular tilted surface forming the valve seat is formed in a linear shape.

6. The fluid control valve according to claim 1 ,

wherein the flow passage cross-sectional area of the reduction region continuously decreases.

7. The fluid control valve according to claim 6 ,

wherein the annular tilted surface is formed in a valve seat member that is separate from the valve housing, and the tilted peripheral surface is formed in the valve housing when the inner peripheral surface is the parallel peripheral surface.

8. The fluid control valve according to claim 6 ,

wherein the valve body has a curved shape in a cross-sectional view.

9. The fluid control valve according to claim 8 ,

wherein the annular tilted surface forming the valve seat is formed in a linear shape.

10. The fluid control valve according to claim 9 ,

wherein when the inner peripheral surface is the parallel peripheral surface, the reduction region is defined by the annular tilted surface, and

when the inner peripheral surface is the tilted peripheral surface, the reduction region is defined by the tilted peripheral surface.

11. The fluid control valve according to claim 10 ,

wherein annular the tilted surface is formed in a valve seat member that is separate from the valve housing, and the tilted peripheral surface is formed in the valve housing when the inner peripheral surface is the parallel peripheral surface.

12. The fluid control valve according to claim 1 ,

wherein the valve body has a curved shape in a cross-sectional view.

13. The fluid control valve according to claim 12 ,

wherein the annular tilted surface forming the valve seat is formed in a linear shape.

14. The fluid control valve according to claim 13 ,

wherein when the inner peripheral surface is the parallel peripheral surface, the reduction region is defined by the annular tilted surface, and

when the inner peripheral surface is the tilted peripheral surface, the reduction region is defined by the tilted peripheral surface.

15. The fluid control valve according to claim 12 ,

wherein when the inner peripheral surface is the parallel peripheral surface, the reduction region is defined by the annular tilted surface, and

when the inner peripheral surface is the tilted peripheral surface, the reduction region is defined by the tilted peripheral surface.

16. The fluid control valve according to claim 15 ,

wherein the annular tilted surface is formed in a valve seat member that is separate from the valve housing, and the tilted peripheral surface is formed in the valve housing when the inner peripheral surface is the parallel peripheral surface.
