Abstract

Provided are a valve device, an expansion valve, a method for manufacturing a valve device, and a method for manufacturing an expansion valve with which manufacturing costs can be reduced without increasing the number of manufacturing processes. A valve device of a valve main body includes a base surface portion which is a flat surface that is formed by subjecting one side surface of the valve main body to a prescribed cutting process or grinding process, and to which an object to be fixed can be attached, and an adjacent portion adjacent to at least a portion of an edge of the base surface portion, wherein the adjacent portion is not subjected to the prescribed cutting process or grinding process, and has a shape that does not project relative to the base surface portion in a normal line direction of the base surface portion. By having such a valve main body, the amount of material that is cut and discarded during processing is reduced, and since burrs are not formed between the base surface portion and the adjacent portion, a process to remove burrs is not required, and there is thus no increase in the number of processes.

Abstract

[Problem] To provide a motor-operated valve with which variation in the rear of a throttle flow path can be minimized and the desired flow rate characteristics can be obtained. [Solution] A valve body 40 of a motor-operated valve 1 has a control unit 45 having a single tapered shape. The valve body 40 is driven in a movement section between a closed position Pa and a fully open position Pz by the rotation of a stepping motor 66. When the valve body 40 is in the closed position Pa, a control surface 46, which is the outer peripheral surface of the control unit 45, is in contact with a valve seat 16. When the valve body 40 has moved from the closed position Pa and is in the movement section, a throttle flow path is formed between the valve seat 16 and the control surface 46. The movement section includes a first section between the closed position Pa and a first position, and a second section between the first position and a second position. A control device 80 makes the step angle when the valve body 40 is in the first section smaller than the step angle when the valve body 40 is in the second section.

Abstract

[Problem] To provide an electric valve control device and an electric valve device with which any increase in the internal temperature of a motor driver can be minimized. [Solution] When a computer 80 of an electric valve control device 70 receives a valve opening degree change command including a target valve opening degree for an electric valve 5, the computer 80 acquires a target number, which is the number of pulses to be inputted to a motor driver 77 in order to set the valve opening degree of the electric valve 5 to the target valve opening degree. When it is assessed that the temperature surrounding the motor driver 77 is not high, the computer 80 continuously inputs the target number of pulses to the motor driver 77. When it is assessed that the surrounding temperature is high, the computer 80 continuously inputs a unit number of pulses at a time to the motor driver 77 until the number of pulses inputted to the motor driver 77 reaches the target number, and the computer 80 provides a pulse input pause period each time the unit number of pulses are inputted.

Abstract

[Problem] To provide an electric valve capable of obtaining a desired flow rate characteristic without depending on the shape of a valve body. [Solution] A control device 200 of an electric valve 1 stores pulse number information relating to pulse numbers sequentially assigned to positions from a closed position to a fully-opened position of a valve body 40 and step angle information relating to step angles that correspond to the pulse numbers, respectively. The control device 200 receives, from a control unit 400, a valve body movement command relating to a movement target position of the valve body 40. The control device 200 acquires the pulse numbers assigned to positions from the current position to the movement target position of the valve body 40. Then, the control device 200 rotates a stepping motor to a step angle corresponding to each of the pulse numbers in the order of the pulse numbers assigned from the current position to the movement target position of the valve body.

Abstract

[Problem] To provide an electric-operated valve which is capable of reliably detecting magnetic flux generated from a magnet rotor by means of a configuration that uses a relatively small number of components. [Solution] This electric-operated valve (1) has a magnet rotor (41) disposed inside a can (30). On an outer circumferential surface (41a) of the magnet rotor (41), a plurality of N-poles and S-poles are provided side by side in the circumferential direction. Magnetic sensors (35a), (35b) are disposed on the outer circumferential surface (30a) of the can (30) so as to face the magnet rotor (41) in the radial direction across the can (30). Further, when viewed from the direction of rotational axis, the magnetic sensor (35a) is disposed on a straight line (F1) that passes the rotational axis of the magnet rotor (41) and the center of one downward-facing pole tooth (63a) among multiple pole teeth of an upper stator (61).

Abstract

Provided are: a power element that ensure conveyance efficiency of a refrigerant and that can suppress local deformation and the like of a diaphragm; and an expansion valve using the power element. A power element (8) has: a diaphragm (83); an upper lid member (82) that overlaps one surface near the outer circumference of the diaphragm (83) and that forms a pressure operation chamber (PO) between the upper lid member and the diaphragm (83); a reception member (86) that overlaps the other surface near the outer circumference of the diaphragm (83) and that forms a refrigerant inflow chamber (LS) between the reception member and the diaphragm (83); a stopper member (84) that is housed in the refrigerant inflow chamber (LS) and that abuts against the diaphragm (83). The sheet thickness in a center part (83b) of the diaphragm (83) is greater than the sheet thickness near a supporting point of the diaphragm (83).
