Abstract
In order to achieve an enlargement of a seating surface, and to additionally achieve an improvement in productivity while forming this seating surface using a resin layer, without having to sacrifice any of the drive range of the valve body, there is provided a fluid control valve that is formed such that drive force from an actuator is transmitted to a valve body via a plunger, and that controls a flow of a fluid by causing a seating surface of the valve body to move towards or away from a valve seat surface of a valve seat, wherein the valve body is a separate body from the plunger, and the seating surface is formed by a resin layer.
Claims6
A fluid control valve that is formed such that drive force from an actuator is transmitted to a valve body via a plunger using deflection of a diaphragm, and that controls a flow rate of a fluid by causing a seating surface of the valve body to move towards or away from a valve seat surface of a valve seat, wherein
- the valve body is a separate body from the plunger and is a separate body from the diaphragm,
- the fluid control valve is mounted on a block body and a recessed housing portion is provided in the block body,
- the valve seat and the valve body are housed within the recessed housing portion,
- the seating surface faces away from the plunger and is formed by a resin layer,
- in a state in which voltage is not being applied to the actuator, a gap is formed between the seating surface and the valve seat surface, and
- when voltage is applied to the actuator, the valve body is made to approach the valve seat by drive force from the actuator so as to reduce the flow rate.
