Description

本発明は、電動弁、および該電動弁を用いた冷凍サイクルシステムに関する。   The present invention relates to an electric valve and a refrigeration cycle system using the electric valve.

従来、パッケージエアコン、ルームエアコン、冷凍機などに用いられる電動弁が知られている(たとえば、特許文献1参照)。この電動弁100においては、図6に示すように、ステッピングモータが駆動してロータ103が回転すると、雌ネジ131aと雄ネジ121aのネジ送り作用により、弁体114が中心軸L方向に移動する。これにより、弁ポート121を開閉する調整がなされ、管継手111から流入して管継手112から流出する冷媒の流量が制御される。   BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, motorized valves used for package air conditioners, room air conditioners, refrigerators, etc. have been known (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). In this motor-operated valve 100, as shown in FIG. 6, when the stepping motor is driven and the rotor 103 rotates, the valve element 114 moves in the central axis L direction by the screw feeding action of the female screw 131a and the male screw 121a. . Accordingly, the valve port 121 is adjusted to be opened and closed, and the flow rate of the refrigerant flowing in from the pipe joint 111 and flowing out from the pipe joint 112 is controlled.

ところで、上述の電動弁100においては、雄ネジ121aと雌ネジ131aとの間の隙間に起因して電動弁100の良好な作動性が得られなくなる恐れがあった。   By the way, in the above-described electrically operated valve 100, there is a possibility that good operability of the electrically operated valve 100 may not be obtained due to the gap between the male screw 121a and the female screw 131a.

たとえば、ブッシュ部材133の貫通孔133aに弁軸141を溶接した際に、図7に示すように、弁軸141が軸芯からずれ、偏った位置に固定されることもあり得る。この場合、雄ネジ121aと雌ネジ131aの噛み合いの隙間が大きければ、ロータ103が偏った軸を中心に回転するため、電動弁100の作動性が阻害され、ロータ103を高い精度で回転させ難くなる。   For example, when the valve shaft 141 is welded to the through hole 133a of the bush member 133, as shown in FIG. 7, the valve shaft 141 may be deviated from the shaft center and fixed at a deviated position. In this case, if the clearance between the male screw 121a and the female screw 131a is large, the rotor 103 rotates around an eccentric shaft, so that the operability of the motor-operated valve 100 is hindered and it is difficult to rotate the rotor 103 with high accuracy. Become.

本発明の目的は、ロータを適正に回転させることができ、高い作動性を有する電動弁、および該電動弁を用いた冷凍サイクルシステムを提供することである。   An object of the present invention is to provide an electrically operated valve that can rotate a rotor properly and has high operability, and a refrigeration cycle system using the electrically operated valve.

この電動弁2では、非磁性体の金属により筒状のカップ形状をなすケース60の開口側の下方に、弁本体30が溶接などにより一体的に接続されている。
Hereinafter, a motor-operated valve according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing a motor-operated valve 2 according to an embodiment. In this specification, “upper” or “lower” is defined in the state of FIG. That is, the rotor 4 is located above the valve body 17.
In the motor-operated valve 2, the valve body 30 is integrally connected by welding or the like below the opening side of the case 60 having a cylindrical cup shape made of non-magnetic metal.

ここで、弁本体30は、ステンレス等の金属から成り、内部に弁室11を有している。また、弁本体30には、弁室11に直接連通するステンレス製や銅製の第1の管継手12が固定装着されている。さらに、弁本体30の下方内側には、断面円形の弁ポート16aが形成された弁座部材16が組み込まれている。弁座部材16には、弁ポート16aを介して弁室11に連通するステンレス製や銅製の第2の管継手15が固定装着されている。   Here, the valve body 30 is made of metal such as stainless steel and has the valve chamber 11 inside. A first pipe joint 12 made of stainless steel or copper, which directly communicates with the valve chamber 11, is fixedly attached to the valve body 30. Further, a valve seat member 16 having a valve port 16a having a circular cross section is incorporated inside the lower part of the valve body 30. A second pipe joint 15 made of stainless steel or copper, which communicates with the valve chamber 11 via the valve port 16a, is fixedly attached to the valve seat member 16.

ケース60の内周には、回転可能なロータ4が収容され、ロータ4の軸芯部分には、ブッシュ部材33を介して弁軸41が配置されている。ブッシュ部材33で結合されたこの弁軸41とロータ4とは、回転しながら上下方向に一体的に移動する。なお、この弁軸41の中間部付近の外周面には雄ネジ41aが形成されている。本実施の形態では、弁軸41が雄ネジ部材として機能している。   The rotatable rotor 4 is housed in the inner circumference of the case 60, and the valve shaft 41 is arranged in the axial center portion of the rotor 4 via the bush member 33. The valve shaft 41 and the rotor 4, which are connected by the bush member 33, integrally move in the vertical direction while rotating. A male screw 41a is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the valve shaft 41 near the middle portion. In the present embodiment, the valve shaft 41 functions as a male screw member.

ここで、ブッシュ部材33は、ステンレス等の金属から成り、中央に弁軸41が貫通する貫通孔33aが形成された円筒状の部材である。ロータ4は、磁性粉を含有するポリフェニレンサルファイド(PPS)等の樹脂材料やフェライト磁石等の磁性を有する素材で形成されている。また、ブッシュ部材33は、ロータ4にインサート成形により固定されている。なお、弁軸41は、ブッシュ部材33の貫通孔33aに弁軸41を貫通させて溶接41cすることにより、ブッシュ部材33に固定される。このように、ロータ4とブッシュ部材33、ブッシュ部材33と弁軸41がそれぞれ固定されることにより、ロータ4の回転が弁軸41に伝達される。   Here, the bush member 33 is a cylindrical member made of a metal such as stainless steel and having a through hole 33a formed at the center thereof through which the valve shaft 41 penetrates. The rotor 4 is made of a resin material such as polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) containing magnetic powder or a magnetic material such as a ferrite magnet. The bush member 33 is fixed to the rotor 4 by insert molding. The valve shaft 41 is fixed to the bush member 33 by penetrating the valve shaft 41 into the through hole 33a of the bush member 33 and welding 41c. In this way, the rotor 4 and the bush member 33 are fixed, and the bush member 33 and the valve shaft 41 are fixed, whereby the rotation of the rotor 4 is transmitted to the valve shaft 41.

ケース60の外周には、図示しないヨーク、ボビン、およびコイルなどからなるステータが配置され、ロータ4とステータとでステッピングモータが構成されている。
ケース60の天井面にはガイド支持体52が固定されている。ガイド支持体52は、円筒部53と、円筒部53の上端側に形成された傘状部54とを有し、全体をプレス加工により一体成形されている。傘状部54はケース60の頂部内側と略同形状に成形されている。
A stator including a yoke, a bobbin, and a coil (not shown) is arranged on the outer periphery of the case 60, and the rotor 4 and the stator constitute a stepping motor.
A guide support 52 is fixed to the ceiling surface of the case 60. The guide support body 52 has a cylindrical portion 53 and an umbrella-shaped portion 54 formed on the upper end side of the cylindrical portion 53, and the whole is integrally formed by press working. The umbrella-shaped portion 54 is formed in substantially the same shape as the inside of the top of the case 60.

弁軸41のブッシュ部材33より下方には、後述するように弁軸41との間でネジ結合Aを構成するとともに弁軸41の傾きを抑制する機能を有する弁軸ホルダ6が、弁本体30に対して相対的に回転不能に固定されている。   Below the bush member 33 of the valve shaft 41, a valve shaft holder 6 that forms a screw connection A with the valve shaft 41 and has a function of suppressing the inclination of the valve shaft 41 as described later is provided. It is fixed so that it cannot rotate relative to.

弁軸ホルダ6は、たとえば、ポリフェニレンサルファイド(PPS)等の樹脂材料で形成されており、摩擦係数を低減させるため添加剤が含有されている。添加材としては、ポリテトラフルオロエチレン(PTFE)等のフッ素系樹脂やカーボンファイバー等が用いられる。   The valve shaft holder 6 is made of, for example, a resin material such as polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), and contains an additive for reducing the friction coefficient. As the additive, a fluororesin such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), carbon fiber or the like is used.

この弁軸ホルダ6は、上部側の筒状小径部6aと下部側の筒状大径部6bと弁本体30の内周部側に収容される嵌合部6cとリング状のフランジ部6fとからなる。そして、弁軸ホルダ6のフランジ部6fは、弁本体30の上端に溶接などで固定されている。また、弁軸ホルダ6の内部には、後述する弁ガイド18を収容する収容室6hが形成されている。   The valve shaft holder 6 includes an upper tubular small diameter portion 6a, a lower tubular large diameter portion 6b, a fitting portion 6c housed on the inner peripheral side of the valve body 30, and a ring-shaped flange portion 6f. Consists of. The flange portion 6f of the valve shaft holder 6 is fixed to the upper end of the valve body 30 by welding or the like. A storage chamber 6h for storing a valve guide 18 described later is formed inside the valve shaft holder 6.

また、この弁軸ホルダ6の筒状小径部6aの上部開口部6gから所定の深さまで下方に向かって雌ネジ6dが形成されている。このため、本実施の形態では、弁軸ホルダ6が雌ネジ部材として機能している。そして、弁軸41の外周に形成された雄ネジ41aと、弁軸ホルダ6の筒状小径部6aの内周に形成された雌ネジ6dとにより、ネジ結合Aが構成されている。   A female screw 6d is formed downward from the upper opening 6g of the cylindrical small-diameter portion 6a of the valve shaft holder 6 to a predetermined depth. Therefore, in this embodiment, the valve shaft holder 6 functions as a female screw member. The male screw 41a formed on the outer circumference of the valve shaft 41 and the female screw 6d formed on the inner circumference of the cylindrical small-diameter portion 6a of the valve shaft holder 6 form a screw connection A.

さらに、弁軸ホルダ6の筒状大径部6bの側面には、均圧孔51が穿設され、この均圧孔51により、筒状大径部6b内の弁軸ホルダ室83と、ロータ収容室67(第2の背圧室)との間が連通している。このように均圧孔51を設けることにより、ケース60のロータ4を収容する空間と、弁軸ホルダ6内の空間とを連通することにより、弁軸ホルダ6の移動動作をスムーズに行うことができる。   Further, a pressure equalizing hole 51 is formed in a side surface of the cylindrical large diameter portion 6b of the valve shaft holder 6, and the pressure equalizing hole 51 allows the valve shaft holder chamber 83 in the cylindrical large diameter portion 6b and the rotor. The storage chamber 67 (second back pressure chamber) communicates with the storage chamber 67. By providing the pressure equalizing hole 51 in this manner, the space for housing the rotor 4 of the case 60 and the space in the valve shaft holder 6 are communicated with each other, so that the valve shaft holder 6 can be smoothly moved. it can.

また、弁軸41の下方には、筒状の弁ガイド18が弁軸ホルダ6の収容室6hに対して摺動可能に配置されている。この弁ガイド18は天井部21側がプレス成形により略直角に折り曲げられている。そして、この天井部21には貫通孔18aが形成されている。また、弁軸41の下方には、さらに鍔部41bが形成されている。   A tubular valve guide 18 is disposed below the valve shaft 41 so as to be slidable with respect to the housing chamber 6h of the valve shaft holder 6. The valve guide 18 has a ceiling portion 21 side bent by press molding at a substantially right angle. A through hole 18a is formed in the ceiling portion 21. Further, below the valve shaft 41, a collar portion 41b is further formed.

ここで、弁軸41は、弁ガイド18に対して回転可能、かつ径方向に変位可能となるように弁ガイド18の貫通孔18aに遊貫状態で挿入されており、鍔部41bは、弁ガイド18に対して回転可能、かつ、径方向に変位可能となるように弁ガイド18内に配置されている。また、弁軸41は貫通孔18aを挿通し、鍔部41bの上面が、弁ガイド18の天井部21に対向するように配置されている。なお、鍔部41bが弁ガイド18の貫通孔18aより大径であることにより、弁軸41の抜け止めがなされている。   Here, the valve shaft 41 is inserted into the through hole 18a of the valve guide 18 in a freely penetrating state so as to be rotatable with respect to the valve guide 18 and displaceable in the radial direction. It is arranged in the valve guide 18 so as to be rotatable and radially displaceable with respect to the guide 18. Further, the valve shaft 41 is inserted through the through hole 18 a, and the upper surface of the collar portion 41 b is arranged so as to face the ceiling portion 21 of the valve guide 18. The flange 41b has a larger diameter than the through hole 18a of the valve guide 18, so that the valve shaft 41 is prevented from coming off.

弁軸41と弁ガイド18とが互いに径方向に移動可能であることにより、弁軸ホルダ6および弁軸41の配置位置に関して、さほど高度な同芯取付精度を求められることなく、弁ガイド18および弁体17との同芯性が得られる。   Since the valve shaft 41 and the valve guide 18 are movable in the radial direction with respect to each other, the valve guide 18 and the valve guide 18 are not required to have a high degree of concentric mounting accuracy with respect to the arrangement positions of the valve shaft holder 6 and the valve shaft 41. Concentricity with the valve body 17 is obtained.

弁ガイド18の天井部21と弁軸41の鍔部41bとの間には、中央部には貫通孔が形成されたワッシャ70が設置されている。ワッシャ70は、高滑性表面の金属製ワッシャ、フッ素樹脂等の高滑性樹脂ワッシャあるいは高滑性樹脂コーティングの金属製ワッシャ、高滑性樹脂を含有する各種樹脂ワッシャなどであることが好ましい。
さらに、弁ガイド18内には、圧縮された弁バネ27とバネ受け35とが収容されている。
A washer 70 having a through hole formed in the central portion is provided between the ceiling portion 21 of the valve guide 18 and the flange portion 41b of the valve shaft 41. The washer 70 is preferably a metal washer having a highly slippery surface, a highly slippery resin washer such as a fluororesin, a metal washer having a highly slippery resin coating, or various resin washers containing a highly slippery resin.
Further, a compressed valve spring 27 and a spring receiver 35 are accommodated in the valve guide 18.

次に、本発明の要点となる電動弁2を構成する部品の寸法関係について説明する。図2は、実施の形態に係る電動弁2のネジ結合A部分の拡大断面図である。図2に示すように、結合A部分における弁軸41の外周には、雄ネジ41aが形成され、弁軸ホルダ6の筒状小径部6aの内周には、雌ネジ6dが形成されている。なお、雌ネジ6dの内径は、雄ネジ41aの外径よりも大きくなるように設計されており、雄ネジ41aのネジ山41m、ネジ谷41vと雌ネジ6dのネジ山6m、ネジ谷6vとの間には、それぞれ径方向にクリアランス66が形成されている。   Next, the dimensional relationship of the parts constituting the motor-operated valve 2 which is the main point of the present invention will be described. FIG. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the screw connection A portion of the motor-operated valve 2 according to the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, a male screw 41a is formed on the outer circumference of the valve shaft 41 in the coupling A portion, and a female screw 6d is formed on the inner circumference of the cylindrical small-diameter portion 6a of the valve shaft holder 6. . The inner diameter of the female screw 6d is designed to be larger than the outer diameter of the male screw 41a. Between them, a clearance 66 is formed in the radial direction.

また、図3は、実施の形態に係る電動弁2において、図1の円B内に示された部分の拡大断面図である。図3に示すように、貫通孔33aに貫通する部分の弁軸41の外周41oにネジは形成されておらず、ブッシュ部材33の貫通孔33aの内周33iと弁軸41の外周41oとの間には隙間34が存在する。この隙間34は、クリアランス66よりも狭く形成されている。すなわち、貫通孔33aの内周径と弁軸41(雄ネジ部材)の外周径との差は、以下の(1)、(2)に示す差のうちいずれか小さい方よりも小さくなるように形成されている。   Further, FIG. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the portion shown in the circle B of FIG. 1 in the motor-operated valve 2 according to the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3, no screw is formed on the outer circumference 41o of the valve shaft 41 in the portion penetrating the through hole 33a, and the inner circumference 33i of the through hole 33a of the bush member 33 and the outer circumference 41o of the valve shaft 41 are separated from each other. There is a gap 34 between them. The gap 34 is formed narrower than the clearance 66. That is, the difference between the inner diameter of the through hole 33a and the outer diameter of the valve shaft 41 (male screw member) should be smaller than the smaller one of the following differences (1) and (2). Has been formed.

(1)弁軸41(雄ネジ部材)の雄ネジ41aの山径(ネジ山41mの外周径)と弁軸ホルダ6(雌ネジ部材)の雌ネジ6dの谷径(ネジ谷6vの内周径)との差
(2)弁軸41(雄ネジ部材)の雄ネジ41aの谷径(ネジ谷41vの外周径)と弁軸ホルダ6(雌ネジ部材)の雌ネジ6dの山径(ネジ山6mの内周径)との差
さらに、図4は、実施の形態に係る電動弁2において、図1の円C内に示された部分の拡大断面図である。図4に示すように、電動弁2において、ケース60の内周60iとロータ4の外周4oの間には、クリアランス66よりも広い隙間68が存在する。すなわち、ケース60の内周径とロータ4の外周径との差は、上述の(1)、(2)に示す差のうちいずれか大きい方よりも大きくなるように形成されている。
(1) Crest diameter of male screw 41a of valve shaft 41 (male screw member) (outer diameter of screw thread 41m) and valley diameter of female screw 6d of valve shaft holder 6 (female screw member) (inner circumference of screw trough 6v) (2) The root diameter of the male screw 41a of the valve shaft 41 (male screw member) (outer peripheral diameter of the screw trough 41v) and the mountain diameter of the female screw 6d of the valve shaft holder 6 (female screw member) (screw). Further, FIG. 4 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a portion shown in a circle C of FIG. 1 in the motor-operated valve 2 according to the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 4, in the motor-operated valve 2, a gap 68 wider than the clearance 66 exists between the inner circumference 60i of the case 60 and the outer circumference 4o of the rotor 4. That is, the difference between the inner diameter of the case 60 and the outer diameter of the rotor 4 is formed to be larger than the larger one of the differences (1) and (2) described above.

この実施の形態に係る電動弁2によれば、ブッシュ部材33の貫通孔33aと弁軸41の間の隙間34を、雄ネジ41aと雌ネジ6dとの間のクリアランス66よりも狭くすることにより、ロータ4の回転時にロータ4が軸芯に対して偏芯することを抑制することができる。よって、ロータ4を適正に回転させることができ、高い作動性を有する電動弁2を提供することができる。   According to the electrically operated valve 2 of this embodiment, the gap 34 between the through hole 33a of the bush member 33 and the valve shaft 41 is made narrower than the clearance 66 between the male screw 41a and the female screw 6d. It is possible to suppress the eccentricity of the rotor 4 with respect to the shaft center when the rotor 4 rotates. Therefore, the rotor 4 can be rotated appropriately, and the electrically operated valve 2 having high operability can be provided.

なお、上述したように、弁軸ホルダ6(雌ネジ部材)は、ポリフェニレンサルファイド(PPS)等の樹脂で形成されているため、摩擦係数が低く耐久性に優れている。一方、一般に射出成形により成形される樹脂製の部品は、射出成形によるヒケや反り等の寸法変形や、線膨張、膨潤等の樹脂成形特有の寸法変化を考慮すると、精密な成形は困難である場合が多い。   As described above, since the valve shaft holder 6 (female screw member) is made of resin such as polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), it has a low friction coefficient and excellent durability. On the other hand, resin parts that are generally molded by injection molding are difficult to precisely mold in consideration of dimensional deformation such as sink marks and warpage caused by injection molding, and dimensional changes peculiar to resin molding such as linear expansion and swelling. In many cases.

このため、樹脂製の弁軸ホルダ6を採用した場合には、雄ネジ41aと雌ネジ6dの噛み合いに生じるクリアランス66が大きくなりやすくなる傾向がある。クリアランス66が大きくなると、図5に示すように、ロータ4だけでなく弁軸41(雄ネジ部材)までもが偏った軸を中心に回転するおそれがある。   Therefore, when the resin-made valve shaft holder 6 is adopted, the clearance 66 generated in the engagement between the male screw 41a and the female screw 6d tends to become large. When the clearance 66 becomes large, as shown in FIG. 5, not only the rotor 4 but also the valve shaft 41 (male screw member) may rotate around an eccentric shaft.

しかしながら、ブッシュ部材33の貫通孔33aと弁軸41の間の隙間34を、雄ネジ41aと雌ネジ6dとの間のクリアランス66よりも狭くすることにより、ロータ4が偏心することを抑制できる。このため、電動弁2において弁軸ホルダ6(雌ネジ部材)を樹脂製とした場合における、作動性に対する影響を低減することができる効果は顕著なものとなる。   However, by making the gap 34 between the through hole 33a of the bush member 33 and the valve shaft 41 narrower than the clearance 66 between the male screw 41a and the female screw 6d, it is possible to suppress the eccentricity of the rotor 4. Therefore, when the valve shaft holder 6 (female screw member) of the motor-operated valve 2 is made of resin, the effect on the operability can be reduced significantly.

また、実施の形態に係る電動弁2によれば、ケース60の内周とロータ4の外周の間の隙間68を広げ、クリアランス66よりも大きくすることにより、ロータ4の回転時にロータ4がケース60の内側に接触し、ロータ4がケース60の内周面に摺動することを防止することができる。したがって、ロータ4を高い精度で適正に回転させることができる。   Further, according to the motor-operated valve 2 according to the embodiment, the gap between the inner periphery of the case 60 and the outer periphery of the rotor 4 is widened to be larger than the clearance 66, so that the rotor 4 can be rotated when the rotor 4 rotates. It is possible to prevent the rotor 4 from coming into contact with the inside of the case 60 and sliding on the inner peripheral surface of the case 60. Therefore, the rotor 4 can be appropriately rotated with high accuracy.

ここで、樹脂製の弁軸ホルダ6を採用した場合、雄ネジ41aと雌ネジ6dとの間のクリアランス66が大きくなることで、図5に示すように、回転軸の軸芯が傾斜し、ロータ4がケース60と接触して(円F内参照)、ロータ4の回転が阻害されることも考えられる。   Here, when the resin-made valve shaft holder 6 is adopted, the clearance 66 between the male screw 41a and the female screw 6d becomes large, so that the axis of the rotary shaft is inclined as shown in FIG. It is also conceivable that the rotor 4 comes into contact with the case 60 (see the circle F) and the rotation of the rotor 4 is hindered.

しかしながら、ケース60の内周とロータ4の外周の間の隙間68(図4参照)を広げ、隙間68をクリアランス66よりも大きくすることにより、弁軸ホルダ6(雌ネジ部材)を樹脂製とした場合であってもロータ4がケース60と接触しないようにすることができる。   However, by widening the gap 68 (see FIG. 4) between the inner periphery of the case 60 and the outer periphery of the rotor 4 and making the gap 68 larger than the clearance 66, the valve shaft holder 6 (female screw member) is made of resin. Even in such a case, the rotor 4 can be prevented from coming into contact with the case 60.

なお、ロータ4とケース60との隙間68の間隔は、過剰に広くする必要性がない。このため、ロータ4とケース60との隙間68を広げても、隙間68を所定の間隔以下に維持することができれば、ロータ4とコイルとのエアギャップを小さく抑えることができ、トルクの減少を低減することができる。   The gap 68 between the rotor 4 and the case 60 does not need to be excessively wide. Therefore, even if the gap 68 between the rotor 4 and the case 60 is widened, if the gap 68 can be maintained below a predetermined gap, the air gap between the rotor 4 and the coil can be suppressed to be small, and the torque can be reduced. It can be reduced.

また、本実施の形態の電動弁2においては、ブッシュ部材33がロータ4とは別々の部材である場合を例に説明しているが、ロータ4とブッシュ部材33は、一つの部材として形成されていてもよい。この場合においても、ロータ4の回転は弁軸41に伝達される。   Further, in the motor-operated valve 2 of the present embodiment, the case where the bush member 33 is a member separate from the rotor 4 has been described as an example, but the rotor 4 and the bush member 33 are formed as one member. May be. Also in this case, the rotation of the rotor 4 is transmitted to the valve shaft 41.

また、本実施の形態の電動弁2においては、弁軸ホルダ6(雌ネジ部材)が樹脂で形成されている場合を例に説明しているが、弁軸ホルダ6は、金属で形成されていてもよい。弁軸ホルダ6が金属製であっても、雄ネジ41aと雌ネジ6dとの間のクリアランス66が大きければ、ブッシュ部材33の貫通孔33aと弁軸41の間の隙間34を狭くすることにより、ロータ回転時にロータ4が軸芯に対して偏芯することを抑制することができる。   Further, in the motor-operated valve 2 of the present embodiment, the case where the valve shaft holder 6 (female screw member) is made of resin has been described as an example, but the valve shaft holder 6 is made of metal. May be. Even if the valve shaft holder 6 is made of metal, if the clearance 66 between the male screw 41a and the female screw 6d is large, the gap 34 between the through hole 33a of the bush member 33 and the valve shaft 41 can be narrowed. It is possible to suppress the eccentricity of the rotor 4 with respect to the shaft center during rotation of the rotor.

なお、本実施の形態の電動弁2は、たとえば、圧縮機、凝縮器、膨張弁、および蒸発器等から成る冷凍サイクルシステムにおいて、凝縮器と蒸発器との間に設けられる膨張弁として用いられる。   The motor-operated valve 2 of the present embodiment is used as an expansion valve provided between the condenser and the evaporator in a refrigeration cycle system including, for example, a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and an evaporator. .
