However, in the conventional expansion valve 100, when the ball valve 107 is lifted, there is no member that supports the tip end portion of the actuation rod 106.
As shown in FIG. 6, the actuation rod 106 is tilted, and the lift amount of the ball valve 107 is disturbed (see the graph in FIG. 7: the solid line indicates the time when the ball valve 107 is descending, and the broken line indicates the ball valve 107). Indicates the time of rise). Therefore, since the desired flow rate of the refrigerant cannot be obtained, there is a problem that the performance of the refrigeration cycle is deteriorated. Further, the present inventors have found that when the ball valve 107 is maximally lifted and the refrigerant is flowing at a high flow rate, bubbles generated by rapid expansion when passing between the ball valve 107 and the orifice 105 are generated. It has been discovered that the orifice 105 is eroded when it ruptures due to a small amount of compressive action as it passes between the orifice 105 and the actuation rod 106.

When the erosion phenomenon of the orifice 105 progresses, when the refrigeration cycle is stopped, that is, the ball valve 107.
Even when the valve is in contact with the partition wall 104 and is closed, the high pressure side flow path 10
2 and the low-pressure side flow passage 103 are communicated with each other, the refrigerant flows out from the high-pressure side flow passage 102 to the low-pressure side flow passage 103, and an abnormal noise occurs. As a countermeasure against this, coating the orifice 105 or improving the hardness of the valve body 101 can be considered, but the manufacturing cost increases. It is an object of the present invention to provide an expansion valve that prevents the actuation rod from tilting when the valve body is lifted and prevents erosion of the throttle portion without increasing manufacturing costs.

On the other hand, the liquid refrigerant flowing out from the receiver flows through the refrigerant pipe into the high pressure side flow passage 10 of the expansion valve 1. The liquid refrigerant that has flowed into the high-pressure side channel 10 is adjusted by the adjusting screw 21.
And the flow rate of the refrigerant is controlled by the positional relationship between the orifice 13 and the ball valve 6. And the liquid refrigerant is
A sudden adiabatic expansion occurs between the orifice 13 and the ball valve 6 to generate bubbles, which serve as a gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant. The gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant passes through the communication passage 24 of the guide 9 fixed to the tip end of the actuation rod 8, the low-pressure side flow passage 11, the refrigerant pipe, and flows into the refrigerant evaporator.

Here, as shown in FIG. 2, the ball valve 6
When the lift amount of the refrigerant reaches the maximum and the flow rate of the refrigerant reaches the maximum flow rate, the communication passage 24 of the guide 9 located in the orifice 13
The flow velocity of the refrigerant passing through is also maximum. At this time, a material that withstands local erosion and is harder than the hardness of the valve body 2 (for example, SU
Since the surface of the orifice 13 formed in the brass valve body 2 (inner peripheral edge of the partition wall 12) is covered by the guide 9 made of S), air bubbles are generated when passing through the communication passage 24 in the orifice 13. Even if it ruptures, the surface of the orifice 13 (the inner peripheral edge of the partition wall 12) is not eroded. Further, since the valve body 2 is not made of a material that can withstand local erosion (for example, SUS), an increase in the manufacturing cost of the expansion valve 1 can be suppressed.

As a result, even when the refrigeration cycle is stopped, that is, when the ball valve 6 comes into contact with the seal portion 14 of the partition wall 12 (the expansion valve 1 is closed (see FIG. 1)), the high pressure side passage 1
0 and the low-pressure side flow passage 11 do not communicate with each other, and it is possible to prevent the problem that the refrigerant flows out from the high-pressure side flow passage 10 to the low-pressure side flow passage 11. Further, when the ball valve 6 is maximally lifted, the guide 9 moves downward in the drawing while sliding on the inner circumference of the partition wall 12, so that the actuation rod 8 always moves in the axial direction and the actuation rod 8 is moved.
Does not tilt. As a result, the distance between the ball valve 6 and the orifice 13 becomes stable, so that the refrigerant flow rate is determined according to the lift amount of the ball valve 6, so that the performance of the refrigeration cycle can be prevented from being degraded.

In this embodiment, three arc-shaped communication passages 24 are formed, but the shape and number of the communication passages can be freely changed in design.

【発明の効果】本発明は、弁体が区画壁よりリフトした
時に作動棒が傾くことを防止することができ、且つ膨張
弁の製造コストを上昇させることなく冷媒の高流速時の
絞り部の侵食を防止することができる。
The present invention can prevent the actuating rod from tilting when the valve body is lifted from the partition wall, and can increase the production cost of the expansion valve without increasing the manufacturing cost of the refrigerant. Erosion can be prevented.
