- the movable iron core 84 is drawn toward the center post 82, that is, toward the left in the axial direction, and the rod member 20 and the valve body 51 fixed to the movable iron core 84 move toward the left in the axial direction, that is, By moving together in the valve opening direction, the seal member 15 of the valve body 51 is separated from the valve seat 10f, and the valve 50 is opened.
- the distal end shaft portion 52 of the valve body 51 contacts the right end shaft portion 16b of the shaft member 16, thereby restricting the further separation of the valve body 51 from the valve seat 10f. .
- an electromagnetic force acts on the valve body 51 to the left in the axial direction, and a force F rod acts to the right in the axial direction (that is, when the right direction is positive, the force F rod- F sol is acting).
- the pressure control valve V1 has the difference (F sp -F p3 ) between the electromagnetic force (F sol ) of the solenoid 80, the biasing force (F sp ) of the coil spring 14, and the force (F P3 ) due to the pressure P3.
- the pressure P2 of the working fluid in the secondary pressure space S2 can be appropriately controlled by the valve opening degree of the valve 50 adjusted by the balance between and.
- the urging force of the first bellows 30 itself and the urging force of the second bellows 60 are exemplified in a form in which the valve body 51 is hardly acted upon.
- the biasing force of 60 itself may act.
- the axially expandable second bellows 60 is positioned between the valve body 51 and the shaft member 16 at the position on the opposite side of the valve body 51 from the valve seat 10f in the axial direction. Therefore, the second bellows 60 can reduce the substantial pressure receiving area where the fluid pressure in the secondary pressure space S2 acts on the valve body 51, and the fluid pressure in the secondary pressure space S2 can be reduced. Therefore, the influence of the force on the valve body 51 can be reduced.
- valve body 51 can be accurately moved in the direction away from the valve seat 10f. Further, since the valve body 51 can be moved in the direction away from the valve seat 10f with a small electromagnetic force, the construction of the solenoid 80 can be reduced. In particular, it is useful when the opening area of the valve hole 10d is formed to be large to control a large flow rate of the control fluid.
- a primary pressure space S1 acting on the valve body 51 is formed by the pressure receiving surface of the valve body 51 (that is, the axially right end surface of the large diameter portion 53) and the pressure receiving surface of the first bellows 30 facing the pressure receiving surface.

- the second bellows 60 has a sealed internal space S4, and the second bellows 60 can expand and contract in the axial direction in that state. According to this, when the second bellows 60 expands and contracts in the axial direction, the structure can be simplified because there is no need for a flow path for taking fluid into and out of the internal space S4. That is, regardless of the surrounding environment where the second bellows 60 is installed, the pressure control valve V1 can be arranged with a high degree of freedom.
- the change in the force acting on the valve body 51 due to the change in the volume of the internal space S4 accompanying the expansion and contraction of the second bellows 60 can be reduced.
- the second bellows 60 when the second bellows 60 is compressed in the axial direction, it is possible to suppress an increase in the fluid pressure in the internal space S4, thereby allowing the second bellows 60 to make a large stroke in the compression direction.
- the force due to the pressure in the internal space S4 acting on the valve body 51 can be made substantially zero.
- the effective pressure receiving area C of the second bellows 60 is equal to the opening area of the valve hole 10 d, that is, the effective pressure receiving area B of the valve body 51 .
- the effective pressure-receiving area A of the first bellows 30 is equal to the effective pressure-receiving area B of the valve body 51 .
- the force due to the fluid pressure in the primary pressure space S1 acting on the valve body 51 is canceled, so the valve body 51 can be moved with high precision regardless of the fluid pressure in the primary pressure space S1.
- the coil spring 14 that urges the valve body 51 to the right in the axial direction is arranged in parallel with the second bellows 60 so as to overlap in the radial direction, the urging force of the coil spring 14 causes the second bellows 60 to move. Axial expansion and contraction can be stabilized.
- the valve housing 10 also includes a cover member 13 and a shaft member 16 to which one end of the second bellows 60 is hermetically fixed and whose axial position relative to the body portion 10A can be adjusted. According to this, by moving the lid member 13 to change the distance from the valve body 51, the expansion/contraction degree of the second bellows 60 and the biasing force of the second bellows 60 can be adjusted at the same time.
- the lid member 13 when changing the distance between the lid member 13 and the shaft member 16 and the valve body 51, the lid member 13 is moved with respect to the main body portion 10A while the rotation of the shaft member 16 is restricted.
- the screwing depth of the cover member 13 can be changed to an arbitrary one by rotating the chisel. By doing so, it is possible to avoid twisting of the second bellows 60 and twisting of the first bellows 30 when changing the distance between the lid member 13 and the shaft member 16 and the valve body 51 .
- the second bellows 60 is rotatable relative to the main body portion 10A of the valve housing 10 due to the above configuration, twisting of the second bellows 60 due to the operation of the valve 50 can be suppressed.
- the internal space S4 is in a vacuum state, it is easy to adjust the biasing force of the coil spring 14 based on the vacuum.
- the coil spring 14 is arranged inside the second bellows 60, the fluid pressure in the secondary pressure space S2 and the flow of the working fluid do not act on the coil spring 14, and the urging force of the coil spring 14 is applied to the valve body 51. can be properly acted on.

- the pressure control valve V2 when the pressure control valve V2 is in a non-energized state, the valve body 51 moves leftward in the axial direction due to the biasing force of the coil spring 140, and the seal member 15 is separated from the valve seat 10f. . That is, the pressure control valve V2 is a normally open type valve.
