Title:
VALVE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3772381
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce resistance of a valve for opening and closing a liquefied gas passage of a device utilizing liquefied gas.
SOLUTION: A valve comprises a valve element 1, a valve seat 2, a coil spring 3, a driving force generating part 10 and a control part 11, wherein the valve seat 2 and the coil spring 3 are disposed opposite to the valve element 1, the coil pitches 12, 13 of the coil spring 3 are set to plural values, and when the driving force generating part 10 is operated by the control part 11, the control part 11 is repeatedly operated and then operates the part 1. Accordingly, when compression is small, the load value is determined by the spring constant of the whole of the coil spring 3, and when compression becomes large, the coil pitch A10 of the coil spring 3 closely contacts to lose a spring function, and the load value is determined by a spring constant of the coil pitch B13 which does not closely contact. Accordingly, the spring constant when the valve element 1 is operated is reduced remarkably, and the control part 11 is repeatedly operated and then operated so that the driving force generating part 10 sequentially increase the momentum of the valve element 1 to operate the valve element 1, thereby smoothly operating the valve element keeping its balance with the weight and the coil spring 3.
