Title:
ROTARY VALVE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/176234
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a rotary valve which uses a sealing member having a shape combining multiple functions, and is capable of preventing a positional shift in the circumferential direction of the sealing member. The rotary valve is equipped with a rotor (1), and a casing (2) having a rotor-storage space (2a) for storing the rotor (1). The rotor (1) is provided with a rotor opening (15) for serving as a channel for a coolant. Openings (25a, 26a) which are capable of connecting to the rotor opening (15) are provided at positions of the inner-circumferential surface of the rotor-storage space (2a) which face the outer-circumferential surface of the rotor (1). A sealing member (77) is positioned so as to extend from the openings (25a, 26a) to the rotor (1). A tip-contact part (80) of the sealing member (77) contacts the rotor (1) and functions as a seal and as a spring. The sealing member (77) is equipped with a rotation-preventing part (85) which is positioned and prevents rotation through engagement of a positioning part (28) provided in the openings (25a, 26a).
