Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、弁装置用弁座部材および電磁制御弁に関し、特に、ゴム状弾性の弁シート面をなす弁装置用弁座部材および電磁制御弁に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
電磁制御弁等の弁装置において、弁体が当接する弁シート面をなす弁座部材がゴム状弾性体によって構成されたものがある。この弁装置では、弁閉(全閉)時に、弁座面(弁シート面)の弾性変形によって弁座面に弁体を密着させることができ、弁閉時の漏れ流量をなくし、優れた弁締切性能を得ることができる。
【0003】
ゴム状弾性体による弁座部材の弁ハウジングに対する取り付けの従来例を図10、図11を参照して説明する。図10、図11において、101は弁ハウジングを、102はゴム状弾性体製の円環状の弁座部材(ゴム弁座部材)を、103は金属製の円環状の座金部材を各々示している。
【0004】
弁ハウジング101には、弁ポート101Aと、弁ポート101Aより大径で、弁ポート101Aと同心の円環状の凹溝101Bと、凹溝101Bより大径で、凹溝101Bと同心の円環状のかしめ片101Cとが設けられている。
【0005】
ゴム弁座部材102は、凹溝101Bの深さより少し厚い平ゴムパッキン状をなし、凹溝101Bに嵌め込まれる。座金部材103は、弁ハウジング101の凹溝101Bとかしめ片101Cとの間の円環状座面101Dに着座し、内周縁側103Aにて凹溝101Bに嵌め込まれている弁座部材102に当接し、かしめ片101Cによるかしめによって、外周縁側103Bをかしめ片101Cと円環状座面101Dとに挟まれ、弁ハウジング101にかしめ固定される。ゴム弁座部材102は座金部材103の内周縁側103Aより内側に弁座面102Aを画定している。
【0006】
座金部材103のゴム弁座部材102との当接面には円環状突条103Cが形成されており、円環状突条103Cがゴム弁座部材102に喰い込むことにより、ゴム弁座部材102の抜け止めが行われる。
【0007】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
弁体がゴム弁座部材102の弁座面102Aに繰り返し衝突することにより、弁座面102Aが変形すると、制御弁特性値が変化するので、弁座部への要求として、弁漏れがないことに加えて、弁体がゴム弁座部材102の弁座面102Aに繰り返し衝突することによる弁座面102Aの変形に対しての耐久性を要求される。
【0008】
このため、ゴム弁座部材102は、ゴム硬度が比較的高く、厚さが薄いものを選定される。厚さが薄い弁座部材102は、変形し易く、ゴム弁座部材102に成型時のばりがあると、ゴム弁座部材102を凹溝101Bにうまく組み込めず、図11に示されているように、弁座面102Aに浮き上がりが生じることがある。
【0009】
また、座金部材103のかしめ時に、座金部材103が、ずれたり、変形したりすると、円環状突条103Cがゴム弁座部材102に喰い込んでいるため、座金部材103のずれや変形に応じてゴム弁座部材102が撓み、このようなことによっても、弁座面102Aに図11に示されているような浮き上がりが生じることがある。
【0010】
弁座面102Aに浮き上がりが生じると、弁閉時に弁体が弁座面102Aに均一に当接しなくなる。弁座面102Aはゴム状弾性を有しているから、弁閉時に弁体が弁座面102Aに均一に当接しなくても、弁座面102Aの弾性変形によって、ある程度は弁漏れを防ぐことができるが、しかし、弁漏れを完全になくすことは難しい。
【0011】
燃料電池システムにおいて、水素ガスの流量を制御するような流量制御弁では、弁漏れがなく、高度な締切性能を要求されるが、上述のような弁座面102Aの浮き上がりが生じると、その要求性能を満たすことが困難になる。また、ゴム弁座部材102は、細かな部品であり、弁座面102Aに傷を付けないように弁ハウジング101の凹溝101Bに組み込まなくてはならないが、このことは非常に難しい。
【0012】
この発明は、上述の如き問題点を解消するためになされたもので、組付性に優れ、正常状態で組み付けられることを保証し、弁漏れがなく、安定した高度な締切性能を確保でき、併せて部品点数の削減を図ることができる弁装置用弁座部材、および、その弁装置用弁座部材を組み込まれた電磁制御弁を提供することを目的としている。
【0013】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上述の目的を達成するために、この発明による弁装置用弁座部材は、金属製円環部材と、前記金属製円環部材に接着されたゴム状弾性部材とを有し、前記金属製円環部材は前記ゴム状弾性部材より外周側に位置する最外周円環部を含み、当該最外周円環部が弁ハウジングに対する締結固定部をなし、前記ゴム状弾性部材の一方の面が弁ハウジングの取付面に対する気密シール面をなし、当該ゴム状弾性部材の他方の面が弁座面をなしている。
【0014】
この発明による弁装置用弁座部材は、弁座面をなすゴム状弾性部材と金属製円環部材との接着接合体をなし、ゴム状弾性部材より外周側に位置する最外周円環部によって弁ハウジングに対する締結固定がかしめ等により行われる。これにより、かしめ等による締結固定力が弁座部材のゴム状弾性部材に不規則に作用し難くなり、弁座部材の弁ハウジングに対する締結固定が容易に安定して行われ得るようになり、組付状態でゴム状弾性部材に不健全な変形をもたらすことを回避できる。
【0015】
この発明による弁装置用弁座部材では、ゴム状弾性部材は、金属製円環部材とのインサート成型によって金属製円環部材に、加硫接着あるいはそれに相当するゴム成型時の反応による接着、すなわち成型充填接着され、特別な接着剤を用いることなく、安定した接着強度によるゴム状弾性部材と金属製円環部材との接着接合体を得ることができる。
【0016】
この発明による弁装置用弁座部材は、好ましくは、前記ゴム状弾性部材の気密シール面に円環状の密着シール用突条が突出形成され、また、前記ゴム状弾性部材の弁座面に円環状の弁体当たり用突条が突出形成されている。
【0017】
また、この発明による弁装置用弁座部材は、好ましくは、前記金属製円環部材は、前記ゴム状弾性部材より内周側に位置する最内周円環部と、前記最外周円環部と最内周円環部とを接続するディスク部とを含み、当該ディスク部が前記最外周円環部と前記最内周円環部との間の表裏両面に各々に円環状の凹溝を形成しており、この凹溝の各々にゴム状弾性部材が接着配置されている。
【0018】
この場合、前記ディスク部に当該ディスク部の表裏両面の凹溝を互いに連通接続するゴム流し込み用の貫通孔を形成し、一度のゴム成型によって表裏両面の凹溝にゴム状弾性部材を充填成型することができる。また、これとは別に、ディスク部の表裏両面の凹溝に、互いに異質のゴム状弾性部材を各々個別に接着配置することもできる。
【0019】
また、上述の目的を達成するために、この発明による電磁制御弁は、弁ハウジング内に弁ポートの開度調節を行う弁体を有し、電磁ソレノイド装置が生じる電磁力と当該電磁力に対抗するばね手段によるばね力との平衡関係によって前記弁体を前記弁ポートの軸線方向に移動させ、当該移動により前記弁ポートの開度を変化する電磁制御弁において、前記弁ハウジングに固定装着される前記弁体の弁座部材が上述の発明による弁装置用弁座部材により構成されていることを特徴とする。
【0020】
この発明による電磁制御弁では、前記弁ハウジングは、前記弁ポートの外周部分に前記弁装置用弁座部材を填め込まれる溝部と、当該溝部の外周部に形成されたかしめ片とを有し、当該かしめ片のかしめによって前記弁装置用弁座部材の前記最外周円環部を前記溝部の底面との間に挟み込み固定しているものとすることができる。
【0021】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下に添付の図を参照してこの発明の実施の形態を詳細に説明する。
図1はこの発明による弁装置用弁座部材を組み込まれた電磁制御弁の一つの実施の形態を示している。
【0022】
電磁制御弁は、弁ハウジング11を有している。弁ハウジング11には、入口ポート12、出口ポート13、弁室(一次室)14、弁ポート15、上部均圧室(二次室)16、ばね収容室(下部均圧室)17が形成されている。弁室14は、弁ポート15の一方の側(下側)にあって連通路11Aによって入口ポート12に直接連通し、弁体20を収容している。上部均圧室16は弁ポート15の他方の側(上側)にあって連通路11Bによって出口ポート13に直接連通している。
【0023】
弁ポート15は弁室14と上部均圧室16との間にあり、弁ポート15の弁室14側には弁座部材19が弁ハウジング11に固定されている。
【0024】
弁体20は、弁座部材19との弁リフト方向、すなわち弁ポート15の軸線方向の位置関係により、弁ポート15の開度を設定し、図1で見て上方への移動により、弁ポート15の開度を減少し、これとは逆の下方への移動により、弁ポート15の開度を増大する。弁体20には弁室14の内圧(一次側圧力)P1と上部均圧室16の内圧(二次側圧力)P2との差圧ΔP=P1−P2が作用する。差圧ΔPが弁体20に作用する面積は、弁ポート15の内径(弁体20の有効受圧径)により決まる。
【0025】
弁体20の一方の側(上側)には弁棒(弁ステム)21が一体に設けられている。弁棒21は、上部均圧室16を弁ポート15の軸線方向(上下方向)に横切って延在し、後述する電磁ソレノイド装置51のプランジャロッドを兼ねている。
【0026】
弁ハウジング11には、電磁ソレノイド装置51の吸引子を兼ねたステムガイド筒体22が気密に固定されている。ステムガイド筒体22の中心孔23に弁棒21が挿通されている。なお、中心孔23と弁棒21との間には間隙24があり、この間隙24によってプランジャ室56と上部均圧室16との均圧化が図られている。
【0027】
ばね収容室17は、弁ハウジング11の端部(下端部)に形成され、弁ハウジング11にねじ止めされた固定側ばねリテーナ26と可撓性のダイヤフラム27によって閉じられ、弁ハウジング11に形成された均圧通路28によって上部均圧室16に連通している。これにより、ばね収容室17と上部均圧室16との均圧化が図られる。
【0028】
ダイヤフラム27は、外縁側を、弁体20の全開位置を設定するストッパリング部材29と共にリング形状の固定ねじ部材30によって弁ハウジング11に気密に固定されている。ダイヤフラム27は、中心部を、弁体20の先端部20Aに固定されたボール受け部材31によって弁体20に気密に接続されている。この構造により、弁室14とばね収容室17とが完全に気密分離される。
【0029】
ダイヤフラム27には弁室14の内圧P1とばね収容室17の内圧、すなわち上部均圧室16の内圧P2との差圧ΔPが作用する。差圧ΔPがダイヤフラム27に作用する面積は、ダイヤフラム27の有効受圧径により決まり、ダイヤフラム27の有効受圧径は弁ポート15の内径と等しい寸法に設定されている。
【0030】
ばね収容室17には可動ばねリテーナ32が軸線方向に可動配置されている。可動ばねリテーナ32と固定側ばねリテーナ26との間には圧縮コイルばね33が設けられている。
【0031】
可動ばねリテーナ32の上面部は球面受座部32Aになっており、球面受座部32Aと弁体20の側のボール受け部材31との間にボール部材(鋼球)34が挟まれている。ボール部材34は、固定ねじ部材30の内径部30Aに摺動可能係合し、固定ねじ部材30より軸線方向に可動支持されている。なお、固定ねじ部材30には均圧用の連通孔30Bが貫通形成されている。
【0032】
ボール部材34は、一方において可動ばねリテーナ32の球面受座部32Aに球面関節式に当接し、他方においてボール受け部材31に球面関節式に当接し、弁体20と可動ばねリテーナ32との間で自動求心接続構造をなし、圧縮コイルばね33のばね力を上向きの弁閉力として弁体20に伝達している。
【0033】
弁ハウジング11の端部(上端部)には電磁ソレノイド装置51が取り付けられている。電磁ソレノイド装置51は、弁ハウジング11に固定された底板52と、底板52に取り付けられた外凾53と、吸引子をなすステムガイド筒体22の上部に固定されたプランジャケース54と、外凾53の上端部に装着された磁気ガイド部材55とを有しており、プランジャケース54内にプランジャ室56を画定している。
【0034】
プランジャ室56は弁棒21の上端部に固定されたプランジャ57を収容している。プランジャ57にはプランジャケース54内のプランジャ57より上側の空間と下側の空間とを均圧化を図るための均圧孔57Aが貫設されている。プランジャケース54とプランジャ57との間にはプランジャばね58が設けられている。
【0035】
外凾53の内側にはステムガイド筒体22及びプランジャケース54の外周部に嵌合した電磁コイル部59が設けられており、電磁コイル部59の励磁により、ステムガイド筒体22の上端面がプランジャ57の磁気吸引面60となる。
【0036】
上述の構成による電磁制御弁は、以下のように動作する。
電磁ソレノイド装置51の電磁コイル部59に通電されることにより、その電流量に応じた電磁力が生じ、その電磁力に応じた磁気吸引力によってプランジャ57が磁気吸引面60の側に吸引される。この吸引力は弁棒21によって弁体20に作用する。
【0037】
これにより、弁体20は、電磁ソレノイド装置51が発生する電磁力による吸引力と圧縮コイルばね33のばね力との平衡関係で、上下動位置(弁開位置)が決まり、これに応じて弁ポート15の開度が決まる。この弁ポート15の開度によって入口ポート12より弁室14、弁ポート15、上部均圧室16を経て出口ポート13へ流れる流体の流量が定量的に計量される。
【0038】
また、電磁ソレノイド装置51に対する通電が停止された電磁力0の状態では、弁体20は、圧縮コイルばね33のばね力によって、図示されているように、弁座部材19に着座し、弁ポート15を閉じ、弁閉状態になる。
【0039】
弁ポート15の内径(弁体20の有効受圧径)をφD、ダイヤフラム27の有効受圧径をφDfとすると、弁体20には、弁室14の内圧P1と上部均圧室16の内力P2との差圧ΔPにより、弁ポート15側において生じる上向きの力(πD/4)ΔPと、ダイヤフラム27側において生じる下向きの力(πDf/4)ΔPが、φD=φDfであることにより、互いにキャンセルされ、弁体20の開閉に差圧ΔPの影響を受けない流量制御が可能になる。
【0040】
つぎに、この発明による弁座部材19およびこれの取付構造を、図2〜図5を参照して説明する。
【0041】
弁座部材19は、金属製円環部材41と、金属製円環部材41に接着されたゴム状弾性部材42とを有し、ゴム状弾性部材42と金属製円環部材41との接着接合体をなしている。
【0042】
金属製円環部材41は、ステンレス鋼、黄銅、アルミニウム合金等により構成され、ゴム状弾性部材42より外周側(外径側)に位置する最外周円環部41Aと、ゴム状弾性部材41より内周側(内径側)に位置する最内周円環部41Bと、最外周円環部41Aと最内周円環部41Bとを接続する薄厚のディスク部41Cとを含み、ディスク部41Cが最外周円環部41Aと最内周円環部41Bとの間の表裏両面に各々に円環状の凹溝41D、41Eを形成している。ディスク部41Cには、ゴム流し込み用の貫通孔41Fが周方向に等間隔に複数個、貫通形成されている。
【0043】
凹溝41D、41Eには、インサート成型によってHNBR等のゴム材によるゴム状弾性部材42が成型充填接着されている。成型充填接着は、加硫接着あるいはそれに相当するゴム成型時の反応による接着であり、特別な接着剤を用いることなく、安定した接着強度を得ることがてきる。
【0044】
これにより、安定した接着強度によるゴム状弾性部材42と金属製円環部材41との接着接合体を、容易に、生産性よく得ることができる。
【0045】
ディスク部41Cにゴム流し込み用の貫通孔41Fが貫通形成されているから、凹溝41D、41Eに対するゴム状弾性部材42のインサート成型時に、凹溝41D、41Eの一方の側から他方の側にゴム材を流し込むことができる。
【0046】
これにより、一度のゴム成型(インサート成型)によってディスク部41Cの表裏両面の凹溝41D、41Eにゴム状弾性部材42を充填成型することができる。
【0047】
ゴム状弾性部材42のうち、凹溝41D内に位置するゴム状弾性部材部分42Aの上面が弁ハウジング11の取付面11Cに対する気密シール面をなしている。
【0048】
ゴム状弾性部材部分42Aの上面がなす気密シール面42Bには円環状の密着シール用突条42Cが突出形成されている。気密シール面42Bは、金属製円環部材41の最外周円環部41A、最内周円環部41Bの上面より少し低く、密着シール用突条42Cの寸法は、金属製円環部材41の最外周円環部41A、最内周円環部41Bの上面より規定寸法T1(図5参照)だけ突出する寸法に設定される。
【0049】
ゴム状弾性部材42のうち、凹溝41E内に位置するゴム状弾性部材部分42Dの下面が弁座面42Eをなしている。弁座面42Eは、金属製円環部材41の最外周円環部41Aの下面とほぼ同じで、金属製円環部材41の最内周円環部41Bの下面より規定寸法T2(図5参照)だけ突出している。
【0050】
弁ハウジング11の弁ポート15の周りに形成されている弁座部材取付溝部11Dは、底面(取付面)11Cと、底面11Cの外径側の内周面11Eとによる鈎形をなし、底面11Cの内径側が弁ポート15側に開放されている。
【0051】
金属製円環部材41の最外周円環部41Aの外径は弁座部材取付溝部11Dの内周面11Eがなす内径にほぼ等しく、最内周円環部41Bは弁ポート15の内径にほぼ等しい。
【0052】
弁座部材19は、金属製円環部材41の最外周円環部41Aが弁座部材取付溝部11Dの内周面11Eに嵌合する状態で、弁座部材取付溝部11Dに嵌め込まれ、ゴム状弾性部材部分42Aの密着シール用突条42Cが底面11Cに当たる。
【0053】
この組み付け状態で、座部材取付溝部11Dの内周面11Eに沿って弁ハウジング11に形成されている円環状のかしめ片11Fを、図2に示されているように、内側に倒す、かしめ加工を行う。
【0054】
これにより、金属製円環部材41の最外周円環部41Aがかしめ片11Fと弁座部材取付溝部11Dの底面11Cとの間に挟まれ、最外周円環部41Aが弁座部材19の弁ハウジング11に対する締結固定部をなし、弁座部材19が弁ハウジング11に固定される。
【0055】
上述した弁座部材19の構造、および弁座部材19の弁ハウジング11に対する締結固定構造により、かしめによる締結固定力が弁座部材19のゴム状弾性部材42に径方向等に不規則に作用することがなく、弁座部材19の弁ハウジング11に対する締結固定が容易に安定して行われ得るようになり、組付状態で、ゴム状弾性部材42が浮き上がり等の不健全な変形を生じることがない。
【0056】
また、弁座部材19は、外周側を金属製の最外周円環部41Aをもって弁ハウジング11の弁座部材取付溝部11Dに嵌合し、内周側は弁ポート15に開放されて拘束されないので、ゴム成型時のばりがあっても、弁座部材取付溝部11Dに対する弁座部材19の組み込み作業を、容易に、的確に行えるようになり、弁座面42Eを傷付ける可能性も低減する。
【0057】
また、弁座部材19は、ゴム状弾性部材42と金属製円環部材41との接着接合体で、金属製円環部材41が高剛性の骨格をなすから、弁座部材19の取扱がゴム状弾性部材単体のものに比して向上し、また、ゴム状弾性部材単体と金属座金とによるものに比して部品点数が削減される。
【0058】
これらのことにより、弁座部材19の正常状態での組付保証性が向上し、弁座面42Eに弁体20が均一に当接し、弁漏れのない安定した高度な締切特性を確保できる。
【0059】
なお、弁体20が当接する実質的な弁座面42Eは、かしめ片11Fの内径側の領域であり、この領域に対してゴム流し込み用の貫通孔41Fは、図示されているように、径方向に偏倚した位置に設けられている。このことにより、貫通孔41Fの領域にゴム成型の凝固時にひけが生じても、実質的な弁座面42Eの平面度が保たれる。
【0060】
弁座部材19のかしめ装着により、気密シール面42Bの密着シール用突条42Cが弁座部材取付溝部11Dの底面11Cに当接して押し潰されて密着するから、弁座部材19と弁ハウジング11との間の気密性が十分確保され、裏漏れの発生も確実に回避される。
【0061】
図6〜図9は、この発明による弁座部材の他の実施形態を示している。なお、図6〜図9において、図5に対応する部分は、図5に付した符号と同一の符号を付けて、その説明を省略する。
【0062】
図6、図7に示されている弁座部材19は、ゴム状弾性部材部分42Dの弁座面42Eに断面三角形あるいは断面半円の円環状の弁体当たり用突条42Fが突出形成されている。
【0063】
この実施形態では、弁体当たり用突条42Fに弁体20(図1参照)が当たることにより弁締めが行われ、弁締め時の接触圧が高くなり、このことによっても弁漏れのない安定した高度な締切特性が得られるようになる。
【0064】
なお、この実施形態では、図示されているように、弁体当たり用突条42Fに対して径方向に偏倚した位置にゴム流し込み用の貫通孔41Fが形成される。
【0065】
図8に示されている弁座部材19は、ゴム流し込み用の貫通孔41Fがなく、ディスク部41Cの表裏両面の凹溝41D、41Eに各々個別にゴム状弾性部材部分42A、42Dが成型充填接着されている。
【0066】
この実施形態では、凹溝41Dのゴム状弾性部材部分42Aと凹溝41Eのゴム状弾性部材部分42Dとを互いに異なるゴム状弾性材によって構成できる。これにより、凹溝41Dのゴム状弾性部材部分42Aは、弁ハウジング11と密着し易く、弁ハウジング11との気密シールに適した硬度が比較的低いゴム状弾性材により構成し、凹溝41Eのゴム状弾性部材部分42Dは、弁体の繰り返しの衝突に対して所要の耐久性を備えるべく、硬度が比較的高いゴム状弾性材により構成すればよい。
【0067】

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a valve seat member for a valve device and an electromagnetic control valve, and more particularly to a valve seat member for a valve device and an electromagnetic control valve having a rubber-like elastic valve seat surface.
[0002]
[Prior art]
2. Description of the Related Art In a valve device such as an electromagnetic control valve, there is a valve device in which a valve seat member forming a valve seat surface with which a valve body contacts is formed of a rubber-like elastic body. In this valve device, when the valve is closed (fully closed), the valve body can be brought into close contact with the valve seat surface by elastic deformation of the valve seat surface (valve seat surface), thereby eliminating the leakage flow rate when the valve is closed, and providing an excellent valve. Deadline performance can be obtained.
[0003]
A conventional example of mounting a valve seat member to a valve housing with a rubber-like elastic body will be described with reference to FIGS. 10 and 11, reference numeral 101 denotes a valve housing, 102 denotes an annular valve seat member (rubber valve seat member) made of a rubber-like elastic body, and 103 denotes an annular metal washer member. .
[0004]
The valve housing 101 has a valve port 101A, an annular groove 101B having a diameter larger than the valve port 101A and concentric with the valve port 101A, and an annular groove having a diameter larger than the groove 101B and concentric with the groove 101B. A swaging piece 101C is provided.
[0005]
The rubber valve seat member 102 has a flat rubber packing shape slightly thicker than the depth of the concave groove 101B, and is fitted into the concave groove 101B. The washer member 103 is seated on the annular seating surface 101D between the concave groove 101B of the valve housing 101 and the swaging piece 101C, and abuts on the valve seat member 102 fitted in the concave groove 101B on the inner peripheral side 103A. By caulking with the caulking piece 101C, the outer peripheral side 103B is sandwiched between the caulking piece 101C and the annular seating surface 101D, and caulked and fixed to the valve housing 101. The rubber valve seat member 102 defines a valve seat surface 102A inside the inner peripheral side 103A of the washer member 103.
[0006]
An annular ridge 103C is formed on the contact surface of the washer member 103 with the rubber valve seat member 102, and the annular ridge 103C bites into the rubber valve seat member 102, so that the rubber valve seat member 102 A retaining is performed.
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
If the valve body repeatedly collides with the valve seat surface 102A of the rubber valve seat member 102, and the valve seat surface 102A is deformed, the control valve characteristic value changes. In addition, durability against deformation of the valve seat surface 102A due to repeated collision of the valve body with the valve seat surface 102A of the rubber valve seat member 102 is required.
[0008]
Therefore, the rubber valve seat member 102 is selected to have a relatively high rubber hardness and a small thickness. The valve seat member 102 having a small thickness is easily deformed, and if the rubber valve seat member 102 has burrs at the time of molding, the rubber valve seat member 102 cannot be properly incorporated into the concave groove 101B, as shown in FIG. In some cases, the valve seat surface 102A may be lifted.
[0009]
Also, when the washer member 103 shifts or deforms when the washer member 103 is swaged, the annular ridge 103C bites into the rubber valve seat member 102, and accordingly, in response to the shift or deformation of the washer member 103. The rubber valve seat member 102 bends, and this may cause the valve seat surface 102A to be lifted as shown in FIG.
[0010]
If the valve seat surface 102A is lifted, the valve body does not uniformly contact the valve seat surface 102A when the valve is closed. Since the valve seat surface 102A has rubber-like elasticity, even if the valve body does not uniformly contact the valve seat surface 102A when the valve is closed, it is possible to prevent valve leakage to some extent by elastic deformation of the valve seat surface 102A. However, it is difficult to completely eliminate valve leakage.
[0011]
In a fuel cell system, a flow control valve for controlling the flow rate of hydrogen gas is required to have no valve leakage and to have high shut-off performance. It will be difficult to meet performance. Further, the rubber valve seat member 102 is a fine component, and must be incorporated into the concave groove 101B of the valve housing 101 so as not to damage the valve seat surface 102A, but this is very difficult.
[0012]
The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, has excellent assemblability, guarantees that it can be assembled in a normal state, has no valve leakage, and can secure a stable advanced shutoff performance.

A valve seat member for a valve device according to the present invention forms an adhesive joint between a rubber-like elastic member and a metal annular member that form a valve seat surface, and includes an outermost peripheral annular portion located on the outer peripheral side of the rubber-like elastic member. The fastening to the valve housing is performed by caulking or the like. As a result, the fastening and fixing force due to caulking or the like is less likely to irregularly act on the rubber-like elastic member of the valve seat member, and the fastening and fixing of the valve seat member to the valve housing can be easily and stably performed. It is possible to avoid causing unhealthy deformation of the rubber-like elastic member in the attached state.
[0015]

An annular valve element projecting ridge is formed so as to protrude.
[0017]
Further, in the valve seat member for a valve device according to the present invention, preferably, the metal annular member is an innermost annular portion located on an inner peripheral side of the rubber-like elastic member, and the outermost annular portion. And a disk portion connecting the innermost annular portion, and the disk portion has annular concave grooves on both front and back surfaces between the outermost annular portion and the innermost annular portion. A rubber-like elastic member is bonded and arranged in each of the concave grooves.
[0018]
In this case, a through hole for rubber pouring is formed in the disc portion to connect the concave grooves on both front and back surfaces of the disc portion to each other, and a rubber-like elastic member is filled and molded into the concave grooves on both front and back surfaces by a single rubber molding. be able to. Alternatively, rubber-like elastic members of different materials may be individually bonded and arranged in the grooves on both the front and back surfaces of the disk portion.
[0019]

The valve body is moved in the axial direction of the valve port by an equilibrium relationship with the spring force of the spring means, and the opening degree of the valve port is changed by the movement, and is fixedly mounted on the valve housing. The valve seat member of the valve body is constituted by the valve device valve seat member according to the invention described above.
[0020]
In the electromagnetic control valve according to the present invention, the valve housing has a groove into which the valve device valve seat member is fitted in an outer peripheral portion of the valve port, and a caulking piece formed in the outer peripheral portion of the groove. The outermost annular portion of the valve seat for a valve device may be sandwiched and fixed between the valve device and the bottom surface of the groove by the caulking of the caulking piece.
[0021]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of an electromagnetic control valve incorporating a valve seat for a valve device according to the present invention.
[0022]
The electromagnetic control valve has a valve housing 11. In the valve housing 11, an inlet port 12, an outlet port 13, a valve chamber (primary chamber) 14, a valve port 15, an upper pressure equalizing chamber (secondary chamber) 16, and a spring accommodating chamber (lower pressure equalizing chamber) 17 are formed. ing. The valve chamber 14 is on one side (lower side) of the valve port 15 and directly communicates with the inlet port 12 through the communication passage 11A, and houses the valve body 20. The upper pressure equalizing chamber 16 is on the other side (upper side) of the valve port 15 and directly communicates with the outlet port 13 through the communication passage 11B.
[0023]
The valve port 15 is located between the valve chamber 14 and the upper pressure equalizing chamber 16, and a valve seat member 19 is fixed to the valve housing 11 on the valve chamber 14 side of the valve port 15.
[0024]
The valve body 20 sets the opening degree of the valve port 15 according to the valve lift direction with respect to the valve seat member 19, that is, the positional relationship of the valve port 15 in the axial direction. The opening of the valve port 15 is increased by decreasing the opening of the valve port 15 and moving it in the opposite downward direction. A differential pressure ΔP = P1−P2 between the internal pressure (primary pressure) P1 of the valve chamber 14 and the internal pressure (secondary pressure) P2 of the upper pressure equalizing chamber 16 acts on the valve body 20. The area where the differential pressure ΔP acts on the valve body 20 is determined by the inner diameter of the valve port 15 (the effective pressure receiving diameter of the valve body 20).
[0025]
A valve stem (valve stem) 21 is integrally provided on one side (upper side) of the valve body 20. The valve rod 21 extends across the upper pressure equalizing chamber 16 in the axial direction (vertical direction) of the valve port 15 and also serves as a plunger rod of an electromagnetic solenoid device 51 described later.
[0026]
A stem guide cylinder 22 also serving as a suction element of an electromagnetic solenoid device 51 is airtightly fixed to the valve housing 11. The valve stem 21 is inserted into the center hole 23 of the stem guide cylinder 22. Note that there is a gap 24 between the center hole 23 and the valve rod 21, and the gap 24 allows the plunger chamber 56 and the upper pressure equalizing chamber 16 to be equalized.
[0027]
The spring housing chamber 17 is formed at an end (lower end) of the valve housing 11, closed by a fixed-side spring retainer 26 screwed to the valve housing 11 and a flexible diaphragm 27, and formed in the valve housing 11. The pressure equalizing passage 28 communicates with the upper pressure equalizing chamber 16. Thereby, equalization of the spring accommodating chamber 17 and the upper pressure equalizing chamber 16 is achieved.
[0028]
The outer periphery of the diaphragm 27 is hermetically fixed to the valve housing 11 by a ring-shaped fixing screw member 30 together with a stopper ring member 29 for setting a fully open position of the valve body 20. The center of the diaphragm 27 is airtightly connected to the valve body 20 by a ball receiving member 31 fixed to the distal end portion 20A of the valve body 20. With this structure, the valve chamber 14 and the spring accommodating chamber 17 are completely airtightly separated.
[0029]
A differential pressure ΔP between the internal pressure P1 of the valve chamber 14 and the internal pressure of the spring housing chamber 17, ie, the internal pressure P2 of the upper pressure equalizing chamber 16, acts on the diaphragm 27. The area where the differential pressure ΔP acts on the diaphragm 27 is determined by the effective pressure receiving diameter of the diaphragm 27, and the effective pressure receiving diameter of the diaphragm 27 is set to be equal to the inner diameter of the valve port 15.
[0030]
A movable spring retainer 32 is movably disposed in the spring housing 17 in the axial direction. A compression coil spring 33 is provided between the movable spring retainer 32 and the fixed-side spring retainer 26.
[0031]
The upper surface of the movable spring retainer 32 is a spherical receiving portion 32A, and a ball member (steel ball) 34 is sandwiched between the spherical receiving portion 32A and the ball receiving member 31 on the valve body 20 side. . The ball member 34 is slidably engaged with the inner diameter portion 30 </ b> A of the fixed screw member 30, and is movably supported in the axial direction by the fixed screw member 30. A communication hole 30 </ b> B for pressure equalization is formed through the fixing screw member 30.
[0032]
The ball member 34 abuts the spherical receiving portion 32A of the movable spring retainer 32 on one side in a spherical articulation manner, and the ball member 34 abuts on the ball receiving member 31 in a spherical articulation manner. To form an automatic centripetal connection structure, and transmits the spring force of the compression coil spring 33 to the valve body 20 as an upward valve closing force.
[0033]
An electromagnetic solenoid device 51 is attached to an end (upper end) of the valve housing 11. The electromagnetic solenoid device 51 includes a bottom plate 52 fixed to the valve housing 11, an outer box 53 attached to the bottom plate 52, a plunger case 54 fixed to an upper part of the stem guide cylinder 22 serving as a suction element, and an outer box. And a magnetic guide member 55 attached to the upper end of the plunger 53, and defines a plunger chamber 56 in the plunger case 54.
[0034]
The plunger chamber 56 accommodates a plunger 57 fixed to the upper end of the valve stem 21. In the plunger 57, a pressure equalizing hole 57A for equalizing a space above and below the plunger 57 in the plunger case 54 is provided. A plunger spring 58 is provided between the plunger case 54 and the plunger 57.
[0035]
An electromagnetic coil portion 59 fitted to the outer periphery of the stem guide cylinder 22 and the plunger case 54 is provided inside the outer box 53, and the upper end surface of the stem guide cylinder 22 is excited by excitation of the electromagnetic coil section 59. It becomes the magnetic attraction surface 60 of the plunger 57.
[0036]
The electromagnetic control valve having the above configuration operates as follows.
When the electromagnetic coil portion 59 of the electromagnetic solenoid device 51 is energized, an electromagnetic force corresponding to the amount of the current is generated, and the plunger 57 is attracted toward the magnetic attraction surface 60 by the magnetic attraction force according to the electromagnetic force. . This suction force acts on the valve body 20 by the valve rod 21.
[0037]
As a result, the valve element 20 determines the vertical movement position (valve open position) based on the balance between the attraction force generated by the electromagnetic force generated by the electromagnetic solenoid device 51 and the spring force of the compression coil spring 33. The opening of the port 15 is determined. By the opening degree of the valve port 15, the flow rate of the fluid flowing from the inlet port 12 to the outlet port 13 through the valve chamber 14, the valve port 15, and the upper pressure equalizing chamber 16 is quantitatively measured.
[0038]
Further, in a state where the electromagnetic force is not applied to the electromagnetic solenoid device 51 and the electromagnetic force is 0, the valve body 20 is seated on the valve seat member 19 by the spring force of the compression coil spring 33 as shown in FIG. 15 is closed and the valve is closed.
[0039]
Assuming that the inner diameter of the valve port 15 (the effective pressure receiving diameter of the valve element 20) is φD and the effective pressure receiving diameter of the diaphragm 27 is φDf, the valve element 20 has an internal pressure P1 of the valve chamber 14 and an internal force P2 of the upper pressure equalizing chamber 16. Due to the upward pressure (πD 2 / 4) ΔP and the downward force generated on the diaphragm 27 side (πDf 2 / 4) Because ΔP is φD = φDf, the flow rates can be canceled each other, and the opening and closing of the valve element 20 can be controlled without being affected by the differential pressure ΔP.
[0040]
Next, the valve seat member 19 and the mounting structure thereof according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0041]
The valve seat member 19 has a metal annular member 41 and a rubber-like elastic member 42 adhered to the metal annular member 41, and is adhesively bonded between the rubber-like elastic member 42 and the metal annular member 41. I am in the body.
[0042]
The metal annular member 41 is made of stainless steel, brass, an aluminum alloy, or the like, and includes an outermost annular portion 41A located on the outer peripheral side (outer diameter side) of the rubber-like elastic member 42, and a rubber-like elastic member 41. The disk portion 41C includes an innermost annular portion 41B located on the inner peripheral side (inner diameter side), and a thin disk portion 41C connecting the outermost annular portion 41A and the innermost annular portion 41B. Annular concave grooves 41D and 41E are formed on the front and back surfaces between the outermost annular portion 41A and the innermost annular portion 41B, respectively. A plurality of through holes 41F for rubber pouring are formed in the disk portion 41C at equal intervals in the circumferential direction.
[0043]
In the concave grooves 41D and 41E, a rubber-like elastic member 42 made of a rubber material such as HNBR is molded and bonded by insert molding. Mold-filling adhesion is vulcanization adhesion or the equivalent of the reaction at the time of rubber molding, and a stable adhesive strength can be obtained without using a special adhesive.
[0044]
Thereby, an adhesive bonded body of the rubber-like elastic member 42 and the metal annular member 41 with stable adhesive strength can be easily obtained with high productivity.
[0045]
Since the through hole 41F for rubber pouring is formed through the disk portion 41C, the rubber is inserted from one side of the concave grooves 41D and 41E to the other side during insert molding of the rubber-like elastic member 42 into the concave grooves 41D and 41E. The material can be poured.
[0046]
Thus, the rubber-like elastic member 42 can be filled and molded into the concave grooves 41D and 41E on both the front and back surfaces of the disk portion 41C by a single rubber molding (insert molding).
[0047]
Of the rubber-like elastic member 42, the upper surface of the rubber-like elastic member portion 42A located in the concave groove 41D forms an airtight sealing surface with respect to the mounting surface 11C of the valve housing 11.
[0048]
An annular sealing ridge 42C protrudes from an airtight sealing surface 42B formed by the upper surface of the rubber-like elastic member portion 42A. The hermetic seal surface 42B is slightly lower than the upper surfaces of the outermost annular portion 41A and the innermost annular portion 41B of the metal annular member 41, and the size of the ridge 42C for close contact seal is smaller than that of the metallic annular member 41. The dimensions are set to protrude from the upper surfaces of the outermost annular portion 41A and the innermost annular portion 41B by a specified dimension T1 (see FIG. 5).
[0049]
Of the rubber-like elastic member 42, the lower surface of the rubber-like elastic member portion 42D located in the concave groove 41E forms a valve seat surface 42E. The valve seat surface 42E is substantially the same as the lower surface of the outermost annular portion 41A of the metallic annular member 41, and is defined by the lower surface of the innermost annular portion 41B of the metallic annular member 41 in a specified dimension T2 (see FIG. 5). ) Only protruding.
[0050]
The valve seat member mounting groove portion 11D formed around the valve port 15 of the valve housing 11 has a hook shape formed by a bottom surface (mounting surface) 11C and an inner peripheral surface 11E on the outer diameter side of the bottom surface 11C. Is open to the valve port 15 side.
[0051]
The outer diameter of the outermost annular portion 41A of the metallic annular member 41 is substantially equal to the inner diameter of the inner peripheral surface 11E of the valve seat member mounting groove 11D, and the innermost annular portion 41B is substantially equal to the inner diameter of the valve port 15. equal.
[0052]
The valve seat member 19 is fitted into the valve seat member mounting groove 11D in a state where the outermost peripheral annular portion 41A of the metal annular member 41 is fitted to the inner peripheral surface 11E of the valve seat member mounting groove 11D, and is made of rubber. The contact sealing protrusion 42C of the elastic member portion 42A contacts the bottom surface 11C.
[0053]
In this assembled state, the annular caulking piece 11F formed on the valve housing 11 along the inner peripheral surface 11E of the seat member mounting groove 11D is turned inward as shown in FIG. I do.
[0054]
As a result, the outermost annular portion 41A of the metallic annular member 41 is sandwiched between the swaged piece 11F and the bottom surface 11C of the valve seat member mounting groove 11D, and the outermost annular portion 41A is connected to the valve seat member 19 by the valve. The valve seat member 19 is fixed to the valve housing 11 by forming a fastening portion for the housing 11.
[0055]
Due to the above-described structure of the valve seat member 19 and the fastening and fixing structure of the valve seat member 19 to the valve housing 11, the fastening and fixing force due to caulking acts on the rubber-like elastic member 42 of the valve seat member 19 irregularly in the radial direction or the like. Therefore, the fastening and fixing of the valve seat member 19 to the valve housing 11 can be easily and stably performed, and undesired deformation such as floating of the rubber-like elastic member 42 in the assembled state may occur. Absent.
[0056]
Further, the valve seat member 19 is fitted on the valve seat member mounting groove portion 11D of the valve housing 11 with the outermost annular portion 41A made of metal on the outer peripheral side, and the inner peripheral side is opened to the valve port 15 and is not restrained. Even if there is a burr at the time of rubber molding, the work of assembling the valve seat member 19 into the valve seat member mounting groove portion 11D can be easily and accurately performed, and the possibility of damaging the valve seat surface 42E is reduced.
[0057]
Further, the valve seat member 19 is an adhesive bonded body of the rubber-like elastic member 42 and the metal ring member 41. Since the metal ring member 41 forms a highly rigid skeleton, the handling of the valve seat member 19 is made of rubber. The number of parts is reduced as compared with the case where the rubber elastic member alone and the metal washer are used.
[0058]
As a result, the assembling guaranty of the valve seat member 19 in a normal state is improved, the valve body 20 abuts the valve seat surface 42E uniformly, and a stable and high-level shutoff characteristic without valve leakage can be secured.
[0059]
The substantial valve seat surface 42E with which the valve element 20 abuts is a region on the inner diameter side of the caulking piece 11F, and the through-hole 41F for pouring the rubber into this region has a diameter as shown in the figure. It is provided at a position deviated in the direction. Thus, even if sinkage occurs during solidification of rubber molding in the area of the through hole 41F, the substantially flatness of the valve seat surface 42E is maintained.
[0060]
When the valve seat member 19 is swaged, the contact sealing ridge 42C of the airtight sealing surface 42B comes into contact with the bottom surface 11C of the valve seat member mounting groove 11D and is crushed and adhered. And the airtightness between them is sufficiently ensured, and the occurrence of back leakage is reliably avoided.
[0061]
6 to 9 show another embodiment of the valve seat member according to the present invention. 6 to 9, parts corresponding to those in FIG. 5 are denoted by the same reference numerals as those in FIG. 5, and description thereof will be omitted.
[0062]
The valve seat member 19 shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 has a ring-shaped valve element projecting ridge 42F having a triangular cross section or a semicircular cross section protrudingly formed on a valve seat surface 42E of a rubber-like elastic member portion 42D. I have.
[0063]
