  • the present application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2019-060919 filed on March 27, 2019, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
  • a bypass flow path that bypasses the radiator and a warm air flow path that passes through the oil warmer are installed side by side.
  • a control valve is interposed at a branch portion of the flow path, and the flow path is appropriately switched by the control valve.

  • the control valve described in Patent Document 1 is provided with an inflow port into which a liquid such as cooling water flows in and a plurality of outflow ports from which the inflowing liquid flows out to the outside in a casing.
  • a plurality of valve holes communicating inside and outside are formed on the peripheral wall of the valve body corresponding to a plurality of outlets.
  • At each outlet one end side of a substantially cylindrical seal cylinder member is slidably held.
  • One end of each seal tube member communicates with the downstream side of the corresponding outlet.
  • a valve slide contact surface that slidably contacts the outer peripheral surface of the valve body is provided.
  • each seal cylinder member is in sliding contact with the outer peripheral surface of the valve body at a position where it wraps with the rotation path of the corresponding valve hole of the valve body.
  • the valve sliding contact surface of the seal cylinder member is formed so as to follow the outer surface shape of the valve body because it is in close contact with the outer peripheral surface of the valve body. That is, at the other end of the seal cylinder member in the axial direction, the protrusion height in the valve body direction continuously changes in the circumferential direction of the seal cylinder member so as to follow the outer surface shape of the valve body.
  • valve body of the control valve When the valve body of the control valve is in a position where the seal cylinder member communicates with the corresponding valve hole, the valve body allows the liquid to flow out from the inner region of the valve body to the corresponding outlet, and the seal cylinder member corresponds to the valve. When in a position that does not communicate with the hole, it blocks the outflow of liquid from the inner region of the valve body to the corresponding outlet.
  • the rotation position of the valve body is controlled by an actuator such as an electric motor.
  • the protruding height of the other end of the seal cylinder member is continuously changed so as to follow the outer surface shape of the cylindrical valve body. Therefore, in the region where the protrusion height is high in the other end of the seal cylinder member, when the pressure of the liquid in the casing acts on the outer peripheral surface near the protrusion end, the pressure acts on the other end side of the seal cylinder member. It works as a moment to bend and deform. Specifically, when the pressure of the liquid in the casing acts on the outer peripheral surface near the protruding end in the region where the protruding height of the other end of the seal cylinder member is high, the force caused by the pressure acting on the outer peripheral surface.

It is characterized in that a small outer diameter portion whose length from the axial center to the outer peripheral surface of the seal cylinder member is shorter than that of other regions is provided in the high region.
  • the pressure of the liquid in the casing acts on the outer periphery of the other end of the seal cylinder member.
  • a force due to the pressure of the liquid in the casing acts on the outer peripheral surface near the protruding end.
  • This force acts on the other end side of the seal cylinder member as a moment starting from a region having a low protrusion height.
  • the pressure receiving surface small outside in the region where the protruding height is high. The distance from the diameter part) to the starting point of the moment becomes shorter. As a result, the moment acting on the other end of the seal cylinder member becomes small, and the bending deformation of the other end of the seal cylinder member due to the moment is suppressed.
  • the small outer diameter portion may be formed by a first plane whose end on the valve sliding contact surface side forms a linear shape substantially parallel to the rotation axis of the valve body.
  • a second plane substantially parallel to the first plane is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the other end of the seal cylinder member in a region having a high protrusion height so as to bulge inward in the radial direction of the seal cylinder member. It may be done.
  • the radial width (thickness) of the region where the protruding height of the other end of the seal cylinder member is high can be made substantially constant, the surface pressure increases due to the decrease in the radial width of the valve slide contact surface. Can be suppressed. As a result, it becomes possible to further suppress the wear of the other end of the seal cylinder member.
  • the seal cylinder member is located on the one end side and is located on the other end side of the first cylinder portion that communicates with the outlet, and the end surface in the axial direction constitutes the valve slide contact surface.
  • the inner peripheral surface has a second cylinder portion formed by bulging the second plane, and the inner diameter of the first cylinder portion is formed to be smaller than the inner diameter of the second cylinder portion. Is also good.
  • the flow rate of the liquid flowing out to the downstream side of the outlet through the seal cylinder member is determined by the inner diameter of the first cylinder portion of the seal cylinder member having a relatively small inner diameter. Since the second plane formed by bulging toward the inner peripheral side is provided inside the second cylinder having a relatively large inner diameter in the radial direction, it affects the flow rate of the liquid flowing out to the downstream side of the outlet. Do not give. Therefore, when this configuration is adopted, the flow rate of the liquid flowing out to the outlet can be easily set and adjusted.
  • the outer peripheral surface of the other end of the seal cylinder member may be formed in a substantially elliptical shape in which the region having the highest protruding height has a minor diameter and the region having the lowest protruding height has a major diameter.

  • the radial width of the region of the other end of the seal cylinder member having a low protrusion height where the Hertz surface pressure tends to increase is formed to be wide, the surface pressure at the portion having a low protrusion height is formed. Can be suppressed from increasing. Therefore, it is possible to suppress premature wear of the other end of the seal cylinder member, which has a low protrusion height.
  • the control valve described above has a small outer diameter in a region of the other end of the seal cylinder member having a high protrusion height, in which the length from the axial center to the outer peripheral surface of the seal cylinder member is shorter than in other regions. Since the portion is provided, it is possible to suppress the generation of a moment due to the hydraulic pressure received on the outer peripheral surface of the region having a high protrusion height, and to suppress the bending deformation of the other end portion of the seal cylinder member. Therefore, when the above-mentioned control valve is adopted, the sealing performance between the seal cylinder member and the valve body can be improved.
