Abstract
Abstract As a motor is rotationally driven, a valve stem is reciprocally displaced to open or close a flow passage formed in a housing for a high temperature fluid. The motor is held via a bracket where inner surface is concavely recessed contour, and the bracket has a predetermined height and a plurality of openings are formed on the wall surface of the bracket. The housing and the bracket are made integral with each other, and supporting portions formed between adjacent openings are dimensioned to have a smallest cross sectional size necessary from the viewpoint of a strength. With this construction, an efficiency for performing an assembling operation for a motor driven type flow rate controlling valve can be improved, and moreover, a quantity of heat to be conducted from the bracket to the motor side can be reduced.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
129 words
A motor driven type flow rate controlling valve including a housing having a flow passage formed therein for a high temperature fluid, a bracket of which inner surface is concavely recessed, said bracket being connected to said housing, having a predetermined height and having a plurality of openings formed on a wall surface thereof, and a motor holder for holding a motor for allowing a valve stem to be reciprocally displaced to open or close said flow passage as said motor is rotationally driven, said motor holder being connected to said bracket, wherein said motor holder is made of a material having high heat conductivity, and a cylindrical member having excellent heat conductivity is projected toward said concave portion while surroundingly covering an output shaft of said motor therewith.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
129 words
A motor driven type flow rate controlling valve including a housing having a flow passage formed therein for a high temperature fluid, a bracket of which inner surface is concavely recessed, said bracket being connected to said housing, having a predetermined height and having a plurality of openings formed on a wall surface thereof, and a motor holder for holding a motor for allowing a valve stem to be reciprocally displaced to open or close said flow passage as said motor is rotationally driven, said motor holder being connected to said bracket, wherein said motor holder is made of a material having high heat conductivity, and a cylindrical member having excellent heat conductivity is projected toward said concave portion while surroundingly covering an output shaft of said motor therewith.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
