ABSTRACT:
A motor-operated valve is constructed such that a stator is provided outside of a nonmagnetic tubular member allowing flow of a fluid, with stator coils wound around a plurality of magnetic poles, and a plurality of permanent magnets are secured to an operating surface of each magnetic pole. The permanent magnets are magnetized into a number of pole-pairs arranged at a constant pitch. A rotor is rotatably supported inside of the tubular member. A number of induction teeth are formed along the circumference of the rotor at a pitch equal to the pitch of the pole-pairs of the permanent magnets, and the total number of the induction teeth is so selected that it is different from the total number of the pole-pairs of the permenant magnets by an amount equal to an even number. A mechanism including a rotation-preventing means is also provided in the rotor for converting the rotating movement of the rotor into a linear movement of a valve member.
