Abstract

A valve device which improves the operability of a valve for opening and closing a flow path. The valve device includes a valve, an actuator, an actuator support member, an operating portion, and a threaded member wherein the valve is able to open and close a fluid path in a valve body having a fluid inflow passage and a fluid outflow passage. The actuator displaces the valve between an open position and a closed position. The actuator support member operatively supports the actuator so that the actuator is able to be driven. The operating portion drives the actuator. The threaded member is threadedly engaged with the actuator.
