Abstract

A refrigerant flow amount control valve has a construction for adjusting the amount of flow of a refrigerant in a predetermined range and a bypass for allowing the refrigerant to flow without passing through the construction when the valve is in an open state. The construction and the bypass are disposed in parallel to form a common refrigerant flow path through the valve.
