Abstract
Provided is an electrically-driven flow rate control valve capable of controlling a flow rate of a fluid flowing between two inlet/outlet ports, restraining a high pressure of the fluid from being applied to a sub valve body connected to an electric motor. The flow rate control valve has a casing, a raising/lowering drive device, a supply-switching valve, a main valve body, a valve-closing spring. When the electric motor of the raising/lowering drive device moves the sub valve body upward, oil of a back pressure chamber is discharged from a discharge oil passage through a sub valve body communication port and a sub valve body oil passage to open the main valve body. When the main valve body is closed, a pressure of the back pressure chamber is inhibited from being directly applied to a lower end face of the sub valve body.
