    Abstract: The present invention is a flow-rate adjustable valve for adjusting a flow rate of liquid flowing through a flow path. The flow-rate adjustable valve includes: a main valve body movably supported in the flow path via a diaphragm membrane; a back pressure chamber; a plurality of inlet holes communicating the upstream side of the flow path with the back pressure chamber; an outlet hole communicating a downstream side of the flow path with the back pressure chamber; and a pilot valve body for opening and closing the outlet hole, wherein moments acting on the main valve body based on the liquid flowing into the back pressure chamber through the plurality of inlet holes are canceled by each other in total, under a condition in which the pilot valve body opens the outlet hole.

    Abstract: The present invention is a flow-rate adjustable valve for adjusting a flow rate of liquid flowing through a flow path. The flow-rate adjustable valve includes: a main valve body; a back pressure chamber; an inlet hole; an outlet hole; a pilot valve body for opening and closing an end of the outlet hole on a side of the back pressure chamber; an elongated member holding the pilot valve body; and a lifter rotatable and also movable in the axial direction of the elongated member by the rotation of the rotatable member. The lifter and the elongated member are integrally movable in the axial direction. The elongated member is connected to the lifter under a condition in which the elongated member is biased to the lifter in a one-way direction of the axial direction by a biasing-connecting member.

    Abstract: The cylinder body is affected by a rotational operation of the first operation part in such a manner that a rotational position of the cylinder body is changed while an axial position of the cylinder body is not changed, and is affected by a rotational operation of the second operation part in such a manner that the axial position of the cylinder body is changed while the rotational position of the cylinder body is not changed. A communication amount between the cold water supply channel and the cold water inlet hole, a communication amount between the hot water supply channel and the hot water inlet hole, and/or a communication amount between the mixed water outlet hole and the mixed water outlet channel are/is changed depending on the axial position and the rotational position of the cylinder body in order to achieve both a temperature regulation and a flow rate regulation.
