Abstract:
A valve device includes a control device adapted to control a valve without being supplied with electricity. The control device includes at least one rotatable control cam having an outer periphery with a concave and convex shape, and a driving device adapted to rotate the control cam only in a first rotational direction, out of the first rotational direction and a second rotational direction opposite from the first rotational direction, by being supplied with a pressurized medium. The valve is placed such that a switch portion comes in contact with the outer peripheral portion of the control cam, in order that the valve is opened and closed by the control cam being rotated.

Claim (Index 9):
The valve device according to  claim 8 , wherein\n the lock member slides on an outer peripheral portion of the rotary member, the positional adjustment portion includes a pressurizing member adapted to bring the lock member into press contact with the rotary member, the rotary member includes a lock portion with a concave shape which is locked by the lock member, when the control cam is positioned at the original position, an amount of rotation of the pinion in the first rotational direction which is caused by a single forward motion of the movable member is equal to or less than a single rotation, the rotary member includes a guide portion adapted to guide the lock member up to the lock portion from a position at which the lock member is positioned as a result of a single forward motion of the movable member, and the guide portion is gradually deepened toward the lock portion, in order that the rotary member rotates in the first rotational direction by being in press contact with the lock member.
