Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2620724A1] An orifice (60) formed in a valve seat (12) has an orifice entrance (61) having the smallest diameter, an orifice middle section (62) which widens in diameter along the direction of refrigerant outflow from the orifice entrance (61) so as to form a first taper angle, and an orifice exit (63) which either widens in diameter or does not change in diameter along the direction of refrigerant outflow from the orifice middle section (62) so as to form a second taper angle smaller than the first taper angle.
