A heat transmission retardant member 140 is formed of a cup-like shaped resin material utilizing nylon or polyacetals, comprising a collar 141 formed to the outside of the upper end thereof, and a thick-walled cylinder portion 143 having at the lower end thereof a tapered portion 142. Said retardant member 140 is positioned so that the upper end contacts a support member 82', said collar 141 is supported by the inner surface of a housing 81, the outer surface of said cylinder portion 143 contacts the inner surface of said housing 81, and the end of said tapered portion 142 is inserted to a second hole 72 and contacting the outer surface of a heat-sensing driven member 100 and further positioned within a lower chamber 85 defined by a diaphragm 82. Said retardant member 140 is mounted to said driven member 100 so as to cover the outer surface thereof and being mounted outside the second refrigerant passage 63, said tapered portion 143 defining a space 144 between the exterior of the driven member 100 and the interior of said cylinder portion 142. Not only is the hunting phenomenon suppressed by the existence of the activated carbon, but the invasion of the refrigerant to the lower chamber 85 is prevented, and the heat from the heat transmission retardant member 140 is transmitted to the heat-sensing driven member 100 via space 144 which enables to provide a further retardation to the response of the valve to the temperature change of the refrigerant exiting the evaporator. The hunting is further suppressed effectively.
