A valve drive device includes a valve seat plate in which an inflow port
and an outflow port for fluid are formed, a sealing case covering the
front face side of the valve seat plate, an inflow pipe and an outflow
pipe which are fixed in the rear face side of the valve seat plate so as
to be in communication with the inflow port and the outflow port, and a
valve element which slides on an area where the outflow port is formed on
the front face side of the valve seat plate to open or close the outflow
port. The valve seat plate includes a first plate member which constructs
an area where the outflow port is formed, a second plate member which is
thinner than the first plate member and is jointed with the first plate
member, and a deformation preventing member which is attached on the rear
face of the second plate member and prevents the second plate member from
being deformed due to an internal-pressure in a sealed space constructed
by the sealing case and the valve seat plate.
