Abstract
A valve apparatus of a valve system includes a long-sized elastic member a base end portion of which is fixed and a front end portion of which is brought into contact with a valve element and a movable member capable of moving in B1 and B2 directions actually linearly along a longitudinal direction B of the elastic member between both end portions of the elastic member and having a fulcrum portion for flexing the elastic member in C direction between the both end portions of the elastic member. The movable member is constituted by a slider linearly moved in accordance with a mover of a linear step motor element or rotation of a rotor of a rotary type step motor element.
