A coaxial valve includes a valve box having at least one inlet opening, at least one outlet opening, and a common flow channel. A cylindrical valve casing, which is prevented from turning at one segment of the flow channel, but is intended to be axially movable, features an opening for a fluid inlet port as well as an opening for a fluid outlet port, both of which are joined up in the flow channel. A shutoff mechanism is located inside the valve box, is positioned coaxially to the valve casing, and is designed to close off the inlet port or the outlet port of the valve casing. To provide for axial movement, the valve casing, at least in sections at its outermost surface, has at least one external circular groove. The valve casing, at the segment of the external circular groove, is enclosed by a drive casing which is coaxial to the valve casing. At its internal diameter, the drive casing has at least one inner circular groove, which is adapted to the outer circular groove so that the inner and outer grooves are engaged, via inside ball bearings, to create a ball planetary gear and ball rotary spindle drive. The drive casing in the valve box is turnable, but firmly seated axially, and forced to turn by a drive motor inside of the valve box.

We claim: 1. A coaxial valve comprising: a valve box, having at least one fluid inlet opening, at least one fluid outlet opening, and a common flow channel connecting the fluid inlet and fluid outlet openings together, a tubular shaped valve casing, which is prevented from turning but permitted to be axially pivotable, featuring a fluid inlet port and an outlet port which join the common flow channel, a shutoff mechanism, located inside of the valve box, which is coaxial to the valve casing and designed to shut off the fluid inlet port or the outlet port of the valve casing, and a drive to produce axial movement of the valve casing, wherein the valve casing is provided, at least in sections, with at least one threaded external nut at an outer circular groove, wherein the valve casing is enclosed by a coaxial drive casing at a location of the outer circular groove, wherein the drive casing is provided with at least one threaded inner circular groove adapted to the outer circular groove so that ball bearings running along the inner and outer circular grooves create tension against one another, thus forming a ball planetary gear of a ball rotary spindle drive, and wherein the drive casing is located inside of the valve box, is pivotable but firmly seated axially, and is made to pivot by a drive motor inside of the valve box. 2. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 1, wherein the drive casing is enclosed in a rotor of the drive motor and is prevented from turning. 3. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 2, wherein the rotor is enclosed by a stator which is part of the drive motor, and wherein the stator is firmly seated and prevented from turning inside of the valve box. 4. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 3, wherein the stator is axially pivotable within the valve housing. 5. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 3, wherein the rotor is housed inside of the stator along with at least two radial anti-friction ball bearings, and is installed so as to be pivotable. 6. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 1, wherein the drive motor is an electric motor. 7. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 1, wherein the drive casing is installed on two axial bearings inside of the valve box. 8. The coaxial valve according to claim 7, wherein each of the two axial bearings, at respective axial outer support rings, is provided with a spherical, convex outer surface designed to correspond with an opposing concave inner surface for support inside of the valve box, and wherein the corresponding spherical concave and convex surfaces are also located at a center line of the valve box at a central axis of a ball central point. 9. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 8, wherein the shutoff mechanism features a first part, which is provided with a circular, spherical concave surface pointing towards the valve casing in which one surface belonging to the first part of the shutoff mechanism is installed in such a manner that it is rotatable, so that both the first part and a second part are axially connected but can be moved alongside the surfaces relative to one another, and wherein, at the same time, the ball central point of the surfaces of the shutoff mechanism aligns with the ball central point of the shell-shaped surfaces and respective axial bearings. 10. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 9, wherein the shutoff mechanism at its second part is provided with a circular step, which together with an adjacent edge of the valve casing, which is restricted by the front side of the rim of the outlet port, functions to create a seal when the valve is closed. 11. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 7, wherein the axial bearings are ball bearings. 12. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 4, wherein the rotor is housed inside of the stator along with at least two radial anti-friction ball bearings, and is installed so as to be pivotable. 13. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 2, wherein the drive motor is an electric motor. 14. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 2, wherein the drive casing is installed on two axial bearings inside of the valve box. 15. The coaxial valve according to claim 14, wherein each of the two axial bearings, at respective axial outer support rings, is provided with a spherical, convex outer surface designed to correspond with an opposing concave inner surface for support inside of the valve box, and wherein the corresponding spherical concave and convex surfaces are also located at a center line of the valve box at a central axis of a ball central point. 16. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 15, wherein the shutoff mechanism features a first part, which is provided with a circular, spherical concave surface pointing towards the valve casing in which one surface belonging to the first part of the shutoff mechanism is installed in such a manner that it is rotatable, so that both the first part and a second part are axially connected but can be moved alongside the surfaces relative to one another, and wherein, at the same time, the ball central point of the surfaces of the shutoff mechanism aligns with the ball central point of the shell-shaped surfaces and respective axial bearings. 17. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 16, wherein the shutoff mechanism at its second part is provided with a circular step, which together with an adjacent edge of the valve casing, which is restricted by the front side of the rim of the outlet port, functions to create a seal when the valve is closed. 18. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 3, wherein the drive motor is an electric motor. 19. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 3, wherein the drive casing is installed on two axial bearings inside of the valve box. 20. The coaxial valve in accordance with claim 4, wherein the drive casing is installed on two axial bearings inside of the valve box.
