1. An actuating member, comprising:
a guide surface on the actuating member having a rotating shaft; and
a guide path formed on the guide surface,
wherein the guide surface is configured to slidably abut against a top end of a valve core rod, so that the top end of the valve core rod selectively abuts against a position on the guide path at a different height, to adjust a position of the valve core rod in a valve port of a reversing valve to change a flow area at the valve port,
wherein the guide surface comprises two first guide portions disposed at highest portions of the guide surface and two second guide portions disposed at lowest portions of the guide surface, wherein the first guide portions are symmetric with each other with respect to a center of the rotating shaft, the second guide portions are symmetric with each other with respect to the center of the rotating shaft, and the first guide portions and the second guide portions are alternately disposed on the guide surface.
