A mixing valve has a housing, hot- and cold-water valves in the housing having respective valve stems rotatable about respective parallel axes, respective drive gears fixed on the stems, respective hot- and cold-water control elements pivotal on the housing, and respective coupling gears each connected to a respective one of the control elements and meshing with a respective one of the drive gears. The coupling gears each have a pair of gear segments of different effective radii, one of the gear segments of each coupling gear meshing with the respective valve drive gear and the other gear segment with the respective control element. The radii are such that the coupling gears create a step-down ratio of about 1:1.6.
