<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a valve device capable of suppressing generation of uncomfortable sound when a delivery-stop water operation part at an ascended position is downwardly pushed-in and, further, when pushing-in force is added to the delivery-stop operation part positioned at a descended position to ascend this. <P>SOLUTION: An outward flange part is provided on a delivery-stop water operation part 228 in the valve device provided with the delivery-stop water operation part 228 position-retained to an ascended position and a descended position by a thrust lock mechanism and a delivery-stop water switching mechanism for performing delivery-stop water switching. An elastic piece 288 is provided on the flange part in a circumferential direction, and a downward projection 290 and an upward projection 290 are provided on a distal end part of the elastic piece 288. When the delivery-stop water operation part 228 is downwardly pushed-in, the downward projection 290 is abutted on an outer ring member 234 for defining the pushed-in end, and when pushing-in force is added to the delivery-stop water operation part 228 to ascend this, the upward projection 290 is abutted on a flow rate adjustment handle 224 as a member for defining the ascended end. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
