<p>A check valve includes a valve component composed of an elastic material and having a flat circular seal and a shaft extending from the center of the seal; and a partition having a valve-supporting hole sustaining the valve component, a thin circular portion centered at the valve-supporting hole and having a diameter smaller than the seal, and vents through the thin circular portion. The shaft of the valve component is sustained by the valve-supporting hole in the partition, and the seal is deformed toward the partition such that the bottom surface of the seal is in line contact with a circular edge that is defined by the level difference between the partition and the thin circular portion at least in a state where the valve component does not receive fluid pressure.</p> |
