Abstract
A critical state is assumed in which a position of one end of the opening of the input port in the axial direction and a position of the other end of the groove in the axial direction accord with each other with respect to the axial direction. In the critical state, when a straight line is extended in the axial direction as well as radially outward of the spool without changing a direction of the straight line in a circumferential direction of the spool from one end of the groove bottom in the axial direction with the same inclination as the inclination of the groove bottom at the one end of the groove in the axial direction relative to the axial direction, the straight line passes through the opening of the output port to contact a wall surface of the output port.
