Abstract
A switching valve is constructed such that a rotor is rotatably provided inside a body and a cover member is provided with respect to the body so as to face a table part of the rotor. A gap having a prescribed interval is provided between an upper surface of the table part and the cover member, and a valve body biased toward the cover member side is provided to the table part. When rotating, the rotor does not slide on the bottom surface of the cover member, and leakage of a liquid from an inlet port is prevented due to the valve body seated on and closing an outlet port that is not the outlet port which is provided to the cover member so as to cause the liquid to be outputted therethrough.
