Abstract
A pressure reduction valve includes a body including a gas passage, a valve seat provided in the gas passage, and a valve member provided on a downstream side of the valve seat in the gas passage. The gas passage includes a primary-side passage section located on an upstream side of the valve member, and a secondary-side passage section located on a downstream side of the valve member. The primary-side passage section includes a pressure chamber, which is a space formed between the valve member and the valve seat. The valve member includes a valve member passage that connects the pressure chamber to the secondary-side passage section, and an auxiliary passage configured to assist gas that flows into the pressure chamber through a clearance between the valve member and the valve seat to flow out to the secondary-side passage section.
