Abstract
A gasket has a retainer element integrally formed therewith for a reed valve. The retainer element is defined by one or two pairs of contour lines or by a pair of geometrically combined contour lines, and these contour lines are arranged such that no contour line will act as if it were a hinge when the retainer element is subjected to a deformation force thereof, and thus the retainer element is able to sufficiently withstand a deformation force exerted thereon.
