A leaf spring energizing the free valve to the taper-like valve seat surface is provided in an upper side of the free valve, the leaf spring having an annular portion and a plurality of hook portions extending in a radial direction to an inner periphery of the annular portion, and being formed in a flat shape in a free state.
