Abstract
A relief valve includes a valve body having a first port through which fluid flows in and a second port through which the fluid is discharged, a sleeve arranged so as to be slidable within the valve body and formed with an inlet being communicatable with the first port and an outlet being communicatable with the second port, a valve being slidable within the sleeve by receiving a fluid pressure of the first port flowing through the inlet in order to establish a closing state at which the outlet is closed by the valve and an opening state at which the outlet is opened, a biasing member applying a biasing force to the valve and a valve position adjusting mechanism actuated for operating the fluid pressure of the first port so as to act on the sleeve in a direction of the biasing force of the biasing member and changing the position of the sleeve relative to the valve body by turning on or off the operation of the fluid pressure of the first port so as to act on the sleeve.
