Abstract
A valve device includes: a flow path member having a flow path; a plurality of solenoid valves configured to open and close the flow path; and a support member configured to support the plurality of solenoid valves from below in an up-down direction and be stacked with the flow path member in the up-down direction. When a part located at an uppermost position in the up-down direction of each of the solenoid valves is defined as an uppermost portion, the flow path is located to be shifted from the uppermost portions of the plurality of solenoid valves in a direction perpendicular to the up-down direction.

A valve device comprising:
- a flow path member having a flow path;
- a plurality of solenoid valves configured to open and close;
- and
- a support member configured to support the plurality of solenoid valves from below in an up-down direction and be stacked with the flow path member in the up-down direction, wherein
- when a part located at an uppermost position in the up-down direction of each of the solenoid valves is defined as an uppermost portion,
- the flow path is spaced from the uppermost portions of the plurality of solenoid valves in a direction perpendicular to the up-down direction,
- the flow path includes a main flow path and a plurality of sub flow paths that are connected to the main flow path and separately opened and closed by the plurality of solenoid valves,
- when the direction perpendicular to the up-down direction is defined as a first direction, and a direction perpendicular to both the up-down direction and the first direction is defined as a second direction,
- the plurality of sub flow paths each include a first part extending in the first direction, and
- the first parts of the plurality of sub flow paths are alternately aligned with the plurality of solenoid valves in the second direction.
