Abstract
A valve device is provided with a nozzle that has a flow hole through which a fluid flows; a support member that supports the nozzle; a valve body that has a piezoelectric element and opens and closes an opening of the flow hole by driving of the piezoelectric element; and a position adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the nozzle with respect to the valve body. The position adjustment mechanism has an urging member for urging the nozzle toward the valve body; and a stopper member for preventing movement of the nozzle due to the urging member by coming into contact with the nozzle.
