Abstract:
A valve apparatus includes a valve main body, a shaft body, a first valve element, and a second valve element. The valve main body has a first depressed portion and a second depressed portion in a circular shape, and a first port, a second port, and a third port each communicating with the first depressed portion, and a fourth port and a fifth port each communicating with the second depressed portion. The first port is allowed to selectively communicate with one of the second port and the third port by closure of one of the second port and the third port by the first valve element rotating about an axial direction. A flow amount of a fluid flowing between the fourth port and the fifth port is allowed to be variable by closure of the fourth port by the second valve element rotating about the axial direction.

Claim (Index 6):
