Abstract:
A spool valve includes a valve portion that opens and closes a portion between an input port and an output port and a radial-direction-position changing portion provided in an outer lateral surface of the valve portion in a radial direction. When a first value is equivalent to or larger than a threshold that is larger than 0, the portion between the input port and the output port are opened to permit a flow of the oil inside the first connection oil passage, and when the first value is smaller than the threshold, the portion is closed to block the flow of the oil inside the first connection oil passage. The radial-direction-position changing portion extends in the axial direction, and a position thereof in the radial direction changes inwardly from a first side towards a second side in the axial direction.

Claim (Index 3):
The spool valve according to  claim 2 ,\n wherein an outer lateral surface of the oil passage constituting portion in the radial direction is, in the radial direction, positioned at a same position as a position of the end portion of the radial-direction-position changing portion on the second side in the axial direction, or is positioned on an inner side in the radial direction with respect to the end portion of the radial-direction-position changing portion on the second side in the axial direction.
