PURPOSE: To connect a hose having a valve to a pipe through a one-touch operation, reduce the number of parts such as a clip, and eliminate the need of fixing the valve to a body.
CONSTITUTION: This hose is formed out of a hose connecting section 1 with a hose jointed, a valve holding section 2 communicated to the section 1 and holding a valve member 4 made of an operation section and a turning section to adjust a flowrate via a turning motion due to the turn of the operation section in such a state as exposing the operation section, and a connector section 3 kept in communication with the section 2 and used for coupling a pipe 5 as a mating member. According to this construction, the valve member 4 is built into the connector section 3 and, therefore, a clip can be eliminated, thereby providing simple appearance.
