Abstract: A valve holding member made of a sheet metal includes a hub part (33) having a guide hole (34) through which a valve stem (23) and a plurality of arm parts (32) formed at the peripheral edge of the hub part. The arm parts are extend from the peripheral edge in an axial direction and in a radially outward direction with respect to the axis of the valve stem. The valve holding member also includes any one of a first reinforcing protrusion (35) formed in at least one of the arm parts which extends along a longitudinal direction of the at least one arm part and protrudes radially outward or inward with respect to the axis of the valve stem, a tubular reinforcing part (35c, 35e) formed around the guide hole and extending from the hub part in the axial direction, and a second reinforcing protrusion (35b) formed in the hub part and protruding in the axial direction.

Abstract: There is provided a valve holding member for holding a valve of a pipe coupling. The valve holding member includes a hub part 33 having a guide hole 34 for a valve stem, two arm parts 32 diametrically opposing each other on the peripheral edge of the hub part, and spring holding parts 31 formed at the peripheral edge.
