Abstract: An injection apparatus includes a plasticizing portion configured to plasticize a molding material, a nozzle configured to eject the molding material, and a changing mechanism capable of changing an orientation of the plasticizing portion and the nozzle.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a first flow path member configured to define a first section of a flow path, a second flow path member configured to define a second section of the flow path, and a valve unit configured to suppress backflow in the flow path. The first section and the second section are connected via the valve unit. The valve unit comprises a displaceable valve body and a first valve seat portion. The first valve seat portion is configured to close the flow path in a case where the valve body abuts. The first valve seat portion is configured to abut on the first flow path member and is made of a material having higher hardness than that of a material constituting the first flow path member.
