A skirt includes an upper end portion fixed to the valve housing above the outlet for guiding oil discharged from the outlet downward. The relief valve exerts a reliable defoaming function in response to an increase in the oil discharged from the outlet and an increase in an ejection pressure thereof while avoiding an increase in the size of the skirt. An annular recessed portion is formed on an outer circumference of the intermediate portion of the valve housing below the outlet.
