Abstract
Provided is a valve module that includes a movable member and a support member. The movable member is constituted by a film elastically deformable by a fluid and having a first surface positioned on a side of a member having an opening through which the fluid passes and a second surface on a side opposite to the first surface. The support member has higher rigidity than rigidity of the movable member, covers a part of a region of the second surface, in which the opening is not located as viewed in a direction perpendicular to the second surface, and is fixed to the member.
