Abstract

Disclosed is an exhaust valve (10A, 10B, 10C, 10D, 10E), comprising a valve body (12), wherein the first end of the valve body is provided with a fluid inlet (15); the sidewall of the valve body is provided with at least one fluid outlet (17) in fluid communication with the fluid inlet (15) and a valve flap (20) for opening or closing the fluid outlet; and the axis direction of the fluid outlet (17) is inclined relative to that of the fluid inlet (15). Further disclosed is a compressor comprising the above-mentioned exhaust valve. The exhaust valve has a relatively low fluid resistance, and is able to significantly reduce the pressure drop in the compressor due to the exhaust valve, so that the operating efficiency of the compressor is increased.
