A valve mechanism for a tube-type fluid container includes a valve seat portion having an upper opening portion and a lower opening portion; and a valve portion disposed co-axially with the upper opening portion. The valve portion includes a supporting portion attached at or below the lower opening portion, a closing portion for closing the upper opening portion, and a connecting portion connecting the closing portion and the supporting portion. At least either the closing portion or the connecting portion is resilient and capable of being deformed to open the upper opening portion when a fluid stored inside the container is pressed.
