A diffuser7is provided, in the inner periphery thereof, with guide grooves49for guiding the projections43of the orifice member16when the diffuser7and the orifice member16are coupled with each other, grooves41which mate with the projections43after the diffuser7or the orifice member16rotates, and key grooves51which associate with the key grooves47of the orifice member16. Keys45which are inserted into the key grooves47and51and thereby prevent the orifice member16or the diffuser7from rotating are also provided.
