The enlarged portion has a predetermined length (1o) from the entrance to the exit or open end thereof, and comprises an annular inner wall of a predetermined diameter (d2) larger than that of the nozzle means as an enlarged passage communicating with the nozzle port; and an outer wall which is tapered or gradually decreased in width towards the exit or open end portion of the enlarged portion with a predetermined angle of inclination ( theta ). The wall of the enlarged portion has a predetermined thickness (t) at the exit or open end portion of the enlarged portion. The dimensional relationship of the enlarged portion is characterized by the following optimum numerical value: 0.67</=1o/d2</=1.875 (1) 3 DEG </= theta </=20 DEG (2) 0.42</=t/d2</=0.125(3) In this manner, the present invention can suppress creation of screech and enlarge the range of low noise level.
