A check valve includes a tubular casing, an abutment member, a valve member and a resilient member. The abutment member is flexible, is disposed in the tubular casing, and defines a central opening interconnecting first and second spaces that are defined in the tubular casing. The valve member is disposed in the tubular casing and is movable between a blocked position where the valve member blocks the central opening to isolate the first space from the second space, and an unblocked position where the valve member is spaced apart from the abutment member such that the first and second spaces communicate with each other. The resilient member is mounted to the tubular casing and biases the valve member toward the blocked position.

1. A check valve adapted for use in a hydraulic system, comprising: a tubular casing extending along an axis and having a first inner surrounding surface that surrounds the axis and that defines a first space therein, a second inner surrounding surface that surrounds the axis and that defines a second space therein, and an annular first shoulder surface that interconnects said first and second inner surrounding surfaces; an abutment member made of a flexible material and having an annular section that clings to said first shoulder surface and that defines a central opening interconnecting said first and second spaces; a valve member disposed in said tubular casing and movable along the axis between a blocked position where said valve member blocks said central opening of said abutment member to isolate said first space from said second space, and an unblocked position where said valve member is spaced apart from said abutment member and is retained in said first space such that said first and second spaces communicate fluidly with each other; and a resilient member mounted to said tubular casing and biasing resiliently said valve member toward the blocked position; wherein, said central opening of said abutment member has a diameter greater than that of an opening that is defined by said first shoulder surface of said tubular casing such that when said valve member is at the blocked position, said valve member abuts against said annular section of said abutment member and said first shoulder surface of said tubular casing simultaneously; and wherein said abutment member further has a tubular section connected to said annular section and clinging to said first inner surrounding surface, wherein at least a portion of said resilient member is located within said tubular section of said abutment member. 2. The check valve as claimed in claim 1, further comprising an inner tubular piece having an end wall that is connected fixedly to an end of said first inner surrounding surface distal from said second space, and that is formed with an outlet through hole communicating with said first space, anda tubular wall that extends from said end wall toward said second space, said resilient member being configured as a compression spring, being disposed in said tubular wall, and being connected between said valve member and said end wall. 3. The check valve as claimed in claim 2, wherein: said tubular casing further has a third inner surrounding surface that surrounds the axis, that is disposed at a side of said second inner surrounding surface opposite to said first inner surrounding surface along the axis, and that defines a third space therein;said check valve further comprises an end piece that is connected fixedly to an end of said third inner surrounding surface distal from said second space for sealing up a distal end of said third space, anda piston member that is disposed in said tubular casing and that divides said third space into a driving space portion and a communicating space portion that is isolated from said driving space portion, said driving space portion being defined between said end piece and said piston member, said communicating space portion being defined between said piston member and said second space and communicating fluidly with said second space, said piston member being movable along the axis and having a rod portion that extends through said second space toward said first space to contact said valve member; andsaid tubular casing further has an inlet through hole that extends radially from said second space through a wall segment of said tubular casing, anda driving through hole that extends radially from said driving space portion of said third space through another wall segment of said tubular casing, said piston member being propelled toward said first space when a hydraulic fluid of the hydraulic system enters said driving space portion via said driving through hole, thereby pushing said valve member to the unblocked position against the biasing force of said resilient member and permitting another hydraulic fluid introduced from said inlet through hole to flow into said first space via said second space and to exit said first space via said outlet through hole. 4. The check valve as claimed in claim 1, wherein said abutment member has an opening-defining surface that defines said central opening, said opening-defining surface having an annular surface portion that contacts said valve member when said valve member is at the blocked position and that converges toward said second space.
