1. Cage valve (10) comprising a valve housing (12) with a valve inlet (14) and a valve outlet (16);
a valve cage (20) which is arranged between the valve inlet and valve outlet (14, 16) in a flow channel, and a valve element (18) which is movably supported in the valve housing (12) in an axial direction (a) with respect to the valve cage (20);
wherein the valve cage (20) has a guide region, which guides the valve element (18) in the axial direction (a), and a throttle region, which has throttle channels (22) that are mutually spaced in the axial direction and are arranged in a distributed manner when viewed in a circumferential direction (u), so that different throttle rates can be set on a basis of an axial position of the valve element (18) relative to the valve cage (20) and;
characterized in that the throttle channels (22) are arranged such that the process medium flows exiting the throttle channels (22) are deflected in the circumferential direction (u) in a direction towards the valve outlet (16) and flow out in a bundled manner in the axial direction (a).
