1. A device for reducing the pressure and velocity of a flowing fluid, which is disposed in a fluid processing device having a body having an inlet and an outlet, a plug moved between the inlet and the outlet so as to adjust the flow rate of the fluid, a seat ring adapted to block the flow of the fluid in such a manner as to be brought into contact with the plug, and a cage contacted with the outer peripheral surface of the plug so as to allow the fluid to be passed therethrough in accordance with the upward and downward movements of the plug, wherein the cage has a plurality of discs each having a through hole with which the outer peripheral surface of the plug is brought into close contact, and the discs are stacked on top of each other in the center shaft direction of the cage, the stacked discs being adapted to form flow passage portions so as to form flow passages therebetween, the flow passage portions communicating with the outer peripheral surfaces of the discs and the inner peripheral surfaces of the discs corresponding to the through holes of the discs and being changed in direction in circumferential directions and vertical directions of the stacked discs, the discs being stacked by applying one or more flow passage portion patterns based on the number of direction changing times of the flow passages and the number of flow passage portions to the discs so as to control the increasing velocity of the flow rate of the fluid according to the degree of opening upon upward movements of the plug, each flow passage portion comprising a plurality of flow passage units each having an entry portion and a passage portion connectedly extended from the entry portion at a right or acute angle with respect to the entry portion, and the passage portion of one flow passage unit being connected to the entry portion of the flow passage unit of another disc stacked on the disc through the connection units stacked on top thereof, the width of the passage portion being larger than the width of the entry portion, and the passage portion having a vortex forming portion formed on the end thereof so as to form vortexes before the fluid enters the entry portion of the flow passage unit formed on another disc from the end of the passage portion in the state where the entry portion of the flow passage unit formed on another disc connected to the end of the passage portion is spaced apart from the end and side surfaces of the passage portion on the plane thereof.
