Abstract

Dispositif de régulation du débit d'un liquide comprenant une première chambre (60) ventilée de liquide, dont une extrémité supérieure d'entrée de liquide est pourvue d'une pointe creuse (46). Un obturateur (70) flottant dans la première chambre arrête la pénétration dans ladite chambre du liquide provenant d'un réservoir de liquide (12), ce qui crée une pression constante. Une extrémité inférieure de la première chambre est reliée, par l'intermédiaire d'un régulateur de débit (66) à une extrémité supérieure d'entrée d'une deuxième chambre (62) ventilée de goutte-à-goutte, dont l'extrémité inférieure est conçue pour être accouplée à un tube d'évacuation. Un deuxième obturateur (140) flottant librement dans la deuxième chambre, prévient la pénétration dans le tube d'évacuation du liquide provenant de ladite chambre, quand le niveau du liquide dans ladite deuxième chambre est égal ou inférieur à un niveau minimum prédéterminé et prévient la pénétration du liquide dans la deuxième chambre quand le niveau de liquide dans ladite chambre atteint un niveau prédéterminé.
