  • the glass container 2 can be held by the patient or can rest on a support 4a secured to the frame or structure 4.
  • the filling chamber 18 has a useful volume formed and delimited, on the one hand by a float 19 movable inside the glass container 2 under the action of the fluid received from the supplying means 1, and on the other hand by a bottom 20 of substantially frustoconical shape and by a essentially tubular wall 21 of the glass container 2.
  • the filling chamber 18 is sealed and that it is characterized by a useful volume which is variable as a function of the position of the float 19 inside the glass container 2.
  • the float 19 has an end face 19a of essentially frustoconical shape which can rest on the bottom 20 of the glass or on the surface of the liquid contained in it, so that the liquid which is introduced inside the container forming glass 2 is in no way in contact with the ambient air.
  • the glass container 2 is provided, according to a first embodiment shown in FIG. 1, with an ingestion conduit 22 integral with the latter and which opens out permanently into the filling chamber 18.
  • the glass container 2 comprises an ingestion means 23 constituted by a removable pipe and shaped to be introduced into the supply channel preferably up to 'at the end of it.
  • the supply channel 17 is provided inside the glass container 2, substantially over its entire height and coaxially with it, and that it has at one of its ends provided with the flared part 17a of a flange 24 preferably made of material and which forms a cover by fitting onto the free end of the wall 21 of the glass container 2.
  • the float 19 is mounted free in translation between the supply channel 17 and the wall 21 of the glass container 2.
  • the regulation system 11 is constituted, according to an exemplary embodiment, by a float 25 which is provided in the water column 10 and which rests freely on the surface of the liquid contained therein, this float 25 being moreover susceptible actuate during its downward movement a contactor 26 which controls the admission of the liquid into the water column when the liquid leaves a predetermined minimum level making it possible to ensure a constant flow rate in the pipe 12, and consequently in the filling chamber 18 via the dispensing nozzle 14.
