<p>A valve (1) for controlling a flow of solid objects (20) comprises an inlet (11), an outlet (12), a housing (10), and a valve body (13) rotatably arranged in the housing (10). The valve body (13) is rotatable between an open position and a closed position. The valve body (13) comprises a chamber (130) which is defined by an entry opening (131), by a circumferential wall portion (132) and by a lateral wall portion (133). The entry opening (131) has a geometrical shape which remains constant relative to the inlet (11) during rotation of the valve body (13). Fluid connection means are provided which form a fluid connection from the inlet (11) to the outlet (12) in any position of the valve body (13).</p> |
