GRAVITY FLOW WASTEWATER DISTRIBUTION DEVICE

摘要

A fluid distribution device (1) comprising a reservoir (8); a pair of buckets (2), and a plurality of outlet pipes (6) for receiving the fluid discharged into the reservoir (8). Each bucket (2) is pivotable under gravity between a first receiving position in which it can receive fluid and a second discharge position in which it can release fluid contained therein into the reservoir (8). The buckets (2) are arranged such that when one bucket is located in the first receiving position, the other bucket is located in the second discharge position. The outlet pipes (6) are divided into two groups of equal number. located at opposite sides of the reservoir (8), and each group is arranged to receive the fluid from one of the buckets (2) when in the discharge position. Each outlet pipe (6) in a group receives an equal portion of the discharged fluid from its associated bucket. This may be achieved by fluid directing means.
