Liquid supply nozzle.

摘要

A liquid supply nozzle is disclosed which is used for filling a container such as a tank with the liquid such as fuel. The nozzle comprises a cylindrical nozzle body including a base end portion having an open end (14) and a free end portion (16) having a closed end (18), and a plurality of discharge openings (20) formed in an upper area of the free end portion and through the wall of the nozzle body. The liquid fed into the nozzle body (12) from the base end portion is ejected via the discharge openings (20) upwardly, i.e. in a direction opposite to a liquid level, and then drops onto the level due to a gravity. A flow velocity when the liquid reaches the level is thus lowered as compared with an ejection directly toward the level, reducing a foaming on the level. The plural discharge openings divide the liquid flow into streams having a smaller mass when ejected, to further restrain the foaming. The nozzle may have within, a chamber for generating a vertical flow of the liquid in order to reparate and discharge gaseous contaminants from the liquid. <IMAGE>
