The invention is concerned with a simple and inexpensive device for rapidly removing a first liquid medium floating on a second liquid medium, the first medium having a density less than the second medium and being immiscible therewith. The device of the invention comprises an immersible container means having a bottom opening, a valve for allowing the first and second media to flow into the container through the bottom opening upon immersing the container into the first and second media and for controllably preventing the first medium from draining from the container upon raising the container out of the media, a float member having a density greater than the density of the first medium and less than the density of the second medium, the float member being mobile in the container to move up and down with an interface between the first and second media. The valve is controlled by the float member to cause closing of the valve when the second medium has substantially completely drained from the container, thereby retaining the first medium in the container.
La présente invention concerne un dispositif simple et peu coûteux permettant de séparer deux liquides immiscibles de densités différentes. Ce dispositif est constitué d'un récipient submersible dont le fond présente une ouverture, d'un clapet autorisant le remplissage du récipient lorsque celui-ci est plongé dans les liquides à séparer et empêchant l'écoulement lorsque le récipient est retiré hors des liquides, et d'un flotteur de densité intermédiaire entre celles des deux liquides à séparer, se déplaçant de haut en bas dans le récipient en suivant l'interface entre les deux liquides. Le clapet, commandé par le flotteur, se ferme lorsque le liquide de densité supérieure a été complètement évacué du récipient, de sorte que celui-ci ne contient plus que le liquide de densité inférieure.
