Abstract
A flow control valve is provided having a system of cup valves (3, 4) and a mushroom valve (6) mounted on a sliding rod (8), which valves alternately close one or more passages (5) admitting fluid in a first condition and an outlet passage (7) for the fluid in a second condition. The invention is applicable, among other things, to the feeding of a frying tank with hot oil followed by discharge of the oil cooled by the heat exchange with the foods to be fried, without a significant mixing between the hot stream and the cooled stream.
