Abstract
This cyclone device performs diphasic gas-oil separation to remove oil from the recirculated crank cases of an internal combustion engine. Mounted such that it can move vertically inside the cyclone is a body () exhibiting symmetry of revolution, particularly one of cylindro-conical overall shape. The body () delimits, with the walls of the cylindrical collecting zone () and/or of the conical zone () for recuperating the liquid oil, an annular gap () such that the passage cross section can vary according to the self-adjusting heightwise position of the body (), as a function of the gas flow rate. The speed of the gases thus remains constant for variable gas flow rates.
