ABSTRACT:
A fluid discharge device such as for use in draining an appliance, such as a dishwasher, into the sink. The discharge device is arranged to prevent splashing of the discharge fluid on the bottom of the sink and includes a divider wall within the discharge duct for dividing the fluid flow into a plurality of streams. The wall may be perforate to further cause a turbulent reduction in the longitudinal velocity of the discharging fluid stream. The duct may be provided with projections extending transversely into the fluid flow to further provide turbulent reduction in the longitudinal velocity of the fluid stream. The discharge device is adapted to be provided in a turned discharge conduit, such as an elbow, and is arranged to provide the desired splash-prevention functioning while yet effectively minimizing obstruction to the fluid flow so as to prevent blockage thereof as by food particles and the like carried by the discharging fluid. The discharge device may be a wall member adapted to be removably installed in an outer end of the discharge duct. In addition to acting as a flow divider, the discharge device further functions as a flow straightener in delivering the fluid therefrom.
