ABSTRACT:
A diffuser for use in a liquid circulation system having a tank for holding a body of liquid. The diffuser is connected to the return flow passage and provides an improved delivery of the returning liquid to the tank effectively minimizing turbulent aeration of the liquid therein. The diffuser may comprise a one-piece element having a frustoconical wall portion connected at its narrow end to the return flow passage with the wide end directing the returning liquid into the body of liquid in the tank in a nonturbulent manner. The wide end of the frustoconical wall portion may be provided with a tubular flange for further controlling the delivery of liquid into the tank. The frustoconical wall may be provided with at least one longitudinal slot which may widen inwardly toward the wide end of the frustoconical wall to provide further improved control of the liquid delivery into the tank. The diffuser may be threadedly mounted to a suitable adapter provided in the tank wall, or flange mounted to the tank wall as desired.
