Drain comprising:
- a body having at least one fluid inlet opening and at least one fluid discharge opening;
- a valve mounted so as to move in translation and in rotation relative to the body, the valve comprising at least one toe;
- a disengaging device comprising:
- a fixed guide, capable of being mounted so as to be fixed relative to the body;
- a movable guide, comprising at least one receiving housing for the at least one toe;
- wherein one element chosen among the fixed guide and the movable guide comprises at least one projection and the other element chosen among the fixed guide and the movable guide comprises at least one recess whose shape is complementary to that of the at least one projection;
- and
- a pressure spring, capable of urging the movable guide against the fixed guide so that the at least one projection cooperates with the at least one recess, so that the pressure spring is able to be compressed so as to allow the movable guide to rotate relative to the fixed guide, when an overtorque is applied to the valve while the at least one toe is still inside the at least one receiving housing.
