At least one restriction (R) of the terminal part of the fluid mixture delivery channel (20) is introduced upstream of each bifurcation (B), preferably at the branching point of the said bifurcation, this restriction having the function of recompacting the said mixture on the mid-line of the said bifurcation, in such a way that the distribution of the said mixture can be carried out in an equal way in the two following channels. The aforesaid restriction also has the function of progressively calibrating the pressures in the fluid mixture transport circuits, in such a way that identical quantities and qualities of mixture reach the various outlet holes (10), even when the transport channels (1000) are made with sufficiently large dimensions to ensure that the quantity of air required for effective spraying of the transported detergent liquid reaches the final outlet holes (10).
Bar for supplying a fluid mixture of pressurized air and detergent liquid in equipment for cleaning rubber-coated cylinders and inking rollers of printing machines, of the type comprising channels (1000) formed on a flat side of the said bar, on which a flat seal (12) capped by a cover plate (13) is extended, thus converting the said channels into ducts, the mixture being supplied to a first of the said channels which by successive Y-shaped bifurcations (B) are multiplied until each final channel supplies only one of the mixture supply holes (10) distributed uniformly along the whole length of the bar, characterized in that at least one restriction (R) of the fluid mixture delivery channel is provided at least upstream of each bifurcation (B), this restriction being shaped in such a way as to guide the mixture to the mid-line of the point of the bifurcation and to induce the formation of a vortex which homogenizes the mixture, so that the latter can be distributed with equal proportions of air and liquid in both channels of the bifurcation.
