Aerating nozzle for tap

Abstract

The present invention concerns a tap nozzle (2) comprising: •—a nozzle inlet (21) arranged to be connected to a tap outlet for allowing a liquid to flow from the tap outlet into the nozzle (2); •—a nozzle outlet (22) in fluid communication with the nozzle inlet (21) and arranged to allow the liquid to flow out from the nozzle, so as to form a liquid flow circuit; •—a paddle wheel (23) rotatably mounted between the nozzle inlet and the nozzle outlet around a flow axis determined by the flow of the liquid in the nozzle, the paddle wheel comprising a plurality of fins (230) extending radially from the flow axis; •—a planar grid (24) disposed between the paddle wheel (23) and the nozzle outlet (22) in a plane transverse to the to flow axis; an air flow circuit allowing an air flow to circulate from the exterior of the nozzle to the interior of the nozzle so as to maximize the liquid oxygenation in the nozzle, the air flow circuit being at least partially distinct from the liquid flow circuit.
