Abstract

A self-regulating pressure throttle configured for use in a fluid conduit includes a throttle body having a series of segments. The throttle body includes an inlet end and an outlet end. The throttle body includes a cone portion and a rim portion. The cone portion tapers away from the rim portion from a first end to a second end. The second end includes a nozzle orifice. The series of segments can be formed on the cone portion. The series of segments are configured to move between (i) a first position wherein the nozzle orifice has a first diameter and (ii) a second position wherein the nozzle orifice has a second diameter. The second diameter is smaller than the first diameter. The series of segments can be configured to move from the first position to the second position upon an increased pressure flow of fluid at the inlet end.
