The novel intake nozzle and valve structure includes a frusto-conical plug having an upper chamber and a lower portion provided with four specified longitudinally-extending passages surrounding a central core, each passage leading to an associated individual, unconnected, peripheral, longitudinally-extending passage of a four passage cylindrical conduit. Ports are arranged around the conical face of the frusto-conical plug and at at least two locations along its axial length, to communicate with the four specified passages passages. An apertured frusto-conical sleeve, is rotatably movably connected and is disposed about the frusto-conical valve plug, by means of a shaft disposed within the central, hollow core.
