1. A microfluidic accumulating and proportioning component, comprising:
- a reservoir (15) including an aeration port (26) and an outlet (30) disposed below for a liquid, capillary cavities (20′
, 20″
) in the reservoir (15), a displacement chamber (34) which is disposed at least partly at the same level as the reservoir (15), with an inlet (36) disposed above and a proportioning outlet (9) disposed below for a liquid, and a rising capillary channel (22) connecting the outlet (30) of the reservoir (15) to the inlet (36) of the displacement chamber (34).
