Claim:
1. A linear flow regulating apparatus for an intravenous infusion set, the apparatus comprising: a flow channel unit having a rectangular cross-section, and a rectangular shaped flow passage area inside the flow channel unit so as to allow that allow a solution to flow therethrough; a control unit that is adapted to be put in or taken out of one side of the flow channel unit to vary a width of the flow passage area; and an adjustment unit that is formed at a contact region between the flow channel unit and the control unit to adjust a moving distance of the control unit along a width direction of the flow channel unit, wherein the width direction is transverse to a flow direction of the solution, wherein the control unit is configured to by uniformly decreasing the flow passage area of the flow channel unit by being inserted into the flow channel unit along the width of the flow channel unit towards an opposite side of the one side of the flow channel unit, and wherein the control unit is configured to regulate the flow rate of the solution to be linearly proportional to the width of the flow passage area.
