1. An activation apparatus for a valve of an ejector of a chamber in an aircraft turbojet engine, which chamber is capable of variable pressurization, the apparatus comprising a first device constructed and arranged to trigger the opening and/or closing of the valve as a function of a triggering threshold that varies according to the altitude at which the valve is located, so that the valve is either at a fully open position or at a fully closed position as a function of a triggering threshold determined by the altitude, the first device including a first inlet to receive ambient air and a second inlet to receive air drawn from a high-pressure compressor so that, in use, the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor is sent through the valve to the ejector to create a Venturi effect in an open position of the valve, and is blocked by the valve in a closed position of the valve, wherein the first device comprises: a multiplier element that is configured to receive the ambient air and the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor at its intake, said multiplier element adapted to modify a pressure of the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor; andan on-off check valve that is configured to receive the air supplied by the multiplier element at the modified pressure and the ambient air at its intake. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor is received by the multiplier element and sent through the valve. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, comprising a second device constructed and arranged to progressively open the valve as a function of the altitude at which the valve is located, wherein the valve is movable from a fully open position to a fully closed position, the valve assuming intermediate, partially open positions as a function of altitude. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, comprising a second device constructed and arranged to progressively open the valve as a function of the altitude at which the valve is located, wherein the valve is movable from a fully open position to a fully closed position, said valve assuming intermediate, partially open positions as a function of altitude until a triggering threshold that depends on the altitude relative to a pressure differential exerted on the valve is reached. 5. An aircraft comprising the activation apparatus of claim 1. 6. An activation apparatus for a valve of an ejector of a chamber in an aircraft turbojet engine, which chamber is capable of variable pressurization, the apparatus comprising a second device constructed and arranged to progressively open the valve as a function of the altitude at which the valve is located so that the valve is movable from a fully open position to a fully closed position, the valve assuming intermediate, partially open positions as a function of altitude, wherein the second device comprises a piston whose movement is controlled by a pressure of the ambient air, the movement of said piston is forming a passage, between the piston and a housing of the second device, having a profile that varies according to the pressure of the ambient air, which passage allows the air drawn from a high-pressure compressor to pass through the valve. 7. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the air that controls the travel of the piston is the air from the high-pressure compressor of the turbojet engine. 8. An activation apparatus for a valve of an ejector of a chamber in an aircraft turbojet engine, which chamber is capable of variable pressurization, the apparatus constructed and arranged to trigger the opening and/or closing of the valve as a function of a triggering threshold that varies according to the altitude at which the valve is located, the apparatus comprising: a pressure multiplier element that includes a first chamber with an inlet to receive air drawn from a high-pressure compressor, an outlet and a bellows system, said bellows system movable by pressure of ambient air exerted on the bellows system so that a movement of the bellows system in the first chamber modifies a pressure of the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor received by the inlet; andan on-off check valve constructed and arranged to control a supply of the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor to the ejector, the on-off check valve including a second chamber with an inlet to receive the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor, an outlet in communication with the ejector and a piston that is movable between a first position in which the outlet is blocked by the piston and a second position in which the outlet is in communication with the inlet of the second chamber to permit the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor and receive by the inlet of the second chamber to flow toward the ejector, a movement of the piston between the first and second positions determined by a difference in pressure between the ambient air and the modified pressure of the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor outputted by the pressure multiplier element. 9. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the on-off check valve comprises a third chamber with an inlet to receive the ambient air. 10. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the piston includes a base that has a first side exposed to ambient air and a second side exposed to the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor at the modified pressure. 11. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the piston is biased against a spring. 12. An activation apparatus for a valve of an ejector of a chamber in an aircraft turbojet engine, which chamber is capable of variable pressurization, the apparatus constructed and arranged to progressively open the valve as a function of the altitude at which the valve is located, the apparatus comprising: a first chamber with an inlet to receive air drawn from a high-pressure compressor;a second chamber with an outlet in communication with the ejector, anda piston that is movable at a plurality of positions,wherein, in use, a passage is formed between the first and second chamber, said passage having a gradually variable section that is determined by a movement of the piston between a first position in which the passage is blocked and a second position in which the passage is open to permit the air drawn from the high-pressure compressor to flow from the inlet of the first chamber to the outlet of the second chamber. 13. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the piston is movable due to a pressure exerted by ambient air on the piston. 14. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the piston is movable with aneroid cells.
