What 𣴾 means
The Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary compiled around 100 CE, defines 沱 as a river branch. The Kangxi Dictionary records 𣴾 as equivalent to 沲 in 1716; its entry for 沱 also preserves the word's senses of flowing tears and heavy rain.
𣴾 belongs to an extended CJK range (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters). If you see a box for 𣴾, the font lacks its glyph; the text still contains the character.

1Why does 𣴾 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
