TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pressure flushing system, in particular to a water and air inlet structure of a pressure tank. BACKGROUND
[0002] In normal state, the pressure flushing system is in a closed state as a whole, and a certain amount of pressure energy is accumulated in the pressure tank. When the user performs the flushing operation (such as pressing the opening valve), the pressure balance of the system is broken, first the drain port of the pressure tank is opened, then the accumulated pressure energy is released to push the water in the pressure tank out, thereby generating strong flushing force. Compared with the traditional flushing system which uses gravity potential energy for drainage flushing, the pressure flushing system can achieve more effective flushing with less water, and is not limited by water level height, and is more flexible and advantageous in space layout.
[0003] The pressure energy accumulated in the pressure tank (also referred to as pressure tank) is formed by replenishing air while replenishing water after drainage: after drainage, the pressure tank is replenished with water and air at the same time, the replenished gas is accumulated above the inside of the pressure tank, the replenished water is accumulated below the inside of the pressure tank and the water level is continuously raised, thereby compressing the gas to form pressure energy, when the air pressure in the pressure tank reaches a certain degree, the air replenishment channel is closed and the air replenishment is stopped; At this time, the pressure of the whole pressure flushing system also reaches balance, the water replenishment is stopped, and the whole system returns to normal state. It can be seen that the water and air inlet structure of the pressure tank is the key to control the water level and air volume of the pressure tank, and is also the difficulty in designing the pressure tank in the industry. The existing pressure tank has the problem of excessive air volume, which causes the water and air to be out of synchronization during drainage, and produces bubbles and noise at the end of drainage, affecting the flushing effect and user experience.

[0045] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present application discloses a water inlet and air inlet structure of a pressure bag, comprising a fluid container 1, a venturi nozzle 2, a baffle 3 and a float 4;
[0046] The fluid container 1 is provided with a cavity 111, a water inlet channel 121 and an air inlet channel 122; the cavity 111 is provided with a fluid inlet 112, and the water inlet channel 121 and the air inlet channel 122 are communicated from the outside of the fluid container 1 to the fluid inlet 112; the inner wall of the air inlet channel 122 is provided with a limiting ring 123, and the ring of the limiting ring 123 is an air inlet 124;
[0047] The venturi nozzle 2 is arranged at the communication between the water inlet channel 121 and the fluid inlet 112;
[0048] The baffle 3 is axially limitedly matched outside the air inlet 124 to movably seal the air inlet 124 and not to be separated from the air passage 122;
[0049] The float 4 is arranged inside the air inlet 124, and the top end of the float 4 is provided with a convex column 41 movably penetrating the air inlet 124 and abutting against the baffle 3; the float 4 is lifted by the pressure inside the fluid container 1 until the air inlet 124 is closed, and the convex column 41 abuts against and lifts the baffle 3 to open the air inlet 124 before the float 4 closes the air inlet 124.
[0050] The specific embodiments of the present application are shown as follows.
[0051] The baffle 3 is made of soft rubber material and can be deformed to a certain extent under the action of atmospheric pressure, more easily adheres to the outside of the air inlet 124 to achieve the purpose of sealing, and prevents the air from entering in the initial stage.
[0052] The lower surface of the baffle 3 is provided with a ring of convex rings 31 protruding towards the limiting ring 123, which can improve the sealing effect of the baffle 3: when the baffle 3 adheres to the limiting ring 123 under the action of atmospheric pressure, the middle part of the baffle 3 will deform into the convex ring 31, so that the convex ring 31 adheres more tightly to the limiting ring 123.
[0053] The limiting ring 123 can be integrally connected with the air passage 122, which has higher strength; or the limiting ring 123 can be a separate accessory produced and fixed in the air passage 122 in a tight fit or other detachable connection manner, to achieve the effect of detachable and easier production of parts.
[0054] The outside of the air inlet 124 is provided with a gas-permeable baffle for axially limiting the baffle 3. In the embodiment, the gas-permeable baffle 5 is a rubber block tightly fitted on the outside end of the air passage 122, and a plurality of gas passing holes 51 are arranged on the rubber block. The rubber block provided with the gas passing holes 51 not only has the limiting function of the baffle 3, but also enables the fluid container 1 to be connected to the atmosphere, and is more convenient to install. In addition, since the baffle 3 is usually made of soft material, the gas-permeable baffle 5 can also be a protruding part integrally formed on the side wall of the air passage 122, and the baffle 3 can be installed by being hard pressed into the protruding part.
[0055] Further, the upper surface of the baffle 3 is a curved surface 32 with a certain arc shape, which can reduce the contact area with the gas-permeable baffle 5, thereby avoiding the problem that the baffle 3 cannot be lowered again after being in contact with the gas-permeable baffle 5 (especially when the air inlet 124 may seep water).
[0056] The input end peripheral surface of the Venturi nozzle 2 is sleeved with a first sealing ring 6, and is embedded in the output end of the water inlet channel 121.
[0057] The inner side of the air inlet 124 is provided with a sealing slope 125; the peripheral surface of the convex column 41 is sleeved with a second sealing ring 7; the second sealing ring 7 abuts against the sealing slope 125 with the movement of the float 4, so as to improve the sealing effect of the float 4.
[0058] The spring 8 is arranged in the float 4; one end of the spring 8 is embedded in the float 4, and the other end abuts against the inner side end of the air inlet channel 122, such as a limiting column 114 for sleeving the spring 8. The float 4 is usually made of light material, and can be lifted under the action of the internal pressure of the pressure package; the spring 8 can provide an auxiliary thrust for lifting the float 4, so as to prevent the water seepage phenomenon when the pressure at both ends of the float is at a balance critical point.
[0059] The fluid container 1 includes a shell 11 and a cover 12; the shell 11 is formed with the above-mentioned cavity 111 and fluid inlet 112, and a mounting groove 113 for assembling the cover 12, and the fluid inlet 112 is arranged on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 113; the cover 12 is formed with the above-mentioned water inlet channel 121 and air inlet channel 122, and a third sealing ring 9 is arranged between the cover 12 and the mounting groove 113. By designing the fluid container 1 as two parts, the molding of parts and technical features is facilitated, and the assembly of the Venturi nozzle 2 and the float 4 is facilitated. Even, the shell 11 itself can be split into upper and lower shells for separate molding, and finally the upper and lower shells are welded into an integrated structure to obtain the shell 11. In the embodiment, the cover 12 is bolted on the top of the shell 11.
[0060] The working principle of the present application is as follows:
[0061] Referring to Figure 5 As shown in the initial stage of water inlet, due to the acceleration of the water flow by the Venturi nozzle 2, a negative pressure is generated near the fluid inlet 112, and the atmospheric pressure presses the flapper 3 towards the air inlet 124, so that the air inlet 124 is closed to limit the air intake of the fluid container 1.
[0062] Referring to Figure 6 As shown in the middle stage of water inlet, after the fluid container 1 is supplemented with a certain amount of water, the pressure inside the fluid container 1 gradually rises, the pressure lifts the float 4, the convex column 41 of the float 4 lifts the flapper 3 and opens the air inlet 124, at this time the fluid container 1 starts to intake air (referring to the dotted line direction of air intake in the figure);
[0063] Referring to Figure 7 As shown in the final stage of water inlet, after the fluid container 1 intakes air for a period of time, the float 4 blocks the inner side of the air inlet 124, and the air inlet 124 is closed again to limit the air intake of the fluid container 1.
[0064] It can be seen that the structure of the present application realizes that the fluid container 1 can only inhale air in the middle stage of water inflow to realize air supplement, and inhale air is limited in the initial stage of water inflow to avoid inhaling too much air in the whole water inflow process.
[0065] Through the above scheme, the present application sets the baffle 3 outside the air inlet 124, when the fluid container 1 starts the initial stage of water inflow, the negative pressure in the fluid container 1 will make the baffle 3 close to the air inlet 124 to generate a sealing effect, thereby avoiding inhaling a large amount of air in the initial stage of water inflow when the fluid flow rate is fast, thereby realizing control of the total amount of inhaled air when the pressure package is supplemented with water and air, avoiding that the air pressure in the pressure package is too high, avoiding that a large amount of air bubbles is generated in subsequent water drainage, reducing noise, and further improving flushing effect and user experience.
[0066] The above embodiments and drawings are not limited to the product form and style of the present application, and any appropriate changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art to the present application shall be considered as not departing from the patent scope of the present application.
