[0016] 3. The present invention provides an auxiliary sealing element by fitting an auxiliary sealing element on the round tube on the right side of the housing. The auxiliary sealing element can provide an auxiliary sealing effect on the round tube on the right side of the housing to prevent liquid from flowing out.

[0017] 4. In this invention, a circular groove is embedded in the fixing block on the outer side of the left port of the second perforation. A fourth O-ring is inserted in the circular groove. The fourth O-ring can further seal between the fixing block and the shell to prevent liquid from flowing out.

[0018] 5. The present invention also includes a traction cleaning structure in the round tube. When impurities in the liquid block the outer edge of the through hole, the cap on the right end of the round tube can be opened and the first steel wire can be pulled back and forth. The first steel wire pulls the second steel wire, and the side support can clean the side of the through hole. The second spring can play a resetting role.

[0019] 6. In this invention, the outer ends of the support rods are pointed, and the pointed structure facilitates the cleaning of dirt on the inner surface of the through hole during use. Attached Figure Description

A round tube 7 is rotatably inserted into the right end of the blind hole 11. The left end of the round tube 7 is open, and its outer surface is in frictional fit with the inner surface of the blind hole 11. A sealing element that fits with the round tube 7 is embedded at the center of the housing 6. The right end of the round tube 7 is closed.

Support rods 731 are also fixedly provided at intervals on the side of the second steel wire 73 inside the baffle 74. The outer ends of the support rods 731 are pointed. When impurities in the liquid block the outer edge of the through hole, the end cap 71 at the right end of the round tube 7 can be opened (at this time, the first ball valve 81 and the second ball valve 91 are closed), and then the first steel wire 72 and the second steel wire 73 can be pulled back and forth through the end cap 71. The support rods 731 can be used to clean the side of the through hole 12. The second spring 75 cooperates with the baffle 74 to reset the steel wire.
