Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a water spray plunger, and in particular to a water spray plunger which can utilize instantaneous pressure to spray water and thereby remove foreign matter in a toilet. Background Art
[0002] With recent rapid urbanization, people's living environments have undergone significant changes compared to the past. In particular, bathrooms, the places where hygiene is most crucial in daily life, have evolved from traditional toilets that were dirty and smelly to clean, tidy bathrooms equipped with ceramic fixtures, including more hygienic and cleaner toilets.
[0003] Typically, a toilet seat allows users to urinate or defecate while sitting. A certain amount of water is stored in the sink, which the user then drains into a septic tank. While toilet seats utilize an S-shaped siphon structure to prevent upward flow from the sewage pipe, this S-shaped structure can also cause toilet paper or foreign objects to clog the pipe, further clogging the toilet bowl.
[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2007-0009055 (hereinafter referred to as the "cited invention") discloses a structure for solving the blockage of a drain or toilet by pressing a closing member in a manner that receives the inlet of the drain, thereby using a piston to discharge the pressure inside the shell to the discharge pipe, thereby clearing foreign matter blocking the drain.
[0005] However, because the cited invention utilizes a piston to stably discharge the pressure inside the shell through the discharge pipe, it has the problem of not being able to easily discharge the foreign matter when the blockage position is large or the foreign matter blocking the pipe is too large. In order to solve the above problem, a means is needed to solve the problem of toilet blockage by outputting a large force at one time. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention includes: a main body, which is constructed in a tubular shape; and a pressurizing part, which is arranged inside the main body and forms a piston at one end that can move back and forth along the length direction of the main body; at one end side of the main body, it includes: a discharge port for controlling water injected from the outside; when the water contained in the main body is pressurized by the pressurizing part, the discharge port opens with the help of pressure and discharges the water toward one end of the main body.
[0008] In addition, at one end of the main body, there is also a siphon pipe insertion port, which is formed at an obtuse angle with the main body and has a size corresponding to the inlet of the siphon pipe of the toilet, so that the siphon pipe of the toilet can be inserted.
[0009] Furthermore, the opening and closing device is coupled to the discharge port formed on one inner end side of the main body by magnetic force, and is opened and closed by the pressurizing portion.
[0010] In addition, the discharge port is formed with a discharge hole inside, and the edge is formed in a plate-like shape corresponding to the shape of the inner side of the main body. The discharge hole is equipped with a magnetic annular flange on the inner periphery of the hole, so that it can be combined with the opening and closing device by means of magnetic force. In the opening and closing device, a connecting device formed in a rotatable manner by being combined with a hinge equipped on a side surface of the discharge port in the drainage direction is connected to one side surface of the opening and closing device, thereby being combined with the discharge hole by magnetic force at a specific position.
[0011] Furthermore, the discharge port is opened and closed by coupling the opening and closing device to a position inside the main body via an elastic member.
[0012] In addition, the other end of the main body also includes a water injection port formed in an upwardly inclined manner so that water can be injected into the main body from the outside.
[0013] In addition, the pressurizing part is formed in an internal hollow shape, and the piston also includes: a hole formed through-through along the length direction at a position corresponding to the internal space of the pressurizing part; the piston is formed with a piston valve on one side in the direction of the discharge port for opening and closing so that water flowing into the pressurizing part from the outside moves toward the discharge port.
[0014] Furthermore, the pressurizing portion may have a water inlet formed on an upper side adjacent to the piston, and the water inlet may allow water flowing into the main body and accommodated on the upper side of the piston to flow into the internal space of the pressurizing portion.
[0015] In addition, the pressurizing part further includes: a water inlet formed at the other end, allowing water to flow into the interior.
[0016] In the present invention, an opening and closing device is provided at one end of a main body portion formed in a tubular shape, and while receiving water flowing into the main body portion from the outside, a pressurizing portion arranged on the inner side of the main body portion is used to pressurize the main body portion containing water, thereby opening the opening and closing device provided at one end of the main body portion, thereby instantaneously ejecting pressure and water and thereby clearing foreign matter blocking the toilet pipe.

[0030] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0031] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0032] The water spray plunger 10 of the present invention is as follows Figures 1 to 17 As shown, it may include: a main body 100 formed in a hollow tubular shape; and a pressurizing part 200, one end of which is equipped inside the main body 100 and can move back and forth along the length direction of the main body 100.
[0033] At this time, the main body 100 is as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, a discharge port 120 for controlling water injected from the outside can be provided on one end side, and the main body 100 can open the opening and closing device 130 by means of the pressure generated when the pressurizing part 200 pressurizes in the direction of the discharge port 120 while receiving the water injected from the outside, thereby discharging the received water and the instantaneous pressure through the discharge port 120 toward one end of the main body 100.
[0034] The main body 100 is as follows Figures 2 to 3 At this time, in order to allow the piston 230 equipped with the pressurizing part 200 to be inserted into the interior of the main body 100 and move along the length direction of the main body 100, the shape of the interior of the main body 100 can be formed in a manner corresponding to the shape of the piston 230.
[0035] At this time, the main body 100 can discharge the water contained inside the main body 100 to the outside with the help of the pressure generated when the pressurizing part 200 moves from the upper side to the lower side inside the main body 100, and in order to smoothly discharge the instantaneous pressure and the contained water to the outside, the internal shape of the main body 100 is preferably formed in a cylindrical shape.
[0036] In addition, the main body 100 is as follows Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a water injection port 110 may be formed for injecting water from the outside into the internal space. The water injection port 110 may be connected to the main body 100 at the other end of the main body 100 and formed in an upwardly inclined manner.
[0037] Regarding the water injection port 110, there is no restriction on the shape used to inject water from the outside to the inside of the main body 100 and the method used to inject water from the outside to the inside of the main body 100. However, in order to ensure that the water injection port 110 can smoothly play the role of injecting water from the outside to the inside of the main body 100, it is preferably formed in a manner of being connected to the main body 100 and inclined upward, or formed in a longitudinal section in the shape of a "└".
[0038] In addition, the water injection port 110 is as follows Figure 6 As shown, the piston 230 of the pressurizing unit 200 disposed inside the main body 100 can be connected to the main body 100 at a position lower than the height when the piston 230 is raised to the highest position inside the main body 100. In this way, when water is received in the main body 100, the pressure transmitted from the pressurizing unit 200 can be smoothly transmitted to the received water through the piston 230.
[0039] Furthermore, the water contained in the main body 100 does not flow into the main body 100 only through the water inlet 110 , and the method for flowing water from the outside into the main body 100 is not limited.
[0040] At this time, when the main body 100 is not provided with the water inlet 110, water can flow into the interior of the main body 100 through the other end of the hollow pressurizing part 200. The relevant details will be described in detail through another example described later.
[0041] The main body 100 is as follows Figures 1 to 15 As shown, the siphon pipe insertion port 140 may be included at one end, which is formed at an obtuse angle to the main body 100 and has a size corresponding to the inlet of the siphon pipe 21 of the toilet 20 so as to be inserted into the inlet of the siphon pipe 21 of the toilet 20 .
[0042] At this time, the siphon tube insertion port 140 is as shown in FIG. Figures 2 to 3 as well as Figures 16 and 17As shown, because it is formed at an obtuse angle and is formed in a manner that can be inserted into the inlet of the siphon tube 21 of the toilet 20, when the siphon tube insertion port 140 is inserted into the inlet of the siphon tube of the toilet 20 and the water contained in the interior of the main body 100 is pressurized by means of the pressurizing part 200, the water contained in the interior of the main body 100 and the instantaneous pressure will be discharged into the siphon tube 21 of the toilet 20 and the strong pressure and water will be transmitted to the foreign matter 23 blocking the inside of the siphon tube 21.
[0043] At this time, since the toilet bowl 20 is formed in a shape that gradually narrows from the water storage bowl to the position where the siphon tube 21 starts, the siphon tube insertion port 140 may be formed in a shape that gradually narrows toward one end with an area corresponding thereto.
[0044] In addition, the main body 100 is as follows Figure 3 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the discharge port 120 may be provided at one end portion thereof with an edge having a plate-like shape corresponding to the shape of the inner side of the main body 100 .
[0045] The outlet 120 can be opened or closed by combining the outlet hole 121 formed inside and the opening and closing device 130. When the outlet 120 is closed, the water injected into the interior of the main body 100 can be accommodated inside the main body 100, and when the outlet 120 is opened, the water accommodated inside the main body 100 can be discharged toward one end of the main body 100.
[0046] Exhalation 120 Figure 5 As shown, it can be arranged in an area adjacent to the siphon tube insertion port 140 formed in the main body 100. The outlet 120 has a hinge 123 formed on one side corresponding to the discharge direction of the water contained in the main body 100. One end of the connecting member 124 is coupled to the hinge 123, and the other end is coupled to a side of the opening and closing member 130, so that the opening and closing member 130 can rotate at a specific position.
[0047] In this case, a magnetic flange 122 is provided on the inner periphery of the discharge hole 121, and the opening and closing device 130 is formed of a magnetic material. The opening and closing device 130 can be coupled to the flange 122 provided on the inner periphery of the discharge hole 121 by magnetic force, thereby closing or opening the discharge hole 121. For example, when receiving pressure transmitted from the pressurizing unit 200, the opening and closing device 130 can release the magnetic coupling with the discharge hole 121 by the pressure, thereby opening the discharge port 120.
[0048] At this time, the water contained in the main body 100 is ejected by pressure, thereby discharging the instantaneous pressure and the water toward one end of the siphon insertion port 140 .
[0049] As another example, the discharge port 120 may be Figures 13 and 14 As shown, the opening and closing device 130 can be connected to a position inside the main body 100 using an elastic member 150 to achieve opening and closing. For example, the opening and closing device 130 can be equipped with a first spring piece 131 on a side of the opening and closing device 130 facing the piston, and a second spring piece 132 can be formed at a position inside the main body 100 facing the first spring piece 131. The first spring piece 131 and the second spring piece 132 can be connected by the elastic member 150.
[0050] In this way, the outlet 120 can be maintained in a closed state by the elastic component 150 under normal circumstances. When the user pressurizes the pressurizing part 200 toward the outlet 120 when the water is contained inside the main body 100, the water contained inside the main body 100 will be ejected by pressure and the opening and closing device 120 will be pressurized by the instantaneous pressure and water to open the outlet 120, so that the water is discharged from one end of the siphon tube insertion port 140.
[0051] The pressurizing unit 200 is as follows Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a handle 210 may be provided at the other end, and a piston 230 may be provided at one end on the inner side of the main body 100. At this time, at least one piston O-ring 231 may be provided on the outer periphery of the piston 230 for sealing with the inner side of the main body 100.
[0052] In addition, the pressurizing part 200 can be equipped with a limiter 260 at one end of the area adjacent to the handle 210, so as to prevent the pressurizing part 200 from being inserted into the interior of the main body 100 for more than a certain length when the pressurizing part 200 is squeezed toward the main body 100 through the handle 210.
[0053] As another example, the pressurizing portion 200 may be Figures 7 to 12 As shown, the piston 230 provided at one end may further include piston valves 240A, 240B.
[0054] At this time, the piston 230 Figures 7 to 9 As shown, a side surface in the direction of the discharge port 120 and a hole connected to the pressurizing part 200 are formed. The hole connected to the pressurizing part 200 is formed in a manner that can be opened and closed by a piston valve 240A composed of a piston valve hinge 242 and a piston valve opening and closing plate 241, so that it maintains an open state at normal times. When the pressurizing part 200 is subjected to external force, that is, when the piston 230 moves toward the discharge port 120 of the main body 100, the hole connected to the pressurizing part 200 will be closed.
[0055] At this time, a water inlet 250 through which water contained in the main body 100 can flow into the pressurizing part 200 may be formed at a position adjacent to the upper side of the piston 230 in the pressurizing part 200 .
[0056] Therefore, when water is contained inside the main body 100 and on the upper side of the piston 230, the water moved into the pressurizing part 200 through the water inlet 250 can move toward the outlet 120 of the main body 100 through the internal space of the piston 230 when the piston valve 240A is opened.
[0057] Thus, when water is injected into the main body 100 , the water can be injected into the main body 100 regardless of the position of the piston 230 of the pressurizing part 200 .
[0058] In addition, as another example, the pressurizing portion 200 may be Figures 10 and 11 as well as Figure 15 As shown, it can be formed in a hollow tubular shape, and a water inlet 250 can be formed at the other end of the pressurizing part 200. In this case, the piston 2300 can connect the hole formed on one side of the discharge port 120 to the pressurizing part 200, and a piston valve 240B composed of a piston valve cover 243 and a cover support 244 can be installed in the hole.
[0059] Thus, when the user pours water through the water inlet 250 formed at the other end of the pressurizing unit 200 , the water moves toward the outlet 120 of the main body 100 through the piston valve 240B inside the pressurizing unit 200 instead of the main body 100 .
[0060] At this time, in the piston valve 240B, the piston cover 243 is positioned on the cover support portion 244 below due to gravity, so that water injected through the water inlet 250 can move toward the discharge port 120 .
[0061] At this time, when the user pressurizes the pressurizing part 200 to discharge water, the piston cover 243 will come into contact with the water and seal the hole formed on the piston with the help of pressure, thereby preventing water from flowing back toward the pressurizing part 200 when using the water plunger 10.
[0062] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0063] The embodiments described above are merely descriptions of preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by persons skilled in the art should fall within the scope of protection defined by the claims of the present invention.
