Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of indoor fire protection accessories and equipment, specifically to an indoor fire hydrant with controllable flow rate. Background Technology
[0002] Indoor fire hydrants are fixed indoor fire protection facilities in factories, warehouses, high-rise buildings, public buildings, and ships, supplying water to the fire scene through indoor piping networks. They are equipped with valves and typically installed in fire hydrant boxes, used in conjunction with fire hoses and nozzles. Currently, indoor fire hydrants are installed in fire hydrant boxes mounted vertically on the wall, making it difficult to turn the valves and apply force. Therefore, it is crucial to develop an indoor fire hydrant that is easy to open.
[0003] Different fire-fighting scenarios require different flow rates. For example, to extinguish small fires, a smaller flow rate can be used, which is also suitable for a smaller number of users. Therefore, it is very important to obtain an indoor fire hydrant with controllable flow rate. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To solve at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides an indoor fire hydrant with controllable flow rate, comprising an indoor fire hydrant shell installed in an indoor wall, a first connecting part for connecting to a water supply end formed at the bottom of the indoor fire hydrant shell, a second connecting part for connecting to an output end formed at the bottom of the indoor fire hydrant shell, a first communicating channel provided between the first connecting part and the second connecting part, and a flow control block movably connected to the first communicating channel, a first connecting rod connected to the flow control block, the first connecting rod extending from the top of the indoor fire hydrant shell and threadedly connected to the top of the indoor fire hydrant shell; a first fixing block fixed to the indoor wall, a second connecting rod rotatably connected to the first fixing block, an L-shaped connecting rod fixed to the first connecting rod, one end of the L-shaped connecting rod fixedly connected to the first connecting rod, and the other end fixedly connected to a vertical connecting member, a first groove formed on the second connecting rod, a first rotating shaft fixed between the two inner walls of the first groove, a cylinder fixed to the vertical connecting member, an elongated hole formed on the cylinder, and the first rotating shaft passing through the elongated hole;
[0005] The cross-section of the flow control block decreases sequentially or intermittently from top to bottom of the first connecting channel.
[0006] Through the above technical solution, the second connecting rod and the first connecting rod have a certain angle, which can facilitate the switching and flow regulation control of indoor fire hydrants installed in the wall. The second connecting rod and the first fixing block are connected by a damping connecting shaft, which can realize rotation limit. The cross-section of the flow control block decreases sequentially or intermittently from the top to the cross-section of the first connecting channel, which can adjust the distance between the outer wall of the flow control block and the inner wall of the first connecting channel, so as to achieve controllable flow.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the second connecting rod is fixed to a turntable located outside the first fixing block.
[0008] The above technical solution reduces the force required for rotation and increases the ease of adjustment.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the L-connecting rod includes two branch rods, which are integrally formed and are at acute or right angles, or integrally formed by an arc-shaped connector.
[0010] Through the above technical solution, the L-connecting rod includes two branch rods, which are at acute angles or right angles, or are integrally formed by arc-shaped connectors. The arc-shaped connectors can increase the tensile adaptability and service life, and can realize angle transmission, which is convenient for driving vertically installed indoor fire hydrants located in the wall.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the first connecting rod is integrally formed with a first sphere, and the top of the flow control block is integrally formed with a first spherical groove that mates with the first sphere.
[0012] Through the above technical solution, the first sphere can achieve universal joint rotation within the first spherical groove.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment, a first limiting ring is fixed on the inner wall of the first connecting channel, and an anti-suction ring is integrally formed on the top inner wall of the first limiting ring.
[0014] Through the above technical solution, the anti-suction ring is tangent to the outside of the flow control block, that is, the contact part is linear and the contact is small, which can prevent it from adhering to the first connecting channel.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the flow control block is provided with a sleeve with the same shape as its outer periphery. An extension is integrally formed on the sleeve. The flow control block has several movable cavities. The extension is inserted into the movable cavity. An elastic element is installed between the extension and the movable cavity.
[0016] Through the above technical solution, the elastic element can buffer the contact between the present invention and the first connecting channel when the device is turned off, rather than making a hard contact, thereby increasing the service life of the present invention.
[0017] As a preferred embodiment, the elastic element includes an outer spherical rubber ring and an inner spherical rubber ring integrally formed on the inner wall of the outer spherical rubber ring. Both the inner and outer spherical rubber rings are provided with a socket for inserting the extension element. The inner wall of the socket is provided with a snap-fit protrusion ring, and the socket is provided with a snap-fit groove ring that cooperates with the snap-fit protrusion ring.
[0018] As a preferred embodiment, a rubber connecting piece is integrally formed between the outer wall of the inner spherical rubber ring and the inner wall of the outer spherical rubber ring.
[0019] As a preferred embodiment, the rubber connecting piece is crescent-shaped.
[0020] Of particular note regarding the above technical solutions are the extension and the movable cavity, which are vertically oriented for easy installation, or slightly tilted towards their central axis, for example, at an angle of 10 degrees, to facilitate stability after installation.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are as follows: The present invention has a simple structure, and the second connecting rod and the first connecting rod have a certain angle, which can facilitate the switching and flow regulation control of indoor fire hydrants installed in the wall. The second connecting rod and the first fixing block are connected by a damping connecting shaft, which can realize rotation limit. The cross-section of the flow control block decreases sequentially or intermittently from the top to the cross-section of the first connecting channel, which can adjust the distance between the outer wall of the flow control block and the inner wall of the first connecting channel, so as to achieve controllable flow.
