[0036] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 The present invention discloses a wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles, including a drainage pipe 1 and a drainage head 2.
[0038] One end of the drain pipe 1 extends to the outside of the vehicle bottom, and the other end is connected to the water-saving equipment to guide the wastewater generated by the water-using equipment inside the vehicle to the outside of the vehicle for discharge.
[0039] The drain head 2 is cup-shaped, including an opening 21, a drain end 24, a side wall 23, and a bottom wall 22. The drain end 24 is located at the end of the drain head 2 away from the opening 21. The bottom wall 22 is located at the bottom of the end of the drain end 24; that is, the bottom wall 22 is located on the end face of the end of the drain head 2 away from the opening 21. The end of the drain duct 1 located on the outer side of the vehicle bottom is installed into the drain head 2 through the opening 21 and is detachably and fixedly connected to the drain head 2. Multiple through holes 26 are formed on the bottom wall 22 and the side wall 23 of the drain end 24 for wastewater discharge and to prevent external foreign objects from entering the drain duct 1, ensuring smooth drainage of the rail vehicle and meeting the hygiene standards of the rail vehicle.
[0040] The wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles of the present invention discharges wastewater while blocking external foreign objects from entering the drainage pipe 1 by setting a drain head 2 at the end of the drainage pipe 1 and setting multiple through holes 26 at the drain end 24 of the drain head 2. This ensures smooth discharge of wastewater from rail vehicles and meets the hygiene standards of rail vehicles, thereby meeting the needs of carrying out medical and health affairs in rail vehicles.
[0041] The specific structure and principle of the rail vehicle wastewater discharge system of the present invention will be described in detail below through specific embodiments.
[0042] According to some specific embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 The through holes 26 located on the bottom wall 22 are evenly distributed on multiple concentric circles with the center of the bottom wall 22 as the center.
[0043] Each through hole 26 located on the side wall 23 is evenly arranged along multiple rows of wires along the length of the side wall 23; each row of wires is evenly distributed on the side wall 23 along the circumference of the side wall 23.
[0044] In this embodiment, the wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles has through holes 26 evenly and symmetrically arranged on the bottom wall 22 and side wall 23 of the drainage end 24. This ensures that the drainage head 2 experiences a balanced drainage reaction force during drainage, preventing it from tilting or shifting due to uneven force. Furthermore, the regular arrangement of the through holes 26 reduces the difficulty of machining them, improves machining efficiency, and lowers costs.
[0045] According to some specific embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 The wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles also includes an anti-detachment chain 3, which is a deformable long chain with one end connected to the bottom of the vehicle and the other end connected to the end of the drain head 2 near the opening 21, to prevent the drain head 2 from falling or being lost when it is disconnected from the drain pipe 1.
[0046] According to some specific embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 7 The wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles also includes a maintenance hook 4, which includes a hook end 41 and a connecting end 42. The connecting end 42 is connected to the end of the drain head 2 near the opening 21. The hook end 41 includes a hook structure for hooking the drain head 2 onto the maintenance ring at the bottom of the vehicle when it is disconnected from the drain pipe 1, to prevent the drain head 2 from shaking when it is disconnected from the drain pipe 1 and suspended below the other end of the anti-derailment chain 3, thus affecting the maintenance of the drain pipe 1 and its related equipment.
[0047] According to some specific embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 7 The wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles also includes a maintenance hook 4 and a maintenance ring; the maintenance hook 4 includes a hook end 41 and a connecting end 42; the connecting end 42 is connected to the end of the drain head 2 near the opening 21; the hook end 41 includes a hook structure; the maintenance ring is a ring structure and is fixedly installed at the bottom of the vehicle; when the drain head 2 is disconnected from the drain pipe 1, the drain head 2 is hooked onto the maintenance ring at the bottom of the vehicle through the hook end 41, preventing the drain head 2 from shaking when it is disconnected from the drain pipe 1 and suspended below the other end of the anti-derailment chain 3, thus affecting the maintenance of the drain pipe 1 and its related equipment.
[0048] Of course, when the inspection ring is connected to the bottom of the vehicle, the inspection ring can rotate around its radial axis. The direction of the inspection hook 4 can be adjusted by adjusting the orientation of the axis of the inspection ring, which facilitates the connection and improves the connection efficiency.
[0049] According to some specific embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 A connecting ring 5 is also provided on the outer side of the side wall 23 near the opening 21 of the drain head 2. It can be rotatably connected to the side wall 23 on a single axis, and the axis of rotation tends to be perpendicular to the plane where the side wall 23 is located. That is, the axis of rotation of the connecting ring 5 tends to be perpendicular to the tangent plane of the side connected to the connecting ring 5.
[0050] The other end of the connecting end 42 and the anti-derailment chain 3 are respectively connected to the connecting ring 5; specifically, the other end of the anti-derailment chain 3 and the connecting end 42 each include a ring structure, which is threaded onto the circumference of the connecting ring 5.
[0051] The wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles in this embodiment achieves multiple degrees of freedom for the other end of the anti-derailment chain 3 and the hook 4 by connecting them to the connecting ring 5, and simplifies the connection structure.
[0052] According to some specific embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 The detachable and fixed connection between the drain pipe 1 and the drain head 2 is achieved through the following structure.
[0053] At least one radially outwardly extending connecting post 11 is formed on the same circumference of the end of the drain duct 1 that extends to the outer side of the bottom of the vehicle. It is a cylindrical structure.
[0054] At least one mounting groove 25 is formed at one end of the drain head 2 near the opening 21 for connection with the connecting post 11; when there are multiple mounting grooves 25, they are located on the same circumference of the drain head 2; the number of connecting posts 11 is equal to the number of mounting grooves 25. That is, each mounting groove 25 is located at the same height of the drain head 2; each connecting post 11 is located at the same height of the drain conduit 1; each connecting post 11 corresponds to each mounting groove 25 and is connected to each mounting groove 25 respectively.
[0055] The mounting groove 25 connects the inner and outer sides of the sidewall 23 and includes an inlet section 251, an anti-detachment section 252, and a hook section 253. Specifically, the mounting groove 25 is an irregularly shaped through hole 26 located on the sidewall 23, comprising an inlet section 251, an anti-detachment section 252, and a hook section 253. One end of the inlet section 251 is open and communicates with the opening 21 of the drain head 2, extending along the length of the sidewall 23 towards the inner side of the opening 21. The anti-detachment section 252 extends along the circumferential direction of the sidewall 23, with one end connected to and communicating with the other end of the inlet section 251. The hook section 253 extends along the length of the sidewall 23 towards the opening 21, with one end... The other end of the anti-detachment section 252 is connected and communicated with the other end of the hanging section 253. The other end of the hanging section 253 does not reach the opening 21 and is located inside the opening 21. The mounting groove 25 forms the installation path of the connecting column 11. The connecting column 11 enters the mounting groove 25 from the end of the inlet section 251 located in the opening 21 and reaches the hanging section 253 through the anti-detachment section 252. The drain head 2 is hung on the connecting column 11 by gravity and the hanging section 253. The connecting column 11 is held at the end of the other end of the hanging section 253 by gravity. The length of the hanging section 253 and the length of the anti-detachment section 252 prevent the connecting column 11 from falling out of the mounting groove 25, thus achieving the anti-detachment effect.
[0056] In this embodiment, the wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles uses an anti-detachment structure composed of a connecting column 11 and a mounting groove 25 to securely install the drain pipe 1 in one end of the drain head 2 near the opening 21, and the drain head 2 is securely attached to the other end of the drain pipe 1. This improves the stability of the connection between the drain pipe 1 and the drain head 2, thereby enhancing the stability of the discharge system in preventing external foreign objects from entering the drain pipe 1. Furthermore, the connection between the mounting groove 25, which includes an inlet section 251, an anti-detachment section 252, and a hook section 253, and the connecting column 11 allows for easy connection and disconnection of the drain pipe 1 and the drain head 2 simply by moving the drain head 2 relative to the drain pipe 1 along the shape of the mounting groove 25, improving assembly and disassembly efficiency and thus maintenance efficiency.
[0057] According to some specific embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 7The drain head 2 also includes a cleaning section 27, which is located between the mounting groove 25 and the drain end 24. It is used to store water and to push the piston along the inner side of the side wall 23 of the cleaning section 27 toward the drain end 24 to clean each through hole 26.
[0058] The wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles in this embodiment improves the cleaning efficiency of the drainage head 2 by setting a cleaning section 27 in the middle of the drainage head 2 to facilitate the cleaning of each through hole 26.
[0059] According to some specific embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 4 The side wall 23 of the cleaning section 27 near the opening 21 has an inward taper from the opening 21 side to the bottom wall 22 side. The other end of the cleaning section 27 is cylindrical.
[0060] The end of the drain head 2 near the opening 21 is not cylindrical, and has the same diameter as the end of the cleaning section 27 near the opening 21; the end of the drain head 2 near the bottom wall 22 is cylindrical, and has the same diameter as the other end of the cleaning section 27.
[0061] The wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles in this embodiment is designed with a tapered shape at the end of the cleaning section 27 near the opening 21, which has a contraction tendency. This allows the end of the drain head 2 near the opening 21 to have a larger inner diameter, making it easier for the piston used to clean the drain end 24 to be placed into the cleaning section 27 inside the drain head 2, thereby improving cleaning efficiency.
[0062] According to some specific embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 7 The track wastewater discharge system also includes a one-way valve 6, which is installed in the drainage guide rail to prevent backflow into the vehicle when the water level is high in extreme external conditions, thus protecting the water-using equipment and sanitary facilities inside the vehicle.
[0063] According to some specific embodiments of this application, refer to Figure 8 The wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles also includes a water level sensor 8, a controller 7, and an alarm 9.
[0064] The water level sensor 8 is installed inside the drainage pipe 1 to detect the water level inside the drainage pipe 1 and generate a water level signal; the controller 7 is connected to the water level sensor 8 and the alarm 9 respectively, receives the water level signal generated by the water level sensor 8 in real time, and controls the alarm 9 to act according to the received water level signal.
[0065] Specifically, the controller 7 is set with an alarm water level threshold. It compares the water level signal with the alarm water level threshold and determines whether the water level in the drain pipe 1 exceeds the alarm water level threshold based on the comparison result. When the water level exceeds the alarm water level threshold, it controls the alarm 9 to sound an alarm, prompting the staff to clean the drain pipe 1 and / or the drain head 2.
[0066] Alarm 9 can be an audible and visual alarm device or a display.
[0067] Of course, the wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles may also include only a water level sensor 8 and an alarm 9; the water level sensor 8 is directly connected to the alarm 9 and controls the alarm 9 to operate.
[0068] The wastewater discharge system for rail vehicles in this embodiment monitors the drainage situation by setting up a water level sensor 8 and an alarm 9. It can detect drainage problems in advance and prevent sanitary and safety accidents caused by drainage failure.
