Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of pipeline backflow preventers, and in particular relates to a pipeline backflow preventer and a method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The pipeline backflow preventer is a device composed of check components that can prevent the backflow of water in the water supply pipeline. It is a hydraulic control combination device that strictly limits the water in the pipeline to flow in one direction. It is developed when the backflow pollution of the drinking water pipeline is serious and there is no effective device to prevent backflow pollution. Its function is to prevent the medium in the pipeline from flowing back under any working conditions to achieve the purpose of avoiding backflow pollution. At present, the backflow preventer is mainly divided into two categories: low-resistance backflow preventer and pressure-reducing backflow preventer. According to national standards, the head loss of the low-resistance backflow preventer is less than 3 meters, and the head loss of the pressure-reducing backflow preventer is less than 7 meters. The low-resistance backflow preventer is composed of two independent spring-assisted elastic sealing check valves and an independent hydraulic differential drain valve in the middle pressure-reducing chamber. The pressure chamber of the drain valve is connected to the upstream water supply pressure. The three internal valves have no mechanical connection except the common valve body (that is, no common related mechanical failure will occur at the same time), and each valve is guaranteed to act independently, strictly limiting the pressure water in the pipeline to flow in one direction.

[0003] In the process of using the existing pipeline backflow preventer, the inventor found that after long-term use, the existing pipeline backflow preventer will have a poor valve seal due to excessive accumulation of impurities in the pipeline, and it is necessary to manually clean the inside of the pipeline.

[0053] In this application, when cleaning the pipe backflow preventer:

[0054] As the water pressure completely pushes the second valve 122 open, at this time, the second valve 122 drives the first adjustment plate 161 and the second adjustment plate 162 to separate from the recovery groove. When the clamping rod 167 moves to the clamping groove, the elasticity of the return spring 1673 can drive the clamping rod 167 to automatically pop out and engage with the clamping groove, so that the second adjustment plate 162 is automatically fixed. As the second valve 122 continues to move, the first adjustment plate 161 can be mobilized to separate from the second adjustment plate 162. The first adjustment plate 161 and the second adjustment plate 162 move outward along the two ends of the sliding rod 165. During the movement, the driving block 1652 can be driven to move, thereby the hydraulic transmission In this way, the support rod 1658 is squeezed to move outward, so that the support rod 1658 rotates the first cleaning plate 163 and the second cleaning plate 164 outward synchronously to squeeze and open, so that the cleaning sheet 166 fits with the corresponding surface to be cleaned, and when the water flows through the impeller 141, it can drive the impeller 141 to rotate, thereby rotating the adjusting ring plate 14. Once the second valve 122 is fully opened, the first cleaning plate 163 and the second cleaning plate 164 can automatically rotate with the rotation of the adjusting ring plate 14, thereby automatically cleaning the second valve 122 and the input end of the drainage chamber 12, effectively preventing the accumulation of impurities and reducing the sealing effect of the second valve 122;

[0055] When the second valve 122 is closed, the second valve 122 first squeezes the first adjusting plate 161 toward the second adjusting plate 162, so that the first cleaning plate 163 and the second cleaning plate 164 can automatically rotate and recover into the corresponding first adjusting plate 161 and the second adjusting plate 162 through the hydraulic transmission driving mode. When the first cleaning plate 163 and the second cleaning plate 164 are completely recovered, as the first adjusting plate 161 and the second adjusting plate 162 are close to each other, the lever 168 on the slide bar 165 can squeeze the connecting member 1674, so that the connecting member 1674 drives the clamping rod 167 to be automatically recovered, and the clamping fixation of the clamping rod 167 and the clamping groove is automatically released. As the slide bar 165 continues to move, the push rod 1681 can move toward the end of the corresponding slide groove 1651, so that the push rod 1681 is squeezed, and the squeezing of the push rod 1681 can drive the hidden rod 1682 to be automatically recovered to the hidden groove 168 through the synchronous member 1686. 7, so that the lever 168 can be automatically recovered into the hidden groove 1687, so that the lever 168 and the connecting member 1674 are automatically separated. Under the action of the reset spring 1673, the connecting member 1674 moves to one side of the lever 168, and the one-way rotation connection between the lever 168 and the hidden rod 1682 and the design of the torsion spring can make the lever 168 separate from the second adjustment plate 161 when the first adjustment plate 162 is separated, that is, when the slide bar 165 is separated from the end of the slide groove 1651. Under the action of the ejection spring 1683, 168 can drive the ejector rod 1681 and the lever 168 to pop out automatically. At this time, when the lever 168 moves to the connecting piece 1674, the connecting piece 1674 can rotate over the lever 168 by squeezing the lever 168, thereby not affecting the overall operation. At the same time, the addition of the torsion spring can enable the lever 168 to automatically rotate and restore to its initial state after the connecting piece 1674 passes over the lever 168, so as to facilitate automatic unlocking next time.

After the liquid fills the air sealing chamber 17, the second valve 122 is pushed open and the liquid is discharged from the drainage chamber 12.

[0058] S2 When the liquid in the drainage chamber 12 flows back, the second valve 122 can be squeezed to seal the input end of the drainage chamber 12 to prevent the liquid from flowing back, and the first valve 111 seals the output end of the water inlet chamber 11, and the liquid in the air sealing chamber 17 is discharged through the drain 15, so that the air sealing chamber 17 is airtight;

[0059] S3 When the second valve 122 needs to be cleaned, it is only necessary to rotate the adjusting ring plate 14 when the second valve 122 is opened, so that the first adjusting plate 161 and the second adjusting plate 162 are extended at the same time, and then the first cleaning plate 163 and the second cleaning plate 164 are controlled to rotate and open, so that the rotating first cleaning plate 163 and the second cleaning plate 164 automatically clean the connecting edge of the second valve 122 and the input end of the drainage chamber 12 respectively.
