Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model discloses an outdoor fire hydrant which is convenient for maintenance and belongs to the field of outdoor fire hydrants. Background Art

[0002] Outdoor fire hydrants are water supply facilities installed on the fire water supply network outside the building. They are mainly used for fire trucks to take water from the municipal water supply network or the outdoor fire water supply network to extinguish fires. They can also be directly connected to water hoses and water guns to discharge water for firefighting. They are one of the important firefighting facilities for fighting fires. The connection between the valve disc and the valve stem on the existing outdoor fire hydrants is fixed by direct bolts or axle pins. When the valve stem is deformed and damaged, the hole groove at the connection end will also be deformed and damaged, resulting in damage to the connection of the valve disc. A complete set of valve stem and valve disc structures need to be replaced, which is costly. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model aims to provide an outdoor fire hydrant that is easy to maintain, so as to solve the problem that the connection between the valve disc and the valve stem on the existing outdoor fire hydrants is fixed by direct bolts or axle pins. When the valve stem is deformed and damaged, the hole groove at the connecting end will also be deformed and damaged, causing damage to the connection of the valve disc, requiring the replacement of a whole set of valve stem and valve disc structures, which is costly.

[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model is realized by the following technical scheme: an outdoor fire hydrant which is easy to repair, and its structure includes a bolt body with a water inlet at the lower end, a valve chamber is arranged on the left and right parts of the bolt body, a water outlet interface is arranged on the output end of the valve chamber, a valve stem is threadedly connected to the valve chamber, a clamping type rotating valve disc is arranged at the bottom end of the valve stem to close the inlet of the valve chamber, and a reinforcing partition is arranged between the two valve chambers, the clamping type rotating valve disc includes a valve disc body and a rotating groove, the rotating groove is arranged at the center of the upper end of the valve disc body, the bottom end of the valve stem is rotatably embedded in the rotating groove, an annular rotating groove is arranged on the outer side of the bottom of the valve stem, and telescopic grooves corresponding to the annular rotating grooves are arranged on the inner walls of the rotating grooves on both sides, a clamping piece is movably arranged in the telescopic groove, one end of the clamping piece is rotatably engaged with the annular rotating groove, a reset spring is arranged between the other end of the clamping piece and the inner wall of the telescopic groove, and internal threaded holes communicating with the telescopic grooves are arranged on both sides of the outer wall of the valve disc body, a screw is threadedly connected to the internal threaded hole, and the inner end of the screw contacts the clamping piece.

[0005] Furthermore, a straight tool action groove is provided at the outer end of the screw.

[0006] Furthermore, the clamping member is an arc-shaped cylindrical structure.

[0007] Furthermore, there is a gap between the clamping member and the inner wall of the annular rotating groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the valve chamber inlet is communicated with the water inlet at the lower end of the bolt body.

[0009] Furthermore, the center lines of the two valve stems intersect in a V-shape.

[0010] Furthermore, the height between the top and the bottom of the bolt body is 25-45 cm.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the valve disc and the valve stem are connected in a clamping and positioning manner, and the clamping parts on both sides of the bottom of the valve stem are clamped and positioned. When the valve stem is deformed and worn, although the rotation groove at the connection will be deformed accordingly, due to the existence of a rotation gap, the clamping structure will not be affected, and the screw rod can still be unscrewed by a tool so that the screw rod breaks contact with the clamping part, and the restoring spring in the stretched state retracts, driving the clamping part to retract into the telescopic groove, thereby releasing the restriction on the annular rotation groove. Finally, the valve disc body can be directly separated from the valve stem, and the deformed valve stem can be replaced separately. The operation is convenient and the output cost is reduced.
