For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by specific circumstances.
[0028] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, a steam trap that is easy to maintain includes a steam trap body 1, a valve cover 2 is installed on the top of the steam trap body 1, a filter screen 3 is arranged inside the steam trap body 1, a first shell 4 is fixed on both sides of the steam trap body 1, a second shell 5 is fixed on both sides of the filter screen 3, a rotating rod 6 is fixed through the inside of the second shell 5, an elliptical plate 7 is fixed at one end of the rotating rod 6, and a locking mechanism for locking the filter screen 3 is installed inside the second shell 5. By installing the locking mechanism, the position of the filter screen 3 can be locked to prevent the position of the filter screen 3 from moving. At the same time, the removal and maintenance of the filter screen 3 are also very convenient through the locking mechanism, and the filter screen 3 can be regularly removed and cleaned to avoid the steam trap body 1 from being blocked or damaged and requiring major repairs or replacements, thereby reducing maintenance costs, simplifying the operation process, and improving the work efficiency of the staff.
[0030] The locking mechanism includes a moving plate 8 which is slidably connected to both ends of the second shell 5, a card block 9 is fixed to one side of the moving plate 8, a card slot 10 is provided at both ends of the first shell 4, the inside of the card slot 10 is slidably connected to the card block 9, a first spring 13 is fixed to both ends of the second shell 5, the other end of the first spring 13 is fixed to the moving plate 8, a sliding rod 14 is slidably connected to the inside of the rotating rod 6, a knob 15 is fixed to the other end of the sliding rod 14, and an insertion rod 16 is fixed to the side of the knob 15 close to the second shell 5, and the second A slot 17 is provided on one side of the housing 5, and the interior of the slot 17 is sleeved with the insertion rod 16. The insertion rod 16 is driven to disengage from the interior of the slot 17 by pulling the knob 15, and then the knob 15 is turned to drive the rotating rod 6 to rotate, and at the same time the elliptical plate 7 is rotated ninety degrees, so that the elliptical plate 7 no longer blocks the movable plate 8, and then the resilience of the first spring 13 is used to drive the movable plate 8 to pull the card block 9 out of the interior of the card slot 10, so that the filter screen 3 can be quickly disassembled and replaced, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the steam trap body 1.
[0031] Limiting rods 11 are fixed at both ends inside the second shell 5, and a limiting groove 12 is provided on the surface of the movable plate 8. The inside of the limiting groove 12 is slidably connected to the surface of the limiting rod 11. By setting the structure of the limiting rod 11 and the limiting groove 12, the moving trajectory of the movable plate 8 can be limited to avoid tilting.
[0032] Slide grooves 18 are provided on both sides of the rotating rod 6, and a slider 19 is slidably connected inside the slide groove 18. The other end of the slider 19 is fixed to the slide rod 14. By setting the structure of the slide groove 18 and the slider 19, the moving trajectory of the slide rod 14 can be restricted to prevent the user from using excessive force when pulling the knob 15, causing the slide rod 14 to detach from the inside of the rotating rod 6.
[0033] A second spring 20 is fixed inside the rotating rod 6, and the other end of the second spring 20 is fixed to the sliding rod 14. By setting the second spring 20, when the user pulls the knob 15 to drive the sliding rod 14 to move outward, the second spring 20 begins to stretch, and then when the insertion rod 16 needs to be reset, the force of the second spring 20 is used to drive the knob 15 to push the insertion rod 16 into the interior of the slot 17, which greatly saves manpower.
[0034] Working process:
[0035] The user can lock the position of the filter screen 3 by installing the locking mechanism to prevent the position of the filter screen 3 from moving. At the same time, the removal and maintenance of the filter screen 3 is also very convenient through the locking mechanism. The filter screen 3 can be regularly removed and cleaned to avoid the need for major repairs or replacements of the drain valve body 1 due to blockage or damage, thereby reducing maintenance costs, simplifying the operation process, and improving the work efficiency of the staff. The insertion rod 16 is driven to disengage from the interior of the slot 17 by pulling the knob 15, and then the knob 15 is turned to drive the rotating rod 6 to rotate, and at the same time the elliptical plate 7 is rotated ninety degrees, so that the elliptical plate 7 no longer blocks the moving plate 8, and then the resilience of the first spring 13 is used to drive the moving plate 8 to pull the card block 9 out of the interior of the card slot 10, and the locking can be achieved. The filter screen 3 can be quickly disassembled and replaced, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the drain valve body 1. By setting the structure of the limit rod 11 and the limit groove 12, the moving trajectory of the movable plate 8 can be limited to avoid tilting. By setting the structure of the slide groove 18 and the slider 19, the moving trajectory of the slide rod 14 can be limited to prevent the user from using too much force when pulling the knob 15, causing the slide rod 14 to disengage from the inside of the rotating rod 6. By setting the second spring 20, when the user pulls the knob 15 to drive the slide rod 14 to move outward, the second spring 20 begins to stretch. Then, when the insertion rod 16 needs to be reset, the force of the second spring 20 is used to drive the knob 15 to push the insertion rod 16 into the inside of the slot 17, which greatly saves manpower.
