Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of air-conditioning parts, in particular to a horizontal and vertical isolation valve. Background Art

[0002] When the air conditioner is running, condensation water is produced, which is usually discharged into the sewer or drainage pipe through the condensation water pipe. However, dirty gases or reptiles in the drainage pipe can easily flow back into the room through the condensation water pipe, causing odor, polluting the indoor environment, and affecting physical health.

[0003] Therefore, installing an isolation valve in the air conditioning condensate pipe plays a role in preventing odor, insects and odor, and is becoming more and more popular in the decoration industry. However, due to different installation environments, some condensate pipes directly enter relatively thin drain pipes at the ends, and isolation valves cannot be installed on the vertical part of the condensate pipe. This requires the isolation valve to be installed on the horizontal part (such as Fig.10 ).

[0004] However, when a conventional isolation valve is installed horizontally, the isolation valve cannot be completely closed, which affects the effect of preventing odor, insects and odor. At the same time, the setting of the water outlet cannot completely drain the condensed water, resulting in backflow caused by accumulated water. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a horizontal and vertical isolation valve to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
