[0023] The accompanying drawings are specific embodiments of the present utility model. Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the utility model is a backwater prevention device using a hydrophobic membrane, including a gas-liquid mixing system, which in turn includes a gas source 3, a gas-liquid mixing pump 5, and a static gas-liquid mixer 2, which are connected by pipelines, and the other end of the inclined three-way pipe 1 is connected to an aeration head 4. An inclined three-way pipe 1 and a backwater prevention device 6 are installed at the end of the gas-liquid mixing system, and the inclined three-way pipe 1 includes a horizontal pipe 101 and an inclined pipe 102, and has a high drainage efficiency; the backwater prevention device 6 includes a shell 7, an inner vent pipe 8 is provided in the shell 7, and a spiral blade 9 is provided between the inner vent pipe 8 and the shell 7 as a water flow channel to accelerate the water flow emptying speed. The top of the shell 7 is provided with an external vent pipe 15, the top of the external vent pipe 15 is threadedly installed with an internal vent pipe 8, and the top of the external vent pipe 15 is provided with a vent window 11 through a flange, and the vent window 11 includes an upper frame 1101 and a lower frame 1102, and the upper frame 1101 and the lower frame 1102 are connected by bolts 1103, and the hydrophobic membrane 10 is clamped between the upper frame 1101 and the lower frame 1102, and a gasket 1104 is provided between the upper frame 1101 and the lower frame 1102, which is convenient for replacing the hydrophobic membrane 10, and the hydrophobic membrane 10 can adopt any kind of breathable and watertight membrane, which can achieve the effect of breathable and watertight. A water inlet 12 is provided on one side of the shell 7, and the water inlet 12 is connected to the horizontal pipe 101, and the oblique pipe 102 is toward the top of the backwater prevention device 6, and the bottom of the shell 7 is funnel-shaped, and a water outlet 13 is provided to accelerate the discharge of water flow. A floating ball 14 is provided between the water outlet 13 and the inner vent pipe 8. The floating ball 14 is used to balance the pressure in the pipe. The edges of the inner vent pipe 8 and the water outlet 13 are provided with wedge-shaped openings 16 that match the outer surface of the floating ball 14. A base 1501 is provided on the outer ring of the middle section of the outer vent pipe 15, a limiting ring 1502 is provided on the top of the outer shell 7, and a sealing ring 1503 is provided inside the limiting ring 1502.

[0024] When the gas-liquid mixing system works normally, the gas-liquid mixed liquid enters the inclined three-way pipe 1 through the inclined pipe 102 and is released by the terminal device such as the aeration head 4. At this time, the float 14 falls into the wedge-shaped opening 16 of the water outlet 13, thereby blocking the water outlet 13. The gas outside the air window 11 enters the backflow prevention device 6 through the inner ventilation pipe 8 and the outer ventilation pipe 15, and enters the horizontal pipe 101 through the water inlet pipe 12, so that the gas can be continuously supplied.

[0025] When the gas-liquid mixing system stops working, the negative pressure generated will suck water into the horizontal pipe 102 of the inclined tee pipe. The water flows into the horizontal pipe 102, causing the air pressure in the pipe to increase. The gas in the pipe is forced out by the air window 11, and the water flows into the backflow prevention device 6 through the water inlet 12. After being accelerated by the water passage with spiral blades 9, it enters the funnel of the outer shell 7. The overflowing water flow floats the float 14, and the floated float 14 blocks the wedge-shaped opening 16 of the inner ventilation pipe 8. The air path is blocked, and the water flows out from the water outlet 13. The pressure in the pipe can be balanced and the backflow can be prevented without installing a valve.

[0026] The preferred embodiments of the present invention disclosed above are only used to help explain the present invention. The preferred embodiments do not describe all the details in detail, nor do they limit the present invention to specific implementation methods.
