Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water outlet joints, in particular to a water outlet joint for a gas water heater. Background Art
[0002] The water outlet joint of a gas water heater usually refers to the component that connects the water outlet pipe of the water heater, which is usually located at the bottom or side of the water heater.
[0003] The water outlet joint usually has a leak-proof design to ensure that hot water does not leak out, and usually has anti-corrosion properties to ensure long-term reliable use. When installing or replacing a gas water heater, it is very important to connect the water outlet joint correctly to ensure the normal operation and safe use of the water heater.
[0004] However, in the prior art, the existing water outlet joint of the water heater needs to use two wrenches to limit the tightening of the mounting bolts and the mounting nuts respectively during installation, which makes it inconvenient for the installation workers to operate. At the same time, the water outlet joint cannot monitor the water output during use, resulting in the user being unable to monitor the water flow, causing the user to be unable to determine whether the water output of the water heater is normal, or whether the water heater is faulty or blocked.

[0007] Preferably, a sealing ring is sleeved on the upper end of the connecting joint, and the sealing ring fits tightly with the bottom of the water outlet joint body. The sealing gasket between the connecting joint and the water outlet joint body improves the sealing of the connection to avoid water leakage.
[0008] Preferably, a pressure relief valve connecting elbow is inserted on one side of the water outlet joint body, and a pressure relief valve is installed at the bottom of the pressure relief valve connecting elbow. When the pressure of the water outlet joint body is too high, the water outlet joint body can be protected from pressure relief, thereby avoiding damage and leakage of the water outlet joint body and the connection between the water outlet joint body and the pipeline, and improving the safety of the water heater.
[0009] Preferably, a retaining spring installation groove is installed on the surface of the water outlet joint body, a retaining spring is inserted inside the retaining spring installation groove, the retaining spring is clamped with the surface of the pressure relief valve connecting elbow, and the retaining spring is clamped with the retaining spring installation groove and the pressure relief valve connecting elbow, which facilitates the quick installation of the pressure relief valve connecting elbow.
[0010] Preferably, the interior of the No. 1 nut mounting groove and the No. 2 nut mounting groove are both clamped with the external mounting nut, and the mounting nuts are placed in the No. 1 nut mounting groove and the No. 2 nut mounting groove respectively. By clamping the mounting nuts in the No. 1 nut mounting groove and the No. 2 nut mounting groove in advance, it is convenient to use bolts to fix and install the water outlet joint body later.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the utility model are:
[0012] 1. In the utility model, the mounting nuts are respectively placed in the No. 1 nut mounting groove and the No. 2 nut mounting groove.

The water flow sensor is connected and installed with the water outlet joint body through the flow meter mounting port. The water outlet joint body is connected to one end of the external pipe and the other end of the external pipe through the connecting joint. The sealing of the connection is improved by the sealing gasket between the connecting joint and the water outlet joint body to avoid water leakage. During the use of the water outlet joint body, the water flow sensor connected to the flow meter mounting port can monitor the water volume, which is convenient for personnel to monitor the water volume.
[0013] 2. In the utility model, the pressure relief valve connecting elbow is plugged into the water outlet joint body, and the pressure relief valve is installed at the bottom of the water outlet joint body. When the pressure of the water outlet joint body is too high, the water outlet joint body can be protected from pressure relief, so as to avoid damage and leakage of the water outlet joint body and the connection between the water outlet joint body and the pipeline, and at the same time improve the safety of the water heater. The retaining spring, the retaining spring installation groove and the pressure relief valve connecting elbow are clamped together, so that the pressure relief valve connecting elbow can be quickly installed.
