BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0009] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be understood that the specific implementation methods described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0010] Figure 1It is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the utility model.

[0011] Figure 2 It is a structural schematic diagram of the utility model in working state.

[0012] Markings in the figure: 1 is the bracket, 2 is the smooth hole, 3 is the adjusting screw, 4 is the fixing nut, 5 is the lifting and lowering adjusting nut, 6 is the U-shaped clamp, 7 is the first clamping bolt, 8 is the second clamping bolt, 9 is the valve body, 10 is the valve cover, 11 is the valve cover screw hole, 12 is the valve body screw hole, and 13 is the gasket. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0013] As shown in the accompanying drawings, the present embodiment provides a steam trap maintenance auxiliary device, including a bracket 1, a light hole 2 is arranged in the middle of the bracket 1, an adjusting screw 3 is arranged through the light hole 2, a clamping claw is threadedly connected below the adjusting screw 3, and the adjusting screw 3 is threadedly connected to the clamping claw and then fixed by a fixing nut 4 on the adjusting screw 3, and a lifting and lowering adjustment nut 5 is threadedly connected to the adjusting screw 3 above the bracket 1, and the lifting and lowering adjustment nut 5 is axially limited by the upper surface of the bracket 1.
