Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a floor drain for pipeline drainage, in particular to a floor drain with an easy-to-open grate. Background Art

[0002] The floor drain is an important interface connecting the drainage pipe system and the indoor floor. As an important component of the drainage system in a house, its performance will directly affect the indoor air quality and also play a very important role in controlling the odor in the bathroom. The structure of the floor drain usually includes a floor drain body, a sink arranged on the top of the floor drain body, a drain hole arranged in the sink, and a grate placed in the sink. After the floor drain has been used for a period of time, hair or debris mixed in the sewage will gradually accumulate in the floor drain, resulting in slow drainage of the floor drain or even blockage. Therefore, users need to clean the floor drain from time to time. However, in the process of cleaning the floor drain, it is usually necessary to remove the grate from the sink of the floor drain body in order to clean it more thoroughly. The existing grate is tightly fitted to the sink, making it difficult to remove the grate from the sink with fingers, that is, the grate placed in the sink is difficult to open and remove by conventional means, which brings great inconvenience to users in cleaning and use. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a grate easy-to-open floor drain which can open the grate easily and labor-savingly and take it out from the lower sink.

[0004] The technical problem of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A grate easy-to-open floor drain comprises a floor drain body, a lower water trough arranged on the top of the floor drain body, a drain hole arranged in the lower water trough and a grate placed in the lower water trough, wherein a positioning block is provided at any angle of the lower water trough, and a pressing area is formed by the positioning block and the angle; the grate is placed in the lower water trough and supported by the positioning block, and one of the corners of the grate is located just above the pressing area, and one of the corners of the grate in the pressing area is pressed downward, thereby driving the other opposite corner of the grate to bend upward and open.

[0006] Any angle of the lower water tank is formed by the intersection of two adjacent tank walls, and positioning blocks are respectively provided on the two adjacent tank walls, and the two positioning blocks and the angle are enclosed together to form a pressing area.

[0007] The corner of the grate above the pressing area is pressed downward, and the grate is supported by two positioning blocks and rotates around the connecting line between the two positioning blocks, thereby driving the other corner of the grate opposite to form an upward tilt.

[0008] The other side corner of the grate is tilted upward and separated from the lower sink to form an open space with the floor drain body, so that it is convenient to insert fingers into the open space to take out the grate.

[0009] The lower water trough is a quadrilateral trough, and the corresponding grate is a quadrilateral grate. The four corners of the lower water trough are each provided with a pressing area surrounded by two positioning blocks. The grate is placed in the lower water trough and supported by the positioning blocks at the four corners, and the four corners of the grate correspond one by one above the four pressing areas.

[0010] A reserved gap is arranged between the outer edge of the grate and the groove wall of the lower water groove.

[0011] The grate is provided with densely distributed water trough holes.

[0012] The grate is placed in the lower water tank, and the top surface of the grate is flush with the top surface of the lower water tank or is lower than the top surface of the lower water tank.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model mainly provides a positioning block at any angle of the sink, and the positioning block and the angle together form a pressing area, and the grate is placed in the sink and supported by the positioning block, so that one of the corners of the grate is just above the pressing area; in this way, only one of the corners of the grate in the pressing area needs to be pressed downward to drive the other opposite corner of the grate to open upward, so that the grate can be easily and labor-savingly taken out of the sink; obviously, the use of this original grate installation structure can bring great convenience to users in cleaning and using the floor drain. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0014] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the utility model (the other side corner opposite to the grate is formed to bend upward and open).

[0015] Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the structure of the grate leaving the sink.

[0016] Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the floor drain body. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below according to the above-mentioned drawings.

[0018] like Figure 1~Figure 3 As shown, 1. floor drain body, 11. sink, 12. drain hole, 13. positioning block, 2. grate, 21. sink hole, 3. reserved gap, 4. open space, 5. pressing area.

[0019] A grate easy-to-open floor drain, such as Figure 1As shown, it is an important interface for connecting the drainage pipe system with the indoor floor. Its structure is mainly composed of a floor drain body 1, a lower water tank 11 arranged on the top of the floor drain body, a drain hole 12 arranged in the lower water tank and a grate 2 placed in the lower water tank.

[0020] The grate 2 is provided with densely distributed lower sink holes 21. The grate 2 is placed in the lower sink 11. The top surface of the grate is flush with the top surface of the lower sink 11 or lower than the top surface of the lower sink 11. These structural designs are helpful to quickly drain the accumulated water on the indoor floor.

[0021] Meanwhile, the lower trough 11 and the grate 2 can adopt various matching shapes according to actual use needs. For example, the lower trough 11 of this embodiment is a quadrilateral trough having four angles, and the corresponding grate 2 is a quadrilateral grate having four corners.

[0022] Any angle of the lower water tank 11 is formed by the intersection of two adjacent groove walls, and a positioning block 13 is provided at any angle of the lower water tank 11, and the positioning block and the angle together enclose a pressing area 5. Figure 3 As shown, positioning blocks 13 are respectively provided on two adjacent groove walls, and the pressing area 5 is formed by the two positioning blocks and the angle.

[0023] Moreover, a pressing area 5 enclosed by two positioning blocks 13 is provided at the four corners of the lower water tank 11, that is, a pressing area 5 is provided at each corner of the quadrilateral lower water tank; therefore, the grate 2 is placed in the lower water tank 11, and can be supported by the eight positioning blocks 13 at the four corners, and the four corners of the grate 2 correspond one by one above the four pressing areas 5.

[0024] In this way, by pressing down on one of the corners of the grate 2 in any pressing area 5, the grate will be supported by the two positioning blocks 13 in the pressing area 5 here, and rotate around the line connecting the two positioning blocks 13 as the axis, thereby driving the other opposite corner of the grate 2 to form an upward tilt, that is, after the other corner is tilted upward, it will be separated from the lower sink 11 and form an open space 4 with the floor drain body 1, so that it is convenient for fingers to reach into the open space 4 to easily and labor-savingly remove the grate 2.

[0025] In addition, a reserved gap 3 is provided between the outer edge of the grate 2 and the wall of the lower water tank 11, so that the other side corner of the grate 2 will not be blocked by the wall when it is tilted upward.

[0026] Obviously, the use of this original grate installation structure not only ensures the aesthetic appearance of the floor drain, but also brings great convenience to users in cleaning and using the floor drain, thereby greatly improving the market competitiveness of the product.

[0027] The above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that any structural design equivalent to this embodiment should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
