[0025] In the cold winter in northern regions, water supply pipes are prone to freezing, causing water outages, affecting the normal water use of water users. Traditional thawing methods include installing electric heating cables, rubber and plastic insulation, watering with boiling water, baking pipes with fire, replacing pipes, etc. If the buried pipes are frozen, they must be excavated and thawed in sections by heating, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources. Therefore, traditional thawing methods cannot economically and efficiently thaw the buried frozen water supply pipes. It is urgent to develop a direct drinking water pipe steam thawing device.
[0026] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies in the prior art and to provide a direct drinking water pipe steam thawing device to achieve efficient thawing of frozen water pipes.
[0027] See also Figure 1 , the utility model provides a direct drinking water pipe steam thawing device. The direct drinking water pipe steam thawing device comprises: a steam tank 1, an electric heating device 2 and a steam spray gun 3; the tank wall of the steam tank 1 is provided with a water injection port 11, a drain valve 12, an observation liquid level gauge 13, a pressure gauge and an electric heating controller 14, and a safety valve 15 is provided on the head of the steam tank 1; wherein the electric heating controller 14 is connected to the electric heating device 2, the water injection port 11 is provided at the upper end of the tank wall, and the drain valve 12 is provided at the lower end of the tank wall; the electric heating device 2 is provided at the bottom of the tank of the steam tank 1; the steam spray gun 3 is connected to the steam tank 1 through a pipe and is provided at the uppermost end of the tank wall of the steam tank 1. The electric heating device 2 is a heating wire. A fire stove rack 4 is also provided on the bottom surface of the steam tank 1. The bottom of the fire stove rack 4 is provided with the bottom surface of the steam tank 1.
[0028] The application method is to inject water through the water injection port 11 and check the liquid level gauge 13. When the observed liquid level reaches the preset liquid level, stop adding water. Start the electric heating controller 14, and the electric heating device 2 heats the water in the steam tank 1. When the pressure gauge reaches the preset pressure, aim the steam spray gun 3 at the water pipe that needs to be thawed to spray steam. It should be noted that a safety valve 15 is provided on the head of the steam tank 1, which can be used for safe pressure relief when the steam pressure is too high. In addition, for easy movement, a universal wheel 5 is provided.
[0029] After use, the water can be drained through the drain valve 12. In practical applications, the entire direct drinking water pipeline steam thawing device should be prevented from tilting to prevent water from flowing into the steam spray gun 3. Alternatively, a valve is provided on the connecting pipe between the steam spray gun 3 and the steam tank 1 to prevent water from flowing into the steam spray gun 3. Furthermore, a vacuum pump can be provided at the steam spray gun 3 to quickly extract steam.
[0030] During normal use, the direct drinking water pipe steam thawing device is driven to operate by electrical connection. However, in some cases, if it is impossible to connect to electricity, the steam tank 1 is heated by burning a fire on the fire grate 4.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, a handle is provided on the steam tank 1. The purpose of providing the handle is to make it more convenient to lift the entire drinking water pipe steam thawing device.
[0032] In a preferred embodiment, a counterweight is provided at the middle position of the bottom of the steam tank 1. The purpose of providing the counterweight is to prevent the entire drinking water pipe steam thawing device from tilting.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the direct drinking water pipe steam thawing device further comprises: an extension hose connected to the steam spray gun 3. It should be understood that sometimes it is necessary to extend the water vapor deep into the water supply pipe, for example, extend the water vapor 2 meters into the water supply pipe to spray the water vapor on the pipe, but the steam spray gun 3 cannot enter. Therefore, it is necessary to connect the steam spray gun 3 to the extension hose.
[0034] The utility model discloses a direct drinking water pipe steam thawing device, which heats water to generate high-pressure steam by arranging an electric heating device 2 at the bottom of a steam tank 1, and then sprays the high-pressure steam through a steam spray gun 3 to melt ice in the water pipe. Therefore, the utility model can thaw frozen water pipes efficiently and simply.
[0035] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model is described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. These modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the utility model.
