Detailed implementation manners

[0025] The following Figure 1 in conjunction with the appended Figure 5 drawings describes the principles and features of the present utility model. The examples given are only for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.

[0026] A drain valve includes a valve body 1, a first valve core 2 and a second valve core 3.

[0027] For the convenience of installing the first valve core 2 and the second valve core 3, the valve body 1 includes an upper end cover 107, a lower end cover 108 and a valve body 109 connected by bolts. The upper end cover 107 and the lower end cover 108 are respectively connected to both ends of the valve body 109. To ensure the sealing requirements, sealing rings are respectively arranged between the upper end cover 107 and the valve body 109, and between the lower end cover 108 and the valve body 109. The sealing ring can be an O-ring or other sealing rings with better sealing effects. The valve body 1 is provided with a water inlet 101, a first water outlet 102 and a second water outlet 103 communicated with its inner cavity. Specifically, the water inlet 101, the first water outlet 102 and the second water outlet 103 are arranged on the valve body 109, and the first water outlet 102 and the second water outlet 103 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the water inlet 101. The inner cavity of the valve body 1 is divided into a first chamber 104, a second chamber 105 and a third chamber 106 which are communicated with each other. Among them, the water inlet 101 is communicated with the second chamber 105, the first water outlet 102 is communicated with the first chamber 104, and the second water outlet 103 is communicated with the third chamber 106.

[0028] The first valve core 2 and the second valve core 3 are arranged in the inner cavity of the valve body 1. Among them, the first valve core 2 is slidably connected in the first chamber 104, and the second valve core 3 is slidably connected in the second chamber 105. The first valve core 2 and the second valve core 3 have the same structure. The first valve core 2 or the second valve core 3 includes a valve core body 201, a rubber plug 202 and a nut 203. The valve core body 201 is made of a hard material (such as cast iron), and the rubber plug 202 is made of a soft material (such as rubber). The nut 203 is fixedly connected to one end of the valve core body 201, and the nut 203 is fixedly connected to the central position of the valve core body 201.

[0029] The screw rod 4 is successively divided into a smooth rod section 401, a first threaded section 402, a second threaded section 403 and a connecting section 404 from one end to the other end. Among them, the first threaded section 402 and the second threaded section 403 are respectively provided with transmission threads. The first threaded section 402 is in transmission connection with the first valve core 2 through the nut 203, and the second threaded section 403 is in transmission connection with the second valve core 3 through the nut 203. When the screw rod 4 rotates, the valve core body 201 moves up and down along with the screw rod 4, and the valve core body 201 drives the first valve core 2 and the second valve core 3 to move up and down. Refer to the attached Figure 2 , when the first valve core 2 slides to its lower limit position, the first chamber 104 and the second chamber 105 are mutually blocked; when the first valve core 2 slides away from the lowest limit position, the first chamber 104 and the second chamber 105 are mutually communicated. When the second valve core 3 slides to its upper limit position, the third chamber 106 and the second chamber 105 are mutually blocked, and when the second valve core 3 slides away from its upper limit position, the third chamber 106 and the second chamber 105 are mutually communicated. More specifically, the rubber plug 202 on the first valve core 2 blocks the communication place between the first chamber 104 and the second chamber 105; the rubber plug 202 on the second valve core 3 blocks the communication place between the second chamber 105 and the third chamber 106.

[0030] The valve body 109 is provided with guide grooves 110. The guide grooves 110 are respectively arranged above the first chamber 104 and below the third chamber 106. Guide protrusions 204 are respectively arranged on the outer walls of the first valve core 2 and the second valve core 3. The guide grooves 110 correspond to the guide protrusions 204 one by one, and the guide protrusions 204 extend into the guide grooves 110. Sealing rings are respectively arranged on the outer walls of the first valve core 2 and the second valve core 3. It should be noted that the axial position of the sealing ring cannot cross the guide groove 110 (that is, when the first valve core 2 slides to the lower limit position, the sealing ring of the first valve core 2 should be placed above the guide groove 110; when the second valve core 3 slides to the upper limit position, the sealing ring of the second valve core 3 should be placed below the guide groove 110), otherwise the sealing rings on the first valve core 2 and the second valve core 3 will not play a sealing role.

[0031] The upper end cover 107 of the valve body 1 is connected with a sleeve 5, and the sleeve 5 is designed to facilitate the formation of a rotational connection with the smooth rod section 401 of the screw rod 4. The screw rod 4 passes through the valve body 1 and snap rings 6 are respectively connected to both ends of the screw rod 4 extending out of the valve body 1. The snap rings 6 are standard parts used to limit the axial position of the screw rod 4 so that it can only rotate circumferentially and cannot move axially. Similarly, in order to ensure sealing, sealing rings are respectively arranged between the smooth rod section 401 and the upper end cover 107, and between the connecting section 404 and the lower end cover 108.

[0032] In this device, when the screw rod 4 rotates forward, the first valve core 2 moves upward to conduct the first chamber 104 and the second chamber 105, and at the same time, the second valve core 3 moves upward to block the second chamber 105 and the third chamber 106, and the first water outlet 102 discharges water; when the screw rod 4 rotates reversely, the first valve core 2 moves downward to block the first chamber 104 and the second chamber 105, and at the same time, the second valve core 3 moves downward to conduct the second chamber 105 and the third chamber 106, and the second water outlet 103 discharges water, so as to ensure that only one of the first water outlet 102 or the second water outlet 103 discharges water at the same time.

[0033] It should be noted that since this drain valve does not have a cut-off function, if there is a need to cut off the water source during use, it is best to use it in combination with a stop valve.

[0034] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
