Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of drainage, and relates to a panel and a floor drain assembly having the same. Background Technique

[0002] With the improvement of living conditions, the traditional-structured floor drain can no longer meet the requirements. According to different needs, various floor drain structures have emerged. For example, the utility model patent with the name of filtering panel and floor drain having the same, applied by the applicant on January 8, 2022, with the application number 2022200456669, records a filtering panel, which includes at least one filtering part. Filtering holes are opened on the filtering part, and the filtering holes penetrate through the filtering part. It also includes a connecting part. The filtering part and the connecting part are bent and connected. The connecting part forms a hollow groove, and the hollow groove starts from the connection between the connecting part and the filtering part. This filtering panel has two modes: normal use and reverse use. When used normally, the filtering holes are in the hidden mode, reducing the gap of the installation opening of the floor drain housing, preventing the gap from being too large and causing accidental injury when stepping on it, and at the same time facilitating the holding of the filtering panel, achieving hole-free filtering visually. In the reverse use mode, the hollow groove can be blocked by tiles, and only the filtering part and the filtering holes of the filtering panel are the observable areas, greatly improving the visual beauty and forming an integrated visual effect. The filtering part is flush with the ground, making it easy to clean hair and sundries, and the structural design is ingenious.

[0003] Although the above solution realizes a dual-mode structure and uses the height difference to hide the filtering holes in the normal use mode, it can be seen from other specification drawings that the filtering holes can still be easily observed from the top view, and the hole-free design cannot be thoroughly implemented, which has a certain impact on the appearance.

[0004] To solve the above problems, this application is proposed. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a panel and a floor drain assembly having the same for the above problems existing in the prior art, and solve the problems that the filtering holes of the existing panel and floor drain are not thoroughly hidden and are easy to observe.

[0006] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved by the following technical solutions: a panel, characterized in that it includes a body. Filtering cavities are formed on both sides between the body and the floor drain housing. There is a hollow groove between the two filtering cavities on the body. A through filtering hole one is opened at the transition between the bottom wall and the side wall of the filtering cavity. The top of the filtering cavity has a shielding part. In the top view state, the filtering hole one is shielded by the shielding part, and a sewage discharge inlet is formed between the shielding part and the floor drain housing.

[0007] In the positive usage mode of the patented technical solution of Patent No. 2022200456669, the filter holes are in a semi-hidden mode and can be clearly observed in the top view state. In this solution, to overcome the above-mentioned defects, a more concealed hidden mode is formed. First, the position of Filter Hole 1 is at the transition between the bottom wall and the side wall of the filter chamber, rather than on the bottom wall, which moves the overall position of Filter Hole 1 inward, and the design at the transition realizes sewage discharge at the lowest position, improving the sewage discharge efficiency; second, there is a shielding part at the top of the filter chamber, which shields Filter Hole 1 through the shielding part and reduces the visible space through the shielding, greatly reducing the exposure of Filter Hole 1. In this additional solution, the design of the special position of Filter Hole 1 and the design of the shielding part complement each other and are indispensable. If only Filter Hole 1 is designed, it can still be observed in the top view state. If only the shielding part is designed, although the filter hole can be shielded to a certain extent in the top view state, from the side view, the filter hole is easily exposed. In products such as floor drains, the requirement for appearance is getting higher and higher, and a slight visual effect will bring great differences, ultimately affecting product sales. The usage process of this product is that sewage enters from the openings above the two filter chambers on both sides, is discharged to the inside of the floor drain housing through Filter Hole 1, and finally discharged from the drain core of the floor drain. The design of the hollow groove reduces the weight and cost of the panel while facilitating the discharge of sewage from Filter Hole 1.

[0008] In the above-mentioned panel, the body includes a horizontal connecting plate, two bottom plates, and two vertical connecting plates. The two bottom plates are located on both sides, the lower ends of the two vertical connecting plates are respectively connected to one bottom plate, and the horizontal connecting plate is connected between the upper ends of the two vertical connecting plates. The shielding part extends from the connecting end of the vertical connecting plate and the horizontal connecting plate. A part of Filter Hole 1 is located on the bottom plate, and the other part of Filter Hole 1 is located on the vertical connecting plate.

[0009] The overall structure of the body is in a π shape, and it can actually be other shapes in practice. Filter Hole 1 is shared by the bottom plate and the vertical connecting plate, realizing sewage discharge at the lowest position of the filter chamber and minimizing the outward exposure of Filter Hole 1 as much as possible.

[0010] In the above-mentioned panel, the bottom plate, the vertical connecting plate, the horizontal connecting plate, and the shielding part are of an integral structure.

[0011] The integral structure is convenient for processing.

[0012] In the above-mentioned panel, there are several Filter Holes 2 on the vertical connecting plate, and Filter Hole 2 penetrates through to the hollow groove.

[0013] Filter Hole 2 can enhance the sewage discharge efficiency, and sewage is discharged jointly through Filter Hole 1 and Filter Hole 2.

[0014] In the above-mentioned panel, Filter Hole 1 and Filter Hole 2 are arranged at intervals in a staggered manner.

[0015] The arrangement at intervals in a staggered manner forms a certain sense of design.

[0016] The floor drain assembly comprises a shell with an opening at the top, a sewage outlet at the bottom of the shell, a floor drain core installed at the sewage outlet, and is characterized in that the above-mentioned panel is provided inside the top of the shell.

[0017] In the above-mentioned floor drain assembly, the inner bottom wall of the shell is in a structure with both ends inclined downward toward the middle.

[0018] This structure allows sewage to quickly flow to the floor drain core and be discharged.

[0019] In the above-mentioned floor drain assembly, a protruding clamping edge is provided on the inner wall of the shell, the clamping edge is arranged along the contour of the inner wall of the shell, and a downward pressing notch is formed at one end of the clamping edge.

[0020] The card edge is used to support the panel. The existence of the blocking part causes the gap of the sewage inlet to narrow, which may make it inconvenient to take the panel. The gap is formed by the discontinuous missing design at one end of the card edge. Pressing down the panel at the same end can make the other end of the panel quickly tilt up, making it easier to pick up the entire panel, thereby achieving quick removal and cleaning of the panel. The pressing end can be set in the edge area that is not easily stepped on.

[0021] In the above-mentioned floor drain assembly, the clamping edge is in a convex shape.

[0022] When the panel and the shell are rectangular parallelepiped structures, the card edge can be in a 冂 shape, and the notch of the 冂 shape is the notch end. In practice, it can also be in other shapes.

[0023] Compared with the existing technology, this panel has the following advantages:

[0024] 1. The design of the special position of the filter hole in this panel and the design of the shielding part complement each other to form a more concealed hidden mode.

[0025] 2. The filter hole of this panel is shared by the bottom plate and the vertical connecting plate, so that sewage is discharged at the lowest position of the filter cavity and the filter hole is minimized from being exposed outward. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0048] Such as Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, this panel includes a main body 1. Filter cavities 1e are formed on both sides between the main body 1 and the floor drain housing 2. There is a hollow groove 1d between the two filter cavities 1e on the main body 1. A through first filter hole 1e1 is provided at the transition between the bottom wall 1b1 and the side wall 1c1 of the filter cavity 1e. The top of the filter cavity 1e has a shielding portion 1f. In the top view state, the first filter hole 1e1 is shielded by the shielding portion 1f, and a sewage inlet 21f is formed between the shielding portion 1f and the floor drain housing 2. In the normal use mode of the technical solution in the background art, the filter holes are in a semi-hidden mode, and can be clearly observed in the top view state. In this solution, to overcome the above defects, a more concealed hidden mode is formed. First, the position of the first filter hole 1e1 is at the transition between the bottom wall 1b1 and the side wall of the filter cavity 1e, rather than on the bottom wall, which moves the overall position of the first filter hole 1e1 inward, and the design at the transition realizes sewage discharge at the lowest position, improving the sewage discharge efficiency. Second, the top of the filter cavity 1e has a shielding portion 1f, which shields the first filter hole 1e1 and reduces the visible space through the shielding, greatly reducing the exposure of the first filter hole 1e1. In this solution, the design of the special position of the first filter hole 1e1 and the design of the shielding portion 1f complement each other and are indispensable. If only the first filter hole 1e1 is designed, it can still be observed in the top view state. If only the shielding portion 1f is designed, although the filter holes can be shielded to a certain extent in the top view state, the filter holes are easily exposed when observed from the side. In floor drains, the requirement for appearance is getting higher and higher, and a slight visual effect will make a big difference, ultimately affecting product sales. The usage process of this product is that sewage enters from the upper openings on both sides of the filter cavities 1e, is discharged into the floor drain housing 2 through the first filter hole 1e1, and finally discharged from the drain core of the floor drain. The design of the hollow groove 1d reduces the weight and cost of the panel while facilitating the discharge of sewage from the first filter hole 1e1.

[0049] The body 1 includes a horizontal connecting plate 1a, two bottom plates 1b and two vertical connecting plates 1c. The two bottom plates 1b are located on both sides. The lower ends of the two vertical connecting plates 1c are respectively connected to a bottom plate 1b. The upper ends of the two vertical connecting plates 1c are connected with a horizontal connecting plate 1a. The shielding portion 1f extends from the connecting end of the vertical connecting plate 1c and the horizontal connecting plate 1a. A part of the filter hole 1e1 is located on the bottom plate 1b, and the other part of the filter hole 1e1 is located on the vertical connecting plate 1c. The overall structure of the body 1 is π-shaped, and it can also be other shapes in practice. The filter hole 1e1 is shared by the bottom plate 1b and the vertical connecting plate 1c, realizing the discharge of sewage at the lowest position of the filter cavity 1e and minimizing the outward movement and exposure of the filter hole 1e1. The bottom plate 1b, the vertical connecting plate 1c, the horizontal connecting plate 1a and the shielding portion 1f are an integrated structure. The integrated structure is easy to process. There are a plurality of filter holes 1c2 on the vertical connecting plate 1c, and the filter holes 1c2 penetrate into the hollow groove 1d. The filter hole 1c2 can enhance the sewage discharge efficiency, and the sewage is discharged through the filter hole 1e1 and the filter hole 1c2. The filter hole 1e1 and the filter hole 1c2 are arranged in a staggered manner. The staggered arrangement forms a certain sense of design.

[0050] A floor drain assembly includes a shell 2 with an opening at the top, a sewage outlet 2a at the bottom of the shell 2, a floor drain core 3 installed at the sewage outlet 2a, and the above-mentioned panel inside the top of the shell 2. The inner bottom wall of the shell 2 is a structure with both ends inclined downward toward the middle. This structure allows sewage to quickly converge to the floor drain core 3 and be discharged. A protruding card edge 2b is provided on the inner wall of the shell 2, and the card edge 2b is arranged along the contour of the inner wall of the shell 2, and a downward pressure notch 2c is formed at one end of the card edge 2b. The card edge 2b is used for the panel to abut, and the existence of the shielding portion 1f causes the gap of the sewage inlet 21f to narrow, which may make it inconvenient to take the panel. The notch is formed by the discontinuous missing design at one end of the card edge 2b, and pressing down the panel at the same end can make the other end of the panel quickly tilt up, which is convenient for picking up the entire panel, and the panel can be quickly taken and cleaned, and the downward pressure end can be set at the edge area that is not easy to step on. The card edge 2b is in a 冂 shape. When the panel and the shell 2 are rectangular parallelepiped structures, the clamping edge 2b can be in a 冂 shape, and the notch of the 冂 shape is the notch end. In practice, it can also be in other shapes.
