Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a floor drain, in particular to a floor drain with a floor drain cover that is easy to open. Background Art
[0002] Floor drain is a common decorative accessory, which is installed on the floor of kitchens, bathrooms, balconies and other places. At present, for the sake of beauty, the floor drain cover is usually designed as a simple flat plate or grille shape. Water enters the floor drain from the surrounding of the floor drain cover or the gap of the grille. The length of floor drains on the market is getting longer and longer, and the floor drain cover is also getting longer and heavier. It becomes more and more troublesome to open the floor drain cover to clean the debris in the floor drain core. In order to solve this problem, there are several ways on the market. One is to install a spring or a buckle to press the floor drain cover to open it. This method is costly, has a short service life, and is more troublesome to maintain in the later stage. There is also a small hook to hook up the floor drain cover to open it, which is also more troublesome. Summary of the invention

[0006] The connecting shaft is a rivet, a gap groove is provided between the floor drain seat and the floor drain cover, and the rotating wheel is installed in the gap groove through the rivet.
[0007] The floor drain cover is provided with a lower water trough, the two ends of the connecting shaft are fixed on both sides of the lower water trough, and the rotating wheel is installed in the lower water trough.
[0008] A mounting hole is arranged at the center of the rotating wheel, and the connecting shaft is passed through the mounting hole.
[0009] A handle hole is arranged at the center of the handle.
[0010] The outer sides of the rotating wheel and the handle are provided with concave-convex structures for increasing friction.
[0011] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: A connecting shaft is installed on the floor drain cover of the present utility model, a rotating wheel is rotatably installed on the connecting shaft, a handle integrated with the rotating wheel is arranged on one side of the rotating wheel. When the handle hangs naturally, it is located below the rotating wheel, and the top surface of the rotating wheel is higher than the top surface of the floor drain cover. When it needs to be opened, only by pressing and pushing the rotating wheel with a finger, the handle can be rotated from below the floor drain cover to above the floor drain cover, and then by pulling the handle with a finger, the floor drain cover can be taken out. When the handle is released, it will automatically reset under the action of gravity. This structure is convenient for opening the floor drain cover, easy to operate, requires no maintenance, and has a low cost. Brief Description of the Drawings
[0012] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.
[0013] Figure 1 It is the structural diagram of Embodiment 1;
[0014] Figure 2 It is the structural diagram of Embodiment 2;
[0015] Figure 3 It is the structural diagram at the rotating wheel in Embodiment 1. Detailed Embodiments
[0016] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer and more understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the specific embodiments and with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present utility model and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0017] It should be understood that these descriptions are only exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.
[0018] The following describes some embodiments of the present utility model provided in conjunction with the drawings.
[0019] Refer to Figures 1-3 , A floor drain with a floor drain cover that is convenient to open, including a floor drain base 1 and a floor drain cover 2. The floor drain cover 2 is inlaid and covered on the floor drain base 1. A connecting shaft 3 is installed on the floor drain cover 2. A rotating wheel 4 is rotatably installed on the connecting shaft 3. A handle 5 integrated with the rotating wheel 4 is arranged on one side of the rotating wheel 4. When the handle 5 hangs naturally, it is located below the rotating wheel 4 or the lowest point of the handle 5 abuts against the bottom of the floor drain base 1 (as Figure 3 shown). The top surface of the rotating wheel 4 is higher than the top surface of the floor drain cover 2. When it needs to be opened, only by pressing and pushing the rotating wheel with a finger, the handle can be rotated from below the floor drain cover to above the floor drain cover, and then by pulling the handle with a finger, the floor drain cover can be taken out. When the handle is released, it will automatically reset under the action of gravity. This structure is convenient for opening the floor drain cover, easy to operate, requires no maintenance, and has a low cost.
[0020] Embodiment 1: The connecting shaft 3 is a rivet. A clearance groove 7 is provided between the floor drain base 1 and the floor drain cover 2. The rotating wheel 4 is installed in the clearance groove 7 by a rivet. In addition, installation methods such as screws can also be adopted.
[0021] Embodiment 2: A water discharge groove 6 is provided on the floor drain cover 2. Both ends of the connecting shaft 3 can be fixed to both sides of the water discharge groove 6 by means such as welding and snap connection. The rotating wheel 4 is installed in the water discharge groove 6.
[0022] The floor drain structure of the present utility model is not limited to the long strip type floor drain shown in the drawings, but also applicable to floor drains such as square gratings, linear floor drains, hidden floor drains, and one - shaped floor drains with an openable floor drain cover.
[0023] A mounting hole is provided at the center of the rotating wheel 4. The connecting shaft 3 passes through the mounting hole. The diameter of the mounting hole is larger than the diameter of the connecting shaft 3 to avoid affecting the rotation of the rotating wheel 4.
[0024] Preferably, a handle hole 8 is provided at the center of the handle 5. Passing a finger through the handle hole 8 can more easily open the floor drain cover 2.
[0025] An uneven structure 9 for increasing friction is provided on the outer sides of the rotating wheel 4 and the handle 5 to avoid the situation where the handle 5 cannot be rotated to the top of the floor drain cover due to slippery hands.
[0026] In this embodiment, preferably, the vertex of the rotating wheel 4 in the natural state is higher than the top surface of the floor drain cover 2 by more than 1 mm. If this height is less than 1 mm, deformation will occur when pressing and pushing with a finger, the rotating wheel 4 is difficult to rotate, and even the situation where the rotating wheel 4 cannot be rotated may occur. The vertex of the rotating wheel 4 in the natural state is higher than the top surface of the floor drain cover 2 by less than 10 mm. At this height, it does not affect the appearance and use. In the range where this height is greater than 1 mm and less than 10 mm, the smaller the better. When this height is greater than 10 mm, it will affect the appearance and use.
