Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ceramic tiles, in particular to a ceramic tile soaking device. Background Art
[0002] Ceramic tiles are made of refractory metal oxides and semi-metal oxides through processes such as grinding, mixing, pressing, glazing, and sintering, and form acid and alkali-resistant porcelain or stone-like building or decorative materials. When attaching ceramic tiles, it is necessary to soak the ceramic tiles through a soaking device first, which can prevent the ceramic tiles from absorbing all the moisture in the cement mortar and prevent the phenomena of hollowing and falling off.
[0003] Existing ceramic tile soaking devices are generally single water tanks or buckets, and workers move the ceramic tiles into the water tanks or buckets for soaking. However, since the ceramic tiles are stacked on top of each other during soaking, it is difficult for the stacked parts of the ceramic tiles to come into full contact with water, resulting in poor soaking effect. And after soaking, workers still need to manually move the ceramic tiles out of the water tank or bucket for drying, which is troublesome and has a poor use effect. For this reason, we propose a ceramic tile soaking device. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the above-mentioned disadvantages in the prior art and propose a ceramic tile soaking device.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: Design a ceramic tile soaking device, including a base. There is a frame on the top of the base. L-shaped connecting plates are installed on both sides of the top of the frame. Both ends of the bottom of the L-shaped connecting plate are fixed on the base through support rods.
[0006] Two mesh plates are symmetrically installed at the bottom of the frame, and a second partition plate is also installed between the frames. A number of first partition plates are equidistantly installed on both sides of the second partition plate. The bottoms of the first partition plates and the second partition plate are fixed on the top of the mesh plate. An accommodation cavity is formed between two adjacent first partition plates, the second partition plate and the mesh plate, and the ceramic tiles are placed in this accommodation cavity.
[0007] A number of support blocks are installed on both sides of the first partition plate and the second partition plate, and a number of strip-shaped support plates are installed on the top of the mesh plate. The strip-shaped support plates are all located in the corresponding accommodation cavities. When the ceramic tiles are placed in the accommodation cavities, the strip-shaped support plates and the support blocks are both in contact with the surface of the ceramic tiles.
[0008] A water storage mechanism is provided below the frame. The water storage mechanism includes two support frames arranged below the frame. The two support frames are connected by a waterproof folding part. One of the support frames is fixed on the base, and the other support frame is fixed on the L-shaped connecting plate through a connecting mechanism. A water storage cavity is formed among the two support frames, the waterproof folding part and the base, and the frame is located in this water storage cavity.
[0009] A drain pipe is installed on the side of the support frame close to the base, and a water inlet pipe is installed on the side of the other support frame. Valves are installed on both the drain pipe and the water inlet pipe.
[0010] Preferably, the mesh plate is inclined.
[0011] Preferably, buffer sponges are installed on the sides of the support blocks close to the tiles, and the buffer sponges are in contact with the tile surfaces.
[0012] Preferably, the waterproof folding part is made of a flexible material.

Detailed implementation mode
[0024] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0025] Referring to Figures 1-4 , a tile soaking device includes a base 1, a frame 10 is provided at the top of the base 1, L-shaped connecting plates 3 are installed on both sides of the top of the frame 10, and both ends of the bottom of the L-shaped connecting plate 3 are fixed on the base 1 through support rods 2.
[0026] As Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, two mesh plates 8 are symmetrically installed at the bottom of the frame 10, and a second partition plate 6 is also installed between the frames 10. A number of first partition plates 5 are equidistantly installed on both sides of the second partition plate 6. The bottoms of the first partition plates 5 and the second partition plate 6 are both fixed on the top of the mesh plate 8. An accommodation cavity is formed between two adjacent first partition plates 5, the second partition plate 6 and the mesh plate 8. The tiles are placed in this accommodation cavity. During actual use, the tiles can be placed in the corresponding accommodation cavity, so that the tiles can be separated. During soaking, the surface of the tiles will be in full contact with water, and insufficient soaking will not occur.
[0027] It should be noted that the mesh plate 8 is inclined. When the tiles are placed, a certain inclination angle will be generated, so that the tiles will receive a component force in the direction towards the second partition plate 6, which will prevent the tiles from falling out of the accommodation cavity.
[0028] As Figure 3 shown, a number of support blocks 16 are installed on both sides of the first partition plate 5 and the second partition plate 6, and a number of strip-shaped support plates 18 are installed on the top of the mesh plate 8. The strip-shaped support plates 18 are all located in the corresponding accommodation cavities. When the tiles are placed in the accommodation cavities, the strip-shaped support plates 18 and the support blocks 16 are both in contact with the surface of the tiles. During actual use, the tiles can be supported by the strip-shaped support plates 18 and the support blocks 16, so that there is a certain distance between the surface of the tiles and the first partition plate 5, the second partition plate 6 and the mesh plate 8. In this way, during soaking, the first partition plate 5, the second partition plate 6 and the mesh plate 8 will not obstruct the water, and the tiles can be fully soaked in the water.
[0029] It should be noted that buffer sponges 17 are installed on the sides of the support blocks 16 close to the tiles. The buffer sponges 17 are in contact with the tile surfaces. The buffer sponges 17 can buffer the tiles to prevent the tiles from breaking due to collisions. At the same time, when the buffer sponges 17 buffer the tiles, they will also adsorb the water soaking the tiles, so that the contact parts between the tiles and the buffer sponges 17 can still be in contact with the water, without affecting the soaking effect of the tiles.
[0030] As Figure 2 shown, a water storage mechanism is provided below the frame 10. The water storage mechanism includes two support frames 15 arranged below the frame 10. The two support frames 15 are connected by a waterproof folding part 9. The waterproof folding part 9 is made of a flexible material. During actual use, the waterproof folding part 9 can contract and fold according to the distance between the two support frames 15, which is convenient for use.
[0031] As Figure 2 shown, one of the support frames 15 is fixed on the base 1, and the other support frame 15 is fixed on the L-shaped connecting plate 3 through a connecting mechanism. A water storage cavity is formed among the two support frames 15, the waterproof folding part 9 and the base 1. The frame 10 is located in this water storage cavity. During soaking, the support frame 15 located above can be pulled to make the tiles on the frame 10 located in the water outlet cavity, so that the tiles can be soaked. And after soaking is completed, the support frame 15 above can be pressed downwards, and the waterproof folding part 9 is stressed and folded and contracted. When the waterproof folding part 9 is folded, the frame 10 is separated from the water storage cavity formed among the support frame 15, the waterproof folding part 9 and the base 1, so that the support frame 15 moves below the frame 10. As Figure 4 shown, in this way, the soaked tiles are exposed to the external environment for drying, which is convenient for drying.
[0032] It should be noted that the specific structure of the connecting mechanism is, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 shown, the connecting mechanism includes fixing plates 19 fixed on both sides of one of the support frames 15. A locking screw 14 is vertically installed on the top of each fixing plate 19. Through holes 7 are correspondingly opened at the top of each L-shaped connecting plate 3. The top of the locking screw 14 passes through the through hole 7 and is fastened by a locking nut 4. During actual use, when the support frame 15 located above is moved upwards to the highest position, the fixing plate 19 contacts the bottom of the L-shaped connecting plate 3. At the same time, the top of the locking screw 14 passes through the through hole 7, and then the locking nut 4 is sleeved on the locking screw 14 and tightened to fix the locking screw 14 on the L-shaped connecting plate 3, so that the support frame 15 can be fixed. During soaking, the support frame 15 will not move downwards by itself.
[0033] As Figure 1As shown in the figure, a drain pipe 12 is installed on the side of the support frame 15 close to the base 1, and a water inlet pipe 13 is installed on the side of the other support frame 15. Valves 11 are installed on both the drain pipe 12 and the water inlet pipe 13. During actual use, when soaking is required, one end of the water inlet pipe 13 is connected to a faucet, the faucet and the valve 11 on the water inlet pipe 13 are opened, and water flows through the water inlet pipe 13 and is delivered to the inside of the water storage cavity formed between the support frame 15, the waterproof folding part 9 and the base 1, so that the water surface submerges the top of the ceramic tile. Then, the valve 11 on the water inlet pipe 13 is closed, so that the ceramic tile can be fully soaked. After soaking is completed, one end of the drain pipe 12 is moved to the drainage place, and then the valve 11 on the drain pipe 12 is opened, and the water in the water storage cavity can be discharged from the drain pipe 12.
[0034] Specifically, when the present utility model is in use, the staff places the ceramic tiles to be soaked into the corresponding accommodating cavities respectively, so that the surface of the ceramic tile contacts the buffer sponge 17. Then, the support frame 15 is pulled upward, and the support frame 15 drives the fixed plate 19 to move. When the fixed plate 19 moves to the bottom of the L-shaped connecting plate 3, the locking screw 14 passes through the through hole 7, and then the locking screw 14 is fixed on the L-shaped connecting plate 3 through the locking nut 4. In this way, the ceramic tile is located in the water storage cavity formed between the two support frames 15, the waterproof folding part 9 and the base 1. Then, the end of the water inlet pipe 13 is connected to the faucet on the external pipeline, and then the faucet and the valve 11 on the water inlet pipe 13 are opened, and water is delivered to the water storage cavity, so that the water surface submerges the top of the ceramic tile. The valve 11 is closed, and the ceramic tile is soaked in water. When soaking is completed, the valve 11 on the drain pipe 12 is opened, the water in the water storage cavity is discharged, and then the locking nut 4 is removed from the locking screw 14, and the upper support frame 15 is moved downward, and the waterproof folding part 9 is folded and contracted, and the ceramic tile is exposed to the external environment for drying.
[0035] Furthermore, as Figure 4 shown, braking universal wheels 20 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the bottom of the base 1. Under the action of the braking universal wheels 20, the moving difficulty of the base 1 can be reduced, and it is convenient to adjust the position of the base 1.
[0036] The above is only the preferred specific implementation manner of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, according to the technical solution of the present utility model and its inventive concept, makes equivalent replacements or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present utility model.
