[0025] Such as Figures 1 to 5As shown in the figure, the utility model provides a test device for the dredging performance of a sewer dredging agent, including a water tank 1. A drain port is provided at the bottom right of the water tank 1, and a first solenoid valve 9 is installed on the drain port. The water tank 1 is used to collect test water. The drain port of the water tank 1 is connected to the sewer pipe in the laboratory. After the test, first fish out the clogging residue in the water tank 1, then treat the water in the water tank 1, and then open the first solenoid valve 9 to drain the test water; A bracket 2 is installed on the mouth of the water tank 1. A clamping part 3 and a controller 8 are installed on the column of the bracket 2. A test water pipe 4 is clamped on the clamping part 3. The test water pipe 4 is used to simulate the situation of sewer blockage. When testing, multiple test water pipes 4 can be prepared for comparative testing; A first liquid storage bucket 5 and a second liquid storage bucket 6 are installed at the top of the bracket 2. The two liquid storage buckets are respectively used to store test water and the dredging agent to be tested. The first liquid storage bucket 5 and the second liquid storage bucket 6 are both made of transparent plastic buckets. The tester can directly see the amount of water and the dredging agent, and determine whether the water and the dredging agent need to be added. A Y-shaped pipe 7 is provided below the two liquid storage buckets. The two water inlets at the top of the Y-shaped pipe 7 are respectively connected to the bottom of the first liquid storage bucket 5 and the bottom of the second liquid storage bucket 6. Please refer to Figure 2 , second solenoid valves 10 are installed on the two water inlets at the top of the Y-shaped pipe 7. The two second solenoid valves 10 are respectively used to control the outflow of water and the dredging agent. A second flowmeter 11 is installed at the water outlet at the bottom of the Y-shaped pipe 7. The second solenoid valve 10 and the second flowmeter 11 cooperate to control the amount of water or the dredging agent.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 3 , the clamping part 3 includes a bottom plate 31 and three U-shaped buckles 32. The back of the bottom plate 31 is fixedly installed on the column of the bracket 2. The three U-shaped buckles 32 are all fixedly installed on the front of the bottom plate 31. The U-shaped buckles 32 are used to clamp the test water pipe 4. Two slots are horizontally arranged on each of the three U-shaped buckles 32.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5, the test water pipe 4 includes a front section pipe 41, a blocking pipe 42, and a rear section pipe 43. The front section pipe 41 is a vertical pipe, and the bottom end of the vertical pipe is bent 90 degrees to the right. The blocking pipe 42 is a horizontal pipe, and the rear section pipe 43 is an inverted U-shaped pipe. The left end of the U-shaped pipe is bent 90 degrees to the left. The left end of the blocking pipe 42 is inserted into the bottom end of the front section pipe 41, and the right end of the blocking pipe 42 is inserted into the left end of the rear section pipe 43. The combination of the front section pipe 41, the blocking pipe 42, and the rear section pipe 43 can simulate the S-shaped pipe shape of the sewer. The front section pipe 41, the blocking pipe 42, and the rear section pipe 43 are all made of transparent plastic pipes, and the transparent pipes can facilitate the tester to observe the test situation of the dredging agent. A funnel 44 is installed at the top end of the front section pipe 41. The blocking pipe 42 is used to fill in blockages such as hair and vegetable residues to simulate the blockage of the pipe. Two limiting rings 45 are installed inside the blocking pipe 42. After the blockage is filled into the blocking pipe 42, two pressing rods 12 are respectively inserted into both ends of the blocking pipe 42. The pressing radius of the pressing rod 12 is equal to the inner radius of the blocking pipe 42, so that the two pressing rods 12 are inserted into the blocking pipe 42 until they reach the limiting rings 45. In this way, the tightness of the blockage during each test can be controlled to be roughly the same, thus ensuring the accuracy of the test results. Rubber rings 46 are installed on both ends of the blocking pipe 42 for insertion. Its function is to make the connection between the blocking pipe 42 and the front section pipe 41 and the rear section pipe 43 tighter and prevent water leakage. A first flow meter 47 is installed at the right end of the rear section pipe 43, and its function is to record the amount of water discharged from the test water pipe 4, so as to compare the dredging effect of each experiment; A pair of insertion plates 48 are installed on the outer side of the front section pipe 41, and two pairs of insertion plates 48 are installed on the outer side of the rear section pipe 43. When the test water pipe 4 is stuck on the U-shaped buckle 32 of the clamping member 3, the insertion plates 48 can be inserted into the slots on the U-shaped buckle 32 to prevent the test water pipe 4 from sliding down. When the test water pipe 4 is installed on the clamping member 3, the water outlet of the Y-shaped pipe 7 is exactly above the funnel 44, and the water will finally fall into the water tank 1 after passing through the test water pipe 4.

[0028] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model:

[0029] Before using the sewer dredging agent dredging performance test device of the present utility model, add water into the first liquid storage barrel 5, add the dredging agent to be tested into the second liquid storage barrel 6, prepare three identical test water pipes 4, fill equal amounts of blockage in the blockage pipes 42 of two of the test water pipes 4. First, install the empty test water pipe 4 onto the clamping member 3, add 1000 ml of water into the test water pipe 4. After the water level in the pipe is balanced, add another 1000 ml of water into the test water pipe 4 to simulate the flushing effect, and record the first experimental result measured by the first flowmeter 47 during the second water addition; remove the test water pipe 4 of the first test, then install one of the test water pipes 4 with blockage onto the clamping member 3, add 1000 ml of water into the test water pipe 4. After the water level in the pipe is balanced, add another 1000 ml of water into the test water pipe 4, and record the second experimental result measured by the first flowmeter 47 during the second water addition; remove the test water pipe 4 of the second test, then install the other test water pipe 4 with blockage onto the clamping member 3, add 1000 ml of water into the test water pipe 4. After the water level in the pipe is balanced, add an appropriate amount of dredging agent into the pipe. After reacting for a period of time, add another 1000 ml of water into the test water pipe 4, and record the third experimental result measured by the first flowmeter 47 during the second water addition; by comparing the three experimental results, the test result of the dredging performance of the dredging agent can be obtained.

Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications, equivalent replacements, changes, etc. can be made to the present utility model. However, as long as these transformations do not deviate from the spirit of the present utility model, they should be within the protection scope of the present utility model. In addition, some terms used in the specification and claims of this application are not restrictive, but are only for the convenience of description.
