Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of septic tanks, and particularly to a safety sealing device for septic tanks. Background Art

[0002] In the design and management of septic tanks, for some simple and small septic tank treatment devices, the feeding ports of the septic tanks usually adopt a relatively simple opening design, and are equipped with detachable or snap-on sealing covers to close these openings.

[0003] Although this design meets the basic functional requirements of the septic tank to a certain extent, in actual use, since the sealing cover and the feeding port are mostly directly placed or simply snap-connected, lacking a stable fixing mechanism, during operation, especially in bad weather or when the ground is slippery, it is extremely easy for operators to fall into the septic tank due to stepping empty or slipping, resulting in serious safety accidents. In addition, even when there is no personnel operation, the loss or failure to close the sealing cover often occurs, which also increases the risk of accidental falls of personnel, animals, etc., posing a threat to the surrounding environment and public safety.

[0004] Secondly, the traditional sealing cover design often ignores the warning function at night or when the visibility is poor. In a night or low visibility environment, due to the lack of obvious warning signs, it is difficult for people to discover and avoid the unclosed feeding port in time, thus increasing the possibility of falling accidents.

[0005] In view of the above problems, a safety sealing device for septic tanks is now designed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The embodiments of this application provide a safety sealing device for septic tanks to solve the problem that the feeding port of the septic tank in the related technology has a relatively single function and is prone to falling risks.

[0007] In a first aspect, a safety sealing device for septic tanks is provided, including:

[0008] A septic tank, on which there are two feeding ports for feeding materials. A sealing cover is hinged above the feeding port, and the sealing cover and the feeding port are fixed by a locking rod. Reflective strips are provided on both sides of the sealing cover;

[0009] An installation ring is arranged inside the feeding port, a support ring abuts against the installation ring, and an anti-fall net is arranged at the bottom of the support ring;

[0010] The anti-fall net includes a receiving ring arranged at the bottom of the support ring, and a number of stress rods arranged at the bottom of the receiving ring. The stress rods are in a U shape.

[0011] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the receiving ring is adapted to the outer diameter of the mounting ring, and the mounting ring and the support ring are connected by a plurality of bolts.

[0012] In some embodiments, a plurality of the force-bearing rods are arranged in sequence along the radial direction of the receiving ring, and the sizes of the plurality of the force-bearing rods gradually increase from both sides to the middle.

[0013] In some embodiments, the sealing cover includes a hinge seat disposed on the feeding port, two mounting plates are hinged on the hinge seat, and a round cover abutting against the feeding port is disposed at the bottom of the mounting plate;

[0014] The diameter of the round cover is larger than the diameter of the feeding port.

[0015] In some embodiments, a limiting block is disposed at one end of the hinge seat away from the feeding port, and the flipped round cover is supported by the limiting block.

[0016] In some embodiments, the locking rod includes:

[0017] A second hinge seat disposed on the feeding port, and the second hinge seat is disposed opposite to the hinge seat;

[0018] A fixing rod rotatably disposed on the second hinge seat;

[0019] A nut threadedly connected to the other end of the fixing rod;

[0020] A groove for receiving the fixing rod is formed on the round cover, and the groove is located above the second hinge seat.

Detailed implementation manners

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Apparently, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0031] An embodiment of the present application provides a septic tank safety sealing device, which can solve the problems that the feeding port of the septic tank in the related art has a relatively single function and is prone to falling risks.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 - 3 , a septic tank safety sealing device includes: a septic tank 1, two feeding ports 2 for feeding are provided on the septic tank 1, a sealing cover 3 is hinged above the feeding port 2, the sealing cover 3 and the feeding port 2 are fixed by a locking rod 4, and reflective strips 5 are provided on both sides of the sealing cover 3; an installation ring 6 is provided inside the feeding port 2, and an anti-falling net 7 is provided on the installation ring 6; the anti-falling net 7 includes a receiving ring 71 provided at the bottom of a support ring 9, and a plurality of stress rods 72 provided at the bottom of the receiving ring 71, and the stress rods 72 are U-shaped.

[0033] The safety sealing device of this septic tank is designed with a hinged sealing cover 3 above the feeding port 2, and the locking rod 4 is used to achieve a firm connection between the sealing cover and the feeding port. When feeding is required, the operator can unlock the locking rod 4 and flip open the sealing cover 3; after feeding is completed, the sealing cover 3 is covered back on the feeding port and fixed again through the locking rod 4 to ensure the sealing performance of the feeding port.

[0034] Inside the feeding port 2, a safety net 7 composed of a receiving ring 71 and several U-shaped stress rods 72 is installed. The safety net is fixed inside the feeding port through the mounting ring 6 to form a safety barrier. Even if the sealing cover fails to completely seal the feeding port for some reason, the safety net can effectively prevent people or animals from accidentally falling into the septic tank.

[0035] The reflective strips 5 provided on both sides of the sealing cover 3 can reflect light at night or in low light conditions, improving the visibility of the feeding port, thus playing a warning role and reducing accidental falling accidents caused by poor visibility.

[0036] Through the dual protection of the fixing mechanism of the locking rod 4 and the safety net 7, the device significantly improves the safety of the feeding port of the septic tank and effectively prevents people or animals from accidentally falling. The hinged design between the sealing cover 3 and the feeding port 2 and the firm connection of the locking rod 4 make the sealing cover not easily damaged or deformed during use, extending the service life of the device.

[0037] The setting of the reflective strips 5 enhances the visibility of the feeding port at night or in poor visibility, improves the warning effect, and reduces the safety hazards caused by vision problems.

[0038] The hinged design of the sealing cover 3 and the simple operation of the locking rod make the opening and closing of the device convenient and fast, and also facilitate daily inspection and maintenance work. At the same time, the device has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture and install, is suitable for septic tanks in various environments such as rural areas, and has high practicality and promotion value.

[0039] Furthermore, as Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown, in this implementation scheme, the inner diameter of the receiving ring 71 is adapted to the outer diameter of the mounting ring 6, and the mounting ring 6 and the support ring 9 are connected by several bolts.

[0040] The inner diameter of the receiving ring 71 is designed to be adapted to the outer diameter of the mounting ring 6. This adaptability design enables the receiving ring 71 to be closely sleeved inside the mounting ring 6, reducing installation difficulties or loosening problems caused by size mismatches.

[0041] The installation ring 6 and the support ring 9 are connected by a number of bolts. Bolt connection is a commonly used mechanical connection method, which has the advantages of simple structure, reliable connection, easy disassembly and installation, etc. The bolt connection not only provides the necessary fastening force, but also enhances the stability of the anti-falling net through the multi-point fixing method. At the same time, the design of the bolt connection also facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the anti-falling net 7.

[0042] As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, a number of the force-bearing rods 72 are arranged in sequence along the radial direction of the receiving ring 71, and the sizes of the number of the force-bearing rods 72 gradually increase from both sides to the middle.

[0043] The force-bearing rods 72 are arranged at equal distances in sequence along the bottom of the receiving ring 71 to form a closed support structure, and the input material flows in through the gaps between the force-bearing rods 72. This arrangement enables the force-bearing rods 72 to be evenly distributed on the entire anti-falling net 7, improving the overall load-bearing capacity of the anti-falling net 7.

[0044] The sizes of the force-bearing rods 72 gradually increase from both sides to the middle. This design takes into account that when the anti-falling net bears heavy objects, the central area is often subjected to greater pressure. Therefore, by increasing the diameter or cross-sectional area of the force-bearing rods in the central area, these pressures can be more effectively dispersed and borne, preventing local deformation or damage of the anti-falling net.

[0045] Since the force-bearing rods in the central area are thicker, they can provide better support, preventing the anti-falling net from shaking or twisting when subjected to external impact. This stability is crucial for preventing accidental falls of personnel or animals.

[0046] In one embodiment, as Figure 3 and shown, the sealing cover 3 includes a hinge seat 31 provided on the feeding port 2, two mounting plates 32 are hinged on the hinge seat 31, and a round cover 33 abutting against the feeding port 2 is provided at the bottom of the mounting plate 32; the diameter of the round cover 33 is larger than the diameter of the feeding port 2. The reflective strips 5 are provided on both sides of the round cover 33.

[0047] The sealing cover 3 is connected to the two mounting plates 32 through the hinge seat 31 provided on the feeding port 2. This double-hinge structure makes the sealing cover more stable when opening and closing, reducing the shaking or deviation that may occur due to single-point hinging. At the same time, the double-hinge structure also enhances the connection strength between the sealing cover 3 and the feeding port 2, making the sealing cover 3 more stable in the closed state and not easily blown open by the wind or accidentally moved by people.

[0048] The diameter of the round cover 33 is designed to be larger than the diameter of the feeding port 2. This design enables the round cover to completely cover the feeding port when closed and form a tight contact with the edge of the feeding port, thereby improving the sealing performance. In addition, the design of the round cover also increases the weight and stability of the sealing cover, making it more difficult to be blown by the wind or easily moved manually.

[0049] To improve visibility at night or in poor visibility conditions, reflective strips 5 are provided on both sides of the round cover 33. When light shines on the reflective strips, bright light will be reflected, thereby attracting people's attention and serving as a warning. This design helps reduce accidental falling accidents caused by visibility problems.

[0050] In addition, through the design on both sides, it can still serve as a warning when the sealing cover 3 is forgotten to be closed.

[0051] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a limiting block 8 is provided at one end of the hinge seat 31 away from the feeding port 2, and the flipped round cover 33 is supported by the limiting block 8. A handle is provided on the round cover 33.

[0052] The main function of the limiting block 8 is to support the flipped round cover 33 when the sealing cover 3 is fully opened, preventing it from suddenly falling due to gravity, thereby avoiding possible accidental injuries.

[0053] To facilitate the user to open and close the sealing cover, a handle is particularly provided on the round cover 33. The design of this handle should conform to the ergonomic principle, enabling the user to hold it easily and comfortably and perform the flipping operation smoothly.

[0054] Anti-slip patterns are provided on the handle to ensure a good grip even in a wet or greasy environment.

[0055] In one embodiment, the locking rod 4 includes: a hinge seat two 41 provided on the feeding port 2, the hinge seat two 41 being disposed opposite to the hinge seat 31; a fixed rod 42 rotatably provided on the hinge seat two 41; a nut 43 threadedly connected to the other end of the fixed rod 42; a groove for accommodating the fixed rod 42 is provided on the round cover 33, and the groove is located above the hinge seat two 41. Threads adapted to the nut are provided at the upper end of the fixed rod 42, and a knob is provided above the nut 43.

[0056] The fixed rod 42 is installed on the hinge seat two 41 by a hinge manner, enabling it to rotate around the hinge point. This allows the fixed rod to flexibly adjust its position during the locking and unlocking processes to adapt to the opening and closing states of the sealing cover.

[0057] The other end of the fixed rod 42 is designed with a thread for threaded connection with the nut 43. By rotating the nut 43, the nut 43 contacts the round cover 33, thereby controlling the locking degree between the fixed rod and the round cover 33.

[0058] On the round cover 33, a groove for accommodating the fixed rod 42 is provided. This groove is located above the hinge seat two 41. When the sealing cover 3 is closed, the fixed rod can extend into the groove, and the position of the sealing cover 3 can be fixed by tightening the nut.

[0059] For the convenience of users, the thread at the upper end of the fixed rod 42 is adapted to the nut 43, and a knob is provided above the nut. The user only needs to rotate the knob to drive the nut to rotate on the fixed rod, realizing the locking or unlocking function. This design not only simplifies the operation process but also improves the convenience of use.

[0060] When the sealing cover 3 is closed and covers the feeding port 2, the fixed rod 42 extends into the groove of the round cover 33, and the nut 43 is moved on the fixed rod 42 by rotating the knob. By contacting the nut 43 with the round cover 33, in this way, the sealing cover 3 is firmly locked on the feeding port 2, preventing the sealing cover from loosening or falling off due to wind blowing, vibration or human misoperation.

[0061] It should be noted that lifting rings are provided at both ends of the top of the septic tank 1.

[0062] At both ends of the top of the septic tank 1, lifting rings are added. The main function of these lifting rings is to provide a convenient way for users to carry and move the septic tank. For example, when the septic tank needs to be cleaned or repaired, ropes or lifting chains and other tools can be used to lift the septic tank and move it to a suitable position.
