Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flush valves, in particular to an anti-siphon flush valve. Background Art

[0002] In the jet siphon toilet on the market, there are two flush water outlets, upper and lower. The water flow out of the upper flush water outlet flows downward in a vortex; the lower flush water outlet is located in the cistern and is aligned with the sewage outlet. The water flows in the upper and lower flush water outlets are flushed through two independent and unconnected solenoid valves. When flushing, the water flow is first ejected from the upper flush water outlet to wash the pool wall, then the upper flush water outlet stops flushing, and the lower flush water outlet ejects water flow to form a siphon to directly flush the dirt into the sewage outlet. After flushing, the two independent upper and lower flush water pipes remain in a full pipe state due to the atmospheric pressure for the next cycle.

[0003] The above-mentioned jet siphon toilet is usually equipped with a flush valve that has two water flow channels and two electromagnetic control valves at the same time. The flush valve includes an inlet valve body and left and right electromagnetic flush valve bodies connected in series on the left and right sides of the inlet valve body. The water inlets of the two electromagnetic flush valve bodies are respectively connected to the two water outlets on both sides of the inlet valve body. Generally, a vacuum breaker is also provided at the upper end of the inlet valve body. An anti-siphon valve flap that can be automatically opened and closed according to the internal and external air pressures is provided in the vacuum breaker. When the toilet starts flushing and the water supply network stops supplying water, the air pressure in the inlet valve body is less than the external atmospheric pressure, then the anti-siphon valve flap opens, releasing the external air into the inlet valve body to prevent the sewage in the cistern from being sucked back into the water supply network due to negative pressure.

[0004] However, since the anti-siphon valve flap and the end face of the water inlet end are easily damaged by foreign objects (such as steel needles, wool threads, etc.), the check valve function is damaged, so that the already discharged sewage flows back into the water supply pipe again due to the action of negative pressure suction. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an anti-siphon flush valve. When the check structure of the utility model is damaged by foreign objects, it can still effectively provide an anti-siphon effect to prevent the already discharged sewage from flowing back into the water supply pipe again due to the action of negative pressure suction.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present utility model provides the following technical solutions: an anti-siphon flushing valve, comprising a valve body, an inlet channel and two outlet channels are provided on the valve body, and a check solenoid valve is installed on the outlet channel; further comprising a vacuum breaker, the vacuum breaker includes an air inlet cover and a siphon core, the air inlet cover is arranged at a position corresponding to the upper part of the inlet channel of the valve body, an air inlet channel communicating inside and outside is provided on the air inlet cover, the siphon core is movably arranged between the upper end of the inlet channel and the inner end of the air inlet channel, and a first gasket and a second gasket are respectively installed at the upper and lower ends of the siphon core, the second gasket is made of an elastic material, when water passes through the inlet channel, the siphon core moves upward under the action of water pressure and the first gasket abuts against the inner end of the air inlet channel to block the air inlet channel, when the water supply in the inlet channel is cut off, the siphon core falls due to its own weight and the second gasket abuts against the upper end surface of the inlet channel to block the inlet channel.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, since the second gasket is made of an elastic material and can deform under its own force, therefore, even when there is a foreign object between the second gasket and the inner end of the inlet channel, resulting in the destruction of the check function, the negative pressure generated inside can also cause the second gasket to deform and enclose the surface of the foreign object, making the gap between the foreign object and the second gasket very small, so as to effectively prevent the sewage that has flowed out from flowing back into the water supply pipeline again due to the action of negative pressure suction, and the second gasket can also ensure that when the siphon phenomenon occurs, the air intake volume is reduced.

[0008] The present utility model is further arranged such that the second gasket is made of rubber material.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solutions, it not only has good elasticity but also has a long service life. When the check structure of the product is damaged by foreign objects, it can still effectively provide the anti-siphon effect.

[0016] The present utility model is further configured such that an annular water retaining rib is provided at the upper end of the lower cover, and an annular water retaining groove adapted to the annular water retaining rib is provided at the lower end of the upper cover.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the annular water retaining rib and the annular water retaining groove cooperate to form a water retaining structure, which can prevent external water from entering the inside of the siphon core and causing the buoyancy of the siphon core to become smaller.

When water flows through the inlet channel 2, the siphon core 7 moves upward under the action of water pressure and the first gasket 9 abuts against the inner end of the air inlet channel 8 to block the air inlet channel 8. When the water supply in the inlet channel 2 stops, the siphon core 7 falls due to its own weight and the second gasket 10 abuts against the upper end face of the inlet channel 2 to block the inlet channel 2. Since the second gasket 10 is made of an elastic material and can deform under its own force, even if there is a foreign object between the second gasket 10 and the inner end of the inlet channel 2 resulting in the failure of the check function, the negative pressure generated inside can deform the second gasket 10 and enclose the surface of the foreign object, making the gap between the foreign object and the second gasket 10 very small, so as to effectively prevent the sewage that has flowed out from flowing back into the water supply pipe again due to the action of negative pressure suction, and the second gasket 10 can also ensure that when a siphon phenomenon occurs, the amount of air intake is reduced.

[0034] Wherein, the second gasket 10 is made of rubber material. It not only has good elasticity but also has a long service life. When the check structure of the product is damaged by foreign objects, it can still effectively provide the anti-siphon effect.
