[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 8 , an embodiment of a one-way drainage check structure of the utility model is proposed:

[0032] A one-way drainage check valve structure includes a vertical one-way valve 1, which includes a bottom shell 14, a shell 11, a spring 13, and a top cover 12. The spring 13 is mounted on the bottom shell 14, and the top cover 12 is supported on the spring 13. The top cover 12 moves as the spring 13 expands and contracts. The bottom shell 14 and the shell 11 are connected and integrated. The shell 11 covers the top cover 12, and the shell 11 has a water outlet 111 opposite to the top cover 12. Under the natural support of the spring 13, the top cover 12 is lifted from below the water outlet 111 to block the water outlet 111, thereby sealing the water. When the top cover 12 is subjected to downward pressure, the spring 13 is compressed, and the top cover 12 moves below the water outlet 111, thereby achieving drainage. The vertical one-way valve 1 is installed in the drainage system of the pool. When there is no water to be discharged, there is no water pressure above the top cover 12, and the top cover 12 is lifted up to seal the water, which can prevent odor and water backflow in the pipe. When water needs to be discharged, the top cover 12 is pressed down under the water pressure, and the top cover 12 is separated from the water outlet 111, and the water outlet 111 is connected to achieve normal drainage. The vertical one-way valve 1 is easy to install and can be used in various drainage systems, with strong versatility.

[0033] The bottom shell 14 is connected to the lower port of the shell 11 through a snap-fit ​​structure, which is easy to assemble and makes the connection between the bottom shell 14 and the shell 11 more secure and not easy to fall off when subjected to external force, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the vertical one-way valve 1.

[0034] The bottom shell 14 includes an annular connecting frame 141 with a hollow opening. The outer wall of the connecting frame 141 is provided with a clamping block 142. The side wall of the housing 11 is provided with a clamping hole 112. The clamping hole 112 and the clamping block 142 form a snap-fit ​​structure. The clamping block 142 is snapped into the clamping hole 112 to connect the bottom shell 14 to the housing 11. The hollow opening is for water to pass through.

[0035] A sealing gasket 125 is installed on the front end surface of the top cover 12. When the top cover 12 is in a water-sealed state, the sealing gasket 125 rests against the edge of the water outlet 111, so that the top cover 12 and the edge of the water outlet 111 can fit tightly, further improving the function of preventing odor and backflow.

[0036] The bottom shell 14 is provided with an annular spring mounting groove 143 for mounting the spring 13. The connecting frame 141 is arranged around the spring mounting groove 143. The spring 13 is mounted in the spring mounting groove 143, and the upper end of the spring 13 supports the top cover 12.

[0037] The bottom shell 14 is provided with a guide hole 144, and the spring mounting groove 143 surrounds the outer periphery of the guide hole 144. The top cover 12 includes a cover plate 121 and a guide post 122 located on the back of the cover plate 121. The guide post 122 is inserted into the guide hole 144. The guide post 122 and the guide hole 144 cooperate to achieve the directional movement of the top cover 12. This structural design allows the top cover 12 to move downward effectively and stably when pressed downward, ensuring drainage performance.

[0038] The guide hole 144 passes through the bottom shell 14, and a limit head 123 is provided at the lower end of the guide column 122. The limit head 123 extends out of the guide hole 144. The outer diameter of the limit head 123 is larger than the aperture of the guide hole 144, so that the limit head 123 is limited outside the guide hole 144, thereby limiting the guide column 122 in the guide hole 144 and cannot be pulled out.

[0039] The stopper 123 is composed of a plurality of blocks surrounding the outer wall of the lower end of the guide post 122. The sidewall of the guide post 122 is provided with hollow slots 124 spaced between the blocks. The hollow slots 124 allow the lower end of the guide post 122 to retract inwardly. During assembly of the top cover 12 and the bottom shell 14, an external force causes the lower end of the guide post 122 to retract inwardly, allowing the stopper 123 to be inserted through the upper end of the guide hole 144 and extend from the lower end of the guide hole 144. After extending out of the guide hole 144, the lower end of the guide post 122 returns to its natural state, with the stopper 123 blocking the lower end of the guide hole 144.

[0040] The shape of the cover plate of the top cover 12 is not limited. In this embodiment, the top cover plate is circular, but in other embodiments, it can also be square or other shapes.

[0041] In order to further enhance the anti-odor and anti-backflow functions, a check valve 2 is provided. The check valve 2 is combined with the vertical one-way valve 1 to achieve double anti-odor and anti-backflow. The check valve 2 includes a valve body 21, a flap 23 and a gravity ball 24. The valve body 21 is provided with a flow port 22. The flap 23 is hinged on the valve body 21 and tilted to cover the flow port 22. The flow port 22 and the flap 23 are tilted along the water outlet direction, and the tilt angle is less than 90°. When draining, the water flow will flush the flap 23 open and drain smoothly. The gravity ball 24 is set on the flap 23 to increase the weight of the flap 23. When there is no water to be discharged, the flap 23 is pressed on the flow port 22 to prevent water from flowing back and odor from backwashing.

[0042] The check valve 2 and the vertical one-way valve 1 can be used separately or in combination, or they can be combined with the inner cup 3 and the horizontal cup 4 to form an integral structure. The inner cup 3 is connected at both ends, and is installed through the bottom of the pool. The horizontal cup 4 is located outside the pool and is connected to the bottom of the inner cup 3. The horizontal cup 4 is connected to the inner cup 3 and is connected to the inner cavity of the inner cup 3. The vertical one-way valve 1 is installed in the inner cup 3, and the check valve 2 is installed in the transverse section of the horizontal cup 4. The outer wall of the shell 11 is provided with a sealing ring 113, which is tightly attached between the outer wall of the shell 11 and the inner wall of the inner cup 3, enhancing the sealing between the vertical one-way valve 1 and the inner cup 3. When draining, water flows out of the vertical one-way valve 1 into the inner cavity of the horizontal cup 4, and then discharged from the check valve 2.

[0043] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
