Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pipeline dredging, in particular to a manual pipeline dredging device. Background Art

[0002] A pipe dredge is a tool used to clear and unclog sewers. It comes in various types, including wire and pneumatic, and is an indispensable tool in modern household life. Drain pipes in bathrooms and kitchens often become clogged due to long-term use, necessitating the use of a pipe dredge. Currently, the most common type is a hand-cranked spring dredge, which includes a housing containing a retractable spring. The spring is inserted into the pipe, locked when it reaches the blockage, and then rotated and agitated to wrap the blockage around the spring. Finally, the spring is pulled out to unclog the pipe. Because the spring has no support at the end when inserted into the toilet pipe, rotating and agitating after the spring is locked can contact the glaze inside the toilet bowl, easily damaging the glaze and making subsequent toilet use more prone to blockage. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art and to propose a manual pipeline dredge.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

The shell is a cavity structure, one end of the clearing spring passes through the locking piece and the connecting sleeve, is coiled in the shell, and is connected to the handle. Rotating the handle can extend or retract the clearing spring, and the locking piece can lock and fix the clearing spring. The supporting mechanism is used to control the range of movement of the clearing spring so that the clearing spring can be located in the center of the pipe, reducing the contact and collision between the clearing spring and the pipe glaze, not easily damaging the pipe glaze, and reducing the risk of subsequent blockage of the pipe.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1-5 The manual pipe dredge comprises a housing 1, a handle 2 eccentrically arranged on one side of the housing 1, a connecting sleeve 3 arranged on one side of the housing 1, a grip 4 arranged on one side of the connecting sleeve 3, a locking member 5 rotatably arranged at one end of the connecting sleeve 3, a dredge spring 6 slidably arranged in the connecting sleeve 3, and a support mechanism 7 provided on the dredge spring 6. The housing 1 is a hollow structure. One end of the dredge spring 6 passes through the locking member 5 and the connecting sleeve 3 and is coiled in the housing 1 and connected to the handle 2. Rotating the handle 2 can extend or retract the dredge spring 6. The locking member 5 can lock or release the dredge spring 6. An anti-slip pad is provided on the grip 4. The support mechanism 7 is used to control the range of motion of the dredge spring 6 so that the dredge spring 6 can be located in the center of the pipe, reducing contact and collision between the dredge spring 6 and the pipe glaze, making it less likely to damage the pipe glaze and reduce the risk of subsequent blockage of the pipe.

[0023] Specifically, the connecting sleeve 3 includes a guide tube 301, an isolation sleeve 302 and an outer sleeve 303. The guide tube 301 is arranged at the center of one side of the shell 1, and the guide tube 301 is arranged along the axial direction of the shell 1. The isolation sleeve 302 is slidably sleeved on the outer circumference of the guide tube 301, and the outer sleeve 303 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the isolation sleeve 302. When in use, the user holds the handle 4 and rotates the handle 2 to drive the guide tube 301 to rotate in the isolation sleeve 302.

[0024] An annular gasket 304 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the guide tube 301 . The annular gasket 304 is installed at the bottom end of the isolation sleeve 302 . The annular gasket 304 is made of metal material to reduce friction between the bottom end of the isolation sleeve 302 and the housing 1 .

[0025] The isolation sleeve 302 is provided with a partition ring 3021, a protrusion 3022, a groove 3023 and a limiting groove 3024. There are multiple partition rings 3021, and multiple partition rings 3021 are arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the isolation sleeve 302 to reduce the rotational friction of the guide tube 301 and make it easier to dissipate heat. The isolation sleeve 302 is symmetrically divided into two half sleeves. The protrusion 3022 and the groove 3023 are both vertically arranged on opposite sides of the two half sleeves, and the protrusion 3022 and the groove 3023 match, so that the two half sleeves can be nested into a ring. The limiting groove 3024 is horizontally arranged around the outer circumference of the isolation sleeve 302. The inner wall of the outer sleeve 303 is provided with an annular protrusion 3031, and the shape of the annular protrusion 3031 matches the limiting groove 3024.

[0026] The supporting mechanism 7 includes a mounting ring 701, a telescopic rod 702, a baffle 703, a movable ring 704, a connecting rod 705, a fixed ring 706 and an adjusting spring 707. The mounting ring 701 is fixedly arranged on the outer circumference of the dredging spring 6, the telescopic rod 702 is arranged on the outer circumference of the mounting ring 701, the baffle 703 is connected to one end of the telescopic rod 702, the movable ring 704 is slidably sleeved on the outer circumference of the dredging spring 6, one end of the connecting rod 705 is rotatably connected to the baffle 703, and the other end is rotatably connected to the movable ring 704, the fixed ring 706 is arranged on the outer circumference of the dredging spring 6, the adjusting spring 707 is wrapped around the outer circumference of the dredging spring 6, one end of the adjusting spring 707 is connected to the movable ring 704, and the other end is connected to the fixed ring 706.

[0027] The side of the baffle 703 away from the telescopic rod 702 is hemispherical, which is conducive to the expansion and contraction of the baffle 703.

[0028] There are several telescopic rods 702, baffles 703 and connecting rods 705. In this embodiment, there are four telescopic rods 702, baffles 703 and connecting rods 705. Figure 5 When the outer side of the baffle 703 is squeezed by the pipeline, the telescopic rod 702 is compressed, driving the connecting rod 705 to squeeze the movable ring 704 downward, and the movable ring 704 squeezes the adjusting spring 707 downward, compressing the adjusting spring 707. Under the elastic force of the adjusting spring 707, the movable ring 704 presses the connecting rod 705 upward, and the connecting rod 705 presses the baffle 703 outward, so that the baffle 703 maintains a contact state with the outer pipeline, and the support mechanism 7 is located near the center of the pipeline.

[0029] During use, the adjustment spring 707 is initially in an extended state, and the baffle 703 spreads out toward the outer circumference of the dredging spring 6. One end of the dredging spring 6 is placed into the pipe opening that needs to be dredged. The handle 4 is held and the handle 2 is turned to extend the dredging spring 6 and the supporting mechanism 7 into the pipe. The supporting mechanism 7 will shrink and expand with the diameter of the pipe, allowing the dredging spring 6 to remain in a central position in the pipe, so that the dredging spring 6 remains in a central position in the pipe when rotating and stirring, and is not easily damaged by the glaze inside the pipe.
