Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of valves, and in particular to an anti-sludge discharge ball valve. Background Technology
[0002] A ball valve is a type of valve. To open a ball valve, the valve stem is turned by the handle. When the valve stem turns, the spherical opening and closing element inside the ball valve body rotates synchronously. When the opening and closing orifice of the spherical opening and closing element is coaxial with the water outlet and water inlet on the left and right sides of the ball valve, the ball valve is in a fully open state. The water inlet can be connected to the water outlet through the opening and closing orifice of the spherical opening and closing element. When the spherical opening and closing element rotates back in the opposite direction with the opening and closing orifice, the two ends of the opening and closing orifice will be blocked and sealed by the inner wall of the valve body. At this time, the ball valve is in a closed state.
[0003] Therefore, to open a ball valve, the spherical opening and closing element must be able to rotate smoothly. However, when the ball valve is used as a drain valve, as the ball valve is in the closed state, sewage will be trapped in the inlet of the ball valve. At this time, impurities in the sewage will accumulate. The impurities will continuously accumulate on the outer ring of the spherical opening and closing element near the inlet. As more and more impurities accumulate, the resistance they can form will increase. Eventually, the spherical opening and closing element will be obstructed by the accumulated impurities when rotating, making it difficult for the spherical opening and closing element to rotate and affecting the flow of sewage during drainage. If the impurities accumulated in the inlet are to be cleaned, the ball valve can only be removed from the sewage system pipeline. This cleaning method is extremely troublesome, and the ball valve must be reinstalled on the sewage system pipeline afterward, which seriously affects the cleaning efficiency.

The movable seat can move left and right along the trajectory of the bottom of the displacement groove via the displacement structure, thereby allowing the cleaning head to move left and right.
[0007] A spring hole is provided at the center of the upper end face of the movable seat; a guide hole communicating with the internal space of the water inlet connector is provided at the center of the bottom of the spring hole; a matching limiting head is provided in the upper opening of the spring hole; a hexagonal disassembly hole is provided at the center of the limiting head; the telescopic rod passes through the guide hole, the spring hole and the disassembly hole; a limiting part that fits against the lower surface of the limiting head is provided on the outer wall of the telescopic rod; a return spring is sleeved on the telescopic rod between the lower surface of the limiting part and the bottom of the spring hole.
[0008] There is a pressing gap between the lower surface of the pressing head and the upper surface of the limiting head.
[0009] The displacement structure includes a left fixed foot located on the left side of the lower end of the movable base and a right fixed foot located on the right side of the lower end of the movable base. The lower surface of both the left and right fixed feet are in contact with the bottom of the displacement groove. The left fixed foot has a left elongated oval hole, and the right fixed foot has a right elongated oval hole. The left side of the bottom of the displacement groove has a left screw hole corresponding to the position of the left elongated oval hole, and the right side of the bottom of the displacement groove has a right screw hole corresponding to the position of the right elongated oval hole. A left screw passes downward through the left elongated oval hole and is screwed into the left screw hole. The head of the left screw presses against the upper surface of the left fixed foot, and the left screw is in contact with the inner wall of the left side of the left elongated oval hole. A right screw passes downward through the right elongated oval hole and is screwed into the right screw hole.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] Compared with the prior art, when siltation occurs at the end of the ball-shaped opening and closing component of the anti-siltation drain ball valve with the structure of this utility model near the water inlet connector, the telescopic rod can be pressed down and rotated by pressing the pressing head. As the telescopic rod moves down and rotates, the cleaning head will move down and rotate simultaneously. Thus, the rotating cleaning head can effectively break up the accumulated impurities and disperse them. If the siltation is more severe, the sealing cap screwed to the lower end of the drain connector can be unscrewed first, so that the cleaning head can remove part of the accumulated impurities through the drain connector during the downward movement. Accumulated impurities are squeezed directly downwards to the outside. When using the drain connector, a water collection bucket can be placed directly below the drain connector to facilitate the centralized treatment of discharged impurities. As a large amount of impurities accumulated on the outer ring of the spherical opening and closing part are cleaned, other impurities will also be flushed out under the impact of the water flow, thereby effectively preventing accumulated impurities from affecting the rotation of the spherical opening and closing part and ensuring that the spherical opening and closing part can rotate normally. The entire cleaning process does not require disassembling the ball valve from the sewage system pipe, and can quickly clean the impurities accumulated in the water inlet connector, achieving the effect of preventing siltation.

[0021] There is a pressing gap 24 between the lower surface of the pressing head 16 and the upper surface of the limiting head 20.
[0022] The displacement structure includes a left fixed foot 25 located on the left side of the lower end of the movable base 12 and a right fixed foot 26 located on the right side of the lower end of the movable base 12. The lower surfaces of both the left fixed foot 25 and the right fixed foot 26 are in contact with the bottom of the displacement groove 10.

[0024] The outer wall of the cleaning head 17 is provided with a spiral blade or several cutting blades 36 evenly distributed around the circumference.
[0025] The displacement groove 10 has an annular sealing groove 37 at the center of its bottom, which encloses the upper opening of the displacement hole 11; a matching sealing ring 38 is provided inside the sealing groove 37.
[0026] The inner wall of the guide hole 19 is provided with a plurality of annular grooves 39 evenly distributed in the axial direction; an O-ring 40 matching it is provided in the annular groove 39.
[0027] The method of using this utility model is as follows:
[0028] When siltation occurs at the end of the spherical opening / closing part 2 near the water inlet connector 4, the telescopic rod 15 can be pressed down and rotated by the pressing head 16. As the telescopic rod 15 moves down and rotates, the cleaning head 17 will move down and rotate synchronously. The rotating cleaning head 17 can effectively break up the accumulated impurities and disperse them. If the siltation is severe, the sealing cover 9 screwed to the lower end of the drain connector 8 can be unscrewed first, so that the cleaning head 17 can directly remove some of the accumulated impurities through the drain connector 8 during its downward movement. Squeezing downwards to the outside, when using the drain connector 8, a water collection bucket can be placed directly below the drain connector 8 to facilitate the centralized treatment of discharged impurities. As a large amount of impurities accumulated on the outer ring of the ball valve 2 are cleaned, other impurities will also be flushed out under the impact of the water flow, thereby effectively preventing the accumulated impurities from affecting the rotation of the ball valve 2 and ensuring that the ball valve 2 can rotate normally. The entire cleaning process does not require disassembling the ball valve from the sewage system pipe, and the impurities accumulated in the inlet connector 4 can be quickly cleaned, achieving the effect of preventing siltation.
[0029] During the actual cleaning process, the impurities tend to concentrate near the end of the ball-type opening and closing part 2 adjacent to the water inlet connector 4. In this case, the position of the moving seat 12 can be changed via the shifting structure, thereby changing the position of the cleaning head 17. This makes it easier for the cleaning head 17 to apply pressure to the accumulated impurities and break them up. To change the position of the moving seat 12, simply rotate the left screw 31 and right screw 32 upwards. This removes the downward pressure from the heads of both screws, allowing the left and right fixed feet 25 and 26 on the lower left and right sides of the moving seat 12 to move. At this time, the left fixed foot 25... 5. Following the inner wall trajectory of the left elongated hole 27, the right fixed foot 26 follows the inner wall trajectory of the right elongated hole 28, while the lower end face of the moving seat 12 moves to the left against the bottom of the shifting groove 10. The shifting gap 14 between the outer wall of the shifting head 13 and the shifting hole 11 ensures that the moving seat 12 can move smoothly to the left. When the moving seat 12 moves to the left, the cleaning head 17 moves to the left simultaneously. After the cleaning head 17 moves to the actual required position, the left screw 31 and the right screw 32 can be tightened downwards. Then, the cleaning head 17 can be pressed down again by pressing the pressing head 16 or rotating the cleaning head 17 to achieve the effect of cleaning impurities.
[0030] The limiting head 20 has a hexagonal disassembly hole 21 at its center. When the telescopic rod 15 does not pass through the disassembly hole 21, one end of the Allen wrench can be inserted into the disassembly hole 21. At this time, the limiting head 20 can be easily rotated to achieve quick disassembly and assembly of the limiting head 20.
[0031] The telescopic rod 15 has a limiting part 22 on its outer wall that fits against the lower surface of the limiting head 20. The telescopic rod 15 is fitted with a return spring located between the lower surface of the limiting part 22 and the bottom of the spring hole 18. When the telescopic rod 15 moves down, the limiting part 22 moves down synchronously. At this time, the return spring 23 is compressed downward and generates elastic force. This elastic force can help the telescopic rod 15 and the cleaning head 17 to move up and reset quickly after the user releases the pressing head 16.
[0032] There is a pressing gap 24 between the lower surface of the pressing head 16 and the upper surface of the limiting head 20. The existence of the pressing gap 24 can effectively ensure that the pressing head 16 has sufficient downward stroke, thereby ensuring that the cleaning head has sufficient downward stroke and ensuring the cleaning range of the cleaning head 17.
[0033] A square head 33 is provided at the center of the upper end face and the center of the lower end face of the telescopic rod 15. A square hole 34 matching the square head 33 is provided at the center of the lower surface of the pressing head 16 and the center of the upper surface of the cleaning head 17. The pressing head 16 and the square head 33 at the center of the upper end face of the telescopic rod 15, and the cleaning head 17 and the square head 33 at the center of the lower end face of the telescopic rod 15 are fixed by a fastening screw 35. This fixing method can not only effectively ensure the stability between the upper end of the telescopic rod 15 and the pressing head 16, and between the lower end of the telescopic rod 15 and the cleaning head 17, but also facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the pressing head 16 and the cleaning head 17.
[0034] The outer wall of the cleaning head 17 is provided with a spiral blade or several cutting blades 36 evenly distributed in a circle. When the cleaning head 17 rotates, the spiral blade or cutting blades 36 rotate synchronously, which effectively ensures the cutting and cleaning effect of the cleaning head 17 and makes it easier to break up the accumulated impurities.
[0035] The bottom of the displacement groove 10 is provided with an annular sealing groove 37. The sealing groove 37 surrounds the upper opening of the displacement hole 11. A matching sealing ring 38 is provided inside the sealing groove 37. The presence of the sealing ring 38 can effectively ensure the sealing between the lower end face of the moving seat 12 and the bottom of the displacement groove 10, and prevent water leakage.
[0036] The inner wall of the guide hole 19 is provided with several annular grooves 39 evenly distributed in the axial direction. The annular grooves 39 are provided with matching O-rings 40. The presence of O-rings 40 can effectively seal the outer wall of the telescopic rod 15 and the inner wall of the guide hole 19, and prevent water leakage.
