When water flows through the drain pipeline to the storage cavity 40, a small part of the liquid may enter the first interface 22 through the first water outlet 224, at this time, the floating ball 226c floats up due to its small density, thereby blocking the channel one of the annular protruding portion 226a and sealing the first interface 22, preventing the liquid in the drain pipeline from flowing into the water softener through the overflow pipeline.
[0069] In some embodiments, the flow blocking structure 226 includes a plurality of baffles 226b arranged in the first interface 22, which can effectively block the backflow of sewage without affecting the discharge of overflow liquid, and has low cost and good effect.
[0070] In some embodiments, the outer surface of the first interface 22 and the second interface 24 is formed with an anti-skid structure. Understandably, in order to prevent the first interface 22 and the overflow pipeline, and the second interface 24 and the drain pipeline from being pulled apart, an anti-skid structure can be provided on the connecting surface of the first interface 22 and the first interface 22 and the overflow pipeline and the drain pipeline to increase the friction; in general, the commonly used anti-skid structures can be applied to the present embodiment, such as forming protrusions on the surface, forming barbed edges along the circumference of the surface, etc. Further, fasteners such as clamps are provided on the outside of the overflow pipeline and the drain pipeline to strengthen the connection of the first interface and the overflow pipeline, and the connection of the second interface and the drain pipeline, so as to prevent the overflow pipeline or the drain pipeline from being pulled apart, causing liquid to spill, and affecting the user's experience.
[0071] In some embodiments, the floor drain is integrally formed, which is convenient for users to use directly.
[0072] Referring to Figure 10The utility model also provides a kind of soft water machine, soft water machine includes body, overflow pipeline 52, drain pipeline 54 and above-mentioned anti-backflow floor drain;Body is equipped with overflow port and drain port, overflow pipeline 52 one end is connected with overflow port, other end is connected with the first interface of anti-backflow floor drain;Drain pipeline 54 one end is connected with drain port, other end is connected with the second interface of anti-backflow floor drain, anti-backflow floor drain is installed in sewer pipe 60, and its water outlet part 30 is communicated with sewer pipe 60, liquid in overflow pipeline 52, drain pipeline 54 is discharged into sewer pipe 60.
[0073] Body is also equipped with treatment tank and salt tank, treatment tank can be accommodated with resin for ion exchange and substance for improving water quality, and high-concentration concentrated brine is formed in salt tank.When hard water contacts resin, potassium ion and sodium ion in resin replace calcium ion and magnesium ion in hard water, thereby improving water quality.Treatment tank uses a period of time, and the concentration of sodium ion and potassium ion in resin is low, and the regeneration process of resin is needed.At this time, concentrated brine in salt tank is input into treatment tank, and sodium ion and potassium ion in treatment tank are replenished, and waste water containing calcium ion and magnesium ion after reaction is discharged to sewer pipe through drain port, drain pipeline and anti-backflow floor drain.After concentrated brine in salt tank is input into treatment tank, water is replenished in salt tank, and water and salt in salt tank are re-formed into concentrated brine, and when water injected into salt tank is excessive, excessive water is discharged to sewer pipe through overflow port, overflow pipeline and anti-backflow floor drain.Backwashing is needed before regeneration of resin, and forward flushing is needed after regeneration of resin, and waste water generated during backwashing and forward flushing is discharged to sewer pipe through drain port, drain pipeline and anti-backflow floor drain.
[0074] The anti-backflow floor drain in the embodiment can have the same structure and achieve the same effect as the anti-backflow floor drain in the above embodiment, and the embodiment will not be described again.
[0075] The working principle of the anti-backflow floor drain of the utility model is as follows:
[0076] The first interface of the anti-backflow floor drain is connected with the overflow pipeline of the soft water machine, the second interface is connected with the drain pipeline of the soft water machine, when water in the salt tank of the soft water machine is excessive, the excessive water enters the retention cavity through the overflow pipeline, the first water inlet and the first water outlet, and then is discharged to the sewer pipe through the water outlet part;When waste water in the soft water machine needs to be discharged, the waste water enters the retention cavity through the drain pipeline, the second water inlet and the second water outlet, and then is discharged to the sewer pipe through the water outlet part;When the first water outlet and the second water outlet simultaneously have liquid discharge, the anti-backflow structure separates and guides the liquid of the first water outlet and the second water outlet, reduces the direct contact and mixing of water flow on both sides of the anti-backflow structure, thereby reducing the adhesion of water flow on both sides, and further reducing the backflow of water flow to the soft water machine.
[0077] Compared with the prior art, the utility model technical scheme has the beneficial effects as follows:
[0078] (1) By setting the hollow part in the side wall of the main body, the backflow prevention floor drain is the same as the sewer gas pressure, effectively preventing the sewage from being sucked back due to the negative pressure formed in the floor drain;
[0079] (2) By setting the backflow prevention structure between the first water outlet and the second water outlet, the water outlet of the case is prevented from being adhered to form backflow, and the water outlet of the drain is sucked into the machine from the overflow water outlet due to negative pressure during regeneration of the water softener;
[0080] (3) By setting the partition, the water outlet areas of the first interface and the second interface are isolated, direct mixing and contact of the water outlets of the two interfaces are avoided, and water flow is hindered from flowing back to the water softener through the other interface;
[0081] (4) By setting the protrusion in the middle of the partition, the water outlets of the two interfaces are guided to flow along the surface thereof, and the intersection and interference between the water flows are reduced;
[0082] (5) By setting the cone with a pointed end facing the water outlet part, the flow direction of the water outlets of the two interfaces is changed, when the water flow passes through the cone, the water flow will be guided to generate vortex effect by the shape of the cone, which helps to disperse the water flow, prevent the water flow from impacting the water flow of the other interface, when the water outlet of the interface attempts to flow back to the water softener through the other interface, the flow direction will be changed by the guidance of the protrusion and the cone, so that it cannot directly enter the other interface, in addition, the pointed end of the cone helps to destroy the possible siphon effect, preventing the water in the drain line from flowing back to the water softener due to negative pressure;
[0083] (6) By setting the anti-skid structure and the fastener, the first interface and the overflow line, the second interface and the drain line are prevented from being popped open;
[0084] (7) By setting the flow resistance structure inside the first interface, the liquid remaining in the cavity is further prevented from flowing back from the first interface;
[0085] (8) By setting the flow guide plate at the second water outlet, the water outlet of the second water outlet is guided and dispersed, and the mutual adhesion of the water outlets of the two interfaces to cause backflow is further reduced.
[0086] The above embodiments only express several embodiments of the utility model, and the description is more specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, without departing from the concept of the utility model, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, and the utility model also intends to include these changes and modifications.
