[0029] In the present embodiment, the two arc-shaped diaphragms 221 are symmetrically arranged and one side is provided with an openable and closable opening 21. This structure design makes the check plug 2 a one-way channel structure. When the anti-backflow drainage four-way pipe joint drains water from the second pipe interface 15, the water flow extrudes the inner wall of the arc-shaped diaphragm 221, so that the two arc-shaped diaphragms 221 are opened, thereby opening the opening 21 to smoothly realize drainage. When the sewage pipe connected by the second pipe interface 15 backflows, the backflow water extrudes the outer wall of the arc-shaped diaphragm 221, so that the two arc-shaped diaphragms 221 are closed, thereby closing the opening 21 to prevent sewage from flowing in. Thus, the anti-backflow drainage four-way pipe joint realizes good sealing and backflow prevention functions through the check plug 2 with the openable and closable opening 21, while realizing the centralized and smooth drainage of the whole machine. It can effectively prevent sewage backflow, prevent sewer odor from returning, and prevent mosquitoes from entering the internal equipment.

[0032] In the present embodiment, the check plug 2 is sealingly mounted in the mounting groove 16 of the pipe joint body 1 through the mounting boss 24. Since the mounting boss 24 is sealingly connected with the inner wall of the pipe joint body 1, the anti-backflow drainage four-way pipe joint has good sealing and backflow prevention functions, which avoids sewage flowing into the anti-backflow drainage four-way pipe joint from the gap between the outer wall of the check plug 2 and the inner wall of the pipe joint body 1, effectively prevents sewage backflow, prevents sewer odor from returning, and prevents mosquitoes from entering the internal equipment. The check plug body 23 and the mounting boss 24 can also be an integral structure.

[0037] In some embodiments, the second pipe joint 13 is connected with a hot water tank drainage electromagnetic valve of a water preparation device through a pipeline, and is used for draining stored water in the hot water tank.
[0038] In the embodiment, the second pipe joint 13 can be connected with the hot water tank drainage electromagnetic valve of the water preparation device by using a silica gel pipe.
[0039] In some embodiments, the first pipe interface 11 is connected with a water collecting disc below a water receiving part of a water preparation device through a pipeline, and is used for draining water collected by the water collecting disc.
[0040] In the embodiment, the first pipe interface 11 can be connected with the water collecting disc below the water receiving part of the water preparation device by using a plastic corrugated pipe.

Specifically, when the pipe is sleeved on the outer wall of the first pipe interface 11, the first pipe joint 12, and the second pipe joint 13, the pipe is clamped in the groove by the clamp to prevent the pipe from falling off. Since the second pipe joint 13 is connected to the silica gel pipe, the silica gel pipe at the position of the second pipe joint 13 is more likely to fall off, and therefore a plurality of third grooves 131 are arranged on the outer wall of the second pipe joint 13 to increase the friction between the second pipe joint 13 and the silica gel pipe and to be fixed by the clamp being tightened, so that the clamp can clamp the silica gel pipe in the groove, and the anti-falling effect is further enhanced.
