[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0024] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the illustration, this application provides an integrated space-saving odor-blocking drainer for use with sanitary ware. It connects the sanitary ware to the drain pipe to discharge wastewater into the drain. The drainer must not only discharge wastewater but also prevent odors from flowing back into the drain pipe. Traditional drainers typically achieve this by using S-shaped pipes or magnetic / gravity baffles. These drainers have several drawbacks. For example, the S-shaped pipe requires significant space for continuous turns, and the magnetic / gravity baffles also require considerable space for their movement. Therefore, these drainers require a large installation space, while the space at the bottom of sanitary ware is usually limited, making installation inconvenient or even impossible. The integrated space-saving odor-blocking drainer provided in this application aims to reduce the space required for installation and improve the convenience of installation at the bottom of sanitary ware.

[0025] This integrated space-saving odor-blocking drain includes a shell body, which is shell-shaped and has an internal space forming a flow channel for water flow. The shell body also has an inlet and an outlet connected by the flow channel. Water flows into the flow channel from the inlet and then flows through the flow channel to the outlet. The shell body also has a partition plate 300, which is plate-shaped and blocks the upper part of the flow channel cross-section. Without blocking the lower part of the flow channel cross-section, the partition plate 300 divides the flow channel into a first cavity and a second cavity arranged sequentially and interconnected, along the flow direction of the water flow within the flow channel. The first cavity is located upstream of the second cavity, and the sequence along the flow direction is: inlet, first cavity, partition plate 300, second cavity, and outlet. In this embodiment, the water flows within the flow channel. In the vertical direction of gravity, for the location of the partition plate 300, the partition plate 300... The upper part of the partition plate 300 is connected to the upper inner wall of the flow channel, while the lower part of the partition plate 300 is not connected to the lower inner wall of the flow channel. This allows water to flow through the gap between the lower part of the partition plate 300 and the lower inner wall of the flow channel. Furthermore, the first cavity is connected to the inlet, and the second cavity is connected to the outlet. The heights of the inlet, outlet, and lower edge of the partition plate 300 decrease sequentially; that is, the height of the inlet is higher than the height of the outlet, and the height of the outlet is higher than the height of the lower edge of the partition plate 300. Here, the lower edge height of the partition plate 300 refers to... The lower edge of the partition plate 300 and the lower inner wall of the flow channel form a gap for water flow. The highest height of this gap refers to the lower edge height of the partition plate 300. More specifically, the lowest point of the water inlet is higher than the lowest point of the drain outlet, and the lowest point of the drain outlet is higher than the lower edge height of the partition plate 300. In this way, a water seal can be formed at this point under the action of the partition plate 300. The water seal can achieve the odor-blocking effect. In practice, the water inlet is connected to the sanitary ware, and the drain outlet is connected to the sewer pipe.

[0026] In this embodiment, the partition plate 300 is disposed inside the outer shell body, with a compact overall structure, occupying little space, which is conducive to installation in narrow spaces and makes installation more convenient.

[0027] Preferably, the outer shell body includes a first section and a second section 200. The extension directions of the first section and the second section 200 are different. One end of the first section is open, and the open end of the first section constitutes a water inlet. Both ends of the second section 200 are open, and one end of the second section 200 is connected to the side of the first section. Preferably, the extension directions of the first section and the second section 200 are perpendicular to each other. Taking the extension direction of the first section as vertical as an example, the extension direction of the second section 200 is horizontal. Both the first section and the second section 200 have a tubular structure. The top of the first section is a water inlet. The left end of the second section 200 is connected to the right side of the first section, and the internal cavity of the second section 200 is connected to the internal cavity of the first section. A partition plate 300 is disposed inside the connection between the first section and the second section 200. The top of the partition plate 300 is connected to the top of the inner wall of the connection between the second section 200 and the first section. The internal cavities of the first section and the second section 200 form a flow channel.

[0028] In this embodiment, a high point 201 is provided at the lower gravity part of the second section 200. The lower gravity part refers to the downstream side along the gravity direction in the cross section of the extended second section 200. That is, when the second section 200 extends horizontally, the lower part of the second section 200 is the lower gravity part. The high point 201 of the second section 200 is arched towards the inside of the flow channel. The position of the high point 201 in the flow channel constitutes the drain outlet. The bottom sidewall of the second section 200 is partially concave inward, forming a necked structure. This causes the lower sidewall of the second section 200 to be concave inward, thereby increasing the height of the high point 201 in the horizontal direction, so as to cooperate with the partition plate 300 to form a water seal. This facilitates the increase of drainage space. The concave structure of the second section 200 and the partition plate 300 cooperate to facilitate a compact structural design.

[0029] In this embodiment, the sealed end of the first section expands towards the second section 200 and transitions to connect with the lower part of the second section 200 under gravity. That is, the top part of the first section is roughly cylindrical, and the bottom part of the first section near the second section 200 expands towards the second section 200 to transition to connect with the bottom of the second section 200. This results in the bottom cross-section of the first section being roughly elliptical, and the portion of the bottom of the first section expanding towards the second section 200 forming an arc shape, which also forms a vertical wall. This vertical wall transitions to connect with the high point 201 of the second section 200, forming the bottom wall of the flow channel at that location.

[0030] Preferably, the first section is designed as a two-part structure, comprising a straight section 101 and a sealing section 102. The straight section 101 and the sealing section 102 are connected. The straight section 101 is open at both ends, and the sealing section 102 is open at one end. The open end of the sealing section 102 is connected to one end of the straight section 101. The open end of the sealing section 102 and one end of the straight section 101 can be connected by adhesive, insertion, or other means, preferably by welding. The top open end of the straight section 101 constitutes the water inlet. The bottom end of the straight section 101 is connected to the top open end of the sealing section 102. The bottom end of the sealing section is sealed. The straight section 101 and the sealing section are first formed and manufactured separately, which makes forming more convenient. Then, the straight section 101 and the sealing section 102 are connected by welding, which makes the connection more stable.

[0031] More preferably, a cap 103 is detachably provided on the sealing section 102. The cap 103 can open or close the sealing section 102. The cap 103 is detachably provided at the bottom end of the sealing section 102. The cap 103 extends to the first cavity and the second cavity. That is, in the vertical projection, the projection range of the cap 103 extends to the projection range of the first cavity and the projection range of the second cavity, so that the projection of the partition plate 300 is also within the projection range of the cap 103. The space to the left of the partition plate 300 is the first cavity, and the space to the right of the partition plate 300 is the second cavity. In this way, by removing the cap 103, it is convenient to remove debris from the water seal position and to clean the pipe. The cap 103 can be connected to the bottom of the sealing section 102 by means of a threaded connection. The bottom of the sealing section 102 can be provided with a circular opening so as to connect with the cap 103 by thread.

[0032] More preferably, a partition sleeve 400 is provided inside the first section, with a gap space between the outer wall of the partition sleeve 400 and the inner wall of the first section. An overflow channel for water flow is formed between the partition sleeve 400 and the first section. The top of the overflow channel is open, and the bottom of the overflow channel is connected to the flow channel. An inner sleeve 500 is axially movable inside the partition sleeve 400 and is connected to the flow channel. The portion of the inner sleeve 500 extending out of the first section is provided with a first edge 601. The bottom end of the inner sleeve 500 extends out of the partition sleeve 400 and into the first cavity. The top end of the inner sleeve 500 extends upward out of the partition sleeve 400. A full circumference of the first edge 601 is provided on the outer side of the top end of the inner sleeve 500. The first edge 601 extends radially outward. A second edge 602 is provided at one end corresponding to the water inlet of the first section. That is, a full circumference of the second edge 602 is provided at the top end of the first section. Extending radially outward, the first edge 601 and the second edge 602 cooperate with each other for installation on the sanitary ware. In this embodiment, the top opening of the inner sleeve 500 should be understood as the inlet of the flow channel. The top of the partition sleeve 400 is slightly lower than the top of the first section. During installation, the second edge 602 of the top of the first section abuts against the bottom of the sanitary ware. The inner sleeve 500 passes through the sanitary ware from the top and into the partition sleeve 400. The inner sleeve 500 and the partition sleeve 400 can be connected by a threaded connection. The first edge 601 and the second edge 602 cooperate to clamp the sanitary ware, thereby completing the installation. The wastewater inside the sanitary ware can be discharged into the flow channel through the inner sleeve 500. The water at the overflow hole of the sanitary ware can flow into the flow channel through the top of the overflow channel. Thus, the drain can be used for both sanitary ware with overflow and sanitary ware without overflow.

[0033] In this embodiment, a sealing gasket 700 can be provided on the second edge 602. The sealing gasket 700 is annular and its inner diameter is smaller than the outer diameter of the overflow channel. The sealing gasket 700 increases the sealing between the gasket and the sanitary ware.

[0034] In this embodiment, multiple connecting fins 800 are arranged circumferentially and at intervals between the outer wall of the partition sleeve 400 and the outer wall of the first section, so that the overflow channel between the outer wall of the partition sleeve 400 and the inner wall of the first section forms multiple vertical channels. In this embodiment, the upper sidewall of the second section 200 passes through the first section until it connects to the partition sleeve 400. Then, the connection between the upper sidewall of the second section 200 and the partition sleeve 400 extends vertically downward to form a partition plate 300. The horizontal direction of the partition plate 300... Both sides are connected to the inner wall of the first section to form a water seal structure. In this embodiment, the partition sleeve 400 is located within the straight section 101. An overflow channel is formed between the outer wall of the partition sleeve 400 and the inner wall of the straight section 101. In the vertical direction, both ends of the partition sleeve 400 are recessed into the ends of the straight section 101 by a certain distance. That is, the top height of the partition sleeve 400 is slightly lower than the top height of the straight section 101, and the bottom height of the partition sleeve 400 is slightly higher than the bottom height of the straight section 101.

[0035] More preferably, a window 501 is provided on the outer periphery of the end of the inner sleeve 500 that extends into the flow channel. The window 501 penetrates the side wall of the inner sleeve 500 to facilitate water flow. In actual installation, if the bottom end of the inner sleeve 500 abuts against the bottom of the first section, that is, if it abuts against the cover 103, the normal drainage will not be affected by the window 501. Two windows 501 can be provided relative to each other, making the drainage smoother.

[0036] More preferably, one end of the second section 200 is connected to the first section, and the other end of the second section 200 is connected to the drain hose 900. The drain hose 900 can be a threaded hose, which is convenient for bending and deformation connection, so as to connect with the sewer pipe.
