[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a water bath level indicator device, including a water bath 1 and a glass bend 2. The structure of the water bath 1 is no different from other water baths 1 in the prior art, and the basic mechanism and working principle are all in the prior art, so it will not be described further.

[0026] The glass bend 2 is placed vertically at the front end of the water bath 1. The bottom of the glass bend 2 is bent backward and connected to the inside of the water bath 1. When the water bath 1 is in use, the water inside it can enter the glass bend 2 from below. Due to the principle of communicating vessels, the water level in the glass bend 2 will be the same as the water level in the water bath 1. Therefore, by observing the water level in the glass bend 2, the water level in the water bath 1 can be directly determined.

[0027] The outer surface of the glass bend 2 is provided with scale lines 21, which are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the glass bend 2. The water level in the glass bend 2 can also be read through the scale lines 21, so as to obtain a more accurate water level. In addition, a colored float 26 is placed in the glass bend 2. The float 26 is located in the vertical part of the bend 2 and floats above the water surface in the glass bend 2. The colored float 26 is easier to observe and read in conjunction with the scale lines 21. An annular ring 25 is fixed to the inner wall of the glass bend 2 below the float 26. The inner diameter of the ring 25 is smaller than the diameter of the float 26. When the water in the water bath 1 is drained, the ring 25 restricts the descent height of the float 26 to prevent the float 26 from falling into the horizontal part of the glass bend 2 and getting stuck. It can rise normally when the water level rises in subsequent use.

[0028] A lower rubber sleeve 24 is fixedly fitted to the end of the glass bend 2 inside the water bath 1. A filter cotton block 27 is fixedly inserted into the glass bend 2 inside the lower rubber sleeve 24. A baffle 28 is fixed in the glass bend 2 on the side of the filter cotton block 27. The baffle 28 restricts the depth of the filter cotton block 27 inserted into the glass bend 2. A lower opening 241 is opened on the surface of the lower rubber sleeve 24. At the same time, a filter screen 242 is fixed in the lower opening 241. The water in the water bath 1 will be filtered through the filter screen 242 and the filter cotton block 27 before entering the glass bend 2. Scale and other impurities in the water will not enter the glass bend 2.

[0029] The top of the glass bend 2 is fitted with an upper rubber sleeve 22. A filter cotton sheet 23 is fixed between the inner side of the upper rubber sleeve 22 and the top of the glass bend 2. The surface of the upper rubber sleeve 22 is provided with an upper opening 221. The air pressure inside the glass bend 2 is balanced through the upper opening 221 on the surface of the upper rubber sleeve 22. The filter cotton sheet 23 can prevent dust and other impurities in the air from entering the glass bend 2.

[0030] During use, after water is added to the water bath 1, the water in the water bath 1 will be filtered through the filter screen 242 in the lower opening 241 and pass through the lower rubber sleeve 24. Before entering the glass bend tube 2, it will also be filtered by the filter cotton block 27 to prevent scale and other impurities in the water bath 1 from entering the glass bend tube 2. Due to the principle of communicating vessels, the water level in the glass bend tube 2 is the same as the water level in the water bath 1, and the glass bend tube 2 will cause the float 26 to float. By observing the scale line 21 where the float 26 is located, the water level in the water bath 1 can be easily and quickly read. The glass bend tube 2 is connected to the outside through the upper opening 221 of the upper rubber sleeve 22 to balance the air pressure. The filter cotton sheet 23 can prevent external dust and other impurities from entering the glass bend tube 2. After use, both the upper rubber sleeve 22 and the lower rubber sleeve 24 can be easily removed, so as to facilitate the replacement of the filter cotton sheet 23 and the filter cotton block 27.
