[0030] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, a drain assembly includes a drain jacket 1, a spring-loaded component 3, an upper cutting component 4, a lower cutting component 8, a first mounting sealing ring 14, a second mounting sealing ring 15, and a mounting nut 16. The upper end of the drain jacket 1 has an opening, and the lower end of the drain jacket 1 has a vent. The spring-loaded component 3 is disposed in the drain jacket 1, and the upper end of the spring-loaded component 3 is connected to a spring-loaded pressure plate 2. The spring-loaded pressure plate 2 can be switched between a pressed state and a popped state by pressing the spring-loaded pressure plate 2.

[0031] The lower cutting component 8 is slidably disposed in the lower jacket 1. The lower jacket 1 is provided with a guide sleeve 13 inside, and a guide groove 13-1 is provided on the inner side of the guide sleeve 13. A guide boss 8-3 is provided on the outer side of the lower cutting component 8, and the guide boss 8-3 is disposed in the guide groove 13-1. A spring 9 is provided between the lower cutting component 8 and the bouncing component 3. The upper cutting component 4 is connected to the bouncing pressure plate 2, and the upper cutting component 4 is disposed above the lower cutting component 8. By pressing the bouncing pressure plate 2, the upper cutting component 4 is moved relative to the lower cutting component 8 to achieve the cutting of solid objects.

[0032] The upper end of the drain jacket 1 is provided with a flange 1-4, and the outer side is provided with an external thread 1-1. The mounting nut 16 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the drain jacket 1. The first mounting sealing ring 14 and the second mounting sealing ring 15 are both fitted on the outer side of the drain jacket 1. The first mounting sealing ring 14 and the second mounting sealing ring 15 are both located between the flange 1-4 and the mounting nut 16.

[0033] When the bouncing pressure plate 2 is in the downward state, it is located in the opening at the upper end of the lower jacket 1, blocking the opening. At this time, the bouncing core is in the closed state, and water cannot be discharged through the bouncing core. When the bouncing pressure plate 2 is in the upward state, it moves above the opening, and the bouncing core is in the open state, allowing water to be discharged through the bouncing core.

[0034] In this invention, a lower cutting component 8 and an upper cutting component 4 are provided inside. The upper cutting component 4 is moved by pressing the spring plate 2, thereby realizing the relative movement between the upper cutting component 4 and the lower cutting component 8. If there are solid objects such as hair strands or debris inside the spring core, the upper cutting component 4 and the lower cutting component 8 can cut or chop the solid objects such as hair strands or debris by pressing the spring plate 2. For filamentous solid objects such as hair strands, the cutting action can cut the hair strands into shorter strips, which can promote the discharge of filamentous solid objects such as hair strands and prevent hair strands or debris 12 from getting tangled inside the spring core and causing blockage. For granular solid objects such as debris, the cutting action can also chop the debris into smaller diameter particles, which is also more conducive to the discharge of debris, thereby preventing blockage inside the spring core.

[0035] This invention effectively solves the problem of easy clogging in traditional pop-up drainers, ensuring smooth drainage.

[0036] During installation, the drain cover is installed into the pre-drilled mounting holes on the bathtub or sink. The first and second mounting sealing rings are located at both ends of the mounting holes. By tightening the mounting nuts, the first and second mounting sealing rings are tightly fitted with the bathtub or sink, thereby achieving a sealed installation of the drain.

[0037] In this embodiment, both the first mounting sealing ring 14 and the second mounting sealing ring 15 are made of rubber.

[0038] The lower end of the bouncing component 3 has a first connecting thread 3-3, and the inner surface of the undercarriage 1 has a first threaded hole 1-2. The bottom of the guide sleeve 13 has a through hole 13-2. The lower end of the bouncing component 3 passes through the through hole 13-2 at the bottom of the guide sleeve 13. The lower end of the undercarriage 1 is connected to a fastening nut 10, which secures the bouncing component 3 to the guide sleeve 13. The lower end of the bouncing component 3 is also connected to the threaded hole inside the undercarriage 1. A positioning plate 3-2 is provided on the bouncing component 3, which contacts the bottom of the undercarriage 1 to achieve axial positioning of the bouncing component 3. One end of the spring 9 contacts the positioning plate 3-2.

[0039] Furthermore, the lower cutting member 8 includes a first ring body 4-1 and a first cutting portion 4-2 disposed at the upper end of the first ring body 4-1, and the upper cutting member 4 includes a second ring body 8-1 and a second cutting portion 8-2 disposed at the lower end of the second ring body 8-1; the first cutting portion 4-2 is provided with a cutting surface 4-2a and a cutting blade 8-2a. This utility model also includes a directional rotating sleeve 7, which is connected to the spring-loaded pressure plate 2. The directional rotating sleeve 7 is provided with a groove 7-1, and a protruding pin 3-1 is provided on the outer side of the spring-loaded component 3, the protruding pin 3-1 being connected to the groove 7-1 on the directional rotating sleeve 7.

[0040] The directional rotating sleeve 7, the spring-loaded pressure plate 2, and the upper cutting component 4 are integrated into one unit. The directional rotating sleeve 7 is connected to the spring-loaded pressure plate 2. When the spring-loaded pressure plate 2 moves, it drives the directional rotating sleeve 7 to move synchronously. During the downward pressing process, the spring-loaded pressure plate 2 drives the directional rotating sleeve 7 and the upper cutting component 4 to move downward synchronously. During the downward movement of the directional rotating sleeve 7, due to the cooperation between the protruding pin 3-1 and the inclined groove 7-1, the directional rotating sleeve 7 rotates while moving downward. The directional rotating sleeve 7 drives the upper cutting component 4 to rotate. Therefore, while the upper cutting component 4 moves downward relative to the lower cutting component 8, it also rotates relative to the lower cutting component 8. This causes the cutting blade 8-2a on the first cutting part 4-2 to approach the cutting surface 4-2a on the second cutting part 8-2 at an inclined angle until the cutting blade 8-2a contacts the cutting surface 4-2a, thus cutting or shredding the solid material. This method provides not only vertical shear force but also horizontal shear force, improving the shearing effect, especially for filamentous materials 12 (such as hair). The cutting surface 4-2a is an inclined plane, forming an angle between 70° and 80° with the plane containing the second ring.

[0041] The first ring 4-1 and the second ring 8-1 are provided with perforated grooves. The perforated grooves on the first ring 4-1 and the second ring 8-1 are used to allow water to pass through.

[0042] The inner side of the undercoat 1 is provided with a guide groove 1-4, and the outer side of the lower cutting member 8 is provided with a guide boss 8-3, which is disposed in the guide groove 1-4. The guide groove 1-4 is arranged along the axial direction of the undercoat 1. Through the cooperation between the guide boss 8-3 and the guide groove 1-4, the lower cutting member 8 can move along the direction of the guide groove 1-4, and the rotation of the lower cutting member 8 is restricted.

[0043] The outer casing 1 is equipped with a discharge port.

[0044] The upper end of the bouncing component 3 is provided with a second connecting thread 3-4, and the bouncing pressure plate 2 is provided with a second threaded hole. The upper end of the bouncing component 3 is connected to the second threaded hole on the bouncing pressure plate 2 through the second connecting thread 3-4. A positioning pressure cap 6 is also provided between the bouncing pressure plate 2 and the directional rotating sleeve 7.

[0045] A sealing ring 5 is provided on the outer side of the spring-loaded pressure plate 2. The sealing ring 5 is used to seal and cooperate with the opening at the upper end of the drain jacket 1.

[0046] This utility model is not limited to the above-described preferred embodiments. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the guidance of this utility model. However, regardless of any changes made in their shape or structure, any technical solution that is the same as or similar to this application falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
