Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sink technology, specifically to an integrated drain device. Background Technology

[0002] Current sink drain systems on the market are complex in design and contain a wide variety of parts. Their general structure includes a main body, connecting pipe, drain pipe connector, sludge separator, water seal assembly, and overflow assembly. The main body, as the core, connects the sink to the drainage system; the connecting pipe and drain pipe connector ensure smooth water flow down the drain; the water seal assembly forms a seal by storing water, effectively preventing odors and bacteria from flowing back; and the overflow assembly, connected to the connecting pipe, provides an additional drainage channel when the sink has excessive water, preventing overflow.

[0003] However, in practical applications, these designs have also brought a series of technical problems. First, during the assembly of the drain pipe, due to the large number of parts and complex connections, installation is not only time-consuming, but each connection point also faces quality risks such as leakage and seepage. This is mainly due to the difficulty in ensuring the sealing between connecting parts, as well as errors and wear during installation. Most importantly, the overall size of the entire drain assembly is too large. The total height of a drain with an anti-odor water seal cup is generally between 300 and 350 mm, limiting the storage space under the sink. In modern home design, space utilization is crucial, and the large size of the sink drain undoubtedly reduces the utilization rate of home space, causing inconvenience to users' daily lives.

[0004] In conclusion, current sink drainers on the market have many components, resulting in complex assembly, easy leakage, and excessive size, which are detrimental to improving the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems of complex assembly, easy leakage, and large size of existing drainers due to the large number of parts, and to provide an integrated drainer with a simpler structure.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An integrated drain assembly includes a main body, a water sealing component, and a slag-separating component. The main body has an open inner cavity at the top. The side wall of the inner cavity is provided with an overflow inlet and a drain outlet from top to bottom. An overflow pipe connector is provided on the outer side of the main body corresponding to the overflow inlet, and a drain pipe connector is provided corresponding to the drain outlet. The main body, the overflow pipe connector, and the drain pipe connector are integrally formed. The slag-separating component and the water sealing component are detachably installed in the inner cavity of the main body.

[0008] In this invention, the overflow pipe connector and the drain pipe connector are connected to the overflow pipe and the drain pipe, respectively. Compared with the prior art, this invention reduces the number of accessories by integrally molding the main body, overflow pipe connector, and drain pipe connector, thereby reducing the risk of leakage or seepage caused by loose connections or wear. This significantly improves the sealing performance of the entire drain assembly, effectively ensuring the stability and reliability of the drainage system. Simultaneously, the integrated design consolidates the previously scattered components into a single unit, compressing the overall size of the drain assembly. The height can be controlled to approximately 200mm, freeing up usable space at the bottom of the cabinet, leaving approximately 70% usable space after the drain assembly is installed.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes a water seal cup. The bottom of the main body has a residue discharge outlet, and the water seal cup is detachably assembled to the residue discharge outlet and seals the outlet. In this design, the water seal cup can be periodically disassembled to discharge accumulated residue in the inner cavity, preventing blockage and odor generation inside the drain.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner cavity of the main body is equipped with a baffle that covers the outside of the drain pipe connector. The baffle has an opening at its bottom, creating a blocking space between the inner side of the baffle and the inner cavity of the main body. In this design, due to the baffle's design, water flow is forced to pass through the lower side of the blocking space, not only preventing debris from directly entering the drain pipe and reducing the risk of blockage, but also ensuring smooth water discharge. When water enters the drain, most of the residue is effectively blocked by the slag-separating component, while a small amount of unblocked debris is deposited in the water seal cup under gravity.

[0011] Furthermore, the water seal cup and the residue discharge port are connected by a first quick-connect structure. This first quick-connect structure includes a first fastening part on the side wall of the main body and a second fastening part on the side wall of the water seal cup, which are fastened together. In this design, the quick-connect structure makes the installation and disassembly of the water seal cup more convenient, improving maintenance and cleaning efficiency.

[0012] Furthermore, the water seal cup and the residue discharge port are connected via a threaded structure. This solution provides another reliable connection method between the water seal cup and the main body, increasing the product's applicability and flexibility.

[0013] Furthermore, the slag-separating assembly includes a first slag-separating basket, a supporting step is provided at the upper end of the main body's inner cavity, and a first connecting flange is provided on the outer side of the first slag-separating basket. The first slag-separating basket is connected to the supporting step of the main body's inner cavity through the first connecting flange. In this design, the first slag-separating basket is assembled at the opening of the inner cavity, occupying a small amount of longitudinal space.

[0014] Furthermore, the slag-separating assembly includes a second slag-separating basket, which is fitted inside the main body cavity and extends to the middle of the cavity. In this design, the installation position of the second slag-separating basket is offset from that of the first slag-separating basket, allowing them to be used individually or simultaneously. When used simultaneously with the first slag-separating basket, they provide a dual slag-separating function.

[0015] Furthermore, the water sealing component is mounted on the second slag-separating basket. In this design, the second slag-separating basket and the water sealing component are integrated into one unit, making the second slag-separating basket more versatile in function.

[0016] Furthermore, the water sealing assembly includes a water sealing cap, which abuts against the upper side of the first connecting flange.

[0017] Furthermore, it also includes an overflow mechanism, which includes an overflow device and an overflow pipe, with one end of the overflow pipe connected to the overflow device and the other end connected to the overflow pipe connector.

[0018] Furthermore, it also includes a drain pipe, which is threadedly connected to a drain pipe fitting. Alternatively, the drain pipe and the drain pipe fitting are connected via a second quick-connect structure. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0032] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0033] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "front", "rear", "inner", and "outer" is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0034] See Figure 1-11 As shown, this utility model discloses an integrated drainer 1, including a main body 10, a water sealing component, and a slag-separating component. The main body 10 has an inner cavity with an open upper end. The side wall of the inner cavity is provided with an overflow inlet 11 and a drain outlet 12 from top to bottom. The outer side of the main body 10 is provided with an overflow pipe connector 2 corresponding to the overflow inlet 11 and a drain pipe connector 3 corresponding to the drain outlet 12. The main body 10, the overflow pipe connector 2, and the drain pipe connector 3 are integrally formed. The slag-separating component and the water sealing component are detachably assembled in the inner cavity of the main body 10.

[0035] The drain assembly of this utility model also includes a water seal cup 6. The bottom of the main body 10 is provided with a residue discharge outlet. The water seal cup 6 is detachably assembled at the residue discharge outlet and seals the residue discharge outlet, so that users can clean the residue accumulated in the inner cavity by disassembling it regularly, preventing the drain assembly from becoming clogged and producing odors.

[0036] A fixing ring 16 is fitted around the upper outer periphery of the main body 10. The fixing ring 16 is threadedly connected to the main body 10. The fixing ring 16 has an upper support edge, and a washer 17 and a sealing ring 18 are sequentially placed on the upper support edge.

[0037] Since some residue may not be blocked by the slag-filtering component after water flows into the drain, a baffle 13 is provided in the inner cavity of the main body 10 to prevent residue from entering the drain outlet with the water flow and clogging the drain outlet and drain pipe 31. The baffle 13 covers the outside of the drain pipe joint 3 and has an opening at its bottom. Due to the design of the baffle 13, a blocking space is formed in the inner cavity of the main body 10 outside the drain outlet, forcing the water flow to enter the drain outlet from the lower side of the blocking space. In this way, after the water flows into the drain, most of the residue is effectively blocked by the slag-filtering component, while a small amount of unblocked debris is deposited in the water seal cup 6 under the action of gravity and will not enter the drain outlet.

[0038] To achieve rapid assembly of the water seal cup 6 and the main body 10, the water seal cup 6 and the residue discharge port are connected by a first quick-connect structure. The first quick-connect structure includes a first fastening part on the side wall of the main body 10 and a second fastening part 62 on the side wall of the water seal cup 6. The first fastening part and the second fastening part 62 are fastened together. Specifically, the first fastening part includes a first connecting part 61a arranged laterally and a second connecting part 61b arranged longitudinally. One end of the first connecting part 61a is connected to the lower end of the second connecting part 61b to form an "L" shape. One end of the first connecting part 61a and the second connecting part 61b is provided with an arc-shaped groove. The second fastening part 62 is generally rectangular, and its bottom is provided with a protrusion corresponding to the groove. During assembly, the second fastening part 62 slides along the upper side of the first connecting part 61a, so that the protrusion is fastened at the groove, thereby fastening the first fastening part and the second fastening part 62 together, realizing the assembly of the water seal cup 6.

[0039] Of course, in addition to the above assembly scheme, the water seal cup 6 and the main body 10 can also be connected by a threaded structure 8. Specifically, the water seal cup 6 is provided with an internal thread 81, and the main body 10 is provided with an external thread 82 at the residue discharge outlet, so that the two are connected by threads.

[0040] The aforementioned slag-separating assembly includes a first slag-separating basket 51. A supporting step 14 is provided at the upper end of the inner cavity of the main body 10. A first connecting flange 511 is provided on the outer side of the first slag-separating basket 51. The first slag-separating basket 51 is connected to the supporting step 14 of the inner cavity of the main body 10 via the first connecting flange 511. In this design, the first slag-separating basket 51 is assembled at the opening of the inner cavity, occupying minimal longitudinal space.

[0041] To reduce the space occupied by the first slag-separating basket 51 in the inner cavity of the main body 10, the first slag-separating basket 51 is in the shape of a sunken frustum with a height of 3mm-30mm.

[0042] The aforementioned slag-separating assembly also includes a second slag-separating basket 52. The outer periphery of the second slag-separating basket 52 is provided with a second connecting flange 521. The second slag-separating basket 52 is connected to the support step 14 of the inner cavity of the main body 10 via the second connecting flange 521. The height of the second slag-separating basket 52 is designed to be greater than that of the first slag-separating basket 51. The first slag-separating basket 51 and the second slag-separating basket 52 are stacked vertically. In this design, the installation position of the second slag-separating basket 52 is staggered from that of the first slag-separating basket 51, allowing them to be used individually or simultaneously. When used simultaneously with the first slag-separating basket 51, it provides a dual slag-separating function.

[0043] The aforementioned water sealing component is mounted on the second slag-separating basket 52, thereby making the second slag-separating basket 52 more versatile by integrating the second slag-separating basket 52 with the water sealing component.

[0044] For ease of handling, the second slag-separating basket 52 includes an outer shell 523 and a lifting basket 521. The water-sealing assembly includes a sealing structure 524 disposed between the lifting basket 521 and the outer shell 523. The specific structure can adopt the existing slag-separating basket solution with a lifting basket 521.

[0045] The aforementioned water sealing assembly includes a water sealing cap 4, which abuts against the upper side of the first connecting protrusion 511.

[0046] The outer shell 523 and the main body 10 are integrally formed.

[0047] Furthermore, it also includes an overflow mechanism 7, which includes an overflow device 71 and an overflow pipe 72. One end of the overflow pipe 72 is connected to the overflow device 71, and the other end is connected to the overflow pipe connector 2.

[0048] Furthermore, it also includes a drain pipe 31, which is threadedly connected to a drain pipe connector 3.

[0049] Of course, the drain pipe 31 and the drain pipe connector 3 can also be connected by a second quick-connect structure. The second quick-connect structure includes a third fastening part 32 and a fourth fastening part 33 on the drain pipe 31. The third fastening part 32 and the fourth fastening part 33 are fastened together. The third fastening part 32 includes a third connecting part 32a arranged laterally and a fourth connecting part 32b arranged longitudinally. One end of the third connecting part 32a is connected to the lower end of the fourth connecting part 32b to form an "L" shape. One end of the third connecting part 32a and the fourth connecting part 32b is provided with an arc-shaped groove. The fourth fastening part 33 is rectangular in shape, and its bottom is provided with a protrusion corresponding to the groove. During assembly, the fourth fastening part 33 slides along the upper side of the third connecting part 32a, so that the protrusion is fastened at the groove, thereby making the third fastening part 32 and the fourth fastening part 33 fasten together, realizing the connection with the drain pipe 31.
