[0040] Example
[0041] Please refer to Figures 1-6 As shown, this embodiment provides a quick-release drainage structure. Please refer to... Figure 6 As shown, this is applied to a double-walled washing tub, which includes an outer tub 3 and an inner tub 4. The inner tub 4 is embedded inside the outer tub 3. A drive block 5 is connected to the bottom of the outer tub 3, and the drive block 5 is driven by an external drive device. An installation channel 51 is provided on the drive block 5, and a water outlet pipe 41 is provided at the bottom of the inner tub 4. The water outlet pipe 41 passes through the outer tub 3 and connects to the installation channel 51.
[0042] Specifically, the quick-release drainage structure includes a core 1, which is embedded in the installation channel 51. A drainage channel 15 is provided on the core 1, and the drainage channel 15 is connected to the water outlet pipe 41.
[0043] The core 1 is installed in the installation channel 51 by embedding. The inner tube 4 is located above and limits the core 1 to ensure that the core 1 is stably in the drainage position. When the inner tube 4 is removed, the core 1 is in a detachable state and can be directly taken out for cleaning or replacement, which effectively reduces the complexity of the connection structure between the core 1 and the washing device and reduces the difficulty of assembly and cleaning.
[0044] Please refer to Figures 3-6 As shown, a constant pressure drain valve 2 is provided in the drain channel 15. An external control device controls the opening and closing of the constant pressure drain valve 2 to control the washing device to drain and store water. The constant pressure drain valve 2 includes a valve body 21, a valve core 22, and a reset member 23. The top of the valve body 21 has an upper drain port 211, and the bottom of the valve body 21 has a guide channel 213 and a lower drain port 212. The upper drain port 211 and the guide channel 213 are located in the same extension direction. The valve core 22 includes a valve head 221 and a valve stem 222. The valve head 221 and the valve stem 222 are located in the internal cavity 214 of the valve body 21. The top end of the valve stem 222 is connected to the valve head 221, and the bottom end of the valve stem 222 passes through the guide channel 213 and extends outward. The reset member 23 is arranged around the circumference of the valve stem 222. The top and bottom ends of the reset member 23 abut against the valve head 221 and the valve body 21, respectively. The reset member 23 pushes the valve head 221 to abut against the upper drain port 211. In this embodiment, the reset member 23 is a spring, but it can also be other elastic structures.
[0045] In this embodiment, the external control device is a drain pump. The drain pump uses negative pressure to pull the valve core 22 downward, compressing the reset member 23 and opening the upper drain port 211 to drain water. After the pump stops working, the reset member 23 drives the valve head 221 upward to abut against the lower opening of the upper drain port 211, sealing the upper opening and stopping the drainage. No connection to the valve body 21 is required during the control process, resulting in high drainage efficiency. By adapting springs of different specifications, the water pressure that the constant pressure drain valve can withstand can be flexibly adjusted. When drainage is needed, only a small suction force needs to be applied by the external control device to achieve drainage.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, furthermore, the top of the valve head 221 is provided with a lower contact surface 2211, which slopes outward from the inner side of the top surface of the valve head 221 to the outer side of the lower part of the valve head 221. An upper contact surface 2111 is provided at the lower opening of the upper drain port 211. The upper contact surface 2111 is inclined and has the same inclination angle as the lower contact surface 2211. The inclined lower contact surface 2211 and upper contact surface 2111 effectively increase the contact area between the valve head 221 and the upper drain port 211, improve the sealing effect of the upper drain port 211, prevent water leakage during water storage, and improve the cleaning effect of the washing equipment.
[0047] Furthermore, there are multiple drain outlets 212, which are arranged around the periphery of the guide channel 213. In this embodiment, there are four drain outlets 212, which are spaced apart around the periphery of the guide channel 213, improving the drainage efficiency of the valve body 21 while ensuring good structural strength. Similarly, more or fewer drain outlets 212 can be provided. In this embodiment, the upper end of the drain outlet 212 extends to the upper part of the valve body 21, increasing the opening size of the drain outlet 212 and further improving the drainage efficiency of the valve body 21.
[0048] In this embodiment, a limiting protrusion ring 152 is provided at the lower part of the drainage channel 15, and the constant pressure drainage valve 2 is embedded in the drainage channel 15, with the bottom surface of the constant pressure drainage valve 2 abutting against the top surface of the limiting protrusion ring 152. The limiting protrusion ring 152 supports the constant pressure drainage valve 2, ensuring the stability of the constant pressure drainage valve 2 during the air extraction process of the drainage pump. At the same time, the constant pressure drainage valve 2 is also connected to the core 1 by an embedded method, without the need for other connecting structures, further reducing the assembly and cleaning difficulty of the internal structure of the quick-release drainage structure.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, an inner sealing ring 12 is provided at the upper part of the drainage channel 15, and an external water outlet pipe 41 is inserted into the drainage channel 15. The inner sealing ring 12 surrounds the periphery of the water outlet pipe 41. The inner sealing ring 12 seals the periphery of the water outlet pipe 41, effectively preventing backflow of water and affecting the normal operation of external equipment. Furthermore, an inner sealing groove 151 is provided at the upper part of the drainage channel 15, and the inner sealing ring 12 is embedded in the inner sealing groove 151. The inner sealing groove 151 limits the inner sealing ring 12, ensuring the stability of the inner sealing ring 12 during use. At the same time, the inner sealing ring 12 only needs to be limited by the groove body, and no additional connecting structure is required to connect the inner sealing ring 12. While ensuring the reliability of the installation of the inner sealing ring 12, it saves costs and realizes quick disassembly and assembly between the inner sealing ring 12 and the core 1, further reducing the cleaning difficulty of the quick-disassembly drainage structure.
[0050] Please refer to Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the inner sealing ring 12 includes an inner body 121. A first sealing arm 122 and a second sealing arm 123 are provided at both ends of the bottom of the inner body 121. The first sealing arm 122 and the second sealing arm 123 are arranged in a figure-eight shape. The bottom end of the first sealing arm 122 abuts against the top of the inner sealing groove 151, and the bottom end of the second sealing arm 123 abuts against the top of the side wall of the water outlet pipe 41. The first sealing arm 122 is inclined towards the groove structure of the inner sealing groove 151. In the assembled state, the first sealing arm 122 applies a force to the inner body 121 and the second sealing arm 123 towards the water outlet pipe 41, ensuring tight contact between the second sealing arm 123 and the water outlet pipe 41 and improving the internal sealing effect. The bottom end of the second sealing arm 123 is inclined towards the water outlet pipe 41, effectively increasing the contact area between the second sealing arm 123 and the water outlet pipe in the assembled state, further improving the internal sealing effect.
[0051] Please refer to Figures 1-3 As shown, the quick-release drainage structure further includes an outer sealing ring 11, which is interference-fitted between the outer side of the core 1 and the inner wall of the mounting channel 51. The outer sealing ring 11 provides a limiting force for the core 1 within the mounting channel 51, ensuring the stability of the core 1 during drainage. Simultaneously, the outer sealing ring 11 ensures airtightness below the core 1, improving the accuracy of drainage and water storage control. Specifically, an outer sealing groove 14 is formed on the outer side of the core 1, and the outer sealing ring 11 is embedded within it, with its end protruding from the opening of the outer sealing groove 14. The outer sealing groove 14 limits the outer sealing ring 11, eliminating the need for additional connecting structures. This saves costs while ensuring reliable installation of the outer sealing ring 11, and simultaneously enables quick disassembly and assembly between the outer sealing ring 11 and the core 1, further reducing the cleaning difficulty of the quick-release drainage structure. The end of the outer sealing ring 11 protrudes from the groove of the outer sealing groove 14. In the assembled state, the outer sealing ring 11 provides a limiting force to the core 1 to ensure the stability of the core 1, while ensuring the airtightness between the upper and lower parts of the core 1, thereby improving the pumping effect of the external drainage pump on the valve core 22.
[0052] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a filter screen 13 is provided in the drainage channel 15. The filter screen 13 is located above the upper drain outlet 211. The filter screen 13 filters the discharged wastewater to prevent impurities from affecting the operation of the constant pressure drain valve 2 and the external drain pump.
[0053] This embodiment also discloses a washing device that uses the above-described quick-release drainage structure.
[0054] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
