Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drain cleaning machines, and in particular to a guide device for guiding the flexible shaft of a drain cleaning machine into the water trap of a drain pipe, so as to guide the flexible shaft of the drain cleaning machine smoothly into the water trap of the drain pipe. Background Technology
[0002] A drain cleaning machine is a tool used for unclogging pipes and is widely used in daily life and industrial production. As we all know, drain pipes are usually equipped with water traps, which means that during operation, the flexible shaft of the drain cleaning machine often needs to enter the water trap. This makes it difficult for the flexible shaft to enter the pipe directly, especially since some water traps have inspection ports at the bottom, which can block the front end of the flexible shaft, making it even more inconvenient for the shaft to enter the pipe. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings in the existing technology and to provide a guide device for guiding the flexible shaft of a drain cleaning machine into the water trap of a drain pipe. The device is simple in structure, reasonable in design, easy to use, and facilitates the smooth entry of the flexible shaft of the drain cleaning machine into the water trap of the drain pipe.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above problems is as follows: The structural features of the guide device for guiding the flexible shaft of the drain cleaner into the water trap of the drain pipe are: it includes a guide tube, a guide head and a flexible shaft inlet. The guide tube is a vertical structure. The flexible shaft inlet is fixed at the upper end of the guide tube. The guide head includes an elbow and a connector. The inlet of the elbow and the connector are fixed. The connector is fixed at the lower end of the guide tube. The elbow is an arc-shaped structure with an angle of 90°.
[0005] Preferably, the conduit described in this invention is a telescopic tube structure.
[0006] Preferably, the outlet of the elbow described in this utility model has a sloped structure.
[0007] Preferably, the flexible shaft inlet of this invention is snapped and fixed at the upper end of the conduit.
[0008] Preferably, the connector of this invention is snapped and fixed at the lower end of the conduit.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages and effects: reasonable structural design, simple operation, and good performance. The guide head can easily guide the flexible shaft of the drain cleaner into the water trap of the drain pipe, making it easy for the flexible shaft to enter the water trap, greatly reducing the difficulty of the flexible shaft entering the water trap of the drain pipe, facilitating the use of the drain cleaner, and improving the efficiency of the drain cleaner in clearing drain pipes.

[0018] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through embodiments. The following embodiments are explanations of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0019] Example
[0020] See Figures 1 to 6 In this embodiment, the guide device 12 for guiding the flexible shaft of the drain cleaning machine into the water trap of the drain pipe includes a guide tube 1, a guide head 2, and a flexible shaft inlet 3, wherein the guide tube 1 is a telescopic tube structure.
[0021] In this embodiment, the conduit 1 has a vertical structure, and the flexible shaft inlet 3 is fixed at the upper end of the conduit 1.
[0022] In this embodiment, the guide head 2 includes an elbow 4 and a connector 5. The inlet of the elbow 4 and the connector 5 are fixed, and the outlet 6 of the elbow 4 is a beveled structure with the beveled structure facing upwards. The connector 5 is fixed to the lower end of the conduit 1, and the elbow 4 is an arc-shaped structure with an angle of 90°.
[0023] Normally, the flexible shaft inlet 3 is snapped and fixed to the upper end of the conduit 1. To enhance the fixation, glue can be used to reinforce the two. The connector 5 is snapped and fixed to the lower end of the conduit 1. To enhance the fixation, glue can be used to reinforce the two.
[0024] In this embodiment, the guide device 12 is used to conveniently and smoothly guide the flexible shaft 11 of the drain cleaner into the trap 13 of the drain pipe, making it easier for the drain cleaner to unclog the drain pipe and simplifying its operation. In use, the flexible shaft 11 of the drain cleaner is installed on the drain cleaner body 14. First, the guide device 12 is inserted into the trap 13 of the drain pipe that needs to be unclogged, and the outlet 6 of the guide head 2 in the guide device 12 is aligned with the orientation of the trap 13. A gap is left between the bottom of the guide device 12 and the bottom inner wall of the trap 13. After the drain cleaner body 14 sends the flexible shaft 11 into the guide device 12, the flexible shaft 11 is continued to be slowly fed into the guide device 12. Due to the guiding effect of the guide head 2 in the guide device 12, the flexible shaft 11 will advance along the guide head 2 and turn at the bend of the trap 13, so that the flexible shaft 11 can pass smoothly through the trap 13. Furthermore, the bottom of the trap 13 is usually provided with an inspection port that is not arc-shaped. Without the guidance of the guide device 12, when the front end of the flexible shaft 11 moves to the bottom of the trap 13, it will advance along the inner wall of the bottom of the trap 13. Since the inspection port at the bottom of the trap 13 is not arc-shaped, it will block the front end of the flexible shaft 11, preventing it from advancing smoothly. In this embodiment, under the guidance of the guide head 2, the front end of the flexible shaft 11 moves along the guide head 2. After the front end of the flexible shaft 11 extends out of the guide head 2, it has just avoided the inspection port of the trap 13. The front end of the flexible shaft 11 can then continue to advance smoothly along the arc-shaped inner wall of the trap 13. This effectively solves the problem that the inspection port of the trap 13 blocks the front end of the flexible shaft 11 during the unblocking process, preventing the front end of the flexible shaft 11 from advancing smoothly, making the unblocking work smoother.
[0025] Furthermore, it should be noted that the specific embodiments described in this specification may differ in the shape and name of their components. The above description is merely illustrative of the structure of this utility model. All equivalent or simple variations made based on the structure, features, and principles described in this utility model patent concept are included within the protection scope of this utility model patent. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to replace them, as long as they do not deviate from the structure of this utility model or exceed the scope defined in these claims, all of which should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
