[0034] In this utility model, "first" and "second" do not represent a specific quantity or order, but are merely used to distinguish names.
[0035] On the one hand, such as Figure 1 As shown, a sliding floor drain structure in one embodiment of the present invention includes an installation profile 1 and a sliding profile 2 connected to the installation profile 1; the installation profile 1 is provided with a drainage groove 11 with the groove facing the outside, the drainage groove 11 is provided with an upper drainage inlet 111 and a lower drainage slope 112; the sliding profile 2 is provided with a first guide rail 21 for sliding the window sash, and water inlets 22 provided on both sides of the first guide rail 21, the water inlets 22 being connected to the upper drainage inlet 111.
[0036] The above-mentioned sliding floor drain structure is simple and reliable. By setting the upper drainage inlet 111 in the drainage groove 11, it is aesthetically pleasing and prevents dust, debris, or leaves from entering the upper drainage inlet 111 and causing blockage. In addition, it has good drainage performance and can also prevent backflow in strong winds.
[0037] In one embodiment, the sliding profile 2 is connected to the mounting profile 1 via a connecting unit 3. The connecting unit 3 includes at least two supporting vertical flanges 31 disposed at the bottom of the sliding profile 2 and a snap-fit groove 32 disposed on the outdoor side of the sliding profile 2. The mounting profile 1 includes a supporting surface 13 adapted to the bottom end of the two supporting vertical flanges 31 and a snap-fit flange 14 adapted to the snap-fit groove 32. Thus, the sliding profile 2 is installed onto the mounting profile 1 via the connecting unit 3, facilitating subsequent disassembly of the connecting unit 3 for cleaning of the drainage structure. This facilitates maintenance and cleaning and allows for application in diverse scenarios.
[0038] In one embodiment, the sliding profile 2 is provided with a water-blocking flange 23 on the outdoor side, and the outer side of the snap-fit flange 14 and the outer side of the water-blocking flange 23 are on the same plane. Thus, the outer side of the sliding drain structure is flat and aesthetically pleasing, improving the user experience.
[0039] In one embodiment, the support surface 13 is an inclined surface that slopes downwards towards the upper drainage inlet 111. Thus, when rainwater enters the support surface 13 from the inlet 22, it is concentrated at the upper drainage inlet 111 due to gravity and discharged outdoors through the drainage groove 11.
[0040] In one embodiment, the supporting vertical flange 31 includes a first vertical flange disposed on the side away from the upper drain inlet 111, and the bottom end of the first vertical flange is provided with a snap-fit flange 311; the end of the inclined surface away from the upper drain inlet 111, i.e., the highest point, is provided with a snap-fit groove 131, which is adapted to the snap-fit flange 311. Specifically, the snap-fit groove 131 has a top surface that contacts the snap-fit flange 311. In this way, the snap-fit flange 311 snaps into the snap-fit groove 131, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the sliding profile 2 and the mounting profile 1.
[0041] In one embodiment, the first guide rail 21 includes a first rail body 211 and a second rail body 212 arranged side by side; the first rail body 211 and the second rail body 212 are respectively provided with sealing flanges 213 for installing sealing strips on the side facing the interior. In this way, since rainwater usually enters the sliding profile 2 from the outside, the sliding space where the first rail body 211 and the second rail body 212 are located is divided into two spaces by the sealing flanges 213, reducing the possibility of rainwater splashing into the interior.
[0042] In one embodiment, the sliding profile 2 is provided with a snap-fit groove 24, and the first rail body 211 and the second rail body 212 are guide arc strips disposed on the snap-fit groove 24. Specifically, the guide arc strips are stainless steel arc strips.
[0043] In one embodiment, the first track 211 consists of two parallel guide arc strips.
[0044] The special features of the sliding floor drain structure are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
[0045] 1) Concealed Structural Design: The drain holes are hidden within the window frame or floor profile structure, making them invisible from the outside and eliminating the need for additional concealment, thus enhancing the overall aesthetics. This concealed design not only reduces visual interference but also avoids the hygiene problems that traditional floor drains may cause. 2) Highly Efficient Drainage Performance: The drain holes are typically designed vertically downwards, utilizing the force of gravity to generate downward drainage, making drainage smoother and more efficient. The downward sliding design ensures unobstructed water flow, quickly guiding water to the drain outlet and effectively preventing water accumulation and leakage. 3) Anti-Backflow Function: Due to the design position and direction of the drain holes, backflow of rainwater caused by wind blowing directly into the drain holes is avoided. Especially under severe weather conditions, such as strong winds and heavy rain, the six-track downward sliding floor drain maintains stable drainage performance. 4) Easy Maintenance and Cleaning: The concealed design reduces the accumulation of dust and debris, making the floor drain easier to maintain and clean. Some products also feature a removable inner core for convenient regular cleaning, keeping the floor drain clean and hygienic. 5) Diverse application scenarios: Concealed floor drains are not only suitable for bathrooms and kitchens in home renovations, but also widely used in commercial buildings and public facilities. Their aesthetic appeal and practicality make them an indispensable part of modern decoration.
[0046] On the other hand, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a sliding door and window in one embodiment of the present invention includes a sliding floor drain structure 4 and a sliding fan component 5; the sliding fan component 5 includes a window sash assembly 51 slidably disposed on the first guide rail 21.
[0047] In one embodiment, the mounting profile 1 is provided with a second guide rail 15; the sliding fan component 5 further includes a sheer fan assembly 52 slidably mounted on the second guide rail 15. Specifically, the second guide rail 15 is located on the side facing indoors. Thus, the sheer fan assembly 52 facilitates meeting diverse user needs.
[0048] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0049] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
