Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sewage discharge technology, and in particular to a rapid sewage discharge device for recreational vehicles. Background Technology
[0002] A RV wastewater tank is a device used to collect and store wastewater (such as bath water and handwashing water) used inside the RV. These tanks are typically located under the vehicle or on the side of the cabin, connected to the vehicle's drainage system. The relationship between the wastewater tank and the quick-drainage device is that the device can quickly discharge wastewater at the appropriate time and place, preventing long-term storage and ensuring a clean interior and driving safety. This drainage device is usually designed to be convenient and efficient, allowing owners to easily clean the wastewater tank and keep the RV clean.
[0003] In existing technologies, some recreational vehicle (RV) wastewater tank rapid discharge devices typically achieve rapid wastewater discharge through electrically or manually controlled valves. The working principle is that the liquid level in the wastewater tank is monitored in real time by sensors. When the wastewater reaches a certain level, the control system automatically or through the owner's operation opens the discharge valve. During the discharge process, the device guides the wastewater to an external discharge port through a connecting pipe, thus completing the discharge. To prevent wastewater overflow, rapid discharge devices are generally equipped with overflow protection mechanisms and sealing designs to ensure a safe and efficient discharge process. In summary, wastewater tank rapid discharge devices, through automatic or manually controlled valves combined with a monitoring system, can efficiently and safely discharge wastewater, ensuring the cleanliness and normal function of the RV.
[0004] In existing technologies, many devices employ a single discharge method, such as relying solely on gravity discharge or fixed pipe connections, which cannot meet the needs of different environments. In outdoor campsites lacking sewage pipes, gravity discharge is difficult to achieve rapid emptying; while in locations with special sewage outlet positions, fixed pipes cannot be flexibly connected, resulting in low discharge efficiency or inoperability. Therefore, a rapid discharge device for RV sewage tanks is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

A quick connection mechanism is fixedly connected inside the outlet 8 for connecting to external pipes. A sealing mechanism is fixedly connected to the top of the sewage tank 1, and a handle 17 is slidably connected inside the sewage tank 1.
[0026] The quick-connect mechanism includes a conveying pipe 12, which is slidably connected to the outside of the discharge port 8 and its movement is restricted by spherical limiting blocks 15. Multiple spherical limiting blocks 15 are slidably connected inside the conveying pipe 12, ensuring a stable connection. The adjacent sides of the multiple spherical limiting blocks 15 are in contact with the outside of the discharge port 8. An unlocking block 14 is slidably connected to the outside of the conveying pipe 12 and is located outside the conveying pipe 12. The unlocking block 14 is used to quickly unlock the sewage discharge device when sewage discharge is required. A return spring 16 is fixedly connected to the left side of the inside of the locking block 14. The return spring 16 can quickly return to the initial position after the unlocking block 14 is operated, ensuring that the device can be tightly closed when not in use to prevent sewage leakage. The other end of the return spring 16 is fixedly connected to the right side of the outside of the conveying pipe 12. A leak-proof component is fixedly connected inside the outlet 8. A fixing ring is provided on the outside of the conveying pipe 12. A cavity is opened inside the unlocking block 14. The return spring 16 is fixedly connected in the cavity formed by the cavity and the fixing ring. Multiple spherical grooves are opened inside the conveying pipe 12. The outside of the spherical limiting block 15 is slidably connected to the inside of the spherical groove.
[0027] The leak-proof assembly includes a sealing shaft 9, which is slidably connected inside the outlet 8 and works in conjunction with a thrust spring 10 to ensure sealing during sewage discharge. The outer side of the sealing shaft 9 is slidably connected inside the outlet 8. A thrust spring 10 is fixedly connected to the right side of the sealing shaft 9. The thrust spring 10 helps the sealing shaft 9 maintain appropriate pressure to prevent sewage leakage. A support block 11 is fixedly connected to the other end of the thrust spring 10. The support block 11 is fixed together with the sealing shaft 9 inside the outlet 8, further enhancing the leak-proof effect and ensuring a clean and safe sewage discharge process. The outer side of the support block 11 is fixedly connected inside the outlet 8, which is a U-shaped tubular block. The outer side of the sealing shaft 9 is slidably connected inside the front end of the outlet 8, and the outer side of the support block 11 is fixedly connected inside the rear end of the outlet 8.
[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The sealing mechanism includes two guide blocks 4, which are fixed to the top of the sewage tank 1 to support the movement of the sealing block 5. The bottom of the guide block 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the sewage tank 1. A cleaning port 6 is provided inside the top of the sewage tank 1. The cleaning port 6 is located at the top of the sewage tank 1 and is used for later cleaning and maintenance to ensure the cleanliness of the system during long-term use and to prevent the generation of odors. The sealing block 5 is slidably connected inside the guide block 4. The sealing block 5 is slidably installed inside the guide block 4 and is in close contact with the cleaning port 6 at the top of the sewage tank 1 to ensure that the sewage tank 1 does not leak when discharging sewage. The bottom of the sealing block 5 is in contact with the top of the cleaning port 6.
[0029] An I-shaped sealing ring 3 is rotatably connected to the top of the inside of the sewage tank 1. The I-shaped sealing ring 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the inside of the sewage tank 1 to ensure the sealing effect and prevent sewage from leaking out of the tank. A sewage pipe 2 is fixedly connected inside the I-shaped sealing ring 3. The sewage pipe 2 is connected to the cap by a threaded connection. The cap can be used to seal the sewage outlet to prevent sewage from leaking or overflowing during the discharge process. The other end of the sewage pipe 2 is externally threaded with a cap. A valve 13 is rotatably connected inside the feed inlet 7. The outside of the valve 13 is in contact with the inner wall of the feed inlet 7.
[0030] Working principle: During daily use of the RV, when the external environment allows for direct discharge, sewage enters the interior of the sewage tank 1 through the inlet 7, then flows to the pipe guided by the thrust spring 10, and finally is discharged directly through the pipe. When direct discharge is not possible, the unlocking block 14 is pushed, causing the unlocking block 14 to release the pressure on the spherical limiting block 15 inside the outlet 8, thereby releasing the restriction on the outlet 8 and opening the outlet 8. After releasing the restriction on the sewage tank 1, the unlocking block 14 is released, and the unlocking block 14 is reset by the push of the reset spring 16 inside the unlocking block 14.
[0031] When transporting the sewage box 1, the valve 13 fixed inside the feed inlet 7 and the sealing shaft 9 slidably connected inside the discharge outlet 8 cooperate to seal the sewage box 1, thereby preventing leakage during transportation. The thrust spring 10 fixed on the right side of the sealing shaft 9 and the support block 11 cooperate to ensure the stable sealing of the sealing shaft 9, thereby improving the stability of the device.
[0032] After reaching the sewage discharge position, rotate the sewage pipe 2. With the assistance of the H-shaped sealing ring 3, the sewage pipe 2 rotates. Then, open the cap threaded at one end of the sewage pipe 2, and then discharge the sewage inside the sewage tank 1 through the sewage pipe 2. After that, the sealing block 5, which is fixed to the top of the sewage tank 1 by the guide block 4, can be pushed to slide, thereby opening the cleaning port 6. Cleaning water is then poured into the sewage tank 1 through the cleaning port 6 to clean the inside of the sewage tank 1.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
