Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of underground concealed fire hydrant technology, specifically an underground concealed fire hydrant. Background Technology
[0002] Concealed fire hydrants are fire-fighting facilities designed to combine aesthetics and practicality. They ensure rapid and effective use in emergencies without compromising the overall visual appeal of the building or environment.
[0003] Chinese patent disclosure (CN214194777U) discloses an underground concealed fire hydrant for fire fighting. It includes a mounting box with a housing fixedly mounted at the bottom. A motor is fixedly mounted on one side of the housing, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the motor's output end. A first bevel gear is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the rotating shaft, and a second bevel gear meshes with the surface of the first bevel gear. A threaded rod is fixedly mounted on the upper side of the second bevel gear. Support plates are fixedly mounted on both sides of the inner wall of the mounting box. A movable plate is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod, and the fire hydrant body is fixedly mounted on the upper side of the movable plate. A water inlet pipe is provided at the bottom of one side of the fire hydrant body. This invention uses a motor to control the rotation direction of the rotating shaft, which drives the movable plate to rise and fall, thus facilitating the adjustment of the height of the fire hydrant body. When the fire hydrant body is not in use, it can be concealed below ground level, protecting the hydrant body while saving floor space and improving the practicality of the device.
[0004] However, it still has the following drawbacks: rainwater containing electrolytes easily causes fire hydrants to corrode, and in existing technologies, both cover plates are hinged to the inner wall of the mounting box, making it difficult to maintain a tight seal between the two cover plates and between the cover plates and the mounting box, thus negating the purpose of concealing and protecting the fire hydrant. Therefore, we propose an underground concealed fire hydrant to solve this problem. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an underground concealed fire hydrant to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
