Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water tanks, and in particular to a stainless steel water tank. Background Technology

[0002] Stainless steel water tanks are important water storage devices and are widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. They are a new generation of water tank products following fiberglass water tanks. The products are made of SUS304 stainless steel plates through precision molding, and are aesthetically pleasing, economical, practical, and durable.

[0003] A search of Chinese patents revealed publication number CN211712617U, which discloses a novel stainless steel water tank. The tank includes a stainless steel water tank with a water inlet pipe fixedly connected to its upper surface. The water inlet pipe communicates with the interior of the tank. A filter screen is installed inside the water inlet pipe. A round rod is fixedly connected to the side surface of the filter screen, and a ball is fixedly connected to the outer end of the round rod. A rectangular opening is formed on the side surface of the water inlet pipe inside the tank, through which the round rod passes. The size of the round rod matches the size of the rectangular opening. This novel stainless steel water tank, with its filter screen inside the water inlet pipe and a round rod fixedly connected to its side surface with a ball at its outer end, can filter the water in the inlet pipe, thereby removing impurities from the water.

[0004] Existing stainless steel water tanks are inconvenient for checking water levels. Generally, stainless steel water tanks are opaque, making it difficult to see the water level inside from the outside. Checking the water level usually requires opening the tank lid, which is inconvenient and can allow dust and impurities to enter and contaminate the water. Furthermore, opening the lid is difficult because it is typically connected by multiple bolts or threads, requiring tools for installation and removal, increasing workload and reducing efficiency. To address these problems, we propose a new type of stainless steel water tank. Utility Model Content

[0033] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] Example 1:

[0035] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A stainless steel water tank includes a base 1, with a stainless steel water tank 2 bolted to the top of the base 1. The stainless steel water tank 2 is spherical. Two connecting pipes 3 are connected to the surface of the stainless steel water tank 2. The other end of the connecting pipes 3 is connected to a valve 4. The other end of the valve 4 is connected to a fixed pipe 5. A telescopic pipe 6 is slidably sleeved on the inner wall of the fixed pipe 5. A fixed ring 7 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the telescopic pipe 6. A connector 8 is rotatably sleeved on the surface of the fixed ring 7. A glass tube 9 is threaded between the two connectors 8. By using the principle of communicating vessels, water in the stainless steel water tank 2 is introduced into the glass tube 9, making it easy to see the water level in the stainless steel water tank 2. This achieves the purpose of conveniently checking the water level without opening the tank cover 10, making it convenient to use. By loosening the fixed head 18 and the connector 8, the glass tube 9 can be easily disassembled for maintenance, improving its practicality.

[0036] refer to Figure 2 A first sealing ring 15 is provided between the glass tube 9 and the telescopic tube 6, and a second sealing ring 16 is provided between the inner wall of the telescopic tube 6 and the fixed tube 5. By providing the first sealing ring 15 and the second sealing ring 16, water leakage is prevented and the sealing performance is improved.

[0037] refer to Figure 2 The surface of the telescopic tube 6 is provided with a fixing thread 17, and a fixing head 18 is threadedly connected to the surface of the fixing thread 17. By setting the fixing thread 17 and the fixing head 18, the telescopic tube 6 is fixed, thereby improving stability.

[0038] refer to Figure 2The surface of the connector 8 is provided with anti-slip texture 19. By setting the anti-slip texture 19, the hand slips and the operation is facilitated.

[0039] refer to Figure 2 The glass tube 9 is equipped with an indicator float 20, which makes it easy to check the water level.

[0040] refer to Figure 1 The bottom of the stainless steel water tank 2 is connected to a drain valve 25, which facilitates the discharge of sewage.

[0041] Example 2:

[0042] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The stainless steel water tank 2 is topped with a cover 10. Multiple hooks 11 are bolted to the surface of the cover 10. Multiple fixing blocks 12 are bolted to the surface of the stainless steel water tank 2. A pressure plate 13 is rotatably connected to the surface of the fixing block 12. A hanging ring 14 is rotatably connected to the surface of the pressure plate 13, and the hanging ring 14 overlaps with the hooks 11. By moving the pressure plate 13 upward, the hanging ring 14 is disengaged from the hooks 11, thus opening the cover 10. This method facilitates the installation and removal of the cover 10, reduces workload, and improves work efficiency. The fixing rod 22 and the through hole 23 allow for the installation of a safety lock to prevent the water tank from being opened arbitrarily, improving safety and ease of use.

[0043] refer to Figure 1 The surface of the glass tube 9 is printed with scale lines 21, which makes it easy to check the water level.

[0044] refer to Figure 3 A fixing rod 22 is bolted to the surface of the stainless steel water tank 2. The surface of the fixing rod 22 has a through hole 23. By setting the fixing rod 22, a safety lock is added to lock the pressure plate 13, preventing unauthorized personnel from opening it and improving safety.

[0045] refer to Figure 1 The top of the stainless steel water tank 2 is connected to a breather valve 24. By setting the breather valve 24, harmful substances and small animals in the air can be prevented from entering, ensuring that the water quality is not subject to secondary pollution.

[0046] Brief description of the usage process: Utilizing the principle of communicating vessels, water from the stainless steel water tank 2 is introduced into the glass tube 9. The indicator float 20 floats on the water surface. The water level in the stainless steel water tank 2 can be seen through the scale on the glass tube 9, thus facilitating water level monitoring. Loosen the fixing head 18, and then loosen the connecting head 8 to detach the connecting head 8 from the glass tube 9. Remove the glass tube 9 for easy maintenance. Before disassembling the glass tube 9, close the valve 4. Maintenance of the glass tube 9 can be performed without draining the water from the stainless steel tank, further improving maintenance convenience. Move the pressure plate 13. The movement of the pressure plate 13 drives the hanging ring 14 to move. The movement of the hanging ring 14 disengages from the hook 11, opening the tank cover 10. During installation, close the tank cover 10, hang the hanging ring 14 on the hook 11, press the pressure plate 13 tightly, and fix the tank cover 10, thus facilitating the installation and removal of the tank cover 10.

[0047] It should be noted that parts have a lifespan and can be replaced during regular maintenance when they no longer meet performance requirements. Deterioration in performance due to prolonged use of parts is not a design defect of this application.

[0048] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
