Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drainage pipe supports, and in particular to a drainage pipe support. Background Technology

[0002] Drainage pipe supports, as devices specifically designed to support and secure drainage pipes, have been widely used in various fields such as building drainage, industrial equipment drainage, and household appliance drainage due to their sufficient structural strength and stability. Taking the washing machine industry as an example, drainage pipe supports cleverly utilize their own elastic characteristics and reliable fixing design to accurately and securely hold the washing machine drain pipe in a predetermined position, effectively preventing the drain pipe from loosening, shaking, or shifting during use. This ensures smooth and unobstructed drainage and avoids problems such as sewage backflow. To meet diverse needs, some drainage pipe supports are designed not only to have a stable fixing function but also to ensure the ease of pipe disassembly. Based on this, open-type drainage pipe supports have emerged and are gradually becoming the mainstream choice in the market. These drainage pipe supports, through their ingenious open design, make the installation and disassembly of drainage pipes easy and quick, greatly improving efficiency.

[0003] However, the inventors discovered through practical application and technical research that since most drainage pipe supports are directly exposed to the external environment, they are subject to the effects of wind, sun, rain, and temperature changes over a long period of time. As a result, their material properties gradually change, making them prone to aging and deformation. In particular, under the continuous weight of the drainage pipe and its internal medium, the fixing and clamping ability of the drainage pipe support itself will decrease significantly. Over time, this decrease in ability will cause the connection between the drainage pipe support and the drainage pipe to loosen, and may even lead to the drainage pipe support opening becoming too large and falling off, thus affecting the normal operation of the drainage pipe. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a drainage pipe support that, while having a stable fixing function and taking into account the convenience of pipe disassembly, can also prevent the connection between the water pipe support and the drainage pipe from loosening, and at the same time reduce the phenomenon of the drainage pipe support opening being too large and causing it to fall off.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts a technical solution as follows: a drainage pipe support is provided, including: a T-shaped base and a connecting seat assembly connected to its bottom, wherein elastic arc-shaped lower buckles are respectively connected to both sides of the T-shaped base, and flexible parts are respectively connected to both sides of the top of the T-shaped base, and elastic arc-shaped upper buckles are respectively connected to the top of the flexible parts.

[0006] It also includes a limiting mechanism, which includes an elastic arc-shaped locking plate connected to the opposite side of the outer surface of the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle. A clearance groove adapted to the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle is formed between the elastic arc-shaped locking plate and the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle. Limiting teeth one are connected at intervals at the opening of the clearance groove. A number of limiting teeth two are connected at intervals on the outer surface of the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle. When the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle is limited to the clearance groove, the limiting teeth one and the limiting teeth two are staggered.

[0007] The elastic arc-shaped upper buckle is connected to arc-shaped limiting plates on both sides.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting seat assembly is used to reliably connect the drain pipe bracket to the external installation carrier, so that the drain pipe bracket can be fixed in the required position, thereby realizing the function of fixing the drain pipe. The elastic arc-shaped lower buckle is used to initially fix the lower part of the drain pipe. The elastic force generated by the elastic deformation tightly clamps the drain pipe, preventing the drain pipe from falling downward or undergoing large displacement during normal use. At the same time, the flexible part has a certain degree of flexibility and deformability, allowing the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle to be adjusted within a certain range, so that the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle and the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle cooperate to completely wrap and fix the drain pipe between them. The elastic arc-shaped upper buckle is embedded in the relief groove, so that the first limiting tooth and the second limiting tooth interlock, thereby preventing the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle from coming out of the relief groove when subjected to external force, further enhancing the fixing effect of the drain pipe bracket on the drain pipe. In addition, the arc-shaped limiting plate can also be used to restrict the horizontal movement of the drain pipe, further enhancing the stability of the drain pipe fixing.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured as follows: an elastic pressing mechanism is connected to the inner side of the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle, the elastic pressing mechanism includes an arc-shaped fitting part, both ends of the arc-shaped fitting part are respectively connected to an integrally formed elastic connecting part, one end of the elastic connecting part is respectively connected to the inner side of the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle, a clearance gap is formed between the inner arc surface of the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle and the outer arc surface of the arc-shaped fitting part, when the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle is limited to the clearance groove, the arc-shaped fitting part is located directly above the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the arc-shaped fitting part conforms to the circular outer contour of the drain pipe, increasing the contact area with the drain pipe. During the fitting process, the elastic connecting part undergoes elastic deformation according to the reaction force of the drain pipe on the arc-shaped fitting part, thereby generating a reverse elastic force, which makes the arc-shaped fitting part press tightly onto the drain pipe. The clearance gap provides space for the elastic deformation of the elastic connecting part, ensuring that the elastic pressing mechanism can work normally. In addition, when the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle is limited to the clearance groove, the arc-shaped fitting part is located directly above the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle, so that the drain pipe is subjected to symmetrical pressure in the vertical direction. The elastic arc-shaped lower buckle supports the drain pipe from below, and the arc-shaped fitting part presses the drain pipe from above. The two work together to further ensure the normal operation of the drainage system.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: the inner side of the arc-shaped fitting portion is provided with a plurality of arc-shaped positioning strips I at intervals, and the inner side of the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle is provided with a plurality of arc-shaped positioning strips II at intervals, wherein the arc-shaped positioning strips I and the arc-shaped positioning strips II are respectively staggered.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the arc-shaped fitting part contacts the outer surface of the drain pipe through the arc-shaped positioning strip one. Compared with the smooth arc surface, the arc-shaped positioning strip one increases the contact points with the drain pipe, which can fit more tightly with the surface of the drain pipe and increase the friction, thereby more effectively preventing the drain pipe from sliding or rotating in the horizontal direction. The elastic arc-shaped lower buckle supports the drain pipe from below through the arc-shaped positioning strip two, providing a stable bottom support point for the drain pipe. At the same time, the arc-shaped positioning strip two can also play a certain positioning role for the drain pipe, preventing the drain pipe from falling down or shifting during installation or use. In addition, the arc-shaped positioning strip one and the arc-shaped positioning strip two are staggered, so that the arc-shaped positioning strip one and the arc-shaped positioning strip two form a cross-fixing network in the circumferential direction of the drain pipe, which restricts and fixes the drain pipe from multiple angles.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: the connecting seat assembly includes a mountain-shaped elastic connecting block, and a plurality of inclined guide limiting blocks are connected at intervals on both sides of the mountain-shaped elastic connecting block, with the higher end of the guide limiting block being located close to the T-shaped base.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the mountain-shaped elastic connecting block is connected to the T-shaped base and the external carrier, ensuring that the entire drainage pipe rack forms a stable whole after installation. The two sides of the mountain shape also have a certain degree of elasticity, which can absorb and buffer these external forces through its own elastic deformation, reducing the direct impact of external forces on the T-shaped base and the entire drainage pipe rack, and protecting the structural integrity of the drainage pipe rack. When the drainage pipe rack is installed on the external mounting carrier, the guide limiting block can guide the connecting seat assembly to accurately enter the installation position, making the installation process smoother and faster, reducing installation time and difficulty. At the same time, when the drainage pipe rack is subjected to external forces, the guide limiting block can also play a certain blocking role to prevent the drainage pipe rack from falling off the mounting carrier.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that the bottom ends of both sides of the mountain-shaped elastic connecting block are rounded.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the drainage pipe rack is installed onto the external carrier through the connecting seat assembly, the rounded corner design at the bottom of both sides of the mountain-shaped elastic connecting block can make a smoother contact between the connecting block and the installation surface. The rounded corner can avoid the connecting block from generating large friction and jamming phenomena with the installation surface during the installation process.

[0017] In summary, this utility model includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects of a drainage pipe support:

[0018] 1. The elastic arc-shaped lower buckle is used to initially fix the lower part of the drain pipe. The elastic force generated by the elastic deformation tightly clamps the drain pipe, preventing it from falling downward or undergoing large displacement during normal use. At the same time, the flexible part allows the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle to cooperate with the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle, completely wrapping and fixing the drain pipe between the two. Moreover, the first and second limiting teeth are interlocked to prevent the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle from coming out of the relief groove when subjected to external force, further enhancing the fixing effect of the drain pipe bracket on the drain pipe.

[0026] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0027] It should be noted that these figures are simplified schematic diagrams, which only illustrate the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner, and therefore only show the components related to the present invention.

[0028] Reference Figure 1-2 This utility model discloses a drainage pipe support, comprising: a T-shaped base 1 and a connecting seat assembly 20 connected to its bottom; elastic arc-shaped lower buckles 3 are connected to both sides of the T-shaped base 1; flexible parts 4 are connected to both sides of the top of the T-shaped base 1; elastic arc-shaped upper buckles 5 are connected to the top of the flexible parts 4; and a limiting mechanism 60 is also included. The limiting mechanism 60 includes an elastic arc-shaped locking plate 61 connected to one side of the outer surface of the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle 3; a clearance groove 62 adapted to the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle 3 is formed between the elastic arc-shaped locking plate 61 and the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle 3; a limiting tooth 63 is connected at intervals at the opening of the clearance groove 62; a plurality of limiting teeth 64 are connected at intervals on the outer surface of the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5; when the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 is limited to the clearance groove 62, the limiting teeth 63 and the limiting teeth 64 are staggered; and arc-shaped limiting plates 7 are connected to both sides of the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5.

[0029] The T-shaped base 1 and the connecting seat assembly 20 provide an installation foundation for other components, fixing the drain pipe bracket to an external mounting carrier, such as the washing machine body, ensuring the drain pipe bracket maintains a stable position during use. When installing the drain pipe, the drain pipe engages with the elastic arc-shaped lower clip 3. The elastic arc-shaped lower clip 3 deforms elastically while providing a certain pre-tightening force to prevent the drain pipe from easily falling off. It also adapts to changes in drain pipe diameter, improving the adaptability of the drain pipe bracket. Furthermore, through the flexibility and elasticity of the flexible part 4, it guides the elastic arc-shaped upper clip 5 towards the relief groove 62, allowing the elastic arc-shaped upper clip 5 to move smoothly and steadily. The opening and closing action is performed simultaneously. The elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 and the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle 3 cooperate to form a closed and fixed space, effectively clamping and limiting the drain pipe, and effectively preventing the drain pipe from shaking, shifting or falling off during use. In addition, when the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 is inserted into the relief groove 62, the limiting tooth 1 63 and the limiting tooth 2 64 are staggered to interlock with each other, preventing the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 from sliding out of the relief groove 62 when subjected to external force. Under the action of the arc-shaped limiting plate 7, the drain pipe is further restricted and fixed from both sides to prevent the drain pipe from sliding in the horizontal direction.

[0030] An elastic pressing mechanism 80 is connected to the inner side of the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5. The elastic pressing mechanism 80 includes an arc-shaped fitting part 81. Both ends of the arc-shaped fitting part 81 are respectively connected to an integrally formed elastic connecting part 82. One end of the elastic connecting part 82 is respectively connected to the inner side of the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5. A clearance gap is formed between the inner arc surface of the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 and the outer arc surface of the arc-shaped fitting part 81. When the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 is limited to the clearance groove 62, the arc-shaped fitting part 81 is located directly above the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle 3.

[0031] When the drain pipe is installed onto the drain pipe rack, the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 moves into the relief groove 62, and the elastic pressing mechanism 80 also moves closer to the drain pipe. Due to its arc-shaped design, the arc-shaped fitting part 81 can fit against the surface of the drain pipe and undergo slight deformation, so that the arc-shaped fitting part 81 first contacts the surface of the drain pipe and applies a certain pre-pressure to achieve the initial fixation of the drain pipe. At the same time, the elastic connecting part 82 can automatically adjust the position and pressure of the arc-shaped fitting part 81 according to the diameter of the drain pipe to ensure that the arc-shaped fitting part 81 can fit tightly against the surface of the drain pipe, which improves the versatility and adaptability of the drain pipe rack, and plays a buffering and shock-absorbing role during use, reducing the shaking, displacement or falling off of the drain pipe due to water flow impact, equipment vibration or other reasons during use.

[0032] The inner side of the arc-shaped fitting part 81 is provided with several arc-shaped positioning strips 9 at intervals, and the inner side of the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle 3 is provided with several arc-shaped positioning strips 11 at intervals. The arc-shaped positioning strips 9 and 11 are arranged alternately.

[0033] When the drain pipe is placed on the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle 3, the arc-shaped positioning strip 2 11 can first perform preliminary radial positioning of the drain pipe, especially for corrugated pipes, so that it is roughly in the correct installation position. As the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 snaps down, the arc-shaped positioning strip 1 9 further contacts the drain pipe and cooperates with the arc-shaped positioning strip 2 11 to guide the drain pipe accurately into the predetermined installation position. This ensures that the drain pipe can be smoothly and accurately installed into the fixed space of the drain pipe rack, reducing installation errors and the number of repeated adjustments. Furthermore, the staggered arrangement of the arc-shaped positioning strip 1 9 and the arc-shaped positioning strip 2 11 forms a cross-fixing structure in the circumferential direction of the drain pipe, restricting and fixing the drain pipe from multiple angles.

[0034] The connecting seat assembly 20 includes a mountain-shaped elastic connecting block 21. Several inclined guide limiting blocks 22 are connected to the two sides of the mountain-shaped elastic connecting block 21 at intervals. The higher end of the guide limiting block 22 is located close to the T-shaped base 1. The bottom ends of the two sides of the mountain-shaped elastic connecting block 21 are rounded.

[0035] The mountain-shaped elastic connecting block 21 provides multiple contact surfaces and connection points, increasing the contact area with the external structure, thereby enhancing the stability and firmness of the connection. For example, when connecting with the washing machine body, the mountain-shaped elastic connecting block 21 can be embedded in the corresponding groove or slot of the body to achieve precise positioning and stable connection. During installation, the guide limiting block 22 guides the mountain-shaped elastic connecting block 21 to accurately enter the mounting groove or the mounting component. When the drain pipe bracket is subjected to external force, the guide limiting block 22 can also play a certain blocking role to prevent the drain pipe bracket from falling off the mounting carrier.

[0036] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: During use, the drain pipe to be installed is snapped into the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle 3. The elastic arc-shaped lower buckle 3 provides a certain pre-tightening force while deforming elastically to prevent the drain pipe from easily falling off. The drain pipe is initially radially positioned by the arc-shaped positioning strip 11, especially for corrugated pipes. Then, under the elastic action of the flexible part 4, the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 moves towards the relief groove 62, so that the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 cooperates with the elastic arc-shaped lower buckle 3. When the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 is snapped into the relief groove 62, the limiting teeth 1 63 and 2 64 are staggered to interlock with each other, preventing the elastic arc-shaped upper buckle 5 from sliding out of the relief groove 62 when subjected to external force. Under the action of the arc-shaped limiting plate 7, the drain pipe is further restricted and fixed from both sides to prevent the drain pipe from sliding in the horizontal direction.

[0037] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this utility model specification, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
