Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of condensate collection technology, and in particular to a condensate collection and discharge device for basement water pipes. Background Technology

[0002] The water pipes and central air conditioning ducts in the basement are often in a low-temperature environment. During summer or the rainy season, the temperature difference between the basement and the outside is significant, and the internal moisture is difficult to dissipate effectively, causing condensation to continuously form on the outer walls of the overhead pipes. This accumulated condensation drips randomly, leading to water accumulation on the floor, which is unsightly. Furthermore, it makes the floor slippery, posing a safety hazard and negatively impacting both the usability of the basement and the safety of its inhabitants.

[0003] In the prior art, regarding the condensate collection device below the tee pipe, such as... Figure 1 As shown, a PVC pipe is cut in half to make a first water collection pipe 7 and a second water collection pipe 8. The first water collection pipe 7 is horizontally arranged with the cut facing upward, and the second water collection pipe 8 is vertically arranged with the cut facing upward. The second water collection pipe 8 is inclined and overlapped above the first water collection pipe 7, so that the condensate in the second water collection pipe 8 flows into the first water collection pipe 7.

[0004] However, in this prior art, the first and second water collection pipes are connected by only an overlap, which is easily affected by vibration and impacts from external objects during pipe maintenance. This makes the connection between the first and second water collection pipes prone to displacement, causing condensate from the second water collection pipe to drip onto the ground, thereby reducing the reliability of the condensate collection device. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the issue of water collection pipes being susceptible to interference from external objects, this application provides a condensate collection and discharge device for basement water pipes.

[0006] The technical solution for a basement water pipe condensate collection and discharge device provided in this application is as follows: A basement water pipe condensate collection and discharge device includes a collection tray and three sets of collection pipes. The three sets of collection pipes consist of two upstream collection pipes and one downstream collection pipe. The collection tray is located below a tee pipe and is fixedly connected to the wall via a support structure. Each of the three sets of collection pipes is located below its corresponding pipe and is connected to the collection tray via connectors. The collection tray is used to collect condensate from the two upstream collection pipes and guide the condensate to the downstream collection pipe.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, below the tee pipe, the water collection tray is connected to three sets of water collection pipes respectively through connectors, collecting the condensate in the upstream water collection pipe into the water collection tray and guiding it to the downstream water collection pipe. Compared with the prior art where the water collection pipes are only connected by overlapping, the water collection pipes in this application are connected to the water collection tray through connectors, which avoids the water collection pipes being easily affected by vibration and impacts from external objects during pipe maintenance, thus preventing the water collection pipes from detaching and improving the reliability of the condensate collection device.

[0008] Preferably, all the water collection pipes are inclined, and the bottom of the upstream water collection pipe is higher than the top of the downstream water collection pipe.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the condensate drainage efficiency is improved by utilizing the inclined setting and height difference between the upstream and downstream water collection pipes, thereby enhancing the efficiency of water collection pipe drainage.

[0010] Preferably, a drain outlet is provided at one end of the water collection tray near the bottom, and the drain outlet is located above the downstream water collection pipe, so that the condensate in the water collection tray is discharged through the drain outlet.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the drain outlet is set at one end of the water collection pan near the bottom to facilitate drainage, reduce the accumulation of condensate, reduce the weight of the water collection pan, and thus improve the stability of the water collection pan structure.

[0012] Preferably, the connector includes a support and a rotating bolt. The support is disposed on the water collection tray and is rotatably connected to the water collection pipe through the rotating bolt, so that the water collection pipe can rotate in a vertical plane.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the water collection pipe can be rotated on the support by rotating the bolt, so that the tilt angle of the water collection pipe with respect to the horizontal direction can be flexibly adjusted, thereby improving the flexibility of the water collection pipe adjustment.

[0014] Preferably, a set of connectors is also provided at the replacement position of the water collection tray. The two sets of upstream water collection pipes are a set of upstream water collection pipe A and a set of upstream water collection pipe B. The downstream water collection pipe and the upstream water collection pipe A are arranged opposite to each other along the circumference of the water collection tray. The connector at the replacement position is arranged opposite to the upstream water collection pipe B, so that when the upstream water collection pipe B is connected to the connector at the replacement position, the upstream water collection pipe A and the downstream water collection pipe are reversed.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the positions of the upstream water collection pipe A and the downstream water collection pipe can be swapped using the replacement position of the water collection pan and the connecting parts. At the same time, the upstream water collection pipe B can be installed in the replacement position, so that the condensate collection and discharge device can flexibly switch between two different drainage modes, thereby enhancing the flexibility for different application scenarios.

[0016] Preferably, the water collection tray is provided with an adjusting component, which corresponds one-to-one with the connecting component. The adjusting component includes an adjusting plate and an adjusting bolt. The adjusting component is provided with a snap-fit ​​component, which is respectively disposed on the adjusting bolt. The adjusting plate is fixedly disposed on the water collection tray. The adjusting bolt is threadedly connected to the adjusting plate. The adjusting bolt drives the water collection pipe to rotate around the rotating bolt through the snap-fit ​​component, so as to adjust the tilt angle of the water collection pipe.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the tilt angle of the water collection pipe is adjusted by adjusting bolts before the water collection pan and water collection pipe are installed, and the water collection pipe is fixed by snap-fit ​​parts, so that the tilt angle of the water collection pipe remains fixed during the installation process, without the need to readjust the tilt angle of the water collection pipe again, thus improving the convenience of water collection pipe installation.

[0018] Preferably, the snap-fit ​​component includes a connector and a snap-fit ​​sleeve. The connector is rotatably connected to the adjusting bolt, allowing the connector to rotate in the horizontal plane. The snap-fit ​​sleeve is slidably fitted onto the water collection pipe and rotatably connected to the connector, allowing the connector and the snap-fit ​​sleeve to rotate relative to each other in the vertical plane.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the connection between the connector and the adjusting bolt in the horizontal plane and the connection between the connector and the snap-fit ​​sleeve in the vertical plane are used to make the snap-fit ​​part adaptable to the adjustment of the tilt angle of the water collection pipe and fix the water collection pipe after the adjustment is completed, thereby improving the connection strength between the water collection pipe and the water collection pan.

[0020] Preferably, the support structure is a support rod, one end of which is fixedly connected to the wall and the other end is fixedly connected to the water collection tray. The support rod is used to support the water collection tray.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the water collection tray is fixedly connected to the wall using a support rod, making it less likely for the water collection tray and the water collection pipe to shift, thereby improving the stability of the water collection tray.

[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. Compared with the prior art where water collection pipes are only connected by overlapping, the water collection pipes of this application are connected to the water collection pan by connectors, which avoids the water collection pipes from being detached due to vibration and impact from external objects during pipe maintenance, thus improving the reliability of the condensate collection device.

[0023] 2. By replacing the position of the water collection tray and connecting parts, the positions of pipe A and the downstream water collection pipe can be swapped, and pipe B can be installed in the replacement position at the same time. This allows the condensate collection and discharge device to flexibly switch between two different drainage modes, thereby enhancing its flexibility for different application scenarios.

[0024] 3. The drain outlet is located near the bottom of the water collection tray to facilitate drainage, reduce the accumulation of condensate, reduce the weight of the water collection tray, and thus improve the stability of the water collection tray structure. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 2-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0030] This application discloses a basement water pipe condensate collection and discharge device.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3A condensate collection and discharge device for basement water pipes includes a water collection tray 1 and three sets of water collection pipes 2. The three sets of water collection pipes 2 consist of two sets of upstream water collection pipes 21 and one set of downstream water collection pipes 22. The water collection tray 1 is located below the tee pipe and is fixedly connected to the wall through a support structure 6. The three sets of water collection pipes 2 are all located below the corresponding pipes and are connected to the water collection tray 1 through connectors 3 respectively.

[0032] The water collection tray 1 is used to collect the condensate in the two sets of upstream water collection pipes 21 and guide the condensate to the downstream water collection pipe 22. The three sets of water collection pipes 2 are connected to the water collection tray 1 through the connector 3, which avoids the water collection pipes 2 from being easily affected by vibration and the impact of foreign objects during pipe maintenance, thus preventing the water collection pipes 2 from detaching and improving the reliability of the condensate collection device.

[0033] The water collection tray 1 is a shallow, circular disc-shaped structure with a hollow center and raised edges. It is positioned below the tee pipe and at the intersection of three sets of water collection pipes 2, connected to each pipe via connectors 3. The tray 1 has three installation positions 12 and one replacement position 13, spaced 90° apart. Each replacement position 13 also has a connector 3. The four connectors 3 are evenly spaced at 90° intervals along the circumference of the tray 1 and are detachable. A drain outlet 11, protruding outwards and circular in shape, is located above the top of the downstream water collection pipe 22.

[0034] The connector 3 includes a support 31 and a rotating bolt 32. Each set of supports 31 is set on both sides of one end of the water collection pipe 2. The supports 31 corresponding to the two sets of upstream water collection pipes 21 and the support 31 located at the replacement position 13 are fixedly connected to the top edge of the water collection plate 1. The rotating bolt 32 is simultaneously rotated through the support 31 and the water collection pipe 2, so that the water collection pipe 2 can rotate around the rotating bolt 32 in the vertical plane.

[0035] The water collection pipe 2 is made of PVC pipe evenly split into two halves along the central axis. All three sets of water collection pipes 2 are set at an angle. The bottom of the two sets of upstream water collection pipes 21 is higher than the top of the downstream water collection pipe 22, so that the condensate flows from the higher upstream water collection pipe 21 to the lower downstream water collection pipe 22, thereby improving the discharge efficiency of condensate. The two sets of upstream water collection pipes 21 are divided into a set of pipe A and a set of pipe B. Pipe A and the downstream water collection pipe 22 are set opposite to each other along the circumference of the water collection pan 1. Pipe B and the support 31 at the replacement position 13 are also set opposite to each other along the circumference of the water collection pan 1.

[0036] The water collection tray 1 is equipped with adjusting components 4, which correspond one-to-one with the connecting components 3. Each adjusting component 4 includes an adjusting plate 41 and an adjusting bolt 42. Each adjusting plate 41 is fixedly installed on the outer circumferential wall of the water collection tray 1 and located below the corresponding water collection pipe 2. Each adjusting plate 41 is provided with a thread that matches the adjusting bolt 42 and is threadedly connected to the adjusting bolt 42. The top of the adjusting bolt 42 is provided with a snap-fit ​​component 5.

[0037] The snap-fit ​​component 5 includes a connector 51 and a snap-fit ​​sleeve 52. The connector 51 is fitted onto the adjusting bolt 42 and is rotatably connected to the adjusting bolt 42, allowing the connector 51 to rotate in the horizontal plane. The top end of the snap-fit ​​sleeve 52 is a U-shaped structure adapted to the water collection pipe 2 and is slidably fitted onto the water collection pipe 2, allowing the snap-fit ​​sleeve 52 to slide along the axial direction of the water collection pipe 2. The bottom end of the snap-fit ​​sleeve 52 is hinged to the connector 51 via a hinge shaft. Through the rotatable connection between the connector 51 and the adjusting bolt 42 in the horizontal plane, and the rotatable connection between the connector 51 and the snap-fit ​​sleeve 52 in the vertical plane, the snap-fit ​​component 5 can both adapt to the adjustment of the tilt angle of the water collection pipe 2 and fix the water collection pipe 2 after adjustment, thereby improving the connection strength between the water collection pipe 2 and the water collection tray 1.

[0038] When it is necessary to switch the direction of condensate water flow, first remove all the rotating bolts 32 on the three sets of water collection pipes 2, swap the downstream water collection pipe 22 and its opposite pipe A, and replace pipe B with the connector 3 at the replacement position 13. Repeat the installation and tilt adjustment steps and fix it on the wall to complete the switching of the direction of condensate water flow.

[0039] Three sets of water collection pipes 2 are respectively installed below the corresponding pipes and are fixedly connected to the wall via connecting rods 23. Each water collection pipe 2 is used to collect condensate from the corresponding pipe. The support structure 6 includes support rods 61, which are L-shaped and number four. The four support rods 61 are installed at 90° intervals along the outer circumferential wall of the water collection tray 1. One end of the support rod 61 is fixedly connected to the wall via bolts, and the other end is fixedly connected to the water collection tray 1 via bolts, so that the water collection tray 1 and the water collection pipes 2 are less likely to shift, thereby improving the stability of the water collection tray 1.

[0040] The implementation principle of the condensate collection and discharge device for basement water pipes in this embodiment is as follows: During the installation of the collection and discharge device, the adjusting bolts 42 below the three sets of water collection pipes 2 are rotated to drive the clamping sleeves 52 to rise and fall, causing the water collection pipes 2 to rotate around the rotating bolts 32, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the three sets of water collection pipes 2. This ensures that the bottoms of the two upstream water collection pipes 21 are tilted towards the side closer to the water collection pan 1, and the downstream water collection pipe 22 is tilted away from the water collection pan 1, so that condensate water gathers from the upstream water collection pipes 21 into the water collection pan 1 and is guided to discharge into the downstream water collection pipes 22. After the adjustment is completed, the three sets of water collection pipes 2 are fixed to the wall through the connecting rods 23, and finally the support rods 61 are fixed to the wall to complete the installation of the entire device.

[0041] Compared with the prior art where the water collection pipes 2 are only connected by overlapping, the water collection pipes 2 in this application are connected to the water collection pan 1 by rotating bolts 32, which avoids the water collection pipes from being detached due to vibration and impacts from external objects during pipe maintenance, and improves the reliability of the condensate collection device.

[0042] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
