[0004] A drainer includes a housing, a slag discharge valve, a control module, and a sensor for sensing feet; the housing has a cavity and an inlet, a outlet, and a slag discharge port communicating with the cavity, and the bottom of the cavity has a slag collection area; the sensor is rotatably mounted on the housing; the control module receives signals from the sensor and controls the opening and closing of the slag discharge valve; the slag discharge valve is located outside the housing and connected to the slag discharge port, discharging impurities in the slag collection area through the slag discharge port.

[0005] Furthermore, a mounting groove is provided on the side wall of the housing, and the sensor is installed in the mounting groove. The sensor includes a rotating part, and the sensor is rotatably disposed in the mounting groove relative to the housing through the rotating part.

[0006] Furthermore, the sensor includes a base, a rotating component, and a sensor. The base is installed in the mounting groove and has an outward-facing receiving groove. The rotating component is rotatably installed in the receiving groove, and the sensor is installed on the rotating component with its sensing probe facing outward.

[0007] Furthermore, the receiving groove has at least a spherical groove at the top and bottom, and the rotating member has a spherical convex surface adapted to the spherical groove, with the spherical groove and the spherical convex surface transitionally fitted.

[0008] Furthermore, the downward-curving limiting portion at the front end of the spherical groove restricts the outward movement of the rotating component.

[0009] Furthermore, the sensor includes a base, a rotating shaft, and a sensor. The base is installed in the mounting groove, and the rotating shaft is rotatably installed on the base and can rotate up and down along the housing. A mounting part is provided on the rotating shaft, and the sensor is installed on the mounting part.

[0010] Furthermore, the base body has rotating holes on both sides for inserting the rotating shaft. The rotating holes are fitted with sleeves, and the sleeves have through holes for inserting the rotating shaft. The through holes allow the rotating shaft to be inserted and deformed to clamp the rotating shaft.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a filter screen located inside the cavity, which divides the cavity into a sludge collection area and a water storage area. The height of the sludge collection area inside the cavity is lower than the height of the drain outlet inside the cavity.

[0012] Furthermore, the slag collection area is a slag collection trough, the bottom of the slag collection trough forms an inclined slope, and the slag discharge port is located at the lower end of the slag collection trough.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present utility model and not for limiting it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts related to the present utility model are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0027] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0028] like Figures 2-4As shown, this embodiment discloses a drainer, including a housing 1, a slag discharge valve 4, a control module, and a sensor 5 for sensing the feet. The control module is connected to the slag discharge valve 4 and the sensor 5 respectively, and controls the slag discharge valve 4 to discharge slag from the drainer through the information fed back by the sensor 5.

[0029] The shell 1 has a cavity 2 and an inlet 11, an outlet 12, and a slag discharge outlet 13 communicating with the cavity 2. The bottom of the cavity 2 has a slag collection area 22. Specifically, the cavity 2 can be divided into a water storage area 21 and a slag collection area 22 by a filter screen 23. The filter screen 23 can be set vertically or horizontally in the cavity 2. When the filter screen 23 is set vertically in the cavity 2, the side of the cavity 2 near the inlet 11 forms the slag collection area 22, and the other side forms the water storage area 21. If the filter screen 23 is set horizontally in the cavity 2, the bottom of the cavity 2 forms the slag collection area 22, and the water storage area 21 is located above the slag collection area 22. Impurities are isolated in the slag collection area 22 by the filter screen 23. Specifically, the slag collection area 22 is a slag collection trough, and the bottom of the slag collection trough forms an inclined slope 221. The slag discharge outlet 13 is located at the lower end of the slag collection trough so that most of the impurities in the slag collection trough can be discharged smoothly. By setting up filter screen 23, most impurities can be filtered into the slag collection area 22.

[0030] A drainage mechanism 3 is also provided inside the cavity 2. The drainage mechanism 3 can be a conventional float-type or pneumatic drainage mechanism 3 to discharge the condensate in the drainer. The height of the drain outlet 12 is higher than the height of the slag collection area 22, so that impurities in the slag collection area 22 cannot enter the drain outlet 12 and block the drainage channel. The drainage mechanism 3 is used to open and close the drain outlet 12. When the drainer does not need to drain, the sealing part of the drainage mechanism 3 blocks the drain outlet 12. When the drainage mechanism 3 needs to drain, the sealing part of the drainage mechanism 3 is displaced relative to the drain outlet 12, so that the drain outlet 12 is opened. The drainer body is only a carrier of this utility model. It can be a conventional drainer such as float-type, float-type, pneumatic type, bucket type, electronic timing type, etc.; for example, application numbers CN202322686345.4, CN202421965494.2, etc.

[0031] Sensor 5 is rotatably mounted on housing 1, specifically on the side wall of housing 1. Sensor 5 can rotate to adjust its sensing position as needed. The control module receives signals from sensor 5 and controls the opening and closing of the slag discharge valve 4. When sensor 5 detects a person's foot, it transmits a signal to the control module, which then controls the slag discharge valve 4 to open and discharge slag. The slag discharge valve 4 is located outside housing 1 and connected to slag discharge port 13, draining impurities from the slag collection area 22 through slag discharge port 13. Sensor 5 can detect, but is not limited to, human feet, due to its low position. It typically detects only the feet. However, it can also trigger detection if other parts of the body, such as the hands, are in the sensing area.

[0032] The side wall of the housing 1 is provided with a mounting groove 14 for mounting the sensor 5, and the sensor 5 is rotatably mounted in the mounting groove 14. Specifically, the sensor 5 includes a rotating part, and the sensor 5 is rotatably mounted in the mounting groove 14 relative to the housing 1 by means of the rotating part, and the sensing position is adjusted by rotating the rotating part.

[0033] Example 1: As Figure 3 As shown, the sensor 5 includes a base 51, a rotating member 52, and a sensor 53. The base 51 is installed in the mounting groove 14 and has an outward-facing receiving groove 511. The rotating member 52 is rotatably installed in the receiving groove 511, and the sensor 53 is installed on the rotating member 52 with its sensing probe facing outward. The rotating member 52 forms the aforementioned rotating part. The receiving groove 511 has at least a spherical groove at its top and bottom. The rotating member 52 has a spherical convex surface 522 that adapts to the spherical groove 512. The spherical groove 512 and the spherical convex surface 522 are transitionally fitted, allowing the spherical groove 512 to clamp the spherical convex surface 522 to a certain extent. In other embodiments, the receiving groove 511 can be an entire spherical groove 512, and the rotating member 52 can have a spherical groove 512 on at least opposite surfaces, or the rotating member 52 can be entirely spherical. The rotating component 52 is provided with a mounting part for mounting the sensor 53. The mounting part is a first mounting part 521; specifically, the first mounting part 521 can be a mounting hole, into which the sensor 53 is inserted. The structure of this embodiment is like a flip bubbler, which achieves flipping through a spherical fit. The base 51 can be composed of a first base 51 and a second base 51, which can be assembled by snap-fit ​​or adhesive bonding. The rotating component 52 is first placed between the first base 51 and the second base 51, and then the two bases 51 are connected and fixed. Snap-fit ​​and adhesive bonding are conventional connection methods and will not be described further. Specifically, the first base 51 and the second base 51 can be an upper base 51 and a lower base 51 or a left base 51 and a right base 51. The rotating component 52 can be easily inserted into the receiving groove 511 when the bases 51 are separated. The sensor 53 is an infrared foot sensor or a microwave radar foot sensor.

[0034] To prevent dust from falling into the sensor 53, a transparent partition 54 is provided on the outside of the mounting groove 14. The sensor 5 is located inside the partition 54. Specifically, the outside of the mounting groove 14 can protrude slightly from the housing 1 and is provided with a sliding groove along the longitudinal or transverse direction. The transparent partition 54 can be pushed in along the sliding groove to isolate the sensor 53 from the outside.

[0035] Example 2: The sensor 5 may further include a base 51, a rotating shaft 55, and a sensor 53. The base 51 is installed in the mounting groove 14, and the rotating shaft 55 is rotatably mounted on the base 51, rotating up and down along the housing 1. A mounting portion is provided on the rotating shaft 55, and the sensor 53 is mounted on the mounting portion with its sensing probe facing outwards. Specifically, the second mounting portion 551 has a mounting hole 552 into which the sensor 53 is inserted. The rotating shaft 55 forms the aforementioned rotating portion. The sensor 53 is an infrared foot sensor or a microwave radar foot sensor.

[0036] The base 51 has rotating holes on both sides for inserting a rotating shaft 55, which rotates within the holes. Preferably, it also includes a sleeve 56, which fits onto the rotating holes and has a through hole for inserting the rotating shaft 55. The through hole allows the rotating shaft 55 to be inserted and deformed to clamp it. The sleeve is typically made of rubber, which has a certain amount of deformation. When the through hole is smaller than the diameter of the rotating shaft 55, the rotating shaft 55 can pass through while still clamping it.

[0037] Similarly, in order to prevent dust from falling into the sensor 53, a transparent partition 54 is provided on the outside of the mounting groove 14, and the sensor 5 is located inside the partition 54. Specifically, the outside of the mounting groove 14 can slightly protrude from the housing 1, and a sliding groove is provided along the longitudinal or transverse direction. The transparent partition 54 can be pushed in along the sliding groove to isolate the sensor 53 from the outside.

[0038] The above are merely embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
