DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0036] It should be noted that, unless contradictory, the embodiments and features in the embodiments in the present application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments with reference to the drawings.
[0037] 1 to 12, the drainage structure of the present embodiment 1 includes a connector 4 including a main pipeline 41 and a drain pipeline 42 connected to each other, an intake valve 10 provided in the main pipeline 41, having an openable valve port 121, and communicating the valve port 121 with the main pipeline 41 when the valve port 121 is open, and a drain valve 5 provided in the drain pipeline 42, having an openable drain port, and communicating the drain port with the drain pipeline 42 when the drain port is open. By using the above configuration, the intake valve 10 and the drain valve 5 are integrated together, so that when the drain valve 5 drains, the pipeline automatically draws in air through the intake valve 10, and a certain pressure is maintained in the pipeline, thereby avoiding the generation of negative pressure inside the pipeline and ensuring that the residual water in the pipeline can be completely discharged by the drain valve 5, thereby solving the problem of low drainage efficiency of the drain valve 5 in the prior art.
[0038] In the drainage structure of this embodiment, the intake valve 10 includes a valve seat 1 having an intake chamber 12 therein, a valve port 121 located at one end of the intake chamber 12, and an exhaust port 14 at the other end of the intake chamber 12, a valve core 2 that is provided in the intake chamber 12 so as to be able to float up and down and opens and closes the valve port 121, a plurality of communication grooves 22 provided at the bottom of the valve core 2 and communicating with each other, and a plurality of circulation passages 3 that exist between the valve core 2 and the inner wall of the intake chamber 12 and communicate with the communication grooves 22 in one-to-one correspondence. In this way, by providing a plurality of circulation passages 3 and a plurality of communication grooves 22 and corresponding the communication grooves 22 to the circulation passages 3 in one-to-one correspondence, the flow of gas during intake is facilitated, the amount of intake air is increased, and the guide role is also well performed.
[0039] In some embodiments, the connector 4 is provided with a mounting port 411 and the intake valve 10 is removably mounted to the mounting port 411 .
[0040] In some embodiments, the intake valve 10 is attached to the top of the drain valve 5, the valve core 2 of the intake valve 10 is opened by its own weight, and the intake valve realizes the intake function when negative pressure occurs in the water pressure.
[0041] 1 to 6, the valve core 2 has a cylindrical structure, the communicating cross section 21 is a plane, and the intersection line between the communicating cross section 21 and the circular end surface of the valve core 2 is a tangent to the circular end surface of the valve core 2 .
[0042] In order to improve the intake efficiency, in the most recent structure of this embodiment, please refer to Figs. 1 to 6.
[0043] 1 to 6, in this embodiment, one end of each communicating groove 22 is used to communicate with the flow passage 3 corresponding to each communicating groove 22, and the other ends of each communicating groove 22 communicate with each other.
[0044] 1 to 6, in some embodiments, each communication groove 22 is provided perpendicular to the communication cut surface 21, and the extension lengths of each communication groove 22 are equal. This allows the gas to pass through the shortest path, thereby reducing the effect of the gas flow on the structure of the intake valve 10.
[0045] The intake valve of this embodiment may have a communication groove provided on the communication cut surface 21 , one end of the communication groove communicating with the valve port 121 and the other end of the communication groove communicating with the communication groove 22 .
[0046] 1 to 6, the valve seat 1 is provided with a blocking portion 13 , which is provided at an exhaust port 14 of the valve seat 1 , and the blocking portion 13 confines the valve core 2 within the intake chamber 12 .
[0047] The valve seat 1 includes a first valve seat body 101 having a valve port 121 and an intake passage 11 communicating with the valve port 121, and a second valve seat body 102 connected to the first valve seat body 101 and having at least a portion of the intake chamber 12 provided therein. There is a mounting groove between the first valve seat body 101 and the second valve seat body 102, and a first sealing member 16 is provided in the mounting groove.
[0048] Referring to Figures 1 to 12, the drain valve 5 includes an anti-freeze valve core 51, a thermostat 52, and an anti-freeze valve seat 53 connected to the drain pipe 42, the drain port is provided at one end of the anti-freeze valve seat 53, one end of the thermostat 52 is fastened and engaged with the anti-freeze valve core 51, and the thermostat 52 and the anti-freeze valve core 51 are both movably provided within the anti-freeze valve seat 53 to seal or open the drain port.
[0049] In some embodiments, the connector 4 is made of metal materials such as brass and aluminum alloys, which have good thermal conductivity and can conduct the heat of the main water pipe to the thermostat 52 well, and can more accurately prevent freezing, and can immediately open the valve to drain water when the water temperature is low, and immediately close the valve when the water temperature is high. Non-metallic materials are not suitable for connectors because of their low thermal conductivity, and stainless steel materials have relatively low thermal conductivity, so when they are used as materials for the connector 4, it is necessary to check the temperature difference between the water temperature of the main water pipe and the temperature of the thermostat 52, otherwise there is a risk of it being opened accidentally in a low temperature environment. On the other hand, materials with good thermal conductivity such as brass and aluminum alloys are suitable materials because they can ensure a low temperature difference between the main water pipe and the thermostat 52.
[0050] In some embodiments, the intake valve 10 and the connector 4 are connected by a removable structure such as a screw, thereby realizing a replaceable structure.
[0051] The drainage structure of this embodiment integrates an intake valve 10 and a drain valve 5, the water inlet of the drain valve 5 and the connector 4 are connected to each other, and the intake valve 10 and the connector 4 are connected to each other. The intake valve 10 can realize the air supply function when negative pressure occurs in the system. When there is water pressure, the intake valve is in a closed state. When the water temperature approaches 0°C, the drain valve 5 automatically opens to realize anti-freezing.
[0052] The drainage structure of this embodiment will be described below. The drainage structure can automatically suck in air when it is necessary to drain, and completely drain the water in the pipeline. The intake valve 10 is attached to the top of the drainage structure, so that the intake from the top can be realized when sucking in air, so that the negative pressure is more prominent and the drainage is smoother, while the water does not flow out automatically when there is no pressure difference. The valve core 2 of the intake valve 10 opens the valve by its own weight, and when there is water pressure, the valve core 2 moves upward under the action of the water pressure to close the valve, and when the water pressure drops to a certain level or negative pressure occurs in the valve, the valve core 2 moves downward under the action of its own weight and negative pressure difference to open the valve, thereby realizing intake. The intake valve 10 and the main pipeline 41 are connected by a screw, which realizes the maintenance and replacement function, and can facilitate replacement and maintenance without removing the entire valve.
[0053] The drain valve 5 is directly connected to the drain pipe 42 of the connector 4, which saves the space of the pipeline and eliminates the need to pull out the drain pipe separately. At the same time, the drain valve is connected to the drain pipeline, which can better sense the water temperature of the drain pipeline, and the starting temperature of the drain valve is more accurate, which can more accurately prevent freezing, and can immediately drain water when the water temperature is low and needs to be drained, and prevent water leakage and erroneous drainage when the water temperature is high.
[0054] In some embodiments, the drainage structure has a thermostat 52 that can sense temperature, and when the temperature drops to a set temperature, the thermostat 52 contracts to open the valve, and when the temperature of the thermostat 52 rises to the set temperature, the thermostat 52 expands to close the valve. By setting the opening temperature close to 0°C, the requirement of anti-freeze can be realized.
[0055] 13 to 19, the intake valve of the second embodiment of the present application includes a valve seat 1 having an intake chamber 12 therein, both ends of which are a valve port 121 and an exhaust port 14, and a valve core 2 that is provided in the intake chamber 12 so as to be able to float up and down to seal or open the valve port 121, a communication groove 22 facing the exhaust port 14 is provided at one end of the valve core 2 away from the valve port 121, a flow passage 3 exists between the valve core 2 and the side wall of the intake chamber 12, and the valve port 121, the flow passage 3, the communication groove 22 and the exhaust port 14 can be sequentially communicated with each other. With the above configuration, when the valve core 2 of the intake valve opens the intake passage 11 under the action of its own weight, it is only necessary to provide the communication groove 22 in the valve core 2 and secure the flow passage 3 between the valve core 2 and the intake chamber 12 in advance, which simplifies the structure of the intake valve.
[0056] Specifically, in this embodiment, the flow passage 3 may be formed by a clearance fit between the valve core 2 and the side wall of the intake chamber 12, or the flow passage 3 may be formed by providing a groove on the outer periphery of the valve core 2 or by providing a groove on the side wall of the intake chamber 12.
[0057] 13 and 14, in the intake valve of this embodiment, a blocking portion 13 is provided at the edge of the exhaust port 14, and the blocking portion 13 restricts the valve core 2 within the intake chamber 12. In this embodiment, a bendable blocking portion 13 is provided, and when in use, the blocking portion 13 can restrict the valve core 2 by crimping, which simplifies the assembly of the valve core 2.
[0058] In the intake valve of this embodiment, referring to Figures 13 and 14, the blocking portion 13 is bendable, and before bending, the blocking portion 13 is cylindrical extending along the axis of the intake chamber 12, the inner diameter of the blocking portion is larger than the inner diameter of the intake chamber 12, and a step is formed between the inner wall of the blocking portion 13 and the inner wall of the intake chamber 12, and after bending, the blocking portion 13 is fastened and engaged with the bottom of the valve core 2.
[0059] When installing the valve core 2, first, the valve core 2 is passed through the central passage of the cutoff part 13 and inserted into the intake chamber, and then the cutoff part 13 is bent so that the cutoff part 13 restricts the valve core 2 by crimping, thereby preventing the valve core 2 from falling out of the intake chamber. The above configuration makes it easier to install the valve core 2. The step in this embodiment can ensure the bending position of the cutoff part 13, and avoid the uncertainty of the bending position of the cutoff part 13 causing the valve core 2 to be clamped.
[0060] In some embodiments, the step of the intake valve is provided at the crimping position of the blocking portion 13, thereby limiting the bending deformation area of the blocking portion 13 and preventing the blocking portion 13 from bending in other areas and becoming pinched or caught on the valve core 2.
[0061] 13 to 15, in the intake valve of this embodiment, the valve seat 1 includes a first valve seat body 101 having an intake passage 11 communicating with a valve port 121 provided therein, and a second valve seat body 102 connected to the first valve seat body 101, with at least a portion of the valve port 121 provided within the intake passage 11.
[0062] 16 to 18, in the intake valve of this embodiment, one end of the valve core 2 away from the exhaust port has a chamfered portion 24 that abuts against the cutoff portion 13. The chamfered portion 24 can further prevent the valve core 2 from being clamped after the cutoff portion 13 is crimped, thereby playing a protective role for the valve core 2.
[0063] In the intake valve of this embodiment, referring to Figures 16 to 18, there is a first mounting groove 15 between the first valve seat body 101 and the second valve seat body 102, and a first sealing member 16 is provided in the first mounting groove 15.
[0064] 16 to 19, in the intake valve of this embodiment, there are multiple intake passages 11, each of which is connected to a valve port 121, and each of the multiple intake passages 11 has an intake port 111 at one end away from the intake chamber 12.
[0065] In the intake valve of this embodiment, referring to Figures 16 to 18, the valve core 2 includes a valve head 201 that is movably arranged to seal or open the valve port 121, and a valve body 202 that is located in the intake chamber 12, connected to the valve head 201, and has a second mounting groove 25 between it and the valve head 201, and a second sealing member 23 is provided in the second mounting groove 25.
[0066] 16 to 19, in the intake valve of this embodiment, a communication groove 22 is provided in the valve body, and there are a plurality of communication grooves 22, and the plurality of communication grooves 22 are provided at intervals from each other, or there are a plurality of communication grooves 22, and the plurality of communication grooves 22 communicate with each other. This can improve the exhaust efficiency of the intake valve.
[0067] In the intake valve of this embodiment, the valve core 2 is made of a non-metallic material. By using the valve core 2 made of a non-metallic material, the occurrence of rust can be further prevented.
[0068] In this embodiment, the valve core 2 realizes the flow through the flow passage 3 between the valve seat 1 and the side wall, and the valve seat 1 is provided with an intake passage 11. When the valve is opened, the gas passes through the intake passage 11, flows through the valve port 121, and then flows through the intake valve core 2 to realize the intake of gas. When the valve needs to be closed, the pressure in the intake chamber 12 becomes greater than the external pressure, and at the beginning of the valve closing, the water in the intake chamber 12 flows through the communication groove 22 of the valve core 2, then through the flow passage 3, flows through the valve port 121, and finally flows out through the intake passage 11. When the pressure difference is insufficient, the valve core 2 is insufficient to overcome its own weight and friction force, and the intake valve will constantly drain water. In this case, if the pressure difference is not established in the valve core 2, the inside and outside pressure difference cannot be fully utilized. Therefore, during the operation of the intake valve, when the flow capacity of the valve port 121 is smaller than that of the intake passage 11, the main pressure drop of the water is applied to the valve core 2, so that the valve core 2 can close the valve with a lower pressure difference, thereby preventing excessive water flow. The lighter the material of the valve core 2 is, the smaller the closing pressure difference is, and the stronger the ability to prevent water overflow is.
[0069] Since the operation is simple, only the communicating groove 22 needs to be provided on the valve core 2 .
[0070] The intake valve of this embodiment is usually installed in a pipeline, and an anti-freeze valve is installed in the pipeline at the same time. When the pressure in the intake chamber is small or the pressure is smaller than the external pressure, the valve core 2 moves downward under the combined action of its own weight and pressure difference to realize the opening of the valve, thereby injecting air into the valve, and avoiding the air entering the pipeline and the pressure in the pipeline becoming too small; in a low temperature environment, the anti-freeze valve automatically opens, and the remaining water in the pipeline is discharged through the anti-freeze valve. Therefore, the intake valve of this embodiment can realize the pressure balance inside and outside the pipeline, and the drainage of the anti-freeze valve can be smooth.
[0071] In some embodiments, the intake valve is provided with a valve core 2 and a valve seat 1, the valve core 2 is provided with a sealing ring, the intake valve core is restricted by crimping, a communicating groove 22 is provided at the bottom of the valve core 2, a through hole is provided in the valve seat 1, the flow area of the valve seat exhaust port 14 is larger than the flow area of the valve seat port 121, and a step is provided at the crimping point of the valve seat 1 to prevent the valve core 2 from getting caught due to deformation of the guide surface during crimping.
[0072] In some embodiments, the outer diameter of the intake valve core 2 is smaller than the inner diameter of the valve seat 1, and communication is achieved by a gap between the valve core 2 and the valve seat 1.
[0073] In some embodiments, the head of the intake valve is provided with an O-ring groove, where an O-ring is placed to provide a more reliable seal.
[0074] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present application achieve the following technical effects:
[0075] In the intake valve of this embodiment, when the valve core 2 of the intake valve opens the intake passage 11 under the action of its own weight, it is sufficient to provide a communicating groove 22 in the valve core 2 and ensure in advance the flow passage 3 between the valve core 2 and the intake chamber 12, thereby simplifying the structure of the intake valve.
[0076] The intake valve of this embodiment is provided with a bendable blocking portion 13, and when in use, the blocking portion 13 can restrict the valve core 2 by crimping, so that assembly of the valve core 2 is simplified.
[0077] The step of the intake valve in this embodiment is provided at the crimping position of the blocking portion 13, thereby limiting the bending deformation area of the blocking portion 13 and preventing the blocking portion 13 from bending in other areas and becoming pinched or caught on the valve core 2.

Therefore, the anti-freeze valve provided in this embodiment can solve the technical problem of the low sealing reliability of the drain port 532 of the drain valve 5 in the prior art.
[0080] It should be explained that in this embodiment, "at least a portion of the guide sleeve 55 is in close contact with the inner wall of the valve chamber 531" does not mean that at least a portion of the guide sleeve 55 is in complete contact with the inner wall of the valve chamber 531, and there may be a slight gap between at least a portion of the guide sleeve 55 and the inner wall of the valve chamber 531, but this slight gap does not affect the inner wall of the valve chamber 531 guiding the position of the guide sleeve 55 along the extension direction of the inner wall of the valve chamber 531, so as to effectively ensure the smoothness and stability of the guiding of the guide sleeve 55.
[0081] In this embodiment, the thermostat 52 includes a main body 521 and a first positioning flange 522 connected to each other, the first positioning flange 522 is provided to protrude from the main body 521, and one end of the guide sleeve 55 close to the drain port 532 abuts against the first positioning flange 522.

[0083] In this embodiment, the cylinder 551 has a first guide segment 5511 and a second guide segment 5512 connected to each other, the second guide segment 5512 is located on the side of the first guide segment 5511 closer to the drain port 532, and the second guide segment 5512 is connected to the bottom cover 552, the first guide segment 5511 is in close contact with the inner wall of the valve chamber 531, and the second guide segment 5512 is spaced apart from the inner wall of the valve chamber 531. Using such a structural setting, it is easy to improve the guide stability for the guide sleeve 55 by the first guide segment 5511, and it is easy to reduce the guide resistance of the guide sleeve 55 by avoiding the inner wall of the valve chamber 531 by the second guide segment 5512.

By using such a structural setting, it is easy to smoothly compress the first elastic member 54 protruding from the guide sleeve 55 into the chamber of the guide sleeve 55 under the guiding action of the guide surface 554, and the stability of the role of the elastic member can be improved.
[0086] In this embodiment, the second guide segment 5512 is provided with a through-hole 55121, and the gap between the second guide segment 5512 and the inner wall of the valve chamber 531 forms a first through-hole, the through-hole 55121 communicates the chamber of the guide sleeve 55 with the first through-hole, the first positioning flange 522 and the inner wall of the valve chamber 531 are spaced apart to form a second through-hole, the freeze-proof valve core 51 and the inner wall of the valve chamber 531 are spaced apart to form a third through-hole, and the first through-hole communicates with the second through-hole and the third through-hole, so that the fluid flows from the chamber of the guide sleeve 55 to the drain port 532.

[0089] Specifically, the freeze prevention valve core 51 is a cylinder having arc-shaped structures cut out on both sides thereof, and the cut-out arc-shaped structures can form avoidance sections.

Alternatively, the main body 521 of the thermostat 52 is movably inserted into the flow port 571 of the restricting member 57, making it easy for the thermostat 52 to have a sufficient expansion and contraction space. Alternatively, one end of the first elastic member 54 close to the communication port 534 is abutted against the restricting member 57, making it easy for the thermostat 52 to have a sufficient expansion and contraction space.
[0094] It should be clarified that "the main body 521 of the thermostat 52 is movably inserted into the flow opening 571 of the restricting member 57" here does not necessarily mean that the main body 521 of the thermostat 52 is inserted into the flow opening 571 of the restricting member 57, but rather means that when the length of the thermostat 52 changes due to a change in temperature, the first elastic member 54 can be compressed and inserted into the flow opening 571 of the restricting member 57.
[0095] In this embodiment, the first elastic member 54 and the second elastic member 56 may both have a spring structure.
[0096] The drain valve 5 is composed of an anti-freeze valve seat 53, a thermostat 52, a guide sleeve 55, a first elastic member 54, an anti-freeze valve core 51, a second elastic member 56, etc., the guide sleeve 55 is provided on the outside of the thermostat 52 and the first elastic member 54, the guide sleeve 55 is guided and engaged with the valve group, the inside of the guide sleeve 55 is clearance-fitted to the thermostat 52, and the bottom of the guide sleeve 55 is in flat contact with the thermostat 52, playing a role in positioning.

Specifically, the number of flow through holes 55121 may be six. The anti-freeze valve seat 53 is provided with an avoidance groove 533, and there may be multiple avoidance grooves 533, and the multiple avoidance grooves 533 are provided at intervals along the periphery of the valve chamber 531. Specifically, the number of avoidance grooves 533 may be four.

[0100] Specifically, the guide sleeve 55 is provided on the outside of the thermostat 52 and the first elastic member 54, the guide sleeve 55 is guided and engaged with the valve group, the inside of the guide sleeve 55 is clearance-fitted into the thermostat 52, and the bottom of the guide sleeve 55 is in flat contact with the thermostat 52, playing a positioning role. The good engagement between the guide sleeve 55 and the anti-freeze valve seat 53 ensures effective guiding, while the slight clearance fit between the inside of the guide sleeve 55 and the thermostat 52 ensures a certain degree of coaxiality, and the close contact between the bottom of the guide sleeve 55 and the thermostat 52 ensures a certain degree of verticality, so that the thermostat 52 and the guide sleeve 55 are firmly in close contact and positioned, and the guide sleeve 55 and the anti-freeze valve seat 53 are reliably guided to move up and down, ensuring good concentricity with the anti-freeze valve seat 53 when the thermostat 52 moves up and down, greatly improving the reliability and coaxiality of the movement of the thermostat 52 within the anti-freeze valve seat 53, improving the role of positioning the thermostat 52 relative to the anti-freeze valve core 51, ensuring that the anti-freeze valve core 51 moves up and down, and ensuring the reliability of the sealing of the drain port 532.

The freeze prevention valve core 51 is provided with a guide inclined surface 561 of the second elastic member 56, and the guide action between the guide inclined surface and the spring ensures stability during the movement of the guide sleeve.
[0102] In this embodiment, the fluid flows through the inside of the guide sleeve 55, the through-hole 55121, the first flow gap, the second flow gap between the thermostat 52 and the antifreeze valve seat 53, the avoidance groove 533 of the antifreeze valve seat 53, the gap between the end face of the antifreeze valve core 51 and the valve seat, the third flow gap, and the drain port 532. Since the flow diameter of each part is sufficiently large, the flow capacity is ensured, the flow capacity Kv value when the drain valve 5 is opened is improved, and the drain capacity is increased. By providing the guide sleeve 55 to perform a reliable guide and improving the flow path, the guide does not require a clearance fit between the thermostat 52 and the antifreeze valve seat 53, so that the gap between the thermostat 52 and the antifreeze valve seat 53 can be enlarged to realize a significant improvement in the flow capacity.
