Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The disclosure relates to a toilet water tank drain valve opened by air pressure, in particular to an air pressure driven toilet water tank drain valve and an air release valve thereof.

BACKGROUND

The traditional toilet water tank drain valve pushes the swing rod by pressing the button. The swing rod lifts the inner core tube of the drain valve and fits the hook of the half drainage limit device or the full drainage limit device. The water sealing piece at the lower end of the inner core tube separates from the water outlet of the valve body to open the half drainage limit or the full drainage limit function of the drain valve. When the water level of the water tank falls, the half drainage floating bucket of the half drainage limit device or the full drainage floating bucket of the full drainage limit device loses buoyancy, the inner core tube loses the hook support of the half drainage limit device or the full drainage limit device, the inner core tube is released from the hook and fall, the water sealing piece at the lower end of the inner core tube and the water outlet of the valve body are resealed, and the drainage is closed.

It can be seen from the above that the button, swing rod and inner core tube of the traditional toilet water tank drain valve are a mechanical lever transmission structure, which requires people to manually press the button to achieve the lifting of the inner core tube. Now the country advocates people to pursue a high-quality and beautiful life, and people hope to open the toilet water tank drain valve through electronic induction, instead of pressing the drain valve button installed on the toilet water tank, which is convenience, saves effort, and also avoids cross infection caused by different people pressing the drain valve button.

At present, there are air pressure driven toilet water tank drain valves on the market, which are electrically connected with the air pump through the electronic inductive switch and controller, and the air pump is connected with the telescopic airbag through the air pipe. The air pipe is connected with an electromagnetic pressure relief valve. When drainage is needed, people wave their hands above the electronic inductive switch, and the electronic inductive switch sends the inductive signal to the controller. The controller turns on the air pump, and the air pump inflates the telescopic airbag. The telescopic airbag expands and pushes the lifting cover on the inner core tube of the drain valve to drive the inner core tube to rise. When the inner core tube rises to clamp the hook of the half drainage limit device or the full drainage limit device of the drain valve, the electromagnetic pressure relief valve opens, and the air in the telescopic airbag is released through the electromagnetic pressure relief valve. The telescopic airbag uses its own elastic retraction to restore the original state, giving way to the falling of the inner core tube, the water sealing piece at the lower end of the inner core tube separates from the water outlet of the valve body, and the half drainage or full drainage function of the drain valve is enabled. When the water level of the water tank falls, and the half drainage floating bucket of the half drainage limit device or the full drainage floating bucket of the full drainage limit device loses buoyancy, the inner core tube loses the hook support of the half drainage limit device or the full drainage limit device, and the inner core tube falls after the clamp relationship between the inner core tube and the hook is relieved. Before the inner core tube falls, the water sealing piece at the lower end of the inner core tube and the water outlet of the valve body are resealed, such that the drainage is closed.

It can be seen from the above that the telescopic airbag needs to be depressurized through the electromagnetic pressure relief valve. Once the electromagnetic pressure relief valve is damaged and fails, the telescopic airbag can not be inflated or deflated, resulting in the abnormal use of the drain valve. In addition, the electromagnetic pressure relief valve has the disadvantages of high cost and power consumption. The inventor has developed an air release valve that uses a mechanical structure to realize the pressure relief of the telescopic airbag.

A piston push rod 83 is slidably provided inside the cylinder body 82, the lower end of the piston push rod 83 is connected with the telescopic airbag 8, and the upper end of the piston push rod 83 extends out of the cylinder body 82 to push the lifting cover 43 of the inner core tube 4.

As shown in FIG. 4 to FIG. 9, the working principle of the air pressure driven toilet water tank drain valve of the disclosure is that when the drain valve 7 needs to be opened for drainage, the electronic induction switch (not shown) senses the motion of the people such as people wave their hands above the electronic induction switch, the number or the time of people wave their hands represents that the drain valve is to open the half drainage or the full drainage, as shown in FIG. 7 to FIG. 9, if the electronic induction switch (not shown) senses the instruction of the half drainage, the instruction signal of the half drainage will be sent to the controller (not shown), the controller turns on the air pump (not shown), the air pump inflates the left telescopic airbag 8 for the half drainage through the half drainage air pipe 80, the left telescopic airbag 8 for the half drainage expands and pushes the lifting cover 431 on the inner core tube 4 of the drain valve, so as to drive the inner core tube 4 to rise, and the water sealing piece 42 separates from the water outlet 51 of the drain valve 7, so as to open the half drainage function of the drain valve. Since the position of the half limit device 61 is higher than that of the full limit device 62, the half drainage clamping point 44 in the middle of the inner core tube 4 is clamped with the half drainage hook 613 firstly, at this time, the full drainage clamping point 45 in the middle of the inner core tube 4 dose not raise to the position of the full drainage hook 623 (as shown in FIG. 7), such that the full drainage hook 623 cannot play a clamp limit function to the full drainage clamping point 45. When the half drainage clamping point 44 in the middle of the inner core tube 4 is clamped with the half drainage hook 613 of the half drainage limit device 61, because the position of the left push part 31 is higher than that of the right push part 32 in the push block 3, the left push part 31 firstly contacts the inclined plane 25 of the lower part of the upper stopper 24 of the left air release valve 9, the push block 3 pushes against the inclined plane 25 of the lower part of the upper stopper 24. The elastic element 21 is compressed, the sliding block 2 moves upward and laterally shafts on the valve seat 1 of the air release valve 9, the limit bump 28 of the sliding block 2 exits the limit stopper 14 on the valve seat 1, and the sealing gasket 29 at the bottom of the sliding block 2 separates from the air release nozzle 13, so as to open the air release nozzle 13 for air release. the left telescopic airbag 8 for the half drainage conducts air release through the air pipe 81 and the air release nozzle 13, the left telescopic airbag 8 for the half drainage uses its own elastic retraction to restore the original state, giving way to the falling of the inner core tube 4. After the half drainage is completed, the half drainage floating bucket 611 of the half drainage limit device 61 loses its buoyancy and falls, driving the half drainage rotating frame 612 to rotate, and the half drainage hook 613 disengages from the clamping of the half drainage clamping point 44 in the middle of the inner core tube 4. When the inner core tube 4 falls and drives the water sealing piece 42 to reseal the water outlet 51 of the drain valve, the lower stopper 23 is pressed by the push block 3 (as shown in FIG. 3), the elastic element 21 pushes against the limit bump 28 of the sliding block 2 to insert into the limit stopper 14 on the valve seat 1, the sealing gasket 29 at the bottom of the sliding block 2 blocks the air release nozzle 13, so as to seal the air release nozzle 13, and a closed air path is formed between the air pump and the left telescopic airbag 8 for the half drainage to prepare for the next drainage opening.

Since the position of the half limit device 61 is higher than that of the full limit device 62, the full drainage clamping point 45 in the middle of the inner core tube 4 raise to the position of the full drainage hook 623, at this time, the half drainage clamping point 44 is over the position of the half drainage hook 613, such that the half drainage hook 613 cannot play a clamp limit function to the half drainage clamping point 44. When the full drainage clamping point 45 in the middle of the inner core tube 4 is clamped with the full drainage hook 623 of the full drainage limit device 62, because the position of the left push part 31 is higher than that of the right push part 32 in the push block 3, the left push part 31 firstly contacts the inclined plane 25 of the lower part of the upper stopper 24 of the left air release valve 9, the push block 3 pushes against the inclined plane 25 of the lower part of the upper stopper 24. The elastic element 21 is compressed, the sliding block 2 moves upward and laterally shafts on the valve seat 1 of the air release valve 9, the limit bump 28 of the sliding block 2 exits the limit stopper 14 on the valve seat 1, and the sealing gasket 29 at the bottom of the sliding block 2 separates from the air release nozzle 13, so as to open the air release nozzle 13. Since the left telescopic airbag 8 for the half drainage is not inflated, the left telescopic airbag 8 for the half drainage does not push the left half drainage lifting cover 431 on the inner core tube 4, and the left telescopic airbag 8 for the half drainage remains in the original state. At this moment, the right push part 32 of the push block 3 pushes against the inclined plane 25 of the lower part of the upper stopper 24 of the air release valve 9 for the right full drainage. The elastic element 21 is compressed, the sliding block 2 moves upward and laterally shafts on the valve seat 1, the limit bump 28 of the sliding block 2 exits the limit stopper 14 on the valve seat 1, and the sealing gasket 29 at the bottom of the sliding block 2 separates from the air release nozzle 13, so as to open the air release nozzle 13. the right telescopic airbag 8 for the full drainage conducts air release through the air pipe 81 and the air release nozzle 13, the right telescopic airbag 8 for the full drainage uses its own elastic retraction to restore the original state, giving way to the falling of the inner core tube 4. After the full drainage is completed, the full drainage floating bucket 621 of the full drainage limit device 62 loses its buoyancy and falls, driving the full drainage rotating frame 622 to rotate, and the full drainage hook 623 disengages from the clamping of the full drainage clamping point 45 in the middle of the inner core tube 4. When the inner core tube 4 falls and drives the water sealing piece 42 to reseal the water outlet 51 of the drain valve, the lower stopper 23 is pressed by the push block 3, the elastic element 21 pushes against the limit bump 28 of the sliding block 2 to insert into the limit hole of the limit stopper 14 on the valve seat 1, the sealing gasket 29 at the bottom of the sliding block 2 blocks the air release nozzle 13, so as to seal the air release nozzle 13, and a closed air path is formed between the air pump and the right telescopic airbag 8 for the full drainage to prepare for the next drainage opening.
