Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

This application relates to drain, and specifically relates to a quick-cleaning drain for quick replacement of cleaning parts.


BACKGROUND

Drain is a draining apparatus used on the ground to connect with the draining pipe system, which is an important interface connecting the draining pipe system and the indoor ground. As an important part of the draining system in the residence, its performance has a direct impact on the quality of indoor air, and is very important for controlling the odor in the bathrooms.


For better odor control and draining effect of the drain, users tend to use the drain cores which can match with each other and have better effect, and users can directly replace the drain cores if damaged in use, without removing the drain, which can avoid the trouble of removing and installing the drains.


Floor drains are often used in bathrooms, where hair and other debris are easy to appear, in order to avoid clogging of the drainage, such debris needs to be blocked in order to avoid its inflow into the drainage causing clogging of the drainage, therefore, most floor drains are equipped with filter parts, some of which are panel filter parts directly covering the floor drains, however, if the panel filter is used alone, hair and other long, thin strips cannot be effectively blocked, and clogging of the drain is still a problem. Generally, floor drains have flat panels that cannot be used for storing rubbish, so it is easy for rubbish to accumulate, and therefore the rubbish needs to be cleaned frequently. Sometimes the floor drain is used once but needs to be cleaned many times, for example, when a woman takes a bath and washes her hair at the same time, due to the accumulation of fallen hair, the floor drain panel is easily clogged, and the drainage is significantly affected, and the floor drain panel needs to be cleaned in time so that it can be used for draining and for use normally
