Description

Water tank
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of water tank and outlet valve parts that are used for the toilet external member.This water tank is called as flushing tank in the U.S..
The present invention is mainly used in gravity flush water tank (being non-hydrocone type), and is described below with reference to the application.
Background technology
It is known using bleed off pipe in water tank.Bleed off pipe allows water to flow to from water tank on toilet or the floor, and can not cause any overflow or siphon refluence.When the water of water tank owing to being applied to negative pressure on the water tank inlet valve and being back to main water supply system, siphon will take place flow backwards.For example, the water of burst can cause the siphon refluence, and water is discharged from the sanitary plumbing systems of a highrise building.Water level in the water tank is risen on the bleed off pipe top, and this will increase the risk that siphon is flow backwards and taken place greatly.The management organization of many countries all requires to overflow air separation gap of existence between horizontal plane and any one the water tank opening in overflow in the water tank, siphon may take place at this place flow backwards.Yet this arrangement is also inadvisable, because the top that horizontal plane is much higher than bleed off pipe is overflowed in overflow, this has greatly increased the water tank minimum constructive height, installs and uses thereby reduced.
Known bleed off pipe depends at one of its top big opening, thereby the flow velocity of maximization bleed off pipe overflows horizontal plane thereby minimize overflow.Yet outlet valve itself also must be designed to the structure that allows water to pass through from bleed off pipe with a high relatively flow velocity.This has reduced the flexibility of design and has increased the required minimum dimension of outlet valve.
There is performance issue (for example on ceiling) equally in known water tank outlet valve when moving in higher installation site.One of them problem is one and exports flow velocity faster and cause outlet valve to be closed too early.This closing too early mainly caused by two problems.The first, formed a stopper effectively at the bath water of bleed off pipe internal flow, the water that leaves water tank herein applies a negative pressure (for example, siphonage), the valve closing that this makes.The second, these current will be removed from pipe as the air that the buoyancy of valve is originated equally, and therefore reduce the overall buoyancy of valve, cause it to close too early.
The problem of another one performance is that air is trapped in the jet water spout between water tank bottom and toilet rear portion in water-rinsing process.This air has formed an air lock, and the flow velocity of restriction bath water is closed and the air that allows to be caught in leaves water tank up to outlet valve.The fast-pulse that this will cause at the last water that discharges of bath causes occurring splashing, noise and reduce the removing ability of toilet.
The performance issue of the outlet valve that another one is known is, their can make the noise of rumble in the later stage of bath, and this is because air is drawn in the bleed off pipe downwards by Venturi effect and enters jet water spout inside.The generation of rumble noise is because water is constantly closed and reopen the bleed off pipe bottom subsequently.
In order to address the above problem, at different installation configurations, the plumber need use the limiter of a series of different sizes to remove to limit flow velocity by outlet valve usually.Though these can solve more aforesaid problems, this limiter is also influential to the removing performance of whole toilet, and needs test and error-detecting, to guarantee to find best solution.

Fig. 6 shows one and is similar to water tank shown in Figure 4 view after opening outlet valve, but does not have ventilating pipe; With
Fig. 7 show among Fig. 6 water tank half towards the time view.
The specific embodiment
Fig. 1 to 3 shows a kind of embodiment with water tank 8 of groove 10.Fig. 1 shows the view of the groove 10 that the bath water 12 that arrived predetermined maximum ordinary water level 14 filled up.A bleed off pipe 16 that is positioned at groove 10 inside, it has the inlet 18 on a top and the outlet 20 of a bottom.The bottom of groove 10 has an outlet opening that is limited by valve seat 21, and this leads to an outlet bolt 22.This bolt 22 is connected on the jet water spout 24 by a reducer 25.Described jet water spout 24 is connected on the main drainage plant by a toilet or urinal, and this is well-known to those skilled in the art.
An outlet valve shown in the Reference numeral 26, and position adjacent with bolt 22 are thereon.Outlet valve 26 comprises a float 26a, an exit seal 26b and an exit seal locking nut 26c.
Described water tank 8 has a columniform basically cap 28, and this cap 28 has the edge 30 of foot.Edge 30 outwards and is vertically upward separated with bleed off pipe 18 levels that enter the mouth.In other words, the lower-most edge 30 of cap 28 is than the 18 high and extensions around bleed off pipe inlet 18 of bleed off pipe inlet.
The operation of water tank 8 when flooded conditions described now.As mentioned above, Fig. 1 shows the view of the water tank 8 of the water filling that is arrived maximum ordinary water level 14.When in groove 10 such water yield being arranged, bleed off pipe inlet 18 is than water level 14 height.
Fig. 2 shows in the water tank 8, and water level 14 begins to spill into bleed off pipe 16 inside from bleed off pipe inlet 18 from maximum ordinary water level rising and as shown in arrow 32, arrives the view of bleed off pipe outlet 20 afterwards.Overflow after the water mainly by jet water spout 24 and toilet or urinal and flow to sewer.
Fig. 3 shows in water tank 8, after the maximum stream flow that reaches bleed off pipe 16 and the view of the cross-sectional area of whole bleed off pipe 16 when all being filled up by water.This has formed a siphonage in pipe 16 inside.When siphonage takes place, cap 28 stops air to enter bleed off pipe 16 and destroys siphon.Therefore cap 28 has advantageously increased the flow of bleed off pipe 16, and it has utilized the potential energy of the water that leaves bleed off pipe 16 that water is drawn onto in the bleed off pipe 16 by siphonage from groove 10.For example, if groove 10 about 250mm are dark, 30 of the lower-most edge of cap 28 just have the water-head of 255mm that water is drawn onto 16 li of bleed off pipes than the bleed off pipe 18 high 5mm that enter the mouth.But, do not have the identical equipment of cap 28 can only provide the water-head of 5mm that water is drawn onto bleed off pipe inlet 18.Therefore, the equipment of this band cap is in theory than similar non-cap equipment on the ability of emptying groove more effective 50 times.This theoretic improvement does not reach in practice, because other effects limit current are arranged.But still reached tangible improvement.
What described cap 28 flow to water bleed off pipe 16 equally overflows water level limitation to the level that is equivalent to cap lower-most edge 30, up to the maximum siphon capacity that reaches bleed off pipe 16.
Described cap 28 same feed tanks 8 provide some other advantages.The first, cap does not influence the operation of Water flushing for cistern and backfill.The second, because siphonal use, cap having significant flowing to improve overflowing on the horizontal performance, and this has increased safety and design factor.The 3rd, cap has reduced the level height of overflowing of top, bleed off pipe top (i.e. inlet), thereby realizes compacter waterbox design, has therefore improved to install and has used.At last, cap has improved the flexibility of design, because it allows to use the less bleed off pipe with the moving restriction of more multithread.
Second embodiment of described water tank 8 ' is shown in Fig. 4 to 7.Same parts are used with Reference numeral identical shown in Fig. 1 to 3 and are represented.Water tank 8 ' comprises a ventilating pipe 32, and it has one and exports upper end 34 and that 20 fluids are communicated with bleed off pipe and extend to lower end 36 in the jet water spout 24.
The operation of water tank 8 ' is described during referring now to attached Figure 4 and 5 impacts flush.Fig. 4 shows the water of filling in the groove 10 and reaches the view of being scheduled to maximum ordinary water level 14.In order to begin bath, utilize button or lever (not shown) to operate a lifter (not shown equally) and promote bleed off pipe 16.This has promoted sealing 26b equally away from valve seat 21.As shown in Figure 5, this makes water withdraw from groove 10 by outlet bolt 22 and jet water spout 24.The air that is trapped among the float 26a provides buoyancy, and outlet valve 26 is held open.When outlet valve 26 discharges buoyancy, both because drawdown also because some mechanisms, outlet valve 26 descends and seals 26b simultaneously and combine with valve seat 21, thereby stops current.Water tank 8 ' is prepared another time bath by the backfill of an inlet valve (not shown) then.This flush operation is that those skilled in the art is known.
As shown in Figure 5, the lower end 36 of ventilating pipe 32 extends to a certain degree (degree of depth) in jet water spout 24, thereby laminar flow forms at this.This has stoped current to be got back in ventilating pipe 32 and the bleed off pipe 16, and therefore advantageously stops problem of closing too early previously discussed.
Fig. 6 shows the equivalent situation (for example water is back in the bleed off pipe 16) that takes place when lacking a ventilating pipe.
In addition, the water of spout 10 is owing to action of gravity is quickened.Along with the increase of water flow velocity, thereby taken a small cross section in jet water spout 24 inside long-pending, therefore forms the airbag 38 of closing never below ventilating pipe 32.This allows the air in jet water spout 24 to withdraw from by bleed off pipe 16, and therefore advantageously overcomes air lock problem previously discussed.This has caused forming consistent flow velocity in whole water-rinsing process.In addition, ventilating pipe 32 lower ends 36 are closed fully by water never, and the noise problem of rumble previously discussed can not occur yet.
Fig. 7 shows the equivalent situation (water has been closed the lower end of bleed off pipe 16) that takes place when lacking a ventilating pipe.
Although the present invention is described with reference to preferred implementation, those skilled in the art will be appreciated that the present invention can realize with other form.For example, bleed off pipe, cap and ventilating pipe can not be cylindrical and can be any cross sectional shape.
