Description

Freeze-proof valve and gas water heater using same
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of water heaters, and particularly relates to an anti-freezing valve and a gas water heater using the same.
Background
The gas water heater is communicated with the outdoor environment through the smoke exhaust pipe, and cold air easily enters the water heater along the smoke exhaust pipe in cold winter when the outdoor temperature is lower than zero ℃, so that frost cracking is caused at the weak part of the waterway pipeline of the water heater, and therefore, most of the gas water heater is additionally provided with an electric heating frost cracking prevention device, and a certain frost prevention function is achieved. The electric heating frost crack prevention device can normally start to work only when the water heater is in an electrified state, and the conditions that a user has a habit of using the water heater to unplug a power supply plug, or a house is powered off in home or a house just decorated is not powered off for a long time and the like can cause the electric heating device to be unable to start, and the pipeline of the water heater is cracked. The water path of the water heater is normally open at the water inlet end, and normally closed at the water outlet end, so that the user does not find the water inlet valve closed in time, and the whole water leakage causes property loss and safety problems such as floor water leakage, electric leakage and the like.
In order to solve the above problems, a valve ball and a frost valve having the same are disclosed in chinese patent publication No. CN201220167240.7 (publication No. CN 202708175U), wherein the valve ball comprises a body, a first channel and a second channel, the first channel is disposed on the body, the second channel is disposed on the body, and the first channel and the second channel are not communicated with each other. The frost valve comprises a valve body, the valve ball and a valve rod for driving the valve ball to rotate, wherein the valve ball is arranged in the valve body, a water inlet, a water outlet and a water outlet are formed in the valve body, the first channel is arranged corresponding to the water outlet and the water inlet, and the second channel is arranged corresponding to the water outlet and the water outlet. In the water inlet state, the first channel enables the water inlet to be communicated with the water outlet, and the water outlet is in a closed state. In the drainage state, the second channel enables the water outlet to be communicated with the water outlet, so that accumulated water in a water tank of the gas water heater connected with the frost valve can be completely drained.
The frost valve has the following defects that 1, a limiting structure for limiting the rotation angle of a valve rod is not arranged, so that if the valve rod rotates excessively or rotates incompletely, the first channel cannot be communicated with a water inlet and a water outlet or the second channel cannot correspond to a water outlet and a water outlet easily, 2, the valve rod is low in use frequency and can be used only when water is required to be discharged, when the valve rod is not used for a long time, the valve rod is difficult to rotate due to condensation of internal lubricating oil, 3, the valve ball is required to be provided with two first channels and second channels which are not communicated mutually, namely, two channels are required to be communicated from the water inlet and the water outlet to the water outlet, one channel is communicated with the water inlet and the water outlet, and the other channel is communicated with the water outlet and the water outlet, so that the frost valve is complex and difficult to process.
For example, the utility model of Chinese patent with patent number CN200720023750.6 (publication number CN 201093097Y) discloses a solar water heater pipeline anti-freezing valve, which consists of an electronic actuator, a valve core and a valve body, wherein the valve core is a ball valve, is a two-position three-way valve, is internally provided with a right-angle channel, and controls the on-off of a waterway through the electronic actuator. The valve core of the frost valve is provided with only one channel, so that the frost valve is simpler, but the rotation of the valve core is controlled by the electronic actuator, if the valve core cannot be rotated under the condition of power failure, water in a pipeline cannot be drained, and finally the pipeline is cracked.
