Detailed Description
The present utility model first provides a drain pipe for a refrigerator, fig. 1 is a schematic structural view of a drain pipe for a refrigerator according to one embodiment of the present utility model, and fig. 2 is a schematic structural exploded view of a drain pipe for a refrigerator according to one embodiment of the present utility model. Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a drain pipe 10 for a refrigerator of the present utility model includes a main pipe body 11 and an adjusting device 12.
The main pipe body 11 has an inner end port 111 for communicating with a drain port of the refrigerator, and an outer end port 112 opposite to the inner end port 111, and the outer end port 112 is closed. Further, a drain hole 114 is formed in the peripheral wall of the preset section 113 of the main pipe body 11 located outside the refrigerator case.
The adjusting device 12 is configured to be movably disposed inside the main tube body 11 in the axial direction of the main tube body 11 according to the amount of water inside the main tube body 11 to adjust the flow-through area of the drain hole 114 for draining water such that the flow-through area of the drain hole 114 is positively correlated with the amount of water inside the main tube body 11.
In the present utility model, the flow-through area of the drain hole 114 is not the entire hole area of the drain hole 114, but the area of the drain hole 114 where drainage is possible.
The drain pipe 10 for a refrigerator of the present utility model includes a main pipe body 11 having an inner end port 111 and an outer end port 112, and an adjusting device 12 provided in the main pipe body 11. Unlike the prior art, the outer end port 112 of the main pipe body 11 is closed, and condensed water is not discharged from the outer end port 112 of the main pipe body 11. Further, the drain hole 114 of the drain pipe 10 is opened in the peripheral wall of the main pipe body preset section 113, and the adjusting device 12 is movable in the axial direction of the main pipe body 11 according to the amount of water in the main pipe body 11, so that the flow area of the drain hole 114 for draining water is adjusted such that the flow area of the drain hole 114 is positively correlated with the amount of water in the main pipe body 11. That is, when the amount of water in the main pipe body 11 is large, the overflow area of the drain hole 114 is increased by the movement of the adjusting device 12, so that the water in the main pipe body 11 is drained as soon as possible, and the normal draining function of the drain pipe 10 is achieved.
The drain pipe 10 of the present utility model does not need an external bellows, and water discharged from a water outlet of a refrigerator can directly enter an evaporation dish through the drain pipe 10. In addition, since the adjusting device 12 is disposed inside the main pipe body 11 and is preloaded inside the main pipe body 11 before the main pipe body 11 is mounted to the refrigerator cabinet, no additional external space is occupied, and no additional mounting process is required after the main pipe body 11 is mounted to the refrigerator cabinet, so that the drain pipe 10 of the present utility model is suitable for a small mounting space, and the convenience of the drain pipe 10 is improved.
When the amount of water in main pipe body 11 is small, the flow area of drain hole 114 is reduced by the movement of regulator 12; when there is little or no water in main tubular body 11, the area of drain hole 114 may be zero. That is, the adjustability of the overflow area of the drain hole 114 can not only allow the water in the main pipe body 11 to drain as quickly as possible so as not to cause the accumulation of condensed water in the main pipe body, but also prevent external air from entering the main pipe body 11 from the remaining drain area and further entering the tank body when the area of the drain hole 114 is too large, thereby improving the sealing performance of the drain pipe 10.
In some embodiments, the adjustment device 12 is configured to move in the axial direction of the main pipe body 11 under the action of the water pressure within the main pipe body 11 and the elastic restoring force of itself to adjust the overflow area of the drain hole 114.
Specifically, when the resultant force of the hydraulic pressure action in the main pipe body 11 and the elastic restoring force action of the regulator 12 is integrally directed toward the outer end port 12 of the main pipe body 11, the regulator 12 is moved toward the outer end port 11 of the main pipe body 11; when the resultant force of the hydraulic pressure action in the main pipe body 11 and the elastic restoring force action of the regulator 12 is integrally directed toward the inner end port 11 of the main pipe body 11, the regulator 12 is moved toward the inner end port 11 of the main pipe body 11. When the adjusting means 13 is displaced, the overflow area of the drain hole 114 for draining water is changed.
The adjusting device 12 can move along the axial direction of the main pipe body 11 under the action of the water pressure in the main pipe body 11 and the elastic restoring force of the adjusting device, so that the overflow area of the water discharge hole 114 on the main pipe body 11 is adjusted, a driving device such as a motor is not required to be additionally arranged, the structure of the water discharge pipe 10 is simplified, and the water discharge pipe is more suitable for small-space installation.
In some embodiments, the drain pipe 10 further includes an end cap 13, the end cap 13 being fixedly connected to the main pipe body 11 and adapted to block an outer end port 112 of the main pipe body 11. The adjusting device 12 includes a water deflector 121 and a spring 122 extending and contracting in the axial direction of the main tube body 11, and both ends of the spring 122 are fixedly connected to the water deflector 121 and the end cap 13, respectively.
When the main pipe body 11 has condensed water, the condensed water acts on the water baffle 121 to press the water baffle 121, and when the pressing force from the condensed water received by the water baffle 121 is greater than the elastic deformation of the spring 122, the spring 122 starts to contract and deform. When the condensed water in the main pipe body 11 gradually decreases, the pressing force from the condensed water received by the water deflector 121 gradually decreases, and when the pressing force from the condensed water received by the water deflector 121 is smaller than the elastic deformation action of the spring 122, the spring 122 starts to extend.
Since the end cap 13 is fixed, when the spring 122 is contracted and deformed, the water baffle 121 moves toward the outer end port 112 of the main tube body 11 by the pulling action of the spring 122; when the spring 122 is deformed by extension, the water deflector 121 is moved toward the inner end port 111 of the main tube body 11 by the urging of the spring 122.
Fig. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a drain pipe according to an embodiment of the present utility model, and fig. 4 is a schematic enlarged view of a portion a in fig. 3. Further, the circumferential surface of the water deflector 121 is fluid-tight with the inner tube wall of the main tube body 11. That is, while the splash guard 121 is axially slidable within the main tube 11 under the influence of the springs 122, the mating interface of the splash guard 121 with the main tube 11 is fluid tight, and fluid within the main tube 11 on one side of the splash guard 121 does not pass to the other side of the splash guard 121 within the main tube 11.
When the main pipe body 11 has little or no water, the water baffle 121 moves to the first position toward the inner end port 111 under the pushing action of the spring, all the hole areas of the water drain holes 114 are located at one side of the water baffle 121 toward the outer end port 112, at this time, all the hole areas of the water drain holes 114 are isolated from the inner end port 111, and air in the external environment cannot enter the inner end port through the water drain holes 114 so as to perform the refrigerator inside the water drain pipe 10, thereby realizing a better non-return function.
When the amount of water in the main pipe body 11 gradually increases, the water baffle 121 moves in the direction of the outer end port 112 by the water pressure, and a partial hole area of the drain hole 114 is positioned on the side of the water baffle 121 facing the inner end port 111, and is communicated with the inner end port 111, so that the water in the main pipe body 11 can be drained (in this case, the partial hole area forms an overflow area of the drain hole); the other part of the hole area of the drain hole 114, through which outside air does not enter the inner end port 111, is located at the side of the water deflector 121 toward the outer end port 112, isolated from the inner end port 112.
When the amount of water in the main pipe body 11 is sufficiently large, the water baffle 121 moves toward the outer end port 112 by the water pressure, and all the hole areas of the drain holes 114 are located on the side of the water baffle 121 toward the inner end port 111, and all the hole areas belong to the overflow areas of the drain holes 114.
Specifically, the water deflector 121 may be made of a material having a certain deformability and a slightly high hardness, such as rubber, silica gel, or the like.
In some embodiments, the drain hole 114 is gradually widened from the inner end port 111 of the main pipe body 11 to the outer end port 112 of the main pipe body 11, so that the flow area of the drain hole 114 is increased when the water baffle 121 moves towards the outer end port 112 by a unit distance, and a large amount of condensed water in the main pipe body 11 can be discharged more timely and smoothly.
Specifically, the drain hole 114 may have a triangular shape with a tip end directed toward the inner end port 111 of the main tube body 11.
In some alternative embodiments, the drain holes 114 may be other regular or irregular shapes as desired.
In some embodiments, the number of the drain holes 114 is plural, and the plurality of drain holes 114 are uniformly and intermittently arranged along the circumferential direction of the preset section 113 so as to more precisely adjust the total overflow area of the plurality of drain holes 114 according to the amount of water in the main pipe body 11.
In some embodiments, the first ends of the plurality of drainage apertures 114 adjacent the direction of the inner end port 111 are each on a first circumference concentric with the main tube body 11. The second ends of the plurality of drain holes 114 in the direction adjacent to the outer end port 112 are each on a second circumference concentric with the main tube body 11. That is, in the moving direction of the water blocking plate 121, the first ends of the plurality of water discharge holes 114 adjacent to the inner end port 111 are flush, and the second ends of the plurality of water discharge holes 114 adjacent to the outer end port 112 are also flush, so that the total flow area of the plurality of water discharge holes 114 can be adjusted more precisely according to the amount of water in the main pipe body 11.
Fig. 5 is another schematic structural exploded view of a drain pipe according to an embodiment of the present utility model, and fig. 6 is a schematic enlarged view of a portion B in fig. 5. In some embodiments, a clamping structure 115 is provided on the peripheral wall of the main tube body 11 adjacent to the outer end port 112. The peripheral wall of the end cover 13 is provided with a clamping column 131, and the clamping column 131 is clamped in the clamping structure 115, so that the end cover 13 is fixedly connected to the main pipe body 11. That is, the main pipe body 11 and the end cap 13 are separated, and they can be assembled together by means of a snap-fit, the assembly process is very simple.
Further, the snap-fit structure 115 is an L-shaped snap-fit groove extending through the peripheral wall of the main tube body 11 in the radial direction of the main tube body 11, the L-shaped snap-fit groove including a first section 1151 extending axially inward from the outer end port 112 of the main tube body 11, and a second section 1152 extending from the extending end of the first section 1151 toward the peripheral direction of the main tube body 11. The clamping post 131 is configured to operably clamp into a first section 1151 of the L-shaped clamping groove and then rotate into a second section 1152 of the L-shaped clamping groove along the axial direction of the main tubular body 11. Therefore, the second section 1151 and the clamping post 131 can be matched to limit the relative movement of the end cover 13 and the main pipe body 11 in the axial direction, namely, the freedom degree of the end cover 13 in the axial direction is limited, the end cover 13 is prevented from falling off from the main pipe body 11, and the stability and reliability of the assembly of the end cover 13 are improved.
Further, a downwardly recessed limiting recess 1153 is provided in the wall of the second segment 1152 adjacent the outer end port 112. The bottom of joint post 131 is equipped with downward convex back-off 132, after joint post 131 card income joint structure 115, back-off 132 restriction is in spacing pit 1153 to restrict the relative movement of end cover 13 and main body 11 in the circumference of main body 11, limit the ascending degree of freedom of end cover 13 promptly, avoid end cover 13 to rotate for main body 11, further improved the steadiness and the reliability of end cover 13 assembly.
