Definitions
- the invention relates to a stench trap comprising:
- a stench trap is generally known and is used for airtight sealing of an outlet pipe so that the unpleasant odours from the sewer cannot enter a space via a drain.
- the water seal is obtained by providing a U-shaped channel in the stench trap so that water can collect in the bend of the U-shape and can thereby close the channel in airtight manner.
- Such a water seal also ensures that no odours enter the space in the case of overpressure in the sewer. It is however essential for sufficient water to be present in the stench trap, since the overpressure otherwise forces the water out and odours can nevertheless enter the space.
- This water seal height is typically 5 centimetres. This height ensures that the stench trap retains its sealing function for a determined period of time. During this time the water will evaporate until the water level drops below the U-bend and air can flow via the stench trap.
- the height of a stench trap will also be more than 5 centimetres. It is however desirable to provide a flatter stench trap while nevertheless retaining the same air-sealing function.
- a stench trap according to the preamble which stench trap is characterized by a flexible unidirectional seal arranged in the channel close to the passage opening.
- the unidirectional seal prevents unpleasant odours from the sewer being able to pass through the stench trap. Because the passage opening is further provided close to the underside of the downward directed wall, water will collect at the passage opening, as in a usual stench trap. However, if the water were to be too low for a usual stench trap and a direct connection were to occur between the inflow opening and the outflow opening, the unidirectional seal will nevertheless close the channel and prevent unpleasant odours passing through.
- the unidirectional seal further ensures that the stench trap is sealed in the case of overpressure in the sewer.
- the unidirectional seal is arranged close to the passage opening, the water will preferably flow through the seal from below.
- the seal itself can then close by itself due to gravitational force.
- a seal in the form of a flexible silicone flap will drop down automatically and thereby close the passage.
- the flexible unidirectional seal comprises a first flexible flap arranged on a wall part of the channel.
- the first flexible flap preferably lies with the free end against the wall of the channel.
- the flexible flap has the advantage that it adjusts easily to the shape of the surface against which it lies. Possible contaminants will hereby not immediately affect the operation of the seal. Nor will hairs and the like get caught behind a flexible flap.
- a flexible flap can in addition be easily formed as a part punched from a sheet of flexible material. This is cost-effective.
- a second flexible flap is arranged on a wall part of the channel opposite the first flexible flap, and the free ends of the first and second flexible flaps lie against each other.
- the two flaps can also be connected to each other along the edges so that a type of sleeve is formed.
- the free ends of the flexible flaps lie against each other, whereby the contact surfaces are the same and a good seal is present.
- a flexible flap lies for instance against a wall of another material, it may be the case that the seal is not optimal due to the difference in surface structure of the wall and the flexible flap.
- a part of the flexible flaps lies in a lower position than the outflow opening.
- a part of the channel preferably lies in a lower position than the outflow opening.
- the passage opening more preferably lies at least partially below the outflow opening.
- a U-shaped channel is hereby obtained which can provide a stench trap function as soon as water or another liquid is present in the channel.
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective cross-sectional view of a first embodiment 1 according to the invention.
- a housing 5 is provided under a shower drain with a bottom 2 and upright walls 3 with flanges 4.
- Housing 5 is provided on the upper side with an inflow opening 6 (see also figure 2 ) at the transition to bottom 2.
- a downward directed wall 7 is provided adjacently of inflow opening 6.
- a passage opening 8 Provided on the underside of the downward directed wall 7 is a passage opening 8 through which water can flow to outflow opening 9.
- the downward directed wall 7 connects via an intermediate housing with cover 10 to outflow opening 9 so that a channel is formed from inflow opening 6 via passage opening 8 to outflow opening 9.
- Cover 10 can be removed so that access can be gained to outflow opening 9 for the purpose of for instance cleaning the outlet pipe lying behind.
- a unidirectional seal in the form of a flexible flap 11 is arranged close to passage opening 8.
- Flexible flap 11 is attached on the upper side to pins 12 on downward directed wall 7. The free end of flexible flap 11 lies against a bottom part 13 and closes thereagainst.
- housing 5 can be easily removed by sliding the housing in the direction of the outlet pipe. It is however also possible to make this embodiment a fixed part of the shower drain. In such a fixed embodiment it is recommended that flexible flap 11 is exchangeable so that it can be replaced in the case of wear.
- FIGS. 3A and 3B show a second embodiment 20 of a stench trap according to the invention.
- Stench trap 20 has a housing 21 with an inflow opening 22 and an outflow opening 23 connecting to an outlet pipe 24.
- inflow opening 22 Hanging adjacently of inflow opening 22 is an intermediate wall 25 which on the underside is adjacent to a passage opening 26. Between the downward directed intermediate wall 25 and housing 21 a unidirectional seal of two flexible flaps 27, 28 is provided close to passage opening 26.

Abstract
- a housing with an inflow opening and an outflow opening lying in a lower position during use;
- a downward directed wall arranged in the housing and having a passage opening close to the underside, wherein a channel is formed from the inflow opening via the passage opening to the outflow opening by the housing and the downward directed wall; and a flexible unidirectional seal arranged in the channel close to the passage opening.
Description
- The invention relates to a stench trap comprising:
- a housing with an inflow opening and an outflow opening lying in a lower position during use;
- a downward directed wall arranged in the housing and having a passage opening close to the underside, wherein a channel is formed from the inflow opening via the passage opening to the outflow opening by the housing and the downward directed wall.
- A stench trap is generally known and is used for airtight sealing of an outlet pipe so that the unpleasant odours from the sewer cannot enter a space via a drain.
- It is usual to provide a water seal in the stench trap so that air cannot pass through the stench trap but water or another liquid can flow freely via the stench trap to an outlet pipe. The water seal is obtained by providing a U-shaped channel in the stench trap so that water can collect in the bend of the U-shape and can thereby close the channel in airtight manner.
- Such a water seal also ensures that no odours enter the space in the case of overpressure in the sewer. It is however essential for sufficient water to be present in the stench trap, since the overpressure otherwise forces the water out and odours can nevertheless enter the space.
- In order to comply with set standards it is necessary to adhere to a certain water seal height. This water seal height is typically 5 centimetres. This height ensures that the stench trap retains its sealing function for a determined period of time. During this time the water will evaporate until the water level drops below the U-bend and air can flow via the stench trap.
- Because of this water seal height of at least 5 centimetres the height of a stench trap will also be more than 5 centimetres. It is however desirable to provide a flatter stench trap while nevertheless retaining the same air-sealing function.
- This objective is achieved with a stench trap according to the preamble, which stench trap is characterized by a flexible unidirectional seal arranged in the channel close to the passage opening.
- The unidirectional seal prevents unpleasant odours from the sewer being able to pass through the stench trap. Because the passage opening is further provided close to the underside of the downward directed wall, water will collect at the passage opening, as in a usual stench trap. However, if the water were to be too low for a usual stench trap and a direct connection were to occur between the inflow opening and the outflow opening, the unidirectional seal will nevertheless close the channel and prevent unpleasant odours passing through.
- The unidirectional seal further ensures that the stench trap is sealed in the case of overpressure in the sewer.
- Because the unidirectional seal is arranged close to the passage opening, the water will preferably flow through the seal from below. The seal itself can then close by itself due to gravitational force. A seal in the form of a flexible silicone flap will drop down automatically and thereby close the passage.
- In a preferred embodiment of the stench trap according to the invention the flexible unidirectional seal comprises a first flexible flap arranged on a wall part of the channel.
- The first flexible flap preferably lies with the free end against the wall of the channel.
- The flexible flap has the advantage that it adjusts easily to the shape of the surface against which it lies. Possible contaminants will hereby not immediately affect the operation of the seal. Nor will hairs and the like get caught behind a flexible flap.
- A flexible flap can in addition be easily formed as a part punched from a sheet of flexible material. This is cost-effective.
- In another embodiment of the stench trap according to the invention a second flexible flap is arranged on a wall part of the channel opposite the first flexible flap, and the free ends of the first and second flexible flaps lie against each other. The two flaps can also be connected to each other along the edges so that a type of sleeve is formed.
- In this embodiment the free ends of the flexible flaps lie against each other, whereby the contact surfaces are the same and a good seal is present. When a flexible flap lies for instance against a wall of another material, it may be the case that the seal is not optimal due to the difference in surface structure of the wall and the flexible flap.
- In another preferred embodiment of the stench trap according to the invention a part of the flexible flaps lies in a lower position than the outflow opening.
- Because a part of the flexible flap(s) lies below the outflow opening, water will normally lie against the flexible flap(s). This water presses against the flaps so that an improved seal is obtained.
- A part of the channel preferably lies in a lower position than the outflow opening. The passage opening more preferably lies at least partially below the outflow opening. A U-shaped channel is hereby obtained which can provide a stench trap function as soon as water or another liquid is present in the channel.
- These and other features of the invention are further elucidated with reference to the accompanying drawings.
