Description

Water pipe freeze prevention device {APPARATUS FOR PREVENTING WINTER DAMAGE OF WATER PIPE}

The present invention relates to a water supply pipe, and more particularly, in winter, while sliding the sliding member together with a movable wing member equipped with a heating wire during the winter season, the water supply is uniformly applied to the water pipe where freezing and freezing are expected to be thawed. It is to provide a water pipe freeze protection device to guide the smooth flow of tap water in the pipe to prevent the water pipe is broken by freezing.

In general, water supplies supplying water for daily living are intake facilities to collect the necessary water, water supply facilities to the demand sites, water purification facilities to improve and purify the water quality, and drainage facilities to be transported to the city with the required water pressure and quantity and drained to the vicinity of the consumers' residence. It consists of a water supply system that supplies pipes to the faucet in the user's site or building. All these devices are organically connected by pipes of different diameters depending on the water supply and the water source.

As such, the water supply pipe is buried in the ground in order to supply tap water from the drainage system, but the structure made of metal material having good thermal conductivity is particularly difficult in winter and cold weather, or water remaining inside the water supply pipe cannot freeze. have.

In order to solve such a problem, a method of wrapping the outer circumferential surface with a heat insulating material made of styrofoam has been widely used.

However, the water pipes buried underground have the risk of freezing by increasing the volume of water as the water freezes when the temperature decreases, especially when the ground is wet. There is a problem that is difficult to cope.

Therefore, when the water pipes are frozen during the winter season, there is an urgent need for a device capable of smoothly maintaining the flow of tap water by quickly thawing without replacing the water pipes.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-described conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a device capable of supplying necessary heat to the outer circumferential surface of a water supply pipe during the winter season, where freezing or freezing is expected. It is intended to induce smooth flow of tap water by quickly thawing water pipes.

In addition, the present invention is to prevent the water pipe freezes due to the cold weather temperature and cold waves in winter, to reduce the economical costs of the replacement of the water pipes caused by freezing water pipes and the manpower, time, and expenses There is another purpose.

The problem solving means of the present invention for achieving the above object is a fixed member formed in a curved surface to surround a portion of the upper surface of the water supply pipe, a sliding member reciprocating along the guide rail of the fixing member, and the sliding member on both sides A water supply further comprising a movable wing member assembled with a heating wire for generating heat required for a water supply pipe, and a remote controller for controlling the operation of the movable wing member and the sliding member through wired or wireless. Tube freeze protection is provided.

The water pipe freeze protection device of the present invention thaws while applying uniform heat to the water pipe that is expected to freeze and freeze while reciprocating the sliding member with the movable wing member equipped with a heating wire to the outer peripheral surface of the water pipe during the winter season. Accordingly, the tap water in the water supply pipe can be smoothly maintained, thereby preventing the water supply pipe from being broken due to freezing.

As such, the present invention is very economical as the maintenance cost is greatly reduced by significantly reducing the occurrence of breakage due to freezing of the water pipe during the winter season.
