Description

A sewage trap

The present invention relates to a sewage trap that is installed at the entrance of a sewer pipe and filters hair and dirt. In particular, it can maintain the drainage function even if hair gets tangled and clogged, and when the sewage trap is maintained, hair and dirt caught in the sewage trap are removed. It is designed to be easily removed from the sewage trap.

In a typical building, water pipes and sewer pipes are connected, drinking water and household water needed for daily life are supplied through the water pipes, and domestic sewage generated in daily life is drained out of the building through sewer pipes.

According to these structural features, sewage pipes are branched from the floor slab of the building and extended to the bathroom floor, washbasin, and sink so that domestic sewage can be easily drained. Sewage traps are installed on the bathroom floor, washbasin, and sink to collect household sewage. is drained into the sewer pipe through a sewage trap.

In domestic sewage, not only sewage but also pollutants are included in the sewage depending on the use of the household water and are discharged into the sewer pipe.

Typically, domestic sewage drained from a sink includes not only sewage but also food residues, and domestic sewage drained from a bathroom includes pollutants such as hair, viscous phlegm produced and discharged from the body, and nasal mucus. The sewage trap installed at the entrance of the sewer pipe becomes clogged by the pollutants contained in it.

In addition, the conventional sewage trap has a funnel-shaped structure, so the water pressure increases as the sewage that flows into the upper part of the sewage trap drains to the bottom. As the water pressure of the sewage increases, hair, etc. caught in the sewage trap is pushed out by the water pressure of the sewage. Hair passes through a sewage trap and enters the sewer pipe, and hair that enters the sewer pipe often clogs the sewer pipe.

In particular, in the case of sewage traps installed on the bathroom floor or bathtub floor, where a lot of hair is discharged, if hair gets caught in the sewage trap, viscous impurities such as phlegm and snot stick to the trapped hair, causing the sewage trap to become easily clogged. has a drawback.

Because hair is thin and long, while passing through the sewage trap, the middle of the hair gets caught on the structure of the sewage trap. If there is a lot of hair that gets caught on the structure of the sewage trap, it gets twisted and tangled into a net-like structure, causing the sewage trap. It will be blocked.

In this state, if pollutants such as phlegm, runny nose, etc. are discharged, the pollutants attach to the tangled hair and block the sewage trap, preventing smooth drainage of household sewage.

In this case, the user repairs the sewage trap by disconnecting the sewage trap and removing the clogged hair and dirt. However, as explained earlier, the hair gets tangled and blocks the sewage trap, so there is the inconvenience of having to untangle or tear out the tangled hair. . In particular, when cleaning the bathroom, there is a disadvantage that the stomach is easily upset due to hair blocking the sewage trap and impurities such as phlegm and snot attached to the hair.

In Figure 1, the sewage trap 100 according to the present invention is shown as being mounted on the floor of a bathroom. However, as described above, the sewage trap 100 of the present invention is installed on other sewer pipes such as the bottom of a bathtub or the bottom of a washbasin and sink. It can also be mounted at the entrance. Below, a representative example of a sewage trap mounted on the floor of a bathroom is explained.

As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the sewage trap 100 is installed to match the level of the tile 1 attached and fixed to the floor of the bathroom, and domestic sewage flowing down along the bathroom floor flows toward the sewage trap 100. flows in and flows in.

The sewage trap 100 includes a frame 110 fixed to the floor of the bathroom, a strainer 120 located inside the frame 110 that filters hair 10 and dirt, and a cylindrical strainer open at the top ( A support 130 is positioned to support 120 and can be pulled out to the top of the frame 110, and is mounted on the support 130 to be located at the top of the strainer 120 and rotates upward to cover the inside of the strainer 120. It opens and rotates downward to close the opening of the strainer 120, and is located inside the lid 140, through which household sewage on the bathroom floor passes, and the frame 110, and supports the cone portion 125 of the strainer 120. The main unit includes a stand (150).

The household sewage on the bathroom floor flows toward the sewage trap (100), passes through the lid (140), and flows into the strainer (120). Among the household sewage that flows into the strainer (120), the sewage passes through the strainer (120) but together with the sewage. The introduced hair 10 and dirt are filtered through the strainer 120 and are located inside the strainer 120.

At this time, as the sewage passes through the strainer 120, the hair 10 is wound around the comb 125 of the strainer 120 according to the flow of sewage. In this way, as the hair 10 is wound around the cone part 125 of the strainer 120, the hair 10 is tangled in a cone shape like the cone part 125. As the hair 10 becomes tangled in a cone shape like the cone part 125, when the lid 140 is opened and the supporter 130 is pulled out to the top of the frame 110 and turned over, the hair and hair tangled in a cone shape are removed. Materials easily fall out of the strainer 120 and are discharged without being caught.

In addition, the sewage trap 100 according to the present invention maintains the strainer 120 at a predetermined height by the support 130, so that even if a large amount of hair 10 and sewage accumulates on the bottom of the strainer 120, the strainer 120 is maintained at a predetermined height by the support 130. ), or through the upper part of the cone part 125 where the hair is not tangled, the drainage function can be maintained for a fairly long time.

And, as the bottom of the strainer 120 is positioned in a wide spread state, the domestic sewage flowing into the strainer 120 is also widely dispersed and passes through the strainer 120, and the water pressure applied to the strainer 120 is distributed accordingly. Therefore, it is possible to solve the problem of hair passing through a strainer due to high water pressure and blocking the sewer pipe, as in the past.

Below, the sewage trap according to the present invention configured as described above will be described in detail.

As shown in Figures 3 to 6, a circular hole 113 is formed in the center of the square upper surface 111 of the frame 110, and the bottom and side surfaces of the frame 110 are open.

The support 150 inserted into the open side of the frame 110 constructed in this way is seated on the bottom edge 115 of the frame 110 and is positioned on the support 130 through the circular hole 113 of the upper surface 111. It is inserted into the inside of the frame 110 and seated on the support 150, and the strainer 120 is seated on the support 130 while the lid 140 mounted on the support 130 is rotated upward and the lid ( When 140) is closed, the upper surface 111 of the frame 110 and the lid 140 are located on the same plane, and household sewage on the bathroom floor is filtered through the through hole 141 formed in the lid 140 into the strainer 120. flows into the interior of

Here, the support 130 has an upper ring 131 and a lower ring 133, and the upper ring 131 and the lower ring 133 are connected by a plurality of connecting rods 135 positioned vertically.

The lid 140 has a disk structure, and a clip 143 mounted on the upper ring 131 of the support 130 is fixed to one side of the bottom of the lid 140. Therefore, when the clip 143 of the lid 140 is coupled to the upper ring 131 of the support 130, the lid 140 rotates upward or from upward to downward around the clip 143 to support the support 130. It is seated on the upper ring 131 of.

Meanwhile, the strainer 120 may be made of stainless steel or flexible cloth. Below, the strainer made of stainless steel will first be described in detail.

The strainer 120 has a cylindrical structure open at the top. In addition, an outwardly curved curved portion 123 is formed at the upper edge of the strainer 120, and when the strainer 120 is placed inside the support 130, the curved portion 123 of the strainer 120 is formed in the upper ring 131. It surrounds and is seated inside the support 130.

Cones 125 are formed at multiple points on the bottom surface 121 of the strainer 120, and as shown in FIG. 2, the cones 125 of high or low height form the bottom surface 121 of the strainer 120. ) is formed in Here, the height and position of the cone part 125 and the point where the cone part 125 is formed can be changed in various ways.

The conical part 125 has a conical structure that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and when hair 10 along with household sewage flows into the inside of the strainer 120 through the through hole 141 formed in the lid 140, The sewage is widely distributed on the bottom surface of the strainer 120 and then wraps around the cone 125 in the form of a whirlpool rotating in one direction under the influence of the water pressure of the sewage passing through the strainer 120 and the rotation of the earth. It passes through the strainer 120 and is drained.

In this way, as the sewage flows around the cone part 125 and is drained, the hair 10 flowing in with the sewage also wraps around the cone part 125, and several hairs 10 surround the cone part 125. become entangled with each other.

As shown in Figure 4, the function of drainage is somewhat reduced as the hair 10 wraps around the cone part 125 and becomes tangled, but sewage is discharged from the side of the strainer 120 and the cone part where the hair 10 is not tangled. As the water is drained through the upper part of (125), the drainage function can be maintained without losing it.

However, when a greater amount of hair 10 and dirt gets caught in the strainer 120 and the drainage function weakens, the user must remove the hair 10 and dirt caught in the sewage trap 100.

At this time, as shown in FIG. 5, when the support 130 located inside the frame 110 is pulled upward through the circular hole 113 formed on the upper surface of the frame 110, the strainer located inside the support 130 (120) is also discharged out of the frame (110), and when the lid (140) is turned upward and the strainer (120) is opened and the support (130) is turned over and shaken, the tangled hair ( 10) is discharged downward without obstruction. This means that when the hair is tangled around the conical cone part 125 and turned over, the tangled hair has an upper-lower constriction structure, so that the tangled hair 10 is easily removed from the cone-shaped cone part 125 without getting caught. is discharged.

When mounting the strainer 120 that discharges hair 10 and dirt on the frame 110, cover the lid 140 and attach the support 130 to the circular hole 113 formed in the upper surface 111 of the frame 110. Insert and position.

Meanwhile, Figures 2 and 3 show that a stand 150 is provided inside the frame 110, but the stand 150 can be configured by excluding or additionally adding it depending on the material of the strainer 120. there is.

As described above, if the strainer 120 is made of stainless steel and has high rigidity, the sewage trap 100 of the present invention can be constructed without the pedestal 150. However, as shown in FIG. 6, the strainer 120 is If it is made of a flexible cloth material made of thread, a support 150 that can maintain the shape of the strainer 120 is required.

The support 150 includes a square outer edge 151, a strainer support portion 153 extending inward of the outer edge 151, and a conical support portion protruding upward at multiple points of the strainer support portion 153. (155) and a frame support portion 157 that protrudes upward at multiple points of the outer edge 151.

When the stand 150 is inserted into the side of the frame 110, the outer frame 110 is seated on the bottom edge 115 of the frame 110. At this time, the frame support portion 157 supports the bottom of the upper surface 111 of the frame 110, thereby preventing the support 150 from moving in the vertical direction due to water pressure.

On the other hand, as the conical support portion 155 is located inside the lower ring 133 of the support 130, it pushes up the strainer 120 seated on the inside of the support 130, and the strainer made of flexible cloth ( 120) As the cone portion support portion 155 supports the strainer 120 from below, cone portions 125 are formed at multiple points.

Here, as a strainer made of flexible cloth, a strainer such as an onion mesh or stocking may be used, and the strainer of the onion mesh or stocking may be used once and then discarded, providing convenience in removing contaminants.

As described above, the cone portion 125 formed on the strainer 120 performs the function of filtering and draining the hair 10 and impurities.

In this way, the sewage trap 100 according to the present invention can effectively filter out the pollutants by using a filter made of stainless steel or a flexible cloth material suitable for the type of pollutants drained together with the sewage.
