Abstract

A drain valve for a bathroom sink is provided to prevent a drain pipe from clogging by hair and other falling substance, and to facilitate the removal of hair without disassembling the drain pipe, by filtering hair and falling substances at a mid-lower part of the drain valve. A drain valve for a bathroom sink, which moves up at an inlet of a drain port of the bathroom sink to fill or drain water, comprises a rim(3), and a vertical semicircular groove(4). The rim, which is made of rubber, PVC(Poly Vinyl Chloride), or wire, is attached at a mid-lower part of a drain valve body to filter hair. The vertical semicircular groove is contoured at a bottom of a lower part of the drain valve body to facilitate operation with an operating lever shaft without interfering drainage of water.

The present invention relates to a drain valve for a basin,

A washbasin is a device installed in a bathroom or a toilet that traps water to wash a washbasin or head, and after use, drains the water through a drain valve.

The washbasin consists of a faucet that supplies tap water to a container that can hold water, a drain valve that sends the contained water, a working lever set that operates the drain valve up and down to open and close it, and a drain pipe that delivers water. do.

The traditional way of operating the drain valve is

It is fixed to the operating lever by the shaft to open and close by operating up and down in the drain pipe.There is no hair catching device, so it is caught on the drain valve and the operating lever connecting shaft. There is a hassle to separate, and the hair passing through this may accumulate in a specific part of the lower drain pipe and block the drain pipe.

In addition, the recently designed drain valve compensates for the disadvantages of the conventional method, and it has a protrusion on the body of the drain valve to catch the hair, but it does not seem to have a high probability, and it is connected to the operation lever installed at the bottom of the drain valve to easily remove the drain valve. The vertical circular hole was removed and the horizontal disk-shaped device was placed on the operating lever. However, the drainage flow can be slowed by acting to reduce the drain hole by the disk area.

Since there is no hair catching device at the drain valve and its lower part, it is caught on the drain valve and the operating lever connecting shaft or it goes down to the sewer and is blocked by the specific part of the drain pipe. To remove the hair on the actuating lever shaft, it is necessary to separate and reassemble the drain pipe and all the components of the actuating lever, but there are considerable difficulties due to structural and positional problems and unsanitary. In addition, if the hair passing through this place is deposited in a specific part of the lower drain pipe and the drain pipe is blocked, it may cause a problem of time and cost that the professional worker needs to drill the sewer. In order to solve this problem, a device is provided so that the hair can be caught completely at the lower and lower ends of the drain valve body located at the top of the actuating lever shaft.

For easy removal of hair caught in the drain valve, the bottom of the drain valve is fitted with a vertical open semicircle that minimizes the flow of water so that it rests on the axis of the actuating lever so that other components can be removed or simply pulled up without the aid. Just do it.

The user can easily remove the hanging hair by pulling up the drain valve at any time when it is determined that the cleaning is necessary based on the flow rate of the water, and the cleaned drain valve is naturally seated on the operating lever shaft by simply putting it back into the drain hole.

The configuration of the drain valve for the basin according to the present invention will be described in detail through the accompanying drawings. 1 is a view illustrating a configuration in which a drain valve according to the present invention is installed in a wash basin, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a drain valve for a wash basin according to the present invention.

Details of FIG. 1 are as follows, and explain the operation of the drain valve for the basin according to the present invention configured as described above. One axis of the moving member is positioned between the operation lever and the drain pipe so that the drain valve can be moved up and down within the drain hole, and the groove of the lower part of the drain valve (4 in FIG. 2) Install to match. And the drain valve is located at the inlet of the drain while the operation lever and the drain pipe are installed in the wash basin. With the drain valve installed on the wash basin, the user moves the operating lever upwards or pushes the top of the drain valve by hand to allow water to collect in the wash basin. The head of the drain valve blocks the top of the metal rim installed in the washbasin to allow water to collect. If the drainage water is used and drained, press the operation lever and move it downward to move the groove supporting the lower part of the drain valve upward and the head blocking the metal frame of the washbasin will open upward. The dead water goes down to the drain. At this time, the hair contained in the discarded water is caught by a circular rim (ring) (3 in FIG. 2) installed at the lower and lower portions of the drain valve, thereby preventing the lower drain pipe from clogging. With the drain valve moved upward to remove the hair caught on the circular rim mounted on the lower and lower part of the drain valve body, the user simply grabs the head and pulls it out of the drain without using an auxiliary tool. Simply separated from the drain. Simply remove the hair caught in the middle and lower part of the drain valve body separated from the drain and put it back into the drain.

The effect of the drainage valve for the basin according to the present invention can prevent the clogging of the drain pipe by the accumulated hair, and easy to mount and install for cleaning, such as hair removal on the drain valve.

In addition, it is necessary to produce a separate and neat product by the present invention when making a new product, but even if the existing product is already installed and installed by using this principle, it is possible to prevent waste of national resources by simply modifying it at low cost or by the user. Can be.

Claims (1)

In the drain valve installed at the inlet of the basin drainage to hold water or drain water, attach a rim made of rubber, PVC or wire to the lower and middle of the drain valve body to catch the hair. A drain valve, characterized in that it creates a vertical semi-circular groove in the bottom of the valve to facilitate operation with the actuating lever shaft and does not interfere with water discharge.
