DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

(9) Hereinafter, an exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

(10) As showed in FIG. 1, FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, an exploded view, a stereogram and a cross-sectional view showing a first embodiment for a toilet plunger structure according to the present invention are respectively disclosed. The toilet plunger structure mainly comprises a shell (1), a smasher (2), a gas pipe (3) and a dredge connector (4).

(11) The shell (1) is provided with a handle (11), a trigger (12), an accommodating slot (13), a positioning slot (14), a joint part (15) and an auxiliary accommodation space (16). The handle (11) has a pivot member (111) pivotally connected to the trigger (12) and an elastic member (112) disposed between the handle (11) and the trigger (12) for pushing against the trigger (12) outwardly. The trigger (12) has a push part (121) accommodated in the shell (1). The accommodating slot (13) corresponds to the push part (121) for accommodating a gas container (5) and has a lid (131) actively disposed outside the shell (1). The positioning slot (14) communicates with the accommodating slot (13) and the joint part (15) communicates with the positioning slot (14). The auxiliary accommodation space (16) is used to accommodate at least one gas container (5) and further has a cover (161).

(12) The smasher (2) is provided with a positioning seat (21) accommodated in the positioning slot (14) of the shell (1) and having a positioning hole (211) corresponding to an opening (51) of the gas container (5), a firing pin (22) disposed in the positioning hole (211) and an elastic supporting member (23) between an inner edge of the positioning hole (211) and the firing pin (22). Preferably, the positioning seat (21) is made of a soft material and has an air-tight effect.

(13) The gas pipe (3) is disposed in the joint part (15) of the shell (1) and provided with a connecting pipe (31) having a connecting seat (311) connected to the positioning seat (21) of the smasher (2) for fixation, a protecting pipe (32) sleeved on the connecting pipe (31) and having one end connected to the connecting seat (311) for fixation, and a connecting member (33) connected to the other end of the protecting pipe (32). One end of the connecting pipe (31) is protruded from the connecting member (33).

(14) The dredge connector (4) is provided with a connecting part (41) for correspondingly connecting the connecting member (33) of the gas pipe (3), a plugging part (42) disposed at a bottom of the connecting part (41), a though hole (43) passing through the connecting part (41) to the plugging part (42) for receiving the connecting pipe (31), and a cup (44) outside the plugging part (42) for preventing air leaks and achieving an air-tight effect.

(15) In a practical use of the present invention, the plugging part (42) of the dredge connector (4) is correspondingly stuffed into a water pipe or a toilet to be unclogged. The gas container (5) is disposed in the accommodating slot (13) of the shell (1), and the lid (131) is covered on the accommodating slot (13). When the trigger (12) is pressed by a user applying a force to compress the elastic member (112), the push part (121) of the trigger (12) pushes the gas container (5) towards the positioning seat (21) of the smasher (2), so that the opening (51) of the gas container (5) is inserted into the positioning hole (211) to compress the elastic supporting member (23) and further hit the firing pin (22) to pierce into the opening (51) of the gas container (5) as shown in FIG. 4. When the trigger (12) is released by the user, the elastic member (112) rebounds and pushes the trigger (12) outward, and the elastic supporting member (23) also pushes the opening (51) of the gas container (5) away from the firing pin (22). Therefore, the air contained in the gas container (5) instantaneously passes from the opening (51) through the positioning hole (211) to the connecting pipe (31) of the gas pipe (3) and instantaneously ejected from the connecting pipe (31) to the though hole (43) of the dredge connector (4) so as to achieve the function of clearing the plugged water pipe or the toilet.

(16) Referring to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, an exploded view showing a second embodiment and an exploded view showing a third embodiment for a toilet plunger structure according to the present invention are respectively disclosed. The gas pipe (3) is further provided with an extension pipe (34) connected to the connecting member (33) at one end thereof to increase the length of the gas pipe (3). Furthermore, the extension pipe (34) is connected with another connecting member (33) at the other end thereof for connection with the connecting part (41) of the dredge connector (4).

(17) As showed in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the exploded view showing a third embodiment for a toilet plunger structure according to the present invention and a cross-sectional view showing the third embodiment for the toilet plunger structure in assembly according to the present invention are disclosed. The dredge connector (4) is further provided with a shield blade (45) outside the plugging part (42). When the plugged toilet is unclogged, the shield blade (45) prevents the water in the toilet from splashing outward.

(18) Additionally, referring to FIG. 8, a stereogram showing the third embodiment for the toilet plunger structure in assembly according to the present invention is revealed. The dredge connector (4) is further connected with a storage seat (6) having a containing groove (61) for correspondingly receiving and positioning the dredge connector (4).

(19) Compared with the technique available now, the present invention has the following advantages:

(20) 1. The present invention can easily smash the opening of the gas container to increase the convenience of use by pressing the trigger and by the push part of the trigger pushing the gas container to make the firing pin hit and pierce into the opening of the gas container.

(21) 2. After the trigger is pressed to smash the opening of the gas container, the air contained in the gas container can be ejected instantaneously for unclogging when the trigger is released, so the present invention prevents affecting the air pressure due to air leaks during the operation and achieves an excellent unclogging effect.
