Embodiment 1

[0034] Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIGS. 2 to 4.

[0035] The present invention provides an anti-odor, anti-blocking and easy-to-clean vertical-drainage floor drain, which includes a base 1, a drainage cover 2 and a cover plate 3, wherein a drainage pipe 4 is arranged in the base 1, a drainage channel 5 is formed between the drainage pipe 4 and the base 1, and a drainage port 6 is simultaneously arranged at the upper end of the base 1; the drainage cover 2 is detachably connected above the drainage pipe 4 to form a drainage cavity 7 and a water inlet 8 communicated with the drainage pipe 4; the cover plate 3 is placed at the drainage port 6 of the base 1, and forms a drainage gap 9 with the base 1; the drainage cover 2 includes a cover body 10 and a sleeve 11, wherein a plurality of brackets 12 are arranged between the cover body 10 and the sleeve 11, the sleeve 11 is provided with an installation groove 13, and is detachably connected with the drainage pipe 4 on the base 1 through the installation groove 13; [0036] specifically, the upper port of the drainage pipe 4 is located in the drainage channel 5, the water inlet 8 is located in the lower half of the drainage channel 5, with a height lower than that of the drainage port 6 and the upper port of the drainage pipe 4; and the drainage port 6, the drainage gap 9, the drainage channel 5, the water inlet 8, the drainage cavity 7 and the drainage pipe 4 are communicated; [0037] when the floor drain is used, the base 1 is embedded in the ground, the top of the base 1 and the upper surface of the cover plate 3 are flush with the surface of the ground, and the bottom of the drainage pipe 4 is connected and communicated with a sewage pipe; [0038] therefore, when the floor drain drains, the ground sewage enters the floor drain through the drainage port 6, then the sewage passes through the drainage gap 9, the drainage channel 5, the water inlet 8 and enters the drainage cavity 7 in turn, then the sewage in the drainage cavity 7 enters the drainage pipe 4, and the sewage in the drainage pipe 4 is discharged into the sewage pipe through the drainage pipe 4, thus realizing ground drainage.

[0039] In the process of sewage discharge, when the water level in the drainage cavity 7 is higher than the opening at the upper end of the drainage pipe 4, the liquid will flow downward from the drainage pipe 4 under the gravity of the liquid, and the water flow will continue and form a seal at the upper end of the opening of the drainage pipe 4. Once the water flows away, a local vacuum will appear at the upper part of the drainage cavity 7 of the drainage cover 2, and the sewage outside the drainage cover 2 will be continuously pressed into the drainage cover 2 under the action of atmospheric pressure, thus generating bell-type siphon phenomenon and realizing rapid drainage; [0040] and in the process of drainage, long hair will stay above the gap of the cover plate 3, and solid dirt in sewage will be deposited at the bottom of the drainage channel 5; [0041] when the ground sewage is exhausted, some sewage will remain in the drainage channel 5 and the drainage cavity 7 in the floor drain, and the residual sewage can water-seal between the room and the drainage pipe 4, so as to prevent the odor in the sewage pipe from flowing backwards indoors, which has a good deodorizing effect; [0042] the inner surface of the drainage cover 2 is provided with spiral lines or spiral flow channels (not shown in the attached drawings), so that the flowing sewage can form a spiral water flow during drainage, thereby accelerating the water flow speed.

[0043] According to the above, the base 1 includes a seat body 14 and a seat ring 15, the seat ring 15 is fixedly connected to the seat body 14, the cover plate 3 is correspondingly located on the seat body 14 and in the seat ring 15; the upper port of the seat body 14 is provided with a fixing groove 16, the lower port of the seat ring 15 is sleeved in the fixing groove 16, and is fixedly connected with the seat ring 15 with sealant water; positioning posts 17 are installed on both sides of the upper port of the seat body 14, the two sides of the bottom of the cover plate 3 are provided with positioning grooves 301 corresponding to the positioning posts 17, and the positioning posts 17 are inserted into the positioning grooves 301; the seat body 14 and the drainage cover 2 are made of plastic materials, and the seat ring 15 and the cover plate 3 are made of metal materials; [0044] through the matching between the installation groove 13 and the drainage pipe 4, the drainage cover 2 can be sleeved on the top of the drainage pipe 4, and at the same time, the drainage cover 2 can be pulled out from the top of the drainage pipe 4, while through the matching between the positioning groove 301 and the positioning post 17, the cover plate 3 can be covered on the top of the base 1, so that the cover plate 3 can be opened and the drainage cover 2 can be pulled out upward, so that the dirt accumulated in the base I can be cleaned very conveniently and the blockage can be effectively avoided.

Embodiment 2

[0045] Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIGS. 5 to 9.

[0046] The present invention provides an anti-odor, anti-blocking and easy-to-clean vertical-drainage floor drain, which includes a base 1 and a cover plate 3, wherein the base 1 includes a seat body 14 and a seat ring 15, the seat ring 15 is fixedly connected to the seat body 14, and at least two sides of the upper port of the seat body 14 are provided with positioning support posts 18.

[0047] The difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is that: [0048] the positioning support post 18 includes a positioning part 1801 and a rotating support part 1802, wherein the positioning part 1801 is located inside the rotating support part 1802, and the top surface of the rotating support part 1802 is provided with a support surface 1803; the cover plate 3 is located inside the seat ring 15, positioning grooves 301 corresponding to the rotating support part 1802 are formed on the two sides of the bottom of the cover plate 3, and the upper end of the rotating support part 1802 is inserted into the corresponding positioning grooves 301; the support surface 1803 and the inner surface of the positioning groove 301 are both arc surfaces and are connected in a sliding manner; the positioning part 1801 is located inside the cover plate 3 and is attached to the inner side of the cover plate 3; [0049] by the positioning part 1801, when the cover plate 3 is covered on the base 1, since the positioning part 1801 is located inside the cover plate 3, the positioning part 1801 can limit the cover plate 3 in forward and backward directions to avoid the forward and backward displacement of the cover plate 3; and the support surface 1803 and the inner surface of the positioning groove 301 are set as arc surfaces, and after the positioning part 1801 is inserted into the positioning groove 301, the left and right direction of the cover plate 3 can be limited to avoid the left and right displacement of the cover plate 3; [0050] moreover, by setting the support surface 1803 and the inner surface of the positioning groove 301 as arc surfaces, when the cover plate 3 needs to be removed from the base 1, only the left or right end of the cover plate 3 needs to be pressed downwards; when the left or right end of the cover plate 3 is pressed, a fulcrum will be formed at the contact point between the rotating support part 1802 and the positioning groove 301, and then the other end of the cover plate 3 will be tilted upwards by the lever principle, as shown in FIG. 7, so that in this way, when the cover plate 3 is disassembled, the cover plate 3 can protrude upward from the base 1, and then the cover plate 3 can be conveniently held and the convenience of disassembling the cover plate 3 can be improved.

[0051] In Embodiment 2 of the rotating support part 1802, as shown in FIG. 8, the rotating support part 1802 is arranged in the middle of the upper port of the seat body 14, and the support surface 1803 and the positioning groove 301 are both triangular, and the two sides of the support surface 1803 are shorter than those of the positioning groove 301; with this structure, when one end of the cover plate 3 is pressed, the power arm formed between the pressing part and the rotating support part 1802 is longer, so that a smaller pressing force is needed when the cover plate 3 is tilted, which is more labor-saving.

[0052] In Embodiment 3 of the rotating support part 1802, as shown in FIG. 9, different from the Embodiment 2, the support surface 1803 and the positioning groove 901 are trapezoidal, and the two sides of the support surface 1803 are shorter than the two sides of the positioning groove 301. Compared with the Embodiment 2, this structure can make the support of the cover plate 3 more stable.

[0053] In addition to the above three embodiments, the rotating support part 1802 and the support surface 1803 can also adopt any other geometric shape that can realize the tilting of the cover plate 3.

[0054] In other embodiments of the floor drain (not shown in the drawings):

[0055] The cross-sectional shapes of the base 1, the cover plate 3 and the drainage cover 2 are not limited to the rectangular or circular shapes shown in the attached drawings, but also can be other geometric shapes such as triangles and polygons, so that appropriate shapes can be selected according to actual needs to achieve the best drainage effect; [0056] the seat body 14 and the seat ring 15 can also be fixedly connected in a clamping manner; by adopting the clamping connection mode, the seat body 14 and the seat ring 15 can be detached, thereby further facilitating the cleaning of the floor drain; [0057] moreover, the seat body 14 and the seat ring 15 can be connected in an integrated way, which can save the processing and manufacturing cost of the floor drain; [0058] the bracket 12 can also be connected between the cover body 10 and the sleeve 11 in a hollowed-out net structure, so that the bracket 12 can intercept and filter the sewage while playing the functions of connecting and supporting, and further improve the anti-blocking effect of the floor drain; [0059] the sleeve 11 and the drainage pipe 4 can also be connected by threaded connection or clamping, which can improve the stability of the connection between the drainage cover 2 and the drainage pipe 4, so that the drainage cover 2 is not easily shaken due to the impact of water flow during drainage; [0060] the connection mode of the drainage pipe 4 and the sewage pipe can also be connected by threads, so that the drainage pipe 4 and the sewage pipe can be detached, and the drainage pipe 4 can be connected with the seat body 14 by threads, so that the drainage pipe 4 and the seat body 14 can be detached, and thus when the drainage pipe 4 is damaged or blocked, the drainage pipe 4 can be detached from the seat body 14 for replacement or maintenance.

[0061] To sum up, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: [0062] through the siphon phenomenon formed between the drainage cover 2 and the drainage pipe 4 in the base 1, rapid drainage can be realized; after the drainage is completed, water can be stored in the drainage channel 5 and part of the drainage cavity 7 to realize water sealing, thus achieving the deodorization effect; at the same time, in the process of drainage, short hair will be siphoned down, long hair will remain above the gap of the cover plate 3, and some impurities will be deposited at the bottom of the drainage channel 5; the cover plate 3 and the drainage cover 2 are detachably connected to facilitate the removal of the cover plate 3 and the drainage cover 2 to clean the sundries in the drain tank 5, thus effectively avoiding the occurrence of blockage.

[0063] Through the matching arrangement of the positioning support post 18 and the positioning groove 301, when the cover plate 3 is disassembled, the cover plate 3 can protrude upward from the base 1 by pressing the cover plate 3, so that it is convenient to hold the cover plate 3 and improve the convenience of disassembling the cover plate 3.

[0064] The present invention also provides an anti-odor and anti-blocking method for a floor drain, including adopting an anti-odor, anti-blocking and easy-to-clean vertical-drainage floor drain comprising a base 1, a drainage cover 2 and a cover plate 3, wherein a drainage pipe 4 is arranged in the base 1, the base 1 includes a seat body 14 and a seat ring 15, a drainage channel 5 is formed between the drainage pipe 4 and the seat body 14, and a drainage outlet 6 is simultaneously arranged at an upper end of the base 1; the drainage cover 2 is detachably connected above the drainage pipe 4 to form a drainage cavity 7 and a water inlet 8 communicated with the drainage pipe 4; and the cover plate 3 is placed at the drainage outlet 6 of the base 1 and forms a drainage gap 9 with the base 1; the method includes the following steps: [0065] Step 1, embedding the base 1 into the ground, and connecting the drainage pipe 4 with a sewage pipe; [0066] Step 2, during sewage discharge, long hair remaining above the gap between the cover plate 3 and the seat ring 15, and then manually cleaning the residual hair to avoid blockage of the floor drain; during sewage discharge, sewage sequentially passing through the drainage gap 9, the drainage channel 5, the water inlet 8 and enters the drainage cavity 7, then entering the drainage pipe 4, and the sewage in the drainage pipe 4 being discharged into the drainage pipeline; when the ground sewage is exhausted, part of the sewage remaining in the drainage channel 5 and the drainage cavity 7, and the remaining sewage water-sealing between the room and the drainage pipe 4 to prevent odor from flowing backwards; [0067] Step 3, when cleaning the interior of the floor drain, firstly, holding the cover plate 3 and taking it out from the base 1, then holding the drainage cover 2 and pulling it out from the drainage pipe 4, and then cleaning the dirt accumulated in the drainage channel 5 to avoid the blockage of the floor drain; when the cover plate 3 is taken, one end of the cover plate 3 being pressed down by a hand, and then the other end of the cover plate 3 being tilted upward, and then grasping the tilted end to take the cover plate 3 off the base 1.
