DE4025196A1 - Pipe cleaner for toilets and showers - uses compressed air and pressure vessel with plunger operated by pushbutton - Google Patents

Abstract

The pipe-cleaning mechanism is operated by compressed air. A pressure vessel (1) has an air inlet valve on the upper part. Compressed air may be introduced into the vessel by a bicycle pump, or a small air compressor. Chemically active gases are not to be used. Midway down the pressure vessel a safety pressure control valve protects the container from overpressure on the bottom of the pressure vessel a plunger mechanism (5) with a helical return spring terminates with a stopper and flexible gasket ring (6). Above the plunger mechanism an air pressure outlet is operated with a push botton (4). To operate the pipe cleaner air is pumped into the pressure vessel. The stopper section (6) is placed into the outlet waste pipe to be cleaned and push botton (4) is operated which forces the plunger arm (5) downwards thereby clearing the outlet pipe. The pipe cleaner is then ready for re-use. USE/ADVANTAGE - Clearing flush basins, showers and toilet pans without use of chemicals or active gases and environmentally friendly. Reusable and safe reliable operation.

Description

Compressed air pipe cleaner for absolute environmentally friendly cleaning of Pipes, the container not must remain under constant pressure.

The invention relates to a print air purifier that you keep coming back with a bicycle air pump or can inflate a compressor.

To keep the pipe cleaner safe can store during or after use the container can be relieved by you release the pressure completely.

As is known, a careless Laying or maintaining pressure bottles in sunlight to explo dieren advised because of the bottles content expands into heat!  

The cleaner should only use air operate. Gases should not used to be a chemical connection with the in Sewers located Avoid gases.

The figure in sheet 3 shows:

• 1) the pressure vessel
• 2) the inflation valve
• 3) the pressure relief valve
• 4) the outlet valve (with push button)
• 5) guide tube (with return spring)
• 6) Sealing plug.

The air is pumped up in 2 . This creates a pressure in the container. So that the container does not burst, the pressure is limited to the permissible height. This happens through valve 3 . So container 1 cannot burst! If the pressure is too high, the valve 3 releases the excessive pressure. When cleaning the tube, the plug 6 is firmly inserted into the flow. The overflow of the basin must be closed with the other hand, otherwise the pressure will escape. Then you push the container firmly to the drain to operate the outlet valve.

The pressure shifts to Drain and squeezes the dirt from the drain pipe.

The existing compressed air can be wasted quietly because the pipe cleaner again and again can be inflated again. Pollution with chemical cleaners and the Danger with connections from chemical gases as well as the Storage hazard of pressure vessels is ent valid over.

Disposal of ver needed cartridges not necessary!

The advantage over that before Herigenstand is therefore in Environmental protection and security in the household!

Claims (1)

Compressed air pipe cleaner for sinks , showers and toilets, characterized in that air can be pumped into the cleaner container by means of a valve, the container is protected against overpressure by a pressure relief valve.
