Description

Desatascador de tuberías.Pipe Unblocker.

Object of the invention

La presente solicitud de Modelo de Utilidad tiene por objeto el registro de un desatascador de tuberías, de uso doméstico, de fácil manejo y bajo coste.The present Utility Model application Its purpose is to register a pipe plunger, for use Domestic, easy to use and low cost.

Background of the invention

Es conocido el hecho de que en las tuberías de desagües de equipos domésticos, tales como, desagües de lavabos, duchas, bañeras, fregaderos, etc., suelen producirse atascos como consecuencia de la acumulación de residuos (pelos, algodón, bastoncillos, etc.) que se depositan en algún tramo de la tubería.The fact that in the pipes of drains of household equipment, such as sink drains, showers, bathtubs, sinks, etc., jams often occur as consequence of the accumulation of waste (hairs, cotton, swabs, etc.) that are deposited in some section of the pipeline.

Los desatascadores manuales más conocidos actúan directamente sobre la boca del desagüe, ejerciendo cierta presión o vacío sobre la tubería. No obstante, dichos desatascadores no resultan efectivos.The best known manual uncloggers act directly over the mouth of the drain, exerting some pressure or Empty over the pipe. However, such plungers do not They are effective.

En particular, en ninguno de los desatascadores de tuberías conocidos por el solicitante, se contempla la existencia de una invención que disponga de las características que se describen en esta memoria.In particular, in none of the pliers of pipes known to the applicant, the existence of an invention that has the characteristics that They are described in this report.

Description of the invention

El desatascador de tuberías objeto del presente registro, resuelve los inconvenientes anteriormente citados, aportando, además, otras ventajas adicionales que serán evidentes a partir de la descripción que se acompaña a continuación.The pipe plunger object of the present registration, resolves the aforementioned problems, providing, in addition, other additional advantages that will be evident to from the description that follows.

Para ello, y de forma más concreta, el desatascador, de uso doméstico, se caracteriza por el hecho de comprender una carcasa interiormente hueca relacionada por su cara inferior y mediante una boquilla a un cuerpo guía tubular sobre el que gira, y que presenta en su cara superior unos medios de accionamiento para hacer girar la carcasa sobre el cuerpo guía; estando la terminación libre del cuerpo guía dotada de unos medios fijadores de un cable flexible extensible susceptible de alojarse en el interior de la carcasa, y que discurre por el cuerpo guía terminando fuera de el; y por el hecho de que el extremo del cable flexible presenta unos medios de corte, mientras que el extremo opuesto del cable está relacionado con los medios de accionamiento.To do this, and more specifically, the plunger, for domestic use, is characterized by the fact comprise an internally hollow housing related by its face bottom and by means of a nozzle to a tubular guide body on the that rotates, and that presents on its upper face some means of drive to rotate the housing on the guide body; the free termination of the guide body provided with means fasteners of an extendable flexible cable capable of staying in the inside of the housing, and that runs through the guide body ending out of it; and for the fact that the end of the cable flexible features cutting means while the end opposite of the cable is related to the means of drive

Adicionalmente, los medios de corte son una cuchilla móvil que arrastra y corta la suciedad que produce el atasco, y la citada cuchilla está unida al cable mediante una junta articulada, tal que, la cuchilla móvil realiza un movimiento basculante con respecto a la citada junta.Additionally, the cutting means are a mobile blade that drags and cuts the dirt produced by the jamming, and said blade is attached to the cable by means of a gasket articulated, such that, the mobile blade performs a movement tilting with respect to said board.

Según una realización preferente, la carcasa interiormente hueca presenta una forma sensiblemente troncocónica; y los medios de accionamiento son una manivela.According to a preferred embodiment, the housing internally hollow, it has a substantially conical shape; and the drive means are a crank.

Los materiales del desatascador son, preferentemente, metálicos, en concreto, de acero.The materials of the plunger are, preferably, metal, specifically, steel.

Conforme a las particularidades del desatascador descrito, para su utilización se debe introducir manualmente el extremo del cable flexible en la tubería hasta alcanzar el atasco o tope. Alcanzado el atasco, deben ajustarse los medios fijadores del cable flexible, y debe hacerse girar el cable mediante la manivela de los medios de accionamiento. El giro se realiza unas 6 o 7 veces hacia un sentido, y después en sentido contrario, para no tensar el cable. De tal modo, que la cuchilla incide sobre el atasco, deshaciéndolo. A continuación se procede a hacer pasar agua caliente y posteriormente a retirar el cable.According to the particularities of the plunger described, for use you must manually enter the end of the flexible cable in the pipe until the jam is reached or stop, top, maximum as a noun, top as an adverb. Once the jam is reached, the fixing means of the flexible cable, and the cable must be rotated by the crank of the drive means. The turn is done about 6 or 7 times towards one direction, and then in the opposite direction, so as not to tense the cable. In such a way, that the blade strikes the jam, undoing it Then proceed to make hot water pass and then to remove the cable.

Ventajosamente, y gracias a las características del desatascador descrito, se obtiene un elemento para desatascar desagües de lavabos, duchas, bañeras, fregaderos, etc. (uso doméstico) de fácil manejo y bajo coste.Advantageously, and thanks to the features from the described plunger, an element for unblocking is obtained drains from sinks, showers, bathtubs, sinks, etc. (use domestic) easy to use and low cost.

Para completar la descripción que seguidamente se va a realizar y con objeto de ayudar a una mejor comprensión de sus características, se acompaña a la presente memoria descriptiva, de un juego de planos en cuyas figuras, de forma ilustrativa y no limitativa, se representan los detalles más significativos de la invención.To complete the description below is going to be done and in order to help a better understanding of its characteristics, is accompanied by the present specification, of a set of planes in whose figures, illustratively and not limiting, the most significant details of the invention.

Brief description of the designs
