LIQUID REFILLING DEVICE FOR WATER TRAPS (DRAIN TRAPS) IN FLOOR DRAINS AND THE LIKE

摘要

The present invention relates to a refilling device (1), intended to be used to refill liquid and also to ensure an adequate level of liquid in a water trap of a floor drain (2) or the like. The refilling device (1) includes at least one reservoir (3), which is intended to contain a liquid, preferably water. The reservoir (3) is provided with at least one outlet/inlet (4) which via at least one connector (5), with a through hole (19), is connected to one hose (6), tube or the like through which the liquid is intended to flow from the reservoir (3) to the floor drain's water trap. The refilling device (1) includes at least one adjusting device (15) with which the insertion of the hose's (6) free end (14) into the floor drain's (2) water trap may be adjusted. The present refilling devices unique feature is that the automatic refilling function is accomplished by the fluid being transferred from the reservoir (3) via the hose (6) by the force of gravity into the water trap of the floor drain (2), when the liquid level in the water trap of the floor drain (2) drops below the free end (14) of the hose (6). The fluid stops flowing out from the reservoir (3) to the water trap in the floor drain (2) when the liquid level in the water trap of the floor drain (2) reaches the level of the hose's (6) free end (14) or essentially just above it.
