Abstract:
1. A drain trap comprising: a main body equipped with a communicating path which communicates a receiving unit and a discharge unit; a storage unit which, being installed in the communicating path, stores effluent received by the receiving unit; and a normally-closed check valve which, being installed in the communicating path, floats up to allow the effluent in the storage unit to flow to the discharge unit when the effluent reaches or exceeds a set amount, wherein the storage unit is installed in such a way as to communicate with a part right under the normally-closed check valve, wherein the discharge unit is installed in the lowest part of a discharge-side communicating path so that no effluent will be stored in the discharge-side communicating path, which is that part of the communicating path which runs between the normally-closed check valve and the discharge unit, wherein the main body has a tubular shape with a closed end, wherein the main body is equipped with a lid which covers inner space of the main body, a partition which partitions the inner space of the main body into the storage unit and the communicating path, and a valve seat body of a valve seat unit which catches and supports the normally-closed check valve in such a way as to close the communicating path, wherein the partition and the valve seat body are configured to be pluggable/unpluggable to/from the main body, wherein the partition and the valve seat body are constructed integrally, and wherein the partition includes a first partition which has a tubular shape and second partitions which have a plate shape, where the first partition is equipped with the valve seat body so as to place the normally-closed check valve in inner space of the first partition and the second partitions are connected to a lateral surface of the first partition and extend outward, and wherein the second partitions have outer tips fittably installed in fit type positioning units which are installed on an inner surface of the main body in such a way as not to oppose each other.
