Mobile plumbing tool for unclogging drain pipes with air-pressurized water

Abstract

A rigid body with a hollowed cavity is configured to intercept a drain line between a clogged portion and an unclogged portion. A first inlet on the body to receive pressurized water from a water line. A second inlet on the body to receive pressurized air from a mobile air source. The second inlet can have a smaller diameter than the first inlet. The pressurized air is mixed with the pressurized water in a chamber at an intersection of the T-shaped body to produce a pressurized air/water combination of air pressurized water droplets. A combined outlet for coupling to the clogged portion of the drain pipe to force the pressurized air/water combination to clear the clogged portion of the drain

We claim: 
     
         1 . A plumbing tool for unclogging water drains with air-pressurized water, the plumbing tool comprising:
 a rigid body with a hollowed cavity configured to intercept a drain line between a clogged portion and an unclogged portion;   a first inlet on the rigid body configured to receive pressurized water directly from an external water line;   a second inlet on the rigid body configured to receive pressurized air directly from an external mobile air source, the second inlet having a smaller diameter than the first inlet, wherein the pressurized air is mixed with the pressurized water in a chamber at an intersection of the body to produce a pressurized air/water combination of air pressurized water droplets; and   a combined outlet with threading for coupling the rigid body directly to the clogged portion of the drain pipe using threading of the drain pipe, the combined outlet inline with the second inlet, to force the pressurized air/water combination directly into the clogged portion to clear the clogged portion of the drain, wherein the rigid body, the first inlet, the second inlet and the combined outlet are monolithic.   
     
     
         2 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , wherein the rigid body comprises a Y-shape. 
     
     
         3 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , wherein the combined outlet comprises a screen with a first pattern to generate a first dispersion pattern. 
     
     
         4 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , wherein the first inlet and the combined outlet are centered around a common axis. 
     
     
         5 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , wherein an axis of the second inlet is substantially perpendicular to a common axis of the first inlet and the combined outlet. 
     
     
         6 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , further comprising a controller to set a ratio of air to water in the chamber. 
     
     
         7 . The plumbing tool of  claim 6 , wherein the controller connects wirelessly to a user interface. 
     
     
         8 . The plumbing tool of  claim 7 , wherein the air pressure and the water pressure are controlled wirelessly. 
     
     
         9 . The plumbing tool of  claim 7 , wherein the controller operates responsive to voice commands. 
     
     
         10 . The plumbing tool of  claim 7 , wherein the controller is wirelessly connected via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. 
     
     
         11 . The plumbing tool of  claim 6 , wherein the controller sets a temperature of the water from the first inlet. 
     
     
         12 . The plumbing tool of  claim 6 , further comprising a clog sensor to automatically activate the controller upon detection of a clog. 
     
     
         13 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , wherein the combined outlet comprises a screen having a position and or a dispersion pattern set wirelessly by input of the user interface. 
     
     
         14 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , wherein the ratio controlled via artificial intelligence or machine learning. 
     
     
         15 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , further comprising a camera proximate to the outlet to view the clogged portion of the drain on a user interface. 
     
     
         16 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , further comprising a first valve to independently control water pressure at the first inlet and a second valve to independently control air pressure at the second inlet. 
     
     
         17 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , wherein the plumbing tool is permanently affixed to the drain line. 
     
     
         18 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , wherein the drain line is oriented horizontally. 
     
     
         19 . The plumbing tool of  claim 1 , wherein the drain line is oriented vertically. 
     
     
         20 . A method for unclogging water drains with air-pressurized water, the method comprising:
 providing a rigid body with a hollowed cavity configured to intercept a drain line between a clogged portion and an unclogged portion;   receiving pressurized water from a water line at a first inlet on the rigid body;   receiving pressurized air from a mobile air source at a second inlet on the rigid body, the second inlet having a smaller diameter than the first inlet, wherein the pressurized air is mixed with the pressurized water in a chamber at an intersection of the rigid body to produce a pressurized air/water combination of air pressurized water droplets; and   forcing the pressurized air/water combination through a combined outlet coupled to the clogged portion of the drain to clear the clog.
