ABSTRACT:
A device for flushing a drain pipe of a sink by applying water under pressure to the interior of the pipe. A conduit for passing water therethrough under pressure is connected to a seal which fits over the mouth of the pipe and provides a water tight seal. At least two L-shaped members having threaded portions extend through the seal and engage an anchor point in the mouth of the pipe. A disc extends transversely between and interconnects the L-shaped members, and the conduit extends through a control aperture in the disc. Pressure is exerted on the conduit when nuts mounted on the threaded portions of the L-shaped members are urged against the disc to bring the seal into sealing engagement with the pipe. An apertured locking member is firmly secured to and interconnects the L-shaped members at a point between the location of the nuts on the L-shaped members and the ends of the L-shaped members opposite from the anchor point. The apertured locking member prevents rotation and disengagement of the L-shaped members when the seal is brought into sealing engagement with the pipe.
