Abstract:
A device for clearing pipe blockage includes: pumping means (A) for compressing air by pumping and having an outlet (18) for discharging compressed air out; and an inflatable balloon mounted at the outlet and expanding by air discharged through the outlet. The outlet is a one-way valve, and a cylindrical guide member (24) is formed to surround the outside of the inflatable balloon, guides the inflatable balloon to move forward inside a pipe when a front end part of the guide member is inserted into the pipe, and is made of flexible material. A presser which cleans the inner surface of the pipe while moving in a state where it gets in contact with the inner surface of the pipe is mounted at a front end of the inflatable balloon, and the blocked pipe is cleared by shock pressure by movement of the pumping unit and a change in pressure by expansion of the inflatable balloon by the compressed air.
