Abstract

A drainage device includes a closed chamber, a liquid pumping mechanism, and a liquid discharge mechanism. The drainage device can also include a controller. The closed chamber may be filled with liquid and gas for discharge. The liquid pumping mechanism pumps the liquid in the closed chamber, and prevents the liquid in the liquid pumping mechanism from flowing back to the closed chamber. The liquid discharge mechanism discharges the liquid in the liquid pumping mechanism to the outside, and prevents outside air from flowing into the closed chamber.
