Description

[Technical Field] This utility model relates to the technical field of water purifiers and water purification equipment, and in particular to mineral filter technology applied in water purifiers. [Background Technology] As people's living standards improve, water purifiers and water purification equipment have become common household appliances. These devices integrate various reverse osmosis filters, mineral filters, or cooling and heating units. However, mineral filters often simply mix multiple minerals and stack them haphazardly within the same filter chamber, lacking control over the release ratio and concentration of various minerals. This can easily lead to excessive or insufficient minerals, affecting taste and health benefits. In some designs, the inconsistent placement of the minerals results in unstable water output, making precise mineralization adjustment difficult. [Summary of the Invention] This invention addresses the above-mentioned problems by proposing a mineral-controlled filter cartridge with a novel structure, clear mineral zoning, uniform water flow regulation, and controllable mineralization ratio. Through specific water distribution components and mineral dispensing devices, it can achieve stratified water flow and precise utilization of minerals, thereby stably regulating the mineralization ratio and concentration of purified water, improving mineralization efficiency and taste consistency.

[0012] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 The image shows a filter element capable of controlling and regulating minerals, the filter element comprising the following structure: Filter cartridge housing 10: includes a cylindrical housing 11 and a bottom cover 12. The top of the cylindrical housing 11 is provided with an inlet 111 and an outlet 112, and the bottom opening is fastened to the bottom cover 12 to form an internal housing space, support the internal components and form a water passage sealing channel. Central tube 20: A pipe with openings at both ends, namely the inlet and the outlet; the central tube 20 runs through the filter element housing 10 from top to bottom along the central axis of the filter element housing 10, with the inlet connected to the water inlet 111 and its outlet located at the bottom of the filter element housing 10; the central tube guides the water entering the filter element to the bottom of the filter element housing 10 and exits, while the central tube 20 also acts as a support shaft for the internal structure.

[0013] Water distributor: includes at least two water distributors, namely a first water distributor 31 and a second water distributor 32. The first water distributor 31 and the second water distributor 32 are both sleeved on the central tube 20, wherein the first water distributor 31 is located at the bottom of the filter element housing 10 and the second water distributor 32 is located at the top of the filter element housing 10.

[0014] Ore container 40: An ore container 40 with an independent holding space is provided on the central pipe between the first water distributor 31 and the second water distributor 32. The ore container 40 has an ore filling space and is filled with the first section of ore 61. When setting up the ore container 40, it is necessary to maintain a distance between it and the first water distributor 31.

[0015] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 3The mineral control filter element also includes a mineral separation section 50. A spacer strip 311 is provided on the first water distributor 31, and the spacer strip 311 is positioned between the first water distributor 31 and the bottom surface of the mineral receiving basket, limiting the minimum distance between them. The space between the first water distributor 31 and the bottom surface of the mineral receiving basket, within the space between the central tube 20 and the filter element shell 10, constitutes the mineral separation section 50 for holding and containing minerals. This space is not a closed space, but it is sufficient to separate minerals with different proportions. Therefore, after constructing this mineral separation section 50 within the filter element shell, the second zone of minerals 62 can be filled within the mineral separation section 50.

[0016] The first water distributor 31 is located at the bottom of the central tube 20. It is used to evenly diffuse the water introduced into the bottom of the filter cartridge housing 10 by the central tube to the bottom of the entire filter cartridge housing 10, and to support the structure in which the ore is placed within the ore separation section 50.

[0017] The second water distributor 32 is mounted on the central pipe 20 and is located on top of the filter cartridge housing 10, above the ore container basket 40, near the filter cartridge outlet 112.

[0020] The base plate 45 is positioned above the first water distributor 31, with a distance equal to the length of a spacer strip 311 between them. The outer diameter of the base plate 45 is smaller than that of the first water distributor 31. This is used to further homogenize the water flow that passes through the ore separation section 50 containing the second partition ore 62, and to guide the water flow to diffuse evenly and enter the ore container 40 filled with the first partition ore 61.

[0021] A limiting strip 21 is provided in the middle section of the central tube 20 to limit the height position of the ore container 40 on the central tube 20.

[0022] The bottom cover 12 is screwed into the cylindrical shell 11 for fastening. The bottom cover 12 can fasten the bottom of the cylindrical shell 11, forming a sealed space and providing encapsulation and support for the structure.

[0023] The first water distributor 31 and the second water distributor 32 are standard optional accessories and can be replaced by selecting combinations. Water distributors of different diameters and through-hole diameters can be selected to adapt to different water qualities and user needs. Moreover, by forming a multi-layer hydraulic path between the ore receiving basket 40 and the first water distributor 31, different sizes of ore receiving baskets 40 and the first water distributor 31 with different through-hole diameters can be selected according to the type of ore filled, such as dolomite, maifanite, strontium-rich ore, etc., to achieve gradient control of mineralization concentration.

[0024] Through the structural design of the ore separation zone 50 and the ore holding basket 40, a filter element structure with clear ore partitioning, uniform water flow regulation, and controllable mineralization ratio is achieved. It can realize the layered flow of water and the precise utilization of ore through specific water distribution components, ore partitioning structure and partitioning zones, thereby stably regulating the mineralization ratio and concentration of purified water, improving mineralization efficiency and taste consistency.

[0025] The core technology and beneficial effects of the mineral control filter element involved in this utility model are as follows: 1. Mineral packing control: By storing different mineral materials in different water distribution / carrying structures in separate zones, the problem of uncontrolled mixed release ratio is avoided; 2. Uniform water flow guidance: The multi-stage water distribution structure and device realize the inlet water from bottom to top and multi-stage permeation flow, improving the mineral contact efficiency; 3. Adjustable concentration: Through the optimization of design parameters such as water distribution hole diameter and mineral filling ratio, the customized needs of different users for mineralization degree can be met; 4. Extended filter element life: The balanced water flow avoids local scaling and water circuit blockage, improving the overall service life; 5.
