[0031] In the embodiment, the valve body 1 comprises a connecting seat 11 and a connecting pipe 12, two ends of the connecting pipe 12 are respectively provided with a water inlet and a water outlet, the upper end of the connecting seat 11 is threaded, a filter bottle 5 is connected through the threaded connection, one end of the water inlet pipe 8 is provided with a short threaded end which is screwed with the thread of the connecting pipe 12 to play the role of the water inlet, at the same time, the three-way water inlet valve ball 9 and the matched ball valve O-ring are fixed, the installation is convenient and fixed, the connecting pipe 12 is provided with a hole connected with the water inlet pipe 8, the hole is provided with an internal thread 201, and the three-way water inlet valve ball 9, the ball valve sealing gasket and the matched O-ring are installed in the hole; the connecting pipe 12 is provided with a water inlet hole 103 matched with the water inlet valve rod 91, the water inlet valve rod 91 is exposed outside the water inlet hole 103 after assembly, the water inlet valve rod 91 can be operated outside the connecting pipe 12, and then the three-way water inlet valve ball 9 matched with the water inlet valve rod 91 is controlled, the connecting pipe 12 is provided with a blow-off valve mounting hole 102 matched with the blow-off valve 7, the blow-off valve 7 is mounted in the blow-off valve mounting hole 102, the valve body 1 is provided with the water inlet hole 103, and the water inlet is communicated with the water inlet pipe 8.The valve body 1 is provided with a water outlet hole 101, which is communicated with the water outlet. The three-way water inlet valve ball 9 is used for switching water path during filtration and backwashing. The water inlet hole 103 is used for cooperating with the water inlet valve rod 91. The water inlet valve rod 91 can switch the water path when rotating. The water passing hole is used for passing tap water. The blowdown valve 7 is used for washing and discharging the filtered impurities, which is installed on the connecting pipe 12 and communicated with the inner cavity of the filter bottle 5. The blowdown valve rod 71 is used for controlling the opening and closing of the blowdown valve 7. The quartz sand 6 filters the impurities in the tap water and has the functions of interception and filtration. During backwashing, the quartz sand 6 will roll up and down to clean the filtered impurities. The impurities are discharged from the filter through the blowdown valve 7 along with the water flow. The quartz sand 6 is a good filtering material. The filter cartridge 2 is used for isolating the unfiltered tap water and purified water. The filter cartridge 2 is internally provided with a filter screen framework 31 and a filter screen 33. The filter screen 33 is embedded in the filter screen framework 31.

The filter bottle 5 is used for isolating the tap water and the outside. The filter cover 4 is internally loaded with the quartz sand 6 and simultaneously isolates the tap water from contacting the filter screen 33. The unfiltered tap water enters the inside of the filter cover 4 through the grid 401. Too large particles will be intercepted by the grid 401. During backwashing, the large particles are directly discharged from the inner cavity of the filter bottle 5 to the filter through the blowdown valve 7. Meanwhile, the design distance of the grid 401 is smaller than the diameter of the quartz sand 6 particles. In this way, the grid 401 can intercept the quartz sand 6 during backwashing to prevent the quartz sand 6 from being washed out of the filter cover 4 by the backwashing water flow and causing the loss of filter material. The water distribution ribs 402 can disperse the water flow and make the water flow more uniform during normal filtration of the filter. Meanwhile, the water distribution ribs 402 are in contact with the inner wall of the filter bottle 5 to play a positioning role and prevent the filter cover 4 from shaking in the filter bottle 5. The external thread 403 cooperates with the internal thread 201 of the filter cartridge 2. After combination, the filter core part becomes an integral filter module. The filter material and the filter screen 33 are inside and can be conveniently replaced and maintained. The filter hopper 32 is funnel-shaped and is designed as a grid on the surface to intercept the quartz sand 6 and prevent the quartz sand 6 from directly contacting the filter screen 33 and hindering the filtration of the filter screen 33. The water inlet valve rod 91 cooperates with the three-way water inlet valve ball 9 and can control the rotation of the three-way water inlet valve ball 9 to switch the water path when rotating.
