[0043] This invention provides a filtration device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the filtration device includes a main body 1, a filter element 2, and a flushing assembly 3. The main body 1 has a water passage chamber 10, and is further provided with an inlet 11 and an outlet 12 connecting the water passage chamber 10. The inlet 11 is used to introduce the liquid to be filtered into the water passage chamber 10, and the outlet 12 discharges the filtered liquid from the water passage chamber 10. As shown... Figure 1 As shown, the filter element 2 is disposed within the water passage cavity 10. The filter element 2 is used to filter the liquid entering the water passage cavity 10 from the inlet 11. The filter element 2 has a first cavity 20 inside, which connects the water passage cavity 10 and the outlet 12. The inlet 11 connects to the outside of the filter element 2. In this embodiment, the filter element 2 is used to filter the liquid introduced through the inlet 11 and export the filtered liquid from the outlet 12. Specifically, the filter element 2 in this embodiment can be configured as a filter screen structure with small through-hole size. The filter element 2 can block most of the solids in the liquid on its outside, thus achieving a filtering effect. As large particles accumulate on the outside of the filter element 2, the water passage gaps formed by the through-holes of the filter element 2 are filled with large particles, affecting the water passage volume of the filter element 2.

The movement of the flushing assembly 3 relative to the first cavity 20 includes, but is not limited to, rotation and / or translation of the flushing assembly 3 relative to the first cavity 20, and the specific form of the movement of the flushing assembly 3 relative to the first cavity 20 is not limited in the embodiment of the present application, as long as the flushing assembly 3 can change the relative position relative to the first cavity 20. In the embodiment of the present application, most of the liquid filtered by the filtering element 2 is guided out through the water outlet 12, and part of the liquid can be guided by the flushing assembly 3 to move towards the inner wall surface 21 of the filtering element 2, so that the liquid impacts the water passing gap on the inner wall surface of the filtering element 2, and the large particle substances filled in the water passing gap are flushed away from the filtering element 2, so that the through holes on the filtering element 2 regain the water passing gap, and the flow guiding efficiency of the filtering element 2 is improved. It should be noted that the large particle substances flushed away from the filtering element 2 can be guided out through another sewage passage (not shown in the figure) in the embodiment of the present application.

The filtering element is arranged in the water passing cavity, and the filtering element is internally provided with a first cavity connected to the water passing cavity and the water outlet. The water inlet is connected to the outer side of the filtering element. The filtering element is used for filtering the liquid introduced through the water inlet and guiding the filtered liquid out of the water outlet. The flushing assembly is at least partially arranged in the first cavity, and the flushing assembly is movable relative to the first cavity to drive at least part of the liquid in the first cavity to move towards the inner wall surface of the filtering element. In the embodiment of the present application, the flushing assembly is arranged in the filtering element, and the movement of the flushing assembly relative to the first cavity drives part of the liquid in the first cavity to flush the inner wall surface of the filtering element, so that the large particles filled in the water passing gap of the filtering element are flushed away from the filtering element, the through holes on the filtering element regain the water passing gap, and the flow guiding efficiency of the filtering element is improved. In the embodiment of the present application, the flushing assembly flushes the inner wall surface of the filtering element, and does not exert a squeezing force on the filtering element, thereby reducing the problem of secondary pollution caused by the penetration of residues through the filtering element. The flushed residues are accumulated in the water passing cavity on the outer side of the filtering net, and are conveniently discharged.
[0046] In some embodiments, in conjunction with Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the flushing assembly 3 comprises a movable body 31 and a first impeller 32. The movable body 31 is movably arranged in the first cavity 20, and the movable body 31 is internally provided with a second cavity 310, which is communicated with the first cavity 20, that is, the water in the first cavity 20 can enter the second cavity 310, and the water in the second cavity 310 can also enter the first cavity 20. The first impeller 32 is movably arranged in the second cavity 310.
[0047] In combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the filter device further comprises a driving assembly 33. The driving assembly 33 is connected with the first impeller 32, and the driving assembly 33 is used to drive the first impeller 32 to rotate relative to the second cavity 310, wherein the first impeller 32 rotates around the axis of the driving assembly 33, and in the case that the first impeller 32 rotates, the first impeller 32 can drive the liquid in the second cavity 310 to flow to the first cavity 20, so that the liquid can impact the inner wall surface of the filter element to realize the flushing of the water gap of the filter element.
[0048] In the embodiment of the present application, the driving assembly can drive the first impeller to rotate relative to the second cavity in the movable body, the rotation of the first impeller can drive the liquid in the second cavity to flow from the second cavity to the first cavity, the liquid flowing out of the first cavity can impact the inner wall surface of the filter element, and the rotating first impeller drives the liquid in the second cavity to do centrifugal motion, and the movable element can rotate with the liquid, so that the liquid flowing out of the second cavity to the first cavity can impact the filter element around the axial rotation, thereby improving the range of the filter element being flushed on the filter element and improving the cleanliness of the filter element.
[0049] In some embodiments, in combination Figures 1-4 As shown, the second cavity 310 comprises a first sub-cavity 311 and a second sub-cavity 312. The first sub-cavity 311 is internally provided with the first impeller 32, and the first sub-cavity 311 extends along the radial direction of the first impeller 32, that is, the first sub-cavity 311 can be obtained by rotating one circle of the diameter of the first impeller 32. The first impeller 32 is arranged in the first sub-cavity 311. The second sub-cavity 312 is arranged around the circumference of the first sub-cavity 311, and the second sub-cavity 312 is communicated with the first sub-cavity 311, and the second sub-cavity 312 extends along the axial direction of the first impeller 32, as Figure 1 As shown, the axial direction of the first impeller 32 is Figure 1 the left-right direction, and the radial direction of the first impeller 32 is Figure 1The activity body 31 is further provided with a backflow hole 313, which is communicated with the second sub-cavity 312 and the first cavity 20. In the embodiment of the present application, the second sub-cavity 312 of the activity body 31 is axially extended, so that the extending direction of the second sub-cavity 312 is substantially consistent with the extending direction of the filter element 2. The liquid in the second sub-cavity 312 can be discharged from the backflow hole 313 and can impact on the inner wall surface of the filter element in a large range, so as to enhance the cleanliness of the filter element.
[0050] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 The length of the second sub-cavity 312 in the axial direction is greater than or equal to 0.5 times the length of the filter element 2 in the axial direction. The filter element 2 can be an annular filter screen arranged around the axial direction, and the two ends of the filter element 2 in the axial direction are respectively abutted against the two end surfaces of the body 1 in the axial direction, so that the filter element 2 can separate the water inlet 11 and the water outlet 12 on the inner and outer sides of the filter element 2, so that the liquid can enter the first cavity from the water inlet 11, pass through the filter element 2, and then be discharged from the water outlet 12, and the solid residues are blocked on the outer side of the filter element 2. In the embodiment of the present application, the length of the second sub-cavity in the axial direction is greater than or equal to half of the length of the filter element in the axial direction, so that the water flow discharged from the backflow hole communicated with the second sub-cavity can impact on the inner wall surface of the filter element in a large area, thereby improving the cleanliness of the filter element cleaning, and further improving the filtering efficiency of the filter element.
[0051] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the drawings, the activity body 31 is provided with a plurality of groups of backflow holes 313, which are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction; and each group of backflow holes 313 includes at least one backflow hole 313. In the embodiment of the present application, the second sub-cavity 312 can be arranged in a ring shape around the circumference of the first sub-cavity 311. In the case of arranging the second sub-cavity 312 in a ring shape, it is beneficial to improve the area and flushing efficiency of the second sub-cavity for spraying the filter element. Alternatively, the second sub-cavity 312 can also be provided in multiple numbers, and the multiple second sub-cavities 312 are arranged at intervals around the circumference of the first sub-cavity 311. Arranging multiple second sub-cavities 312 at intervals is beneficial to realize flushing of the filter element without affecting the flow of filtered water to the water outlet, and is beneficial to improve the filtering efficiency of the filtering device. Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the embodiment shown in the drawings, the second sub-cavity 312 is provided in two numbers, and the two second sub-cavities 312 are symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the first sub-cavity 311 in the circumferential direction. Each second sub-cavity 312 is provided with a group of backflow holes 313, and each group of backflow holes 313 includes one or more backflow holes 313, Figure 4In the shown embodiment, three backflow holes 313 are arranged in a group of backflow holes in the same second sub-cavity 312, and the three backflow holes 313 are arranged at intervals in the axial direction of the second sub-cavity 312. The axial direction of the second sub-cavity 312 is the same direction as the axial direction of the first impeller 32. The embodiment of the present application arranges multiple groups of backflow holes, and the multiple groups of backflow holes are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction, and each group of backflow holes is arranged with multiple backflow holes at intervals in the circumferential direction. This is advantageous for increasing the area of the liquid in the second sub-cavity sprayed to the inner wall surface of the filter element, thereby increasing the cleanliness of the cleaning of the filter element, and further improving the filtering efficiency of the filter element.
[0052] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 5 The ratio of the first size L1 to the second size L2 in the cross section of the backflow hole 313 is greater than or equal to a first set value and less than or equal to a second set value; wherein the first size is the maximum size of the cross section perpendicular to the axial direction, and the second size is the maximum size of the cross section in the axial direction. It should be noted that the size of the cross section of the backflow hole 313 represents the size of the opening of the backflow hole 313 that can be used to guide the liquid. The shape of the backflow hole 313 has a certain influence on the direction of the liquid. The embodiment of the present application arranges the ratio of the first size to the second size of the cross section of the backflow hole to be greater than or equal to the first set value and less than or equal to the second set value, and the ratio is less than 1. This makes the cross section of the backflow hole flat, which is advantageous for increasing the range of the liquid sprayed in the axial direction by the backflow hole. The liquid sprayed by multiple backflow holes at intervals in the same group of backflow holes can cover a straight line in the axial direction of the filter element. During the rotation of the movable element, the liquid sprayed by the backflow holes in the same group can cover the entire inner wall surface of the filter element, thereby improving the cleanliness of the cleaning of the filter element.
[0053] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 5 The first set value is 0.3 and the second set value is 0.8, that is, the ratio of the first size L1 perpendicular to the axial direction to the second size L2 in the axial direction of the backflow hole 313 is greater than or equal to 0.3 and less than or equal to 0.8. For example, the cross section of the backflow hole 313 can be arranged to have an elliptical shape and a circular rectangular shape, and the size ratio of the cross section is within a certain range. The embodiment of the present application limits the ratio of the first size to the second size of the cross section of the backflow hole to be within a certain range, which is advantageous for increasing the range of the liquid sprayed in the axial direction by the backflow hole, thereby increasing the range of the liquid sprayed in the axial direction by the entire group of backflow holes, and further improving the cleanliness of the cleaning of the filter element.
[0054] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1The body 1 is further provided with a third cavity 4 communicated with the first cavity 20, and the water outlet 12 is communicated with the third cavity 4. The filtering device further comprises a second impeller 5 arranged in the third cavity 4. The second impeller 5 is rotatable relative to the third cavity 4 to drive the liquid in the third cavity 4 to flow out of the water outlet 12. The second impeller 5 arranged in the third cavity 4 can accelerate the flow speed of the liquid in the third cavity 4, thereby improving the water guiding efficiency of the water pump. Figure 1 As shown in
[0055] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown in
[0056] In combination with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown in Figure 1As shown on the right end, the elastic component 342 is fixed in the circumferential direction. That is, during the rotation of the follower component 341, the elastic component 342 is fixed, causing the follower component 341 to rotate relative to the surface of the elastic component 342. During the rotation, the elastic component 342 provides a circumferential frictional force to the follower component 341. The direction of this frictional force is opposite to the rotation direction of the follower component 341, so that the frictional force hinders the rotation of the follower component 341, thereby reducing the rotational speed of the moving body 31 connected to the follower component 341. This controls the rotational speed of the moving body 31, thereby increasing the speed and flow rate of the liquid discharged from the return hole in the moving body, and improving the cleanliness of the filter element cleaning.
[0057] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the follower assembly 341 includes a first connecting shaft 3411 and a first damping element 3412. One end of the first connecting shaft 3411 ( Figure 1 The right end shown is fixedly connected to the movable body 31, and the first connecting shaft 3411 can rotate with the movable body 31; the other end of the first damping element 3412 is connected to the other end of the first connecting shaft 3411. Figure 1 The first damping element 3412 (shown on the left end) is detachably connected. It should be noted that "detachable" means that the first damping element 3412 and the first connecting shaft 3411 can be connected and disconnected. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the relative axial positions of the first damping element 3412 and the first connecting shaft 3411 can be fine-tuned during assembly and disassembly. Specifically, the first damping element 3412 is located on one side of the axial direction (…). Figure 1 (As shown on the right) abuts against the elastic component 342. The first damping element 3412 can rotate with the first connecting shaft 3411. During the rotation of the first damping element 3412, friction is generated between the first damping element 3412 and the elastic component 342 on one side in the axial direction. This friction can play a certain role in hindering the rotation of the first damping element 3412, thereby controlling the movement speed of the moving body 31.
[0058] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the other end of the first connecting shaft 3411 is provided with a threaded hole 3413, and the first damping member 3412 is connected to the other end of the first connecting shaft 3411. Figure 1The first damping member 3412 is fixed by the screw 3414, and the position of the first damping member 3412 in the axial direction is adjusted by adjusting the distance between the screw 3414 and the threaded hole 3413. The elastic assembly 342 is stretchable in the axial direction, that is, the position of the elastic assembly 342 in the axial direction is movable. By adjusting the position of the first damping member 3412 in the axial direction, the force with which the first damping member 3412 abuts against the elastic assembly 342 can be further adjusted, and the friction between the first damping member 3412 and the elastic assembly 342 is adjusted. In the case where the first damping member 3412 is arranged in the direction closer to the elastic assembly 342, the friction between the first damping member 3412 and the elastic assembly 342 is greater, and the control effect of the damping device on the rotating speed of the movable body is stronger. In the case where the first damping member 3412 is arranged in the direction away from the first damping member 3412, the friction between the first damping member 3412 and the elastic assembly 342 is smaller, and the control effect of the damping device on the rotating speed of the movable body is weaker. In the embodiment of the application, the first damping member and the first connecting shaft are fixed by the screw and the threaded hole, and the relative distance between the first damping member and the elastic assembly can be further adjusted by adjusting the distance between the screw and the threaded hole, so that the damping size of the damping device can be adjusted, which is beneficial to the adjustment of the rotating speed of the movable body in the scene of the first impeller with different rotating speeds, thereby improving the filtering efficiency of the filtering device.
[0059] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 6 , the elastic assembly 342 includes a second damping member 3421 and an elastic member 3422. The second damping member 3421 is movably arranged outside the first connecting shaft 3411, where the movability of the second damping member 3421 means that the second damping member 3421 can move in the axial direction, and the second damping member 3421 is arranged between the body 1 and the first damping member 3412. The elastic member 3422 is stretchable in the axial direction, and the stretchability means that the length of the elastic member 3422 in the axial direction can be lengthened and shortened. The elastic member 3422 has the ability to deform and recover from the deformation. One end of the elastic member 3422 abuts against the body 1, and the other end of the elastic member 3422 abuts against the second damping member 3421, that is, in the case where the second damping member 3421 moves relatively in the axial direction, the second damping member 3421 drives the elastic member 3422 to stretch and contract in the axial direction.
[0060] The working principle of the damping device is described as follows:
[0061] In combination with Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown, in the assembly process of the filter device, the position of the first damping member 3412 in the axial direction can be adjusted according to the rotating speed of the movable body 31, and the force of the first damping member 3412 and the second damping member 3421 abutting in the axial direction can be further adjusted by adjusting the position of the first damping member 3412 in the axial direction. Specifically, in the case of adjusting the first damping member 3412 in the direction close to the second damping member 3421, the second damping member 3421 is forced to move in the direction of extruding the elastic member 3422, and the compressed elastic member 3422 generates a counterforce to the second damping member 3421 and applies the counterforce to the first damping member 3412. In the actual use process of the filter device, since the resistance of the second damping member 3421 applied to the first damping member 3412 is large, the friction force of the second damping member 3421 on the first damping member 3412 in the rotating process is also large, so that the speed of the movable body can be greatly hindered.
[0062] In the case of adjusting the first damping member 3412 in the direction away from the second damping member 3421, the counterforce of the elastic member 3422 on the second damping member 3421 is small, so that the resistance of the second damping member 3421 applied to the first damping member 3412 is small, and the friction force of the second damping member 3421 on the first damping member 3412 in the rotating process is also small, so that the speed of the movable body can be hindered small.
[0063] It should be noted that the position of the first damping member in the axial direction in the embodiment of the application can be adjusted according to the specific damping requirement, that is, the position of the first damping member in the axial direction can be adjusted according to the rotating speed of the movable body or the rotating speed of the first impeller, so as to control the rotating speed of the movable body within a certain range, which is beneficial to more efficient guiding of the liquid by the movable body, so that the liquid can impact on the inner wall surface of the filter member more effectively, thereby improving the filtering efficiency of the filter device.
[0064] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the first impeller 32 is internally provided with a flow guide channel 320, and the first impeller 32 is further provided with a liquid inlet 321 and a liquid outlet 322 which are in communication with the flow guide channel 320, the liquid inlet 321 is used for guiding the liquid in the first cavity 20 into the flow guide channel 320, and the liquid outlet 322 is used for guiding the liquid in the flow guide channel 320 out of the first sub-cavity 311. Wherein, in the process of rotating the first impeller 32, the outline of the first impeller 32 outside will play a certain disturbance effect on the liquid in the first sub-cavity 311, through the rotation of the first impeller 32, the liquid in the first sub-cavity 311 is driven to flow, and the flow guide channel 320 is arranged in the first impeller 32, so that the liquid can move along the direction of the flow guide channel 320, thereby guiding the liquid in the first sub-cavity 311 to the direction of the liquid outlet 322, and the liquid outlet 322 is close to the second sub-cavity 312. Therefore, by arranging the flow guide channel in the first impeller, the liquid in the first sub-cavity is guided to the direction of the second sub-cavity, so that the liquid flows out of the backflow hole of the second sub-cavity to the inner wall surface of the filter screen, thereby improving the cleanliness of the cleaning of the filter screen.
[0065] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 8 The flow guide channel 320 includes a first flow guide channel 323 and a second flow guide channel 324. As shown in Figure 1 The angle θ between the extension direction of the first flow guide channel 323 and the axial direction is less than or equal to 60 degrees, and one end of the first flow guide channel 323 is in communication with the first cavity 20. The extension direction of the first flow guide channel 323 can be represented by the direction of the water flow in the first flow guide channel 323, and the angle θ between the extension direction and the axial direction can be represented by the angle between the connecting line of the first flow guide channel 323 at both ends and the axial direction. That is, the extension direction of the first flow guide channel 323 in the embodiment of the application is not necessarily a straight line direction, but also can be an arc direction. By setting the extension direction of the first flow guide channel 323 as an arc direction, the resistance of the liquid flowing in the first flow guide channel is reduced, thereby improving the cleanliness of the liquid washing the filter.
[0066] As shown in Figure 1 And Figure 8 The second flow guide channel 324 extends along the radial direction, one end of the second flow guide channel 324 is in communication with the first flow guide channel 323, and the other end of the second flow guide channel 324 is in communication with the first sub-cavity 311, and the other end of the second flow guide channel 324 is close to the second sub-cavity 312. The liquid in the first cavity flows into the first impeller 32 from the first flow guide channel 323, then flows into the second flow guide channel 324 from the first flow guide channel 323, and finally flows out of the second flow guide channel 324 into the second sub-cavity 312, and finally flows out of the backflow hole 313 of the second sub-cavity 312 into the first cavity 20 to impact the inner wall surface of the filter screen 2.
[0067] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 AndFigure 8 As shown, the first impeller 32 includes a first annular portion 325, a second annular portion 326, and a bushing 327. The first annular portion 325 is arranged axially, the second annular portion 326 is arranged axially, a portion of the second annular portion 326 is axially spaced from the first annular portion 325 to form a second flow channel 324, and the bushing 327 extends axially, as shown... Figure 8 As shown, one end of bushing 327 ( Figure 8 The left end shown is connected to the inner edge of the first annular portion 325, and is combined with it. Figure 1 As shown, the other end of the bushing 327 passes through the second annular portion 326 and is connected to the drive assembly 33. The outer surface of the bushing 327 and another portion of the second annular portion 326 form a first flow channel 323. This embodiment of the invention, by configuring the first impeller with a structure of a first annular portion, a second annular portion, and a bushing, facilitates the formation of a flow channel within the first impeller and reduces the difficulty of connecting the first impeller to the drive assembly.
[0068] In some embodiments, combined with Figures 7-9 As shown, the first impeller 32 also includes a plurality of blades 328. Each blade 328 is connected to a first annular portion 325 and a second annular portion 326, or each blade 328 is connected to the first annular portion 325, the second annular portion 326, and a bushing 327. The plurality of blades 328 are spaced apart around the axial direction, and a flow channel 320 is formed between adjacent blades 328. By providing multiple blades in the first impeller, this embodiment of the invention increases the force on the liquid in the first sub-cavity during circumferential rotation, thereby improving the efficiency of the liquid's centrifugal motion in the first sub-cavity.
[0069] In some embodiments, such as Figures 10-14 As shown, the drive assembly 33 includes a first drive device 331 and a second drive device 332. The first drive device 331 is connected to the first impeller 32 to drive the first impeller 32 to rotate relative to the second cavity 310. The second drive device 332 is connected to the second impeller 5 to drive the second impeller 5 to rotate relative to the third cavity 4. The first drive device 331 and the second drive device 332 can be respectively disposed at two pairs of ends of the main body 1, for example, as shown in the figure. Figure 2 As shown, the first drive device 331 is mounted on the left end of the body 1 via the mounting base 3312, and the first drive device 331 is located on the outside of the body 1. The second drive device 332 is located on the right end of the body 1, and the second drive device 332 is located on the inside of the body 1. By setting the first drive device 331 and the second drive device 332 at the two ends of the body 1 respectively, this embodiment of the invention helps to reduce the interference between the movement of the first impeller 32 and the second impeller 5, and improves the working efficiency of the first impeller 32 and the second impeller 5.
[0070] like Figure 10As shown, the second impeller 5 is arranged in the body 1, the second impeller 5 can rotate relative to the body 1 independently of the flushing assembly 3, and the second impeller 5 is used to drive the liquid in the body 1 to the water outlet 12. It should be noted that the second impeller 5 moves independently of the first impeller 32, the second impeller 5 can not move synchronously with the first impeller 32, and the movements of the second impeller 5 and the first impeller 32 are respectively controlled by two independent drives, so that the movement of the first impeller 32 is not limited by the second impeller 5. In the embodiment of the present application, the second impeller moves relative to the body independently of the first impeller, the second impeller can improve the efficiency of the liquid in the first cavity to the water outlet, and the movement of the first impeller is not limited by the second impeller, which is beneficial to improve the flushing efficiency of the flushing assembly.
[0071] In some embodiments, in combination Figures 10-14 As shown, the first driving device 331 is connected to the first impeller 32 through the driving shaft 3311, and the flushing assembly 3 further comprises an annular ring 340 arranged between one end of the movable body 31 and the body 1. In the case that the first impeller 32 rotates, the first impeller 32 makes the liquid in the second cavity 310 do centrifugal motion, and the movable body 31 rotates with the liquid in the second cavity 310. Since the movable body 31 is connected to the body 1 through the annular ring 340, the movable body 31 overcomes the resistance provided by the annular ring 340 during rotation, thereby reducing the speed of the movable body 31, which is beneficial to improve the flow speed of the liquid ejected from the backflow hole 313, thereby improving the impact force of the liquid on the filter element, so as to improve the cleaning degree of the filter element.
[0072] It should be noted that the resistance of the annular ring 340 in the embodiment of the present application can be realized by adjusting the material hardness, surface area size, thickness and number of the annular ring 340, for example, by arranging the annular ring 340 with larger hardness, the movable body 31 receives larger resistance during rotation, and by arranging the annular ring 340 with smaller hardness, the movable body 31 receives smaller resistance during rotation; by arranging the annular ring 340 with larger surface area, it is beneficial to increase the resistance of the annular ring 340 to the movable body 31, and by arranging the annular ring 340 with smaller surface area, it is beneficial to reduce the resistance of the annular ring 340 to the movable body 31. Or by arranging the annular ring with larger thickness, it is beneficial to increase the resistance of the annular ring 340 to the movable body 31, and by arranging the annular ring with smaller thickness, it is beneficial to reduce the resistance of the annular ring 340 to the movable body 31. It should be noted that the adjustment mode of the damping size in the embodiment of the present application includes but is not limited to the above-mentioned several modes, that is, the parameters of the annular ring 340 can be adjusted according to the specific damping requirement.
[0073] In some embodiments, as Figure 13 and Figure 14As shown, the movable body 31 comprises a passage wall 315 and an end wall 316. The passage wall 315 forms a second cavity 310 inside, and the end wall 316 is connected to one end of the passage wall 316 (e.g. the left end as shown), which is combined with Figure 13 and Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the annular ring 340 is abutted between the inner side of the end wall 316 and the body 1. The end cover of the body 1 is provided with an annular column, and the annular ring 340 is sleeved outside the annular column and abutted against the inner side of the end wall 316. In the case of rotation of the movable body 31, the annular ring 340 can provide a resistance in the circumferential direction of the movable body 31 to reduce the speed of the movable body 31. In some embodiments, the annular ring 340 can be fixed on the body 1, which helps to improve the resistance of the annular ring 340.
[0074] The embodiment of the present application also provides a cleaning device, which comprises the water pump according to any of the above embodiments. The water pump in the embodiment of the present application comprises the filter device according to any of the above embodiments. The filter device sets the flushing assembly in the filter element, and drives part of the liquid in the first cavity to flush the inner wall surface of the filter element through the movement of the flushing assembly relative to the first cavity, so that the large particles filled in the water passing gap of the filter element are separated from the filter element, the through holes on the filter element regain the water passing gap, and the flow guiding efficiency of the filter element is improved. Moreover, the embodiment of the present application flushes the inner wall surface of the filter element through the flushing assembly, and does not exert the extrusion force on the filter element, thereby reducing the problem of secondary pollution caused by the residues penetrating the filter element. The flushed residues are gathered in the water passing cavity outside the filter screen, and are conveniently discharged. Thus, the washing degree of the entire cleaning device is improved.
[0075] The above merely describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, but is not used to limit the protection scope of the present application.
