Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of filter technology, and more specifically, to a two-stage pre-filter. Background Technology
[0002] The city's water supply pipelines are old and long. Rust, silt and other impurities in the pipelines can cause water-using equipment to malfunction. Therefore, it is necessary to install filtration devices on water-using equipment. Pre-filters are usually installed after the water meter. Their main function is to restore the tap water to the standard before it leaves the factory and protect downstream equipment.
[0003] To improve filtration efficiency, pre-filters typically have filtration structures on both the inner and outer sides of the first frame to filter water. While this effectively improves water filtration, the limited gap between the two filtration layers means that impurities accumulate between them after a period of use, easily leading to blockage.
[0004] In conclusion, how to change the current situation where the pre-filter of a dual-filtration structure is prone to clogging is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0075] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0076] The core of this invention is to provide a two-stage pre-filter that effectively improves the current situation where clogging is prone to occur.
[0077] Please refer to Figures 1 to 20 This invention provides a two-stage pre-filter, comprising a valve body assembly 1, a filter element assembly 3, and a flow divider assembly 2. The valve body assembly 1 includes a valve head 11, a first valve bottle 12, and a second valve bottle 13, both of which are sealed and wrapped around the circumferential surface of the middle portion of the valve head 11. The flow divider assembly 2 is disposed inside the valve head 11, dividing the inner cavity of the valve head 11 into a first chamber 111 and a second chamber 112. The side wall of the first chamber 111 has an opening for liquid to flow into the first chamber 111, and the side wall of the second chamber 112 has an opening for liquid to flow out of the second chamber 112. The first valve bottle 12... A first through hole 113 is provided at the intersection of the tube wall of the first chamber 111 and a second through hole 114 is provided at the intersection of the tube wall of the second valve bottle 13 and the second chamber 112. The filter element assembly 3 includes a first filter element 31 and a second filter element 32. The first filter element 31 is inserted into the interior of the first valve bottle 12, and the top outlet of the first filter element 31 is connected to the inner cavity of the second valve bottle 13 and is independent of the inner cavity of the second filter element 32. The second filter element 32 is sealed and inserted into the interior of the second valve bottle 13 through the second through hole 114.
[0078] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the valve body assembly 1 is the main pipe 1151 structure of the pre-filter, used to install and support the filter assembly and the diversion assembly 2, etc. The valve head 11 and the valve bottle are both hollow structures, and the valve bottle is wrapped around the circumference of the valve head 11.
[0079] In filter element assembly 3, both the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32 are used to filter the liquid flowing into the pre-filter, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the first filter element 31 is inserted into the first valve bottle 12, and the second filter element 32 is inserted into the second valve bottle 13.
[0080] The diversion assembly 2 is used to divide the inner cavity of the valve head 11 into two independent first chambers 111 and second chambers 112. This can be achieved by having a sealing baffle in the middle of the valve head 11, located between the first through hole 113 and the second through hole 114, with the circumferential surface of the baffle fitting against the inner wall of the valve head 11. Furthermore, an annular groove is formed on the circumferential surface of the baffle, and a sealing ring is embedded in this annular groove, thereby dividing the valve head 11 into the first chamber 111 and the second chamber 112. The tube wall of chamber 111 has a through hole to allow liquid to flow into the first chamber 111, and a first through hole 113 is provided at the intersection of the first valve bottle 12 and the tube wall of the first chamber 111, so that the liquid in the first chamber 111 can flow into the inner cavity of the first valve bottle 12; the tube wall of the second chamber 112 has a through hole to allow liquid to flow out of the second chamber 112, and a second through hole 114 is provided at the intersection of the second valve bottle 13 and the tube wall of the second chamber 112.
[0081] The top opening of the first filter element 31 is connected to the inner cavity of the second valve bottle 13 through a pipe or the like, and the top opening of the first filter element 31 and the inner cavity of the second filter element 32 are independent of each other, so that the liquid in the first filter element 31 can only flow into the second valve bottle 13.
[0082] The second filter element 32 is inserted into the second through hole 114, and the circumferential surface of the second filter element 32 is sealed with the hole wall of the second through hole 114. Optionally, the second filter element 32 is fitted with the hole wall of the second through hole 114, or a sealing ring is provided on the outside of the second filter element 32 to effectively prevent the liquid in the second valve bottle 13 from flowing into the gap between the second filter element 32 and the second through hole 114. In this case, the liquid in the second filter element 32 can only flow into the second chamber 112.
[0083] It should be noted that the types of the first through hole 113 and the second through hole 114 are not limited, as long as the above functions can be achieved.
[0084] When using, such as Figure 3 and Figure 9 As shown, the liquid first flows into the first chamber 111, then through the first through hole 113 into the inner cavity of the first valve bottle 12. The liquid passes through the side wall of the first filter element 31 and enters the interior of the first filter element 31, achieving primary filtration. Next, the liquid flowing out of the first filter element 31 flows into the interior of the second valve bottle 13. The liquid passes through the side wall of the second filter element 32 and enters the interior of the second filter element 32, achieving secondary filtration. Finally, the liquid flows out sequentially through the second through hole 114 and the second chamber 112.
[0085] The pre-filter achieves two-stage filtration through two filter elements. The first filter element 31 is inserted into the first valve bottle 12, and the second filter element 32 is inserted into the second valve bottle 13. The first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32 are relatively independent, which greatly reduces the possibility of clogging.
[0086] Based on the above embodiments, the valve head 11 includes an inner layer structure 115 and an outer layer structure 116. The inner layer structure 115 is a four-way pipe, including a main pipe 1151, a first branch pipe 1152, a second branch pipe 1153, and a third branch pipe 1154. The first end of the main pipe 1151 is sealed and inserted into the first end of the outer layer structure 116, and the second end of the main pipe 1151 is sealed and inserted into the second end of the outer layer structure 116. A first chamber 111 is located at the first end of the main pipe 1151, and a second chamber 112 is located at the second end of the main pipe 1151. The main pipe 1151 passes through the inner cavity of the first branch pipe 1152, and... The inner cavities at the first and second ends of the first branch pipe 1152 are independent of each other; the first end of the first branch pipe 1152 is sealed and inserted into the first valve bottle 12, and the second end is sealed and inserted into the second valve bottle 13; the second branch pipe 1153 and the third branch pipe 1154 are both located inside the first branch pipe 1152, the second branch pipe 1153 is connected to the inner cavity at the second end of the first branch pipe 1152, the second branch pipe 1153 is sealed and inserted into the first filter element 31, and the second through hole 114 is the inner cavity of the third branch pipe 1154; the outer layer structure 116 has two hollow threaded structures 1162 in the middle, which are threadedly connected to the first valve bottle 12 and the second valve bottle 13.
[0087] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 11 As shown, the outer structure 116 has a sleeve 1161 extending laterally, and two hollow threaded structures 1162 extending from the middle of the sleeve 1161. The inner wall of the threaded structure 1162 has internal threads, and the outer peripheral surfaces of the first valve bottle 12 and the second valve bottle 13 have external threads, thereby realizing the threaded connection between the threaded structure 1162 and the first valve bottle 12 and the second valve bottle 13.
[0088] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 12 As shown, the inner structure 115 is a four-way pipe, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the main pipe 1151 extends in the same direction as the sleeve 1161. The first branch pipe 1152, the second branch pipe 1153, and the third branch pipe 1154 are all pipe joints extending from the middle of the main pipe 1151. The cross-sectional dimension of the upper end of the first branch pipe 1152 is larger than the dimension of the main pipe 1151 through which it passes. The middle part of the first branch pipe 1152 has a barrier structure, which divides the inner cavity at the upper end and the inner cavity at the lower end of the first branch pipe 1152 into two independent parts.
[0089] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 12As shown, a first through hole 113 is provided on the lower side of the main pipe 1151, so that the inner cavity of the lower end of the first branch pipe 1152 is connected to the first chamber 111 through the first through hole 113; a second branch pipe 1153 is sleeved inside the lower end of the first branch pipe 1152, the intersection of the second branch pipe 1153 and the main pipe 1151 is closed, and the upper end of the second branch pipe 1153 extends into the inner cavity of the upper end of the first branch pipe 1152, so that the inner cavity of the second branch pipe 1153 is connected to the inner cavity of the upper end of the first branch pipe 1152; a third branch pipe 1154 is sleeved on the upper end of the first branch pipe 1152, and a second through hole 114 is provided at the intersection of the third branch pipe 1154 and the main pipe 1151, so that the inner cavity of the third branch pipe 1154 is connected to the second chamber 112 through the second through hole 114.
[0090] Optional, such as Figure 13 As shown, the second branch pipe 1153 and the third branch pipe 1154 are arranged in the same line. At this time, the outer side of the third branch pipe 1154 is not provided with any through hole to prevent the second branch pipe 1153 and the third branch pipe 1154 from being directly connected. With this arrangement, the pre-filter achieves a miniaturized design. Alternatively, the second branch pipe 1153 and the third branch pipe 1154 can be arranged in a staggered manner.
[0091] After assembly, such as Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 11 As shown, the left end of the main pipe 1151 is inserted into the left end of the sleeve 1161, and the right end of the main pipe 1151 is inserted into the right end of the sleeve 1161. Sealing rings are fitted around both the left and right ends of the main pipe 1151 to achieve a sealed connection and seal the gaps between the two ends of the main pipe 1151 and the sleeve 1161. The upper end of the first branch pipe 1152 is inserted into the upper second valve bottle 13, and the lower end is inserted into the lower first valve bottle 12. Sealing rings are fitted around both the upper and lower circumferences of the first branch pipe 1152. The first branch pipe 1152 is sealed to block the gap between the first valve bottle 12 and the second valve bottle 13. The second branch pipe 1153 is inserted into the first filter element 31, and the circumference of the second branch pipe 1153 is fitted with a sealing ring to seal the gap between the second branch pipe 1153 and the first filter element 31. The third branch pipe 1154 is inserted into the second filter element 32. Similarly, the circumference of the third branch pipe 1154 is fitted with a sealing ring to seal the gap between the third branch pipe 1154 and the second filter element 32.
[0092] When using, such as Figure 3 and Figure 9As shown, the liquid first flows into the first chamber 111, then flows into the inner cavity of the first valve bottle 12 below through the lower end of the first branch pipe 1152. The liquid passes through the side wall of the first filter element 31 and enters the interior of the first filter element 31, achieving primary filtration. Next, the liquid flowing out of the first filter element 31 flows into the interior of the second valve bottle 13 through the second branch pipe 1153. The liquid passes through the side wall of the second filter element 32 and enters the interior of the second filter element 32, achieving secondary filtration. Finally, the liquid flows out through the third branch pipe 1154 and the second chamber 112.
[0093] In some embodiments, the diversion assembly 2 includes a first adapter 21, the bottom end of which is sealed and inserted into a first filter element 31, and the top end of which is sealed and inserted into a second branch pipe 1153, so that the first filter element 31 is located at the center of the first valve bottle 12; in some embodiments, the diversion assembly 2 also includes a second adapter 22, the top end of which is sealed and inserted into a second filter element 32, and the bottom end of which is sealed and inserted into a third branch pipe 1154, so that the second filter element 32 is located at the center of the second valve bottle 13.
[0094] like Figures 2 to 10 As shown, the first through hole 113 is located on the left side, and the second through hole 114 is located on the right side. To position the first filter element 31 at the central axis of the first valve bottle 12, a first adapter 21 with a bent axis connects the inner cavity of the first filter element 31 to the inner cavity of the second valve bottle 13. Specifically, the first adapter 21 is a hollow bent tube structure, as shown... Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the upper end of the first adapter 21 is inserted into and connected to the second branch pipe 1153, and a sealing ring is sandwiched between the first adapter 21 and the peripheral wall of the second branch pipe 1153 to achieve a sealed connection, thereby sealing the gap between the second branch pipe 1153 and the first adapter 21; the lower end of the first adapter 21 is inserted into and connected to the first filter element 31, and another sealing ring is sandwiched between the first adapter 21 and the first filter element 31 to achieve a sealed connection, thereby sealing the gap between the first filter element 31 and the first adapter 21. This arrangement positions the first filter element 31 at the axial position of the first valve bottle 12 via the first adapter 21, facilitating assembly and maintenance, and ensuring the primary filtration and backwashing effect of the pre-filter.
[0095] Similarly, to position the second filter element 32 at the central axis of the second valve bottle 13, a second adapter 22 with a bend in its axis connects the inner cavity of the second filter element 32 to the second chamber 112. Specifically, the second adapter 22 is a hollow bend tube structure, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the lower end of the second adapter 22 is inserted into and connected to the third branch pipe 1154, and a sealing ring is sandwiched between the second adapter 22 and the peripheral wall of the third branch pipe 1154 to achieve a sealed connection, thereby sealing the gap between the third branch pipe 1154 and the second adapter 22; the upper end of the second adapter 22 is inserted into and connected to the second filter element 32, and another sealing ring is sandwiched between the second adapter 22 and the second filter element 32 to achieve a sealed connection, thereby sealing the gap between the second filter element 32 and the second adapter 22. This arrangement positions the second filter element 32 at the axial position of the second valve bottle 13 via the second adapter 22, facilitating assembly and maintenance, and ensuring the primary filtration and backwashing effect of the pre-filter.
[0096] Based on the above embodiment, the first valve bottle 12 is located at the bottom of the valve head 11, and the diversion assembly 2 further includes a valve ball 23 and a handle 24; the valve ball 23 is rotatably embedded in the first chamber 111, and the circumferential surface of the valve ball 23 has three openings, and the interior of the valve ball 23 has a channel connecting each opening; the handle 24 is rotatably disposed on the valve body assembly 1, and the handle 24 is fixedly connected to the valve ball 23, so as to switch the secondary pre-filter to a filtration state, a backwash state, or a closed state; in the filtration state, the liquid flowing into the first chamber 111 can pass through the valve ball 23. The liquid flows through the first through hole 113 into the inner cavity of the first valve bottle 12, and sequentially through the first filter element 31, the inner cavity of the second valve bottle 13, the second filter element 32, the second through hole 114, and the second chamber 112. In the backwashing state, the liquid flowing into the first chamber 111 can flow through the valve ball 23 and the second through hole 114 into the inner cavity of the second filter element 32, and sequentially through the second valve bottle 13, the first filter element 31, the first valve bottle 12, and the drain port at the tail end of the first valve bottle 12. In the closed state, the liquid flowing into the first chamber 111 cannot pass through the valve ball 23.
[0097] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, a valve ball 23 is fitted into the first chamber 111, wherein the diameter of the valve ball 23 is equal to the diameter of the pipe wall of the first chamber 111, and the valve ball 23 can selectively connect the first chamber 111, the second chamber 112, and the first through hole 113 by rotating. A rotatable handle 24 is provided on the valve body assembly 1, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, one end of the handle 24 is located outside the valve body assembly 1 for the operator to rotate, and the other end of the handle 24 extends into the inner cavity of the valve body assembly 1 and is fixedly connected to the valve ball 23, so that the handle 24 can drive the valve ball 23 to rotate, thereby adjusting the openings of the valve ball 23 to realize the switching of the working state of the pre-filter.
[0098] It is feasible that the end of the first chamber 111, the end of the second chamber 112, the first valve bottle 12, and the second valve bottle 13 are all located on the same side of the valve ball 23, and a set of openings are opened on both sides of the valve ball 23. One set of openings meets the requirements of the filtration state, and the other set meets the requirements of the backwash state. When in use, the valve ball 23 is rotated so that the two sets of openings on the circumference of the valve ball 23 are activated respectively, or the part of the valve ball 23 without openings is opposite to the part of the side wall of the first chamber 111 with through holes, so that it can switch between the filtration state, the backwash state, and the closed state.
[0099] To control the outflow or stopflow of liquid from the first valve bottle 12, the following can be achieved: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a through hole is provided at the bottom end of the first valve bottle 12 located below as a drain outlet, and a plug is provided in the drain outlet, so as to control the liquid to flow out from the bottom end of the first valve bottle 12 or stop the flow.
[0100] In use, the pre-filter is adjusted to the filtration state by rotating the valve ball 23 with the handle 24. After the liquid flows into the first chamber 111, it passes through the opening of the valve ball 23 and its internal channel to connect with the first through hole 113, allowing the liquid to flow into the first valve bottle 12. Then, the liquid flows into the interior of the first filter element 31 to achieve primary filtration. Further, the liquid flows from the first filter element 31 into the second valve bottle 13, and then into the interior of the second filter element 32 to achieve secondary filtration. Finally, it flows out through the second through hole 114 and the second chamber 112. The pre-filter is adjusted to the backwash state by rotating the valve ball 23 with the handle 24. After the liquid flows into the first chamber 111, it flows into the second chamber 112 through the opening of the valve ball 23 and its internal channel. Then, the liquid flows into the second filter element 32 through the second through hole 114. The liquid passes through the side wall of the second filter element 32 into the second valve bottle 13 and then into the interior of the first filter element 31. It then passes through the side wall of the first filter element 31 into the first valve bottle 12, and finally flows out from the drain port at the bottom of the first valve bottle 12.
[0101] In this embodiment, the pre-filter can switch between filtration and backwashing states, so that the pre-filter can both filter the liquid and perform backwashing, effectively ensuring the filtration effect of the pre-filter and extending its service life.
[0102] Based on the above embodiment, a drain assembly 4 is inserted into the tail end of the inner cavity of the first valve bottle 12; the drain assembly 4 includes a funnel 41 and a hollow first sealing member 42, the bottom opening of the funnel 41 is connected to the through hole in the middle of the first sealing member 42; the tail end of the first valve bottle 12 has a third through hole 121, the bottom end of the first sealing member 42 is sealed and inserted into the third through hole 121, and a first switch member 43 for opening or closing the through hole in the middle of the first sealing member 42 is provided in the through hole in the middle of the first sealing member 42.
[0103] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first valve bottle 12 is located below the valve head 11, and a drain assembly 4 is provided at the lower end of the first valve bottle 12 for draining impurities from the first valve bottle 12, the first filter element 31, and the second valve bottle 13. The bottom end of the first filter element 31 is closed, so when the liquid in the first filter element 31 flows outward, it must pass through its own side wall used for filtering the liquid, so as to rinse the filtration structure on the side wall of the first filter element 31. The funnel 41 is fitted inside the first valve bottle 12, so that the impurities in the first valve bottle 12 can flow into the funnel 41. A sealing ring is fitted around the funnel 41 to seal the gap between the funnel 41 and the first valve bottle 12.
[0104] Preferred, such as Figure 16 As shown, the lower end of the first filter element 31 extends into the inner cavity of the funnel 41, and the bottom of the first filter element 31 has a hollow spiral structure. When the liquid flows downward through the spiral structure, it has a large force, which is conducive to pushing the impurities out, so as to ensure that the impurities are discharged cleanly.
[0105] The first sealing element 42 has a cylindrical structure, such as Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the lower end of the funnel 41 is inserted into the upper end of the first seal 42, and the two can be connected by an interference fit, or, as... Figure 14 As shown, the lower end of the funnel 41 has an octagonal rib structure, and there is a gap between the rib structure and the funnel 41 body, such as... Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the upper end of the first sealing member 42 has an octagonal cross-section and is inserted into the aforementioned gap; thus, the liquid flowing out of the lower end opening of the funnel 41 can flow into the through hole in the middle of the first sealing member 42.
[0106] like Figure 15 As shown, the lower end face of the first valve bottle 12 has a third through hole 121 along the longitudinal direction. After assembly, as shown... Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first sealing member 42 is inserted into the third through hole 121, and the circumferential surface of the first sealing member 42 is fitted onto the sealing ring to seal the gap between the first sealing member 42 and the third through hole 121; furthermore, the first switch member 43 is inserted into the through hole in the middle of the first sealing member 42, and the first switch member 43 can be a plug or a valve, etc.
[0107] When using, adjust the pre-filter to backwash mode, such as... Figure 4 and Figure 10 As shown, when the first switch 43 at the lower end of the first valve bottle 12 is opened, the liquid in the second filter element 32 passes through its side wall and enters the second valve bottle 13. The liquid in the second valve bottle 13 flows into the first filter element 31 through the second through hole 114. The liquid in the first filter element 31 flows into the inner cavity of the first valve bottle 12 through its own side wall, and then flows downward into the inner cavity of the funnel 41. The impurities and liquid in the funnel 41 continue to flow downward into the through hole in the middle of the first seal 42. Finally, the liquid flows out from the first switch 43 opened below the first valve bottle 12 or flows out directly from the through hole in the middle of the first seal 42. Adjust the pre-filter to the filtering state and close the first switch 43 below the first valve bottle 12.
[0108] Optional, such as Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a hollow first cover 44 is fitted on the outer side of the lower end of the first valve bottle 12. The first cover 44 is threadedly connected to the first sealing element 42. This arrangement helps to improve the stability and high pressure resistance of the first filter element 31 and the sewage discharge assembly 4.
[0109] In some embodiments, the second valve bottle 13 is located at the top of the valve head 11, and the tail end of the second valve bottle 13 is provided with a water outlet assembly 5. The water outlet assembly 5 includes a hollow connector 51 and a hollow second seal 52. The bottom end of the connector 51 is sealed and inserted into the second filter element 32, and the top end of the connector 51 is sealed and inserted into the bottom end of the second seal 52. The tail end of the second valve bottle 13 has a fourth through hole 131. The top end of the second seal 52 is sealed and inserted into the fourth through hole 131, and a second switch 53 for opening or closing the through hole in the middle of the second seal 52 is provided in the middle through hole of the second seal 52.
[0110] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second valve bottle 13 is located above the valve head 11, and a water outlet assembly 5 is provided at the upper end of the second valve bottle 13 for discharging the liquid in the second filter element 32. The upper end of the second filter element 32 is inserted into the lower end of the connector 51, and the tail end of the second filter element 32 extends into the connector 51 to connect the inner cavity of the second filter element 32 with the inner cavity of the connector 51. A sealing ring is provided on the circumferential surface of the upper end of the second filter element 32 or the circumferential surface of the connector 51 to seal the gap between the second filter element 32 and the connector 51, so that the liquid in the second filter element 32 can only flow into the inner cavity of the connection. The upper end of the connector 51 is inserted into the lower end of the second sealing element 52, and a sealing ring is provided on the circumferential surface of the connector 51 to seal the gap between the connector 51 and the second sealing element 52.
[0111] like Figure 15 As shown, the upper end of the inverted second valve bottle 13 has a fourth through hole 131. After assembly, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, the upper end of the second sealing member 52 is inserted into the fourth through hole 131, and the circumferential surface of the second sealing member 52 is fitted onto the sealing ring to seal the gap between the second sealing member 52 and the fourth through hole 131; furthermore, the second switch member 53 is inserted into the through hole in the middle of the second sealing member 52, and the second switch member 53 can be a plug or a valve, etc.
[0112] When using it, adjust the pre-filter to the filtering state, such as... Figure 3 As shown, when the second switch 53 at the upper end of the second valve bottle 13 is opened, some of the liquid in the second filter element 32 flows upward, and then flows into the through hole in the middle of the second seal 52 through the inner cavity of the connector 51. Finally, the liquid flows out from the second switch 53 opened above the second valve bottle 13 or flows out directly from the through hole in the middle of the second seal 52.
[0113] It should be noted that the second switch 53 at the tail end of the first valve bottle 12 and the second switch 53 at the tail end of the second valve bottle 13 can be the same or different, as long as the above functions can be achieved.
[0114] In some embodiments, the second valve bottle 13 is located on top of the valve head 11, and the peripheral wall of the second valve bottle 13 is a closed structure, specifically, as shown in... Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the side wall of the upper second valve bottle 13 does not have a through hole, so the liquid in the second filter bottle 13 can only flow to the interior of the first filter element 31 through the second through hole 114. With this setting, the pressure resistance of the pre-filter is high, whether in the filtration state or the backwashing state.
[0115] Optional, such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, a hollow second cover 54 is fitted on the outer side of the upper end of the second valve bottle 13. The second cover 54 is threadedly connected to the second sealing element 52. This arrangement helps to improve the stability and high pressure resistance of the second filter element 32 and the water outlet assembly 5.
[0116] Based on the above embodiment, the valve ball 23 is disposed in the first chamber 111 through the rubber part 25. The valve ball 23 is rotatably fitted into the inner cavity of the rubber part 25 to reduce the wear between the valve ball 23 and the valve head 11 and to seal the gap between the valve ball 23 and the valve head 11.
[0117] Specifically, the rubber component 25 adopts a one-piece molded rubber structure, allowing it to be embedded in the inner cavity of the valve head 11. The two circumferential surfaces of the rubber component 25 are in contact with the inner wall surface of the valve head 11, ensuring that all liquid flowing into the first chamber 111 flows into the rubber component 25, and all liquid flowing out of the rubber component 25 flows according to a preset flow path; such as Figure 17 As shown, the rubber part 25 has openings at its left end, right end, and middle sidewall. After assembly, as... Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the left end opening of the rubber component 25 connects to the first chamber 111, the right end opening connects to the second chamber 112, and the middle opening connects to the first through hole 113. The peripheral wall of the valve ball 23 is tightly fitted to the inner wall of the rubber component 25, thereby preventing liquid from flowing through the gap between the valve ball 23 and the rubber component 25.
[0118] In use, the liquid flowing into the first chamber 111 first flows into the inner cavity of the rubber component 25, and then flows through the opening of the valve ball 23 and the rubber component 25 to the first valve bottle 12 or the second chamber 112 to meet the requirements of filtration and backwashing. In this embodiment, the gap between the valve ball 23 and the valve head 11 is sealed by the rubber component 25 to ensure the function of the valve ball 23 and to reduce wear between the valve ball 23 and the valve head 11, thereby effectively extending the service life of the pre-filter.
[0119] In some embodiments, the valve head 11 has a protrusion structure 117 between the first chamber 111 and the second chamber 112, the first end of the rubber member 25 abuts against the protrusion structure 117, and a clamping member 6 is threadedly connected in the first chamber 111, the clamping member 6 abuts against the second end of the rubber member 25.
[0120] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the two ends of the rubber part 25 abut against the protruding structure 117 and the clamping member 6 inside the valve head 11, respectively, thereby effectively preventing misalignment between the rubber part 25 and the valve ball 23, ensuring the function of the pre-filter. Preferably, as shown... Figure 18 As shown, the central through hole of the clamping member 6 is a countersunk hole, and the end of the countersunk hole with a larger cross-sectional size is close to the rubber member 25, so that the end of the rubber member 25 is inserted into the countersunk hole and abuts against the clamping member 6, so as to effectively ensure the conduction between the rubber member 25 and the clamping member 6, and facilitate the installation of the clamping member 6 and the rubber member 25 into place.
[0121] Furthermore, such as Figure 18 As shown, the end of the clamping member 6 furthest from the rubber member 25 has a limiting structure, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, after the clamping member 6 is screwed into the valve head 11, the limiting structure abuts against the bottom of the groove at the end of the valve head 11, thereby preventing the clamping member 6 from being screwed in too much, so as to prevent the valve ball 23 from being over-compressed and unable to rotate.
[0122] It should be noted that, as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the clamping member 6 has a groove on its circumference for setting a sealing ring to seal the gap between the clamping member 6 and the valve head 11.
[0123] Based on the above embodiment, the first filter element 31 is provided with a first water distribution component 26 on its circumferential surface. The first water distribution component 26 is sealed and inserted into the first valve bottle 12, and the first water distribution component 26 is located at the end of the first valve bottle 12 near the valve head 11. The end of the first water distribution component 26 away from the valve head 11 has an inclined blade 261 to guide the liquid to flow in a swirling direction.
[0124] Specifically, such as Figure 19 As shown, the first water distribution component 26 has a cylindrical structure, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the first filter element 31 passes through the through hole in the middle of the first water distribution component 26. Optionally, the first water distribution component 26 is interference-fitted into the inside of the first valve bottle 12, or, as... Figure 19 As shown, the upper end of the circumferential surface of the first water distribution component 26 has a protrusion, such as... Figure 15 As shown, a groove is provided at the upper end of the inner cavity of the first valve bottle 12. The groove and the protrusion cooperate with each other and are pressed by the valve head 11 to define the position of the first water distribution component 26. Furthermore, an annular groove is provided in the middle or lower end of the circumference of the first water distribution component 26, and a sealing ring is provided in the annular groove, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, this is to seal the gap between the first valve bottle 12 and the first water distribution component 26.
[0125] like Figure 19 As shown, the lower end face of the first water distribution component 26 has several through holes around itself, so that the liquid can flow into the first valve bottle 12 after passing through. At the end of each through hole, there is an inclined blade 261, and each inclined blade 261 faces the same direction, so that the liquid flowing through the first water distribution component 26 flows in a swirling direction. This arrangement is beneficial to promote the filtration of the liquid through the first filter element 31 after entering the first valve bottle 12.
[0126] In some embodiments, a second water distribution element 27 is sleeved on the circumferential surface of the second filter element 32. The second water distribution element 27 is sealed and inserted into the second valve bottle 13, and the second water distribution element 27 is located at the end of the second valve bottle 13 near the valve head 11. The end of the second water distribution element 27 away from the valve head 11 has an inclined blade 261 to guide the liquid to flow in a swirling direction.
[0127] Similarly, such as Figure 19 As shown, the second water distribution component 27 has a cylindrical structure, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the second filter element 32 passes through the through hole in the middle of the second water distribution component 27. Optionally, the second water distribution component 27 is interference-fitted into the interior of the second valve bottle 13, or, as... Figure 19 As shown, there is a protrusion at the upper end of the circumferential surface of the inverted second water distribution component 27, such as... Figure 15As shown, a groove is provided at the upper end of the inner cavity of the inverted second valve bottle 13. The groove and the protrusion cooperate with each other and are pressed by the valve head 11 to define the position of the second water distributor 27. Furthermore, an annular groove is provided in the middle or lower end of the circumference of the inverted second water distributor 27, and a sealing ring is provided in the annular groove. Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, this is to seal the gap between the second valve bottle 13 and the second water distribution component 27.
[0128] like Figure 19 As shown, the inverted second water distributor 27 has several through holes around its lower end face, allowing liquid to pass through and flow into the second valve bottle 13. Each through hole has an inclined blade 261 at its end, and each inclined blade 261 faces the same direction, so that the liquid flowing through the second water distributor 27 flows in a swirling direction. This arrangement helps to facilitate the filtration of the liquid through the second filter element 32 after it enters the second valve bottle 13.
[0129] Based on the above embodiments, both the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32 include a first frame 301 and a first filter screen 302. The first frame 301 has a cylindrical structure, and the first filter screen 302 is sleeved on the outside of the corresponding first frame 301.
[0130] Specifically, such as Figure 16 As shown, the first frame 301 has a cylindrical structure, and a first filter screen 302 is fitted on the circumferential surface of the first frame 301. The first filter screen 302 can be fixed by a clamp or pressed by a first filter screen cover 33. Several through holes are opened on the circumferential wall of the first frame 301 covered by the first filter screen 302, so that liquid can pass through the first filter screen 302 and the first frame 301. In this embodiment, the first filter screen 302 is not easily deformed by the support of the first frame 301, so as to ensure the filtration function of the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32.
[0131] When necessary, such as Figure 2 As shown, annular grooves are provided on the upper and lower circumferential surfaces of the first frame 301 to provide sealing rings, thereby sealing the gaps between the upper end of the first filter screen 302 and the upper end of the first frame 301, and between the lower end of the first filter screen 302 and the lower end of the first frame 301.
[0132] In some embodiments, the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32 both include a first filter cover 33, each first frame 301 is inserted into the central through hole of the corresponding first filter cover 33, and the inner wall of each first filter cover 33 abuts against the corresponding first filter 302.
[0133] like Figure 20As shown, the first filter cover 33 has a hollow structure. The lower end of the first frame 301 passes through the through hole at the center of the first filter cover 33, which can be achieved. The inner wall of the first filter cover 33 has a protrusion, and a groove is formed on the circumferential surface of the first frame 301. The first filter cover 33 and the first frame 301 are fixedly connected by the cooperation of the protrusion and the groove, or the first frame 301 and the first filter cover 33 are interference-fitted, etc. Figure 2 As shown, the lower inner wall of the first filter cover 33, which cooperates with the first frame 301 in the second filter element 32, contacts the upper circumferential surface of the first filter 302 in the second filter element 32, and the upper inner wall of the first filter 33, which cooperates with the first frame 301 in the first filter element 31, contacts the lower circumferential surface of the first filter 302 in the first filter element 31. Thus, the first filter cover 33 can press down the upper end of the first filter 302 in the second filter element 32 and the lower end of the first filter 302 in the first filter element 31 to prevent the first filter 302 from shifting or falling off.
[0134] Based on the above embodiments, the first filter element 31 includes a second frame 303 and a plurality of stacked pieces 304. The second frame 303 is provided with stacked pieces 304, a base support 36, a compression spring 37 and a third filter cover 35 sequentially from top to bottom on its circumferential surface. One end of the compression spring 37 abuts against the third filter cover 35 and the other end abuts against the base support 36. The second filter element 32 includes a third frame 305 and a second filter 306. The third frame 305 has a cylindrical structure and the second filter 306 is sleeved on the outside of the third frame 305.
[0135] like Figure 6 As shown, the first filter element 31 contains a cylindrical second frame 303 inside, and the stacked plates 304 have an annular structure. Each stacked plate 304 is stacked and fitted on the outside of the second frame 303, with gaps between each stacked plate to allow liquid to flow through. Several through holes are provided on the peripheral wall of the second frame 303 covered by each stacked plate 304, so that liquid can pass through the second frame 303 and each stacked plate 304, and the second frame 303 supports each stacked plate 304.
[0136] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the lower circumferential surface of the second frame 303 is also fitted with an annular base 36, a compression spring 37, and a third filter cover 35. The stacked pieces 304, the base 36, the compression spring 37, and the third filter cover 35 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The base 36 is in direct contact with the bottommost stacked piece 304, thereby protecting each stacked piece 304. The compression spring 37 is sandwiched between the base 36 and the third filter cover 35, and the third filter cover 35 is relatively fixed to the second frame 303, that is, the third filter cover 35 will not move arbitrarily when subjected to external force, so as to stably support the compression spring 37.
[0137] When using, adjust the pre-filter to backwash mode, such as... Figure 10 As shown, the liquid in the upper second valve bottle 13 flows into the first filter element 31 through the second through hole 114. Then, when the liquid in the first filter element 31 flows out through its side wall, the compression spring 37 is compressed and contracts, and the gap between each stack of plates 304 becomes larger, which helps to improve the sewage discharge function of the pre-filter.
[0138] In some embodiments, a second filter cover 34 is fitted onto the tail end of the second filter element 32, and the inner wall of the bottom end of the second filter cover 34 abuts against the second filter 306. Similarly, as Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the lower inner wall of the second filter cover 34 contacts the circumferential surface of the upper end of the second filter 306, so that the upper end of the second filter 306 can be pressed by the second filter cover 34 to prevent it from shifting or falling off.
[0139] It should be noted that the first frame 301, the second frame 303, and the third frame 305 can be the same or different, as long as they meet the above functions; similarly, the first filter cover 33, the second filter cover 34, and the third filter cover 35 can be the same or different, as long as they meet the above functions.
[0140] Preferably, the first filter screen 302 and the second filter screen 306 are made of 361 stainless steel to ensure the filtration effect and effectively extend the service life of the pre-filter.
[0141] In some embodiments, the opening of the first chamber 111 is sealed with a first union 7; in some embodiments, the opening of the second chamber 112 is sealed with a second union 8.
[0142] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a first union 7 is provided at the end of the pipe wall of the first chamber 111, which can be welded together. Similarly, a second union 8 is provided at the end of the pipe wall of the second chamber 112. With this arrangement, the pre-filter can be easily connected to the end of the water pipe through the first union 7 and the second union 8.
[0143] In some embodiments, the first union 7 is collinear with the end of the valve head 11 having a first chamber 111 and is threadedly connected; in some embodiments, the second union 8 is collinear with the end of the valve head 11 having a second chamber 112 and is threadedly connected.
[0144] Optional, such as Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the circumferential surface of the first union 7 and the end circumferential surface of the first chamber 111 pipe wall both have external threads, which are connected to the first union 7 and the end thread of the first chamber 111 pipe wall through the internal thread in the through hole in the middle of the threaded part 9; similarly, as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the circumferential surface of the second union 8 and the end circumferential surface of the second chamber 112 pipe wall both have external threads, which are connected to the second union 8 and the end thread of the second chamber 112 pipe wall through the internal thread in the through hole in the middle of the threaded part 9.
[0145] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, a gasket is sandwiched between the opposite ends of the second union 8 and the valve head 11, and between the opposite ends of the second union 8 and the valve head 11, to prevent liquid from leaking out from the connection position.
[0146] Optionally, the first union 7 has an external thread on its circumferential surface and an internal thread at the end of the first chamber 111 pipe wall, so that the first union 7 can be screwed into the first chamber 111 of the valve head 11; similarly, the second union 8 has an external thread on its circumferential surface and an internal thread at the end of the second chamber 112 pipe wall, so that the second union 8 can be screwed into the second chamber 112 of the valve head 11.
[0147] In some embodiments, a pressure gauge is provided on the side wall of the second chamber 112, and the test contact of the pressure gauge is located in the second chamber 112. When in use, the water pressure of the output liquid of the filter can be obtained through the pressure gauge, which helps to ensure water safety and stability.
[0148] Preferably, the pressure gauge and the handle 24 are located on the same side outside the valve head 11. In use, the pressure gauge and the handle 24 are both positioned away from the cavity. This arrangement makes it easy to operate the handle 24 and to observe the pressure gauge.
[0149] In some embodiments, the interior of the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32 is filled with scale-inhibiting filter media. During filtration, liquid flows into the inner cavity of the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32 in sequence, and the liquid first flows through the scale-inhibiting filter media in the inner cavity of the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32. This arrangement effectively prevents the generation of a large amount of scale in the pipeline connected to the opening end of the second chamber 112 of the filter, so as to ensure the purity of the water used.
[0150] It should be noted that there are no restrictions on the type of scale inhibitor filter media, such as silicon phosphate crystal scale inhibitor filter media, calcium sulfite scale inhibitor filter media, etc., as long as they can achieve the above functions.
[0151] Optionally, the scale-inhibiting filter media is filled inside the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32 by means of a cloth tape. Alternatively, the scale-inhibiting filter media is filled inside the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32 by means of a bag-shaped filter screen. This arrangement facilitates the assembly, maintenance and replacement of the filter media.
