[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0026] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth" and the like in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order. The terms "include" and "have" and any variations thereof in the embodiments of the present application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product or device including a series of steps or units need not be limited to only those steps or units clearly listed, but can include other steps or units not clearly listed or inherent to the process, method, product or device.

[0027] The embodiment of the present application discloses a breathable oil-proof filter element, which is made by the following method: first, wool and viscose fibers are needled into a single-layer filter base cloth by a needle punching machine; then two or more single-layer filter base cloths are compounded to make a filter element rough base cloth; then the filter element rough base cloth is flattened; then a three-proofing finishing solution is prepared, and then the flattened filter element rough base cloth is soaked in the prepared three-proofing finishing solution; the soaked filter element rough base cloth is pressed dry, dried and shaped to obtain the breathable oil-proof filter element.

[0028] The present embodiment will be described in more detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0029] A breathable oil-proof filter element is prepared by the following method:

[0030] Preparation of single-layer filter base cloth: wool and viscose fibers are needled into a single-layer filter base cloth by a needle punching machine;

[0031] Preparation of filter element rough base cloth: two or more single-layer filter base cloths are compounded to make a filter element rough base cloth;

[0032] Flattening: the filter element rough base cloth is flattened;

[0033] Three-proofing finishing: a three-proofing finishing solution is prepared, and then the flattened filter element rough base cloth is soaked in the prepared three-proofing finishing solution;

[0034] The soaked filter element rough base cloth is pressed dry, dried and shaped.

[0035] In the step of preparing the single-layer filter base cloth, wool and viscose fibers are used as raw materials, both of which are flame-retardant fibers. After being mixed by needling, they become semi-finished raw materials of the air-permeable and oil-proof filter core. In the embodiment, the wool has a specification of 6D*64mm, and the viscose fiber has a specification of 3D*51mm. The weight ratio of the wool to the viscose fiber is 1:(2-3). In the embodiment, 30% wool and 70% viscose fiber are mixed and needled. The thickness of the single-layer filter base cloth is 2.5-3.5mm, and preferably 3mm. The needling speed of the needling machine is 600-900 times / min.

[0036] In the step of preparing the filter core prototype base cloth, the four single-layer filter base cloths are preferably needled by a low-speed needling machine, and the needling speed of the low-speed needling machine is 300-500 times / min.

[0037] In the embodiment, the single-layer filter base cloth is prepared by using a needling speed of 600-900 times / min, which can make the wool and the viscose fiber better fused and reserve the loftiness when the multiple layers are compounded. When the filter core prototype base cloth is prepared, the needling speed is 300-500 times / min, so that the multiple layers after being compounded can be in a better loftiness state, and the air permeability of the final product is good.

[0038] In the flattening step, a calender is used for flattening, and the temperature of the calender is 120-130℃. The filter core prototype base cloth passes through the calender at a speed of 3 meters per minute. The flattened filter core prototype base cloth is shown in FIG. 2. Figure 1

[0039] In the three-proofing finishing step, a three-proofing finishing agent with water-proof, oil-proof and dirt-proof functions is dissolved in water to prepare a three-proofing finishing solution. Specifically, the three-proofing finishing agent and water are mixed according to a weight ratio of 1:(20-30), and the three-proofing finishing agent is added to the water and stirred uniformly by a blender. Then, the three-proofing finishing solution is poured into a glue dipping machine, and the flattened filter core prototype base cloth is soaked uniformly by the glue dipping machine. In the embodiment, the three-proofing finishing agent is Oligo Fluoro CPO. In the preferred embodiment, the three-proofing finishing solution is prepared by dissolving the three-proofing finishing agent Oligo Fluoro CPO and polyvinyl alcohol in water. After the polyvinyl alcohol is added to the three-proofing finishing solution, the water-proof, oil-proof and dirt-proof performance of the product is obviously improved. Specifically, the three-proofing finishing agent is Oligo Fluoro CPO, and the mass ratio of the three-proofing finishing agent to the polyvinyl alcohol is (5-6):1.

After drying, the filter core blank is shaped and rolled by a cooling machine. After shaping, the filter core blank is cut into a required size by a die cutting punch, as shown in FIG. 1. Figure 2

[0041] The oil-proof and air-permeable filter core of the present embodiment does not sink in oil or water. As shown in FIG. 2, the oil-proof and air-permeable filter core of the present embodiment is placed in a water bottle and an oil bottle, and the oil-proof and air-permeable filter core floats on the surface of the liquid. Figure 3

[0042] The oil-proof and air-permeable filter core of the present embodiment has the advantages of oil-proof, water-proof, fire-proof, high air-permeability, and is not easy to carbonize during filtration, and is resistant to high temperature. According to the requirement of air permeability ≤50mm / s, the oil-proof and air-permeable filter core of the present embodiment can be used for 103 times after circulation.
