Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of filter element cleaning technology, and more particularly to a comprehensive cleaning device for filter element production. Background Technology

[0002] A water purifier is a device used to filter and purify tap water, aiming to remove impurities, bacteria, heavy metals, and other harmful substances from the water, thereby improving water quality and safety. The filter cartridge is a key component inside the water purifier. Filter cartridges are typically made of different materials, such as activated carbon and reverse osmosis membranes. Different types of filter cartridges can effectively filter specific contaminants. During use, filter cartridges accumulate dirt, impurities, and chemicals from the water, such as chlorine, heavy metals, and bacteria. These substances can clog the pores of the filter cartridge, affecting its filtration efficiency. Regularly cleaning the filter cartridge can remove these obstacles, ensuring clear, impurity-free water.

[0003] Existing filter cleaning devices, such as those described in Chinese application No. 202020300499.9, "A Household Water Purifier Filter Cleaning Device," include a cleaning tank, a connecting block, a column, and a second threaded rod. The filter element is sleeved on the outside of the column, and a first nut is screwed into the external thread to fix the filter element between a fixing cover and a rubber platform. The second threaded rod is screwed into a threaded hole to place the filter element inside the cleaning tank. Moving the first threaded rod within the through hole brings the cleaning brush into contact with the filter element. Water is sprayed from the outlet to clean the filter screen simultaneously, increasing the cleaning effect and preventing damage caused by screen movement.

[0004] The existing technology has the following drawbacks: In the above-mentioned filter element cleaning device, the filter element needs to be cleaned individually, which is time-consuming and cumbersome, and the cleaning efficiency is low. When multiple sets of filter elements need to be cleaned, each filter element needs to be cleaned individually, which significantly increases the time of the entire cleaning operation. At the same time, during the cleaning process, the equipment needs to consume a large amount of water to rinse the filter element, and the amount of water used in the individual cleaning process far exceeds the necessary cleaning water volume, which leads to increased cleaning costs of the filter element and waste of resources. Therefore, there is room for improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a comprehensive cleaning device for filter element production, thereby solving the technical problems of low cleaning efficiency and high water consumption in filter element cleaning devices.

[0006] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A comprehensive cleaning device for filter cartridge production includes a housing, a rinsing mechanism, a brushing mechanism, a drying mechanism, and an anti-splash mechanism. The housing has a receiving cavity, within which the rinsing mechanism, brushing mechanism, drying mechanism, and anti-splash mechanism are disposed. The receiving cavity has several sets of circumferentially arranged snap-fit ​​grooves, into which filter cartridges are snapped and fixed. The rinsing mechanism includes a water inlet pipe and a spray head, used to rinse the filter cartridges within the receiving cavity. The brushing mechanism includes brush rollers, a first motor, and an adjusting component. The brush rollers are arranged in a circumferential array between adjacent sets of filter cartridges. The first motor drives the brush rollers to rotate, and the adjusting component adjusts the distance between the brush rollers and the filter cartridges. The drying mechanism dries the filter cartridges within the receiving cavity, and the anti-splash mechanism prevents impurities within the receiving cavity from clogging the drying mechanism.

[0008] Preferably, the washing mechanism further includes a main brush, which is vertically disposed at the center of the accommodating cavity. The main brush is used to wash the filter element in the accommodating cavity, and the main brush is driven to rotate by a driving component.

[0009] Preferably, the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment plate arranged in a circumferential array, the first motor and the brush roller are disposed on the circumferential edge of the adjustment plate, and the adjustment plate is driven to rotate by a drive assembly.

[0010] Preferably, the drive assembly includes a second motor, a bushing, a first gear, a second gear, and a third motor. The bushing is sleeved on the output shaft of the second motor, and the output shaft of the second motor is coaxially fixed with the main brush. The bushing is coaxially fixed with the adjusting plate. The first gear is sleeved on the outer circumferential surface of the bushing and coaxially fixed with the bushing. The third motor is used to drive the second gear to rotate, and the second gear meshes with the first gear.

[0011] Preferably, a limiting groove is provided at the end of the output shaft of the second motor, and a limiting block is provided at the bottom of the main brush. The limiting groove and the limiting block are shaped to fit together. A paddle is also provided on the upper end face of the limiting groove. The paddle is used to limit the displacement of the limiting block in the vertical direction. A spring is also provided at the bottom of the limiting groove. The spring abuts against the bottom of the limiting block.

[0012] Preferably, the drying mechanism includes a heating plate and an exhaust fan. The heating plate is used to heat the inner wall of the accommodating cavity. The inner wall of the accommodating cavity is provided with a plurality of exhaust holes, and the exhaust fan is connected to the exhaust holes.

[0013] Preferably, the splash-proof mechanism includes a first plate, a second plate, and a fourth motor. The first plate is arranged in a circumferential array on the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity. The second plate is vertically disposed on the circumferential edge of the first plate and covers the exhaust hole. The fourth motor is used to drive the first plate to rotate.

[0014] Preferably, an ultrasonic cleaner is also provided inside the accommodating cavity.

[0015] Preferably, a water quality analyzer is also provided inside the accommodating cavity, and a water outlet valve is also provided at the drain outlet of the accommodating cavity. The water quality analyzer is communicatively connected to the water outlet valve and the ultrasonic cleaner.

[0016] Preferably, the scrubbing roller is spiral-shaped.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0018] 1. By placing multiple filter elements simultaneously in the receiving cavity, the cleaning process can process multiple sets of filter elements at once, significantly improving the cleaning efficiency of the production line. Compared to cleaning individual filter elements one by one, it can significantly shorten the total cleaning time and improve production efficiency. Since multiple filter elements are cleaned at the same time, the rinsing mechanism can be designed with centralized water supply, avoiding waste caused by repeatedly turning on the water source. The design of the brushing mechanism allows the brushing rollers to physically scrub the filter elements immediately after rinsing. This dual cleaning mode ensures that dirt on the surface of the filter elements is thoroughly removed, while reducing the accumulation of residual water after cleaning. The drying mechanism can effectively remove the residual water on the surface of the filter elements after rinsing and brushing, reducing the risk of recontamination of the filter elements and improving production efficiency. The anti-splash mechanism prevents impurities generated during cleaning and rinsing from splashing into the drying mechanism of the equipment, improving the reliability and operational stability of the equipment.

[0019] 2. Through the configuration of the drive components, the third motor drives the second gear to rotate, which in turn drives the first gear and the bushing to rotate. The rotation of the adjustment plate enables precise adjustment of the distance between the brush roller and the filter element, allowing operators to freely select the appropriate brushing intensity and contact distance according to the different conditions of the filter element (such as dirt thickness, material, etc.). Through the direct drive of the second motor, the main brush can rotate and clean at a stable speed and force, ensuring that the main brush can effectively clean the filter element thoroughly, improving the efficiency of the cleaning process, ensuring more uniform cleaning, and improving the cleaning effect.

[0020] 3. The second plate covers the exhaust vent, preventing impurities from entering. Rotating the second plate exposes the exhaust vent, ensuring effective moisture removal and improving operational flexibility. The anti-splash mechanism effectively prevents impurity accumulation and equipment damage, reducing downtime caused by blockages and improving overall production efficiency. During the cleaning process, the anti-splash mechanism covers the exhaust vent with the second plate, preventing dirt and impurities from splashing into the exhaust vent and causing blockages, ensuring unobstructed ventilation and maintaining a good working environment.

[0037] To further illustrate the technical means and effects of the present invention in achieving its intended purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structures, features, and effects of the present invention, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments, is provided.

[0038] Please see Figures 1-5 A comprehensive cleaning device for producing filter elements 8 includes a housing 1, a rinsing mechanism 2, a brushing mechanism 3, a drying mechanism, and an anti-splash mechanism 5. The housing 1 has a receiving cavity 6, within which the rinsing mechanism 2, brushing mechanism 3, drying mechanism, and anti-splash mechanism 5 are located. The receiving cavity 6 has several sets of circumferentially arranged snap-fit ​​grooves 7, into which the filter elements 8 are snapped and fixed. The rinsing mechanism 2 includes a water inlet pipe 21 and a spray head 22, used to rinse the filter elements 8 within the receiving cavity 6. The brushing mechanism 3 includes a brushing roller 31, a first motor 32, and an adjusting component 33. The brushing roller 31 is positioned between two adjacent sets of filter elements 8 in a circumferential array. The first motor 32 drives the brushing roller 31 to rotate, and the adjusting component 33 adjusts the distance between the brushing roller 31 and the filter elements 8. The drying mechanism dries the filter elements 8 within the receiving cavity 6, and the anti-splash mechanism 5 prevents impurities within the receiving cavity 6 from clogging the drying mechanism.

[0039] The working principle of the cleaning device in this application is as follows:

[0040] The external protective structure of the equipment provides stable support. Internally, multiple snap-fit ​​grooves 7 are provided, and the filter elements 8 are fixed within these grooves 7 for stability, facilitating subsequent cleaning and drying operations. During the cleaning process, water enters the spray head 22 through the water inlet pipe 21. The spray head 22 sprays water evenly onto the surface of the filter elements 8 within the receiving cavity 6, forming a rinsing flow. The purpose of rinsing is to remove dirt and impurities from the surface of the filter elements 8 using high-pressure water flow, thus initially cleaning them. The first motor 32 drives the brush roller 31 to rotate. The brush roller 31 moves along the position between two adjacent sets of filter elements 8. The rotation of the brush roller 31 generates friction, further... The washing module removes stubborn dirt from the surface of the filter element 8. The adjustment component 33 allows users to adjust the distance between the washing roller 31 and the filter element 8 according to the actual situation of the filter element 8, ensuring the washing effect while avoiding damage to the filter element 8. The washing roller 31 is set between two adjacent sets of filter elements 8, realizing the simultaneous washing of two adjacent sets of filter elements 8, improving the washing efficiency of the filter element 8. After rinsing and washing, the drying module evaporates the remaining moisture through a hot air or hot air system, thereby ensuring that the filter element 8 is dry to the production requirements. The anti-splash mechanism 5 ensures that other components inside the equipment, especially the drying mechanism, will not be affected by the entry of impurities.

[0041] This device places multiple filter elements 8 simultaneously within the receiving cavity 6, allowing the cleaning process to process multiple sets of filter elements 8 at once, significantly improving the cleaning efficiency of the production line. Compared to cleaning individual filter elements 8 one by one, it can significantly shorten the total cleaning time and increase production efficiency. The mechanized cleaning process reduces the need for manual intervention, lowering labor costs while improving work safety and management efficiency. Because multiple filter elements 8 are cleaned at the same time, the rinsing mechanism 2 can be designed for centralized water supply, avoiding waste caused by repeatedly turning on the water source. The high-efficiency spray head 22 design ensures even water coverage and full circulation, thereby maximizing water resource utilization and reducing overuse. The configuration of the water inlet pipe 21 and spray head 22... The system can fully cover the filter element 8 within the entire accommodating cavity 6, ensuring that the surface of each filter element 8 is rinsed with uniform water flow, thus improving the thoroughness of cleaning. The design of the brushing mechanism 3 allows the brushing roller 31 to immediately perform physical scrubbing on the filter element 8 after rinsing. This dual cleaning mode ensures that dirt on the surface of the filter element 8 is thoroughly removed, while reducing the accumulation of residual water after cleaning. The drying mechanism can effectively remove the residual water on the surface of the filter element 8 after rinsing and brushing, reducing the risk of recontamination of the filter element 8 and improving production efficiency. The anti-splash mechanism 5 prevents impurities generated during cleaning and rinsing from splashing into the drying mechanism of the equipment, avoiding equipment failure caused by impurities clogging, thereby improving the reliability and operational stability of the equipment.

[0042] In order to improve the cleaning efficiency of the filter element 8 and ensure that the surface of the filter element 8 is thoroughly cleaned, in one embodiment, the cleaning mechanism 3 further includes a main brush 34, which is vertically arranged at the center of the accommodating cavity 6. The main brush 34 is used to clean the filter element 8 in the accommodating cavity 6, and the main brush 34 is driven to rotate by the driving component 9. The main brush 34 is located directly in the center of the receiving cavity 6, enabling comprehensive brushing of all filter element 8 surfaces during the cleaning process, ensuring no areas are missed. Through brushing action, the main brush 34 effectively removes stubborn dirt and deposits on the filter element 8, especially deep dirt that the brushing roller 31 may not be able to completely remove. The rotation of the main brush 34 adopts a physical scrubbing method, combined with the rinsing water flow, enhancing the cleaning effect and thus improving the overall cleaning efficiency. Due to the high-efficiency cleaning capability of the main brush 34, the processing time of each set of filter elements 8 can be significantly shortened, thereby improving production efficiency. The drive component 9 of the main brush 34 can adjust its rotation speed to adapt the main brush 34 to different filter element 8 materials and dirt types, ensuring maximum decontamination without damaging the filter element 8. Through physical brushing, the main brush 34 can effectively reduce the necessity of using chemical cleaning agents, reduce production costs, and enhance environmental protection. During the rinsing process, the physical action of the main brush 34 combined with water spray makes it easier to remove dirt from the surface of the filter element 8, enhancing the overall cleaning effect.

[0043] In order to prevent the filter element 8 from falling off, deforming or otherwise physically damaged during the cleaning process, and to ensure the targetedness and effectiveness of the cleaning process, in one embodiment, the adjustment component 33 includes an adjustment plate 331, which is arranged in a circumferential array. The first motor 32 and the brush roller 31 are disposed on the circumferential edge of the adjustment plate 331, and the adjustment plate 331 is driven to rotate by the drive component 9. The adjusting component 33 can precisely adjust the distance between the washing roller 31 and the filter element 8, ensuring the effectiveness of the washing roller 31 during the cleaning process and avoiding damage to the filter element 8 due to excessive distance. By adjusting the contact force of the washing roller 31, the washing pressure can be adjusted according to the material and degree of dirt of the filter element 8, ensuring that while removing dirt, wear on the filter element 8 material is minimized. The circumferential array arrangement design allows the adjusting plate 331 to ensure that the washing roller 31 makes uniform contact with the surface of each filter element 8, avoiding damage caused by excessive impact in certain areas, improving the cleaning effect, and protecting the structural integrity of the filter element 8. Because the washing roller 31 is arranged in a circumferential array, multi-point cleaning of the filter element 8 can be achieved with the cooperation of the adjusting component 33, maximizing the removal of dirt. 33 By flexibly adjusting the movement and pressure, the rotation speed and pressure of the scrubbing roller 31 can be better matched with the condition of the filter element 8, avoiding wear or breakage of the filter element 8 due to excessive friction. Reasonable pressure adjustment can prevent the scrubbing roller 31 or other cleaning tools from applying excessive force to the filter element 8, thereby preventing the filter element 8 from falling off, deforming or other physical damage during the cleaning process. The adjustment component 33 allows the contact force between the scrubbing roller 31 and the filter element 8 to be properly controlled, so that the water flow and scrubbing action can complement each other during the rinsing process, forming a more effective decontamination effect. Due to the flexibility of the adjustment component 33, it can be dynamically adjusted according to the thickness and nature of the dirt on the surface of the filter element 8 to handle different types of dirt, thereby ensuring the targeted and effective decontamination process.

[0044] To reduce damage to the filter element 8 during the cleaning process and improve the cleaning efficiency of the filter element 8, in one embodiment, the drive assembly 9 includes a second motor 91, a bushing 92, a first gear 93, a second gear 94, and a third motor 95. The bushing 92 is sleeved on the output shaft of the second motor 91, and the output shaft of the second motor 91 is coaxially fixed with the main brush 34. The bushing 92 is coaxially fixed with the adjusting plate 331. The first gear 93 is sleeved on the outer circumferential surface of the bushing 92 and coaxially fixed with the bushing 92. The third motor 95 is used to drive the second gear 94 to rotate, and the second gear 94 meshes with the first gear 93. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the washing roller 31 and the filter element 8, the third motor 95 is started. The third motor 95 drives the second gear 94 to rotate. Since the second gear 94 meshes with the first gear 93, the second gear 94 drives the bushing 92 to rotate. The bushing 92 is coaxially fixed with the adjusting plate 331. The rotation of the adjusting plate 331 realizes the adjustment of the distance between the washing roller 31 and the filter element 8. When it is necessary to clean the main brush 34, the second motor 91 is started. Since the output shaft of the second motor 91 is coaxially fixed with the main brush 34, the main brush 34 is driven to rotate.

[0045] The third motor 95 in the drive assembly 9 drives the second gear 94 to rotate, which in turn drives the first gear 93 and the bushing 92 to rotate. The rotation of the adjusting plate 331 enables precise adjustment of the distance between the brush roller 31 and the filter element 8, allowing the operator to freely select the appropriate brushing intensity and contact distance according to the different conditions of the filter element 8 (such as dirt thickness, material, etc.). By fine-tuning the distance, it is ensured that the brush roller 31 does not apply excessive pressure during cleaning, avoiding wear or breakage of the filter element 8 due to excessive tight contact, which is crucial for extending the service life of the filter element 8. Relying on the direct drive of the second motor 91, the main brush 34 can rotate and clean at a stable speed and force, ensuring that the main brush 34 can effectively clean the filter element 8 thoroughly, improving the efficiency of the cleaning process. The effective rotation of the main brush 34 can cover every corner of the filter element 8, ensuring more uniform cleaning. The high speed during the cleaning process helps to loosen and remove dirt, improving the cleaning effect.

[0046] In order to enable quick replacement of the main brush 34 and make the brushing action of the main brush 34 more stable and precise, in one embodiment, a limiting groove 10 is provided at the end of the output shaft of the second motor 91, and a limiting block 11 is provided at the bottom of the main brush 34. The limiting groove 10 and the limiting block 11 are shaped to fit together. A paddle 12 is also provided on the upper end surface of the limiting groove 10. The paddle 12 is used to limit the displacement of the limiting block 11 in the vertical direction. A spring 13 is also provided at the bottom of the limiting groove 10. The spring 13 abuts against the bottom of the limiting block 11. The design of the limiting groove 10 and the limiting block 11 ensures that the main brush 34 is precisely fixed in the vertical direction, preventing the main brush 34 from swinging during the cleaning process, thus maintaining effective contact during brushing. The limiting block 11 matches the shape of the limiting groove 10, ensuring that the main brush 34 can rotate in a specific position during operation, making the brushing action more stable and precise, achieving the ideal cleaning effect. During the cleaning process, the vibration or rinsing action of the filter element 8 may cause displacement of equipment parts. The cooperation of the limiting groove 10 can effectively prevent this, ensuring that the main brush 34 is kept in the optimal working position. By limiting the displacement of the main brush 34, the brushing speed can be reduced. This reduces unnecessary wear between the filter element 8 and the device during the washing process, thus extending the service life of both the device and the filter element 8. The paddle 12, through its contact with the limiting block 11, further restricts the sliding of the limiting block 11 in the vertical direction, which helps control the up-and-down movement of the main brush 34 during rotation, ensuring that it always maintains the set brushing height and ensuring consistent cleaning results. The contact between the spring 13 and the bottom of the limiting block 11 allows the limiting block 11 to achieve a certain degree of elastic displacement when subjected to force. When the paddle 12 is open, it is convenient for the user to disassemble and replace the main brush 34, while ensuring the pressing effect of the paddle 12 on the limiting block 11.

[0047] To effectively reduce the surface humidity of the filter element 8, inhibit the growth of bacteria and mold, and reduce the possibility of secondary contamination of the filter element 8 after cleaning, in one embodiment, the drying mechanism includes a heating plate and an exhaust fan. The heating plate is used to heat the inner wall of the receiving cavity 6, and several sets of exhaust holes 4 are provided on the inner wall of the receiving cavity 6. The exhaust fan is connected to the exhaust holes 4. By heating the inner wall of the receiving cavity 6, the heating plate raises the surface temperature, promotes the evaporation of moisture adhering to the filter element 8, and can significantly shorten the drying time of the filter element 8, improving cleaning and production efficiency. The heating plate is distributed throughout the inner wall of the receiving cavity 6 to ensure uniform heating and avoid poor drying effect or local overheating caused by uneven heat, thereby affecting the quality of the filter element 8. The appropriate drying temperature is maintained within the safe range of the filter element 8 material to avoid material deformation or performance degradation due to excessively high temperatures, thereby protecting the structure and function of the filter element 8. Through rapid drying, the surface humidity of the filter element 8 is effectively reduced, inhibiting the growth of bacteria and mold, avoiding secondary contamination of the filter element 8 after cleaning, and improving the stability of product quality.

[0048] To prevent the accumulation of impurities and equipment damage, and to reduce downtime caused by blockages, in one embodiment, the anti-splash mechanism 5 includes a first plate 51, a second plate 52, and a fourth motor 53. The first plate 51 is arranged in a circumferential array on the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity 6. The second plate 52 is vertically disposed on the circumferential edge of the first plate 51 and covers the exhaust hole 4. The fourth motor 53 drives the first plate 51 to rotate. During cleaning operations, the fourth motor 53 drives the first plate 51 to rotate, and the second plate 52 covers the exhaust hole 4 to prevent impurities in the accommodating cavity 6 from clogging the archway light hole. During drying operations, the fourth motor 53 drives the first plate 51 to rotate, exposing the exhaust hole 4 for ventilation. During the cleaning operation, the second plate 52 covers the exhaust hole 4 to prevent impurities from entering the exhaust hole 4. When the drying operation is carried out, the exhaust hole 4 is exposed by rotation to ensure that moisture can be effectively removed, which improves the operational flexibility of the equipment. The anti-splash mechanism 5 effectively prevents the accumulation of impurities and equipment damage, reduces downtime caused by blockage, and improves the efficiency of the entire production process. During the cleaning process, the anti-splash mechanism 5 covers the exhaust hole 4 with the second plate 52 to prevent dirt and impurities from splashing into the exhaust hole 4 during the rinsing operation, which would cause blockage of the exhaust system, ensuring smooth ventilation and maintaining a good working environment.

[0049] To achieve a more comprehensive cleaning of the filter element 8 and effectively remove impurities from its surface, in one embodiment, an ultrasonic cleaner is also provided within the accommodating cavity 6. The ultrasonic cleaner emits high-frequency sound waves, generating tens of thousands of tiny bubbles in the cleaning fluid, creating a cavitation effect. When these bubbles burst instantaneously, they generate a powerful micromechanical impact force, effectively removing dirt, grease, and impurities from the surface and pores of the filter element 8. Because ultrasonic cleaning can penetrate complex shapes and tiny pores, different types of dirt (such as oil, dust, deposits, microorganisms, etc.) can be effectively removed, ensuring the cleanliness of the filter element 8. Ultrasonic cleaning typically requires far less time than traditional cleaning methods, significantly improving the overall efficiency of the production line by achieving the same or better cleaning results in a shorter cycle. Ultrasonic cleaning can be used in conjunction with the rinsing mechanism 2 and the brushing mechanism 3. After a multi-stage cleaning process, the first stage involves rinsing and brushing, followed by ultrasonic cleaning to remove minute dirt, thus achieving a more comprehensive cleaning.

[0050] To ensure the cleaning effect of filter element 8 and reduce water waste during the cleaning process, in one embodiment, a water quality analyzer is also installed inside the receiving cavity 6, and a water outlet valve is also installed at the drain outlet of the receiving cavity 6. The water quality analyzer is communicatively connected to the water outlet valve and the ultrasonic cleaner. When the water quality analyzer detects that the impurities in the water are higher than the preset concentration, the water outlet valve discharges wastewater; when the water quality analyzer detects that the impurities in the water are lower than the preset concentration, the water outlet valve closes, and the ultrasonic cleaner starts. The water quality analyzer can monitor water quality in real time during the cleaning process, especially detecting the concentration of impurities in the water. This ensures timely monitoring of water quality changes during cleaning and avoids using excessively polluted water. The data from the water quality analyzer can be fed back to the system instantly, triggering the operation of the outlet valve through set warning thresholds, making the cleaning process more intelligent and automated. When the water quality analyzer detects that the concentration of impurities in the water exceeds the set value, the outlet valve automatically opens to discharge wastewater, effectively preventing the accumulation of wastewater in the containment chamber 6 and maintaining a clean cleaning environment. The outlet valve closing function ensures that the ultrasonic cleaner can be safely started when the water quality reaches a non-turbid state, without ineffective water consumption, effectively reducing waste. The ultrasonic cleaner starts when the water quality is qualified, ensuring operation in the optimal cleaning environment, improving cleaning effect, and avoiding poor cleaning results due to poor water quality. The intelligent water quality monitoring and automatic discharge design helps to achieve resource conservation in the cleaning process, reduce the environmental pressure on enterprises, and reflect the production concept of sustainable development.

[0051] To reduce physical damage to the filter element 8 material during the cleaning process and improve the cleaning effect, in one embodiment, the scrubbing roller 31 is spiral-shaped. The spiral shape of the scrubbing roller 31 allows it to cover a large area of ​​the filter element 8 during rotation, forming uniform contact between the roller and the surface of the filter element 8 during water flow and scrubbing, ensuring that all areas are effectively cleaned. The spiral shape of the scrubbing roller 31 can better conform to filter elements 8 of different shapes and curved surfaces, especially those with complex structures, reducing friction during cleaning and minimizing damage to the filter element 8. With its unique rotation trajectory, the spiral scrubbing roller 31 can efficiently remove dirt, deposits, and impurities from the surface of the filter element 8, improving the cleaning effect and making the filter... The filter element 8 is cleaned more thoroughly. Due to its spiral design, the scrubbing roller 31 provides uniform and moderate friction when in contact with the surface of the filter element 8, effectively removing dirt while avoiding damage to the surface of the filter element 8 caused by concentrated wear. Traditional vertical or parallel scrubbing methods may cause scratching or wear.
