[0066] In some other embodiments, the present invention also discloses a water tank water pump drainage filter and a water tank, referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the water tank water pump drainage filter includes:

[0067] The water pump filter bracket 100 has a filter portion 110 at its lower end for filtering impurities;

[0068] The filter screen 200 is installed at the lower end of the filter part 110 through a first buckle 210 provided on the inner wall of the filter part 110 .

[0069] The beneficial effects of the water tank water pump drainage filter are:

[0070] The water pump filter bracket 100 of the water tank water pump drainage filter directly includes the filter part 110, avoiding the problem in the prior art that the filter device and the water pump filter bracket 100 are two different components, and avoiding the problem that the end of the water pump filter bracket 100 is damaged by the impact of several water flows under long-term use. On this basis, a water inlet 112 for sewage discharge is provided on the inner wall of the bottom end of the filter part 110, thereby reducing the impact force of water flow and dirt on the water pump filter bracket 100, and indirectly reducing the impact and displacement on the water tank 400 body, thereby extending the service life of the water tank 400 and its components.

[0071] Specifically, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a filtering function for the water pump drainage system of a mobile dehumidifier to prevent solid dirt in the water from entering the water pump and water pipes, avoiding blockage and damage to the water pump.

[0072] A water pump filter is designed at the pumping point of the water inlet pipe inside the water tank 400. The filter consists of a pump filter holder 100 and a filter 200. The filter 200 is mounted to the lower end of the pump filter holder 100 via a snap-fit ​​mechanism. A water outlet nozzle 111 is located at the upper end of the pump filter holder 100, facilitating connection to the drain pipe 300. The filter consists solely of the filter holder 200 and the filter 200. This simple overall structure requires only two molds, minimizing maintenance and improving product quality and stability.

[0073] Further, refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The top of the filter portion 110 is provided with a water outlet 111 for connecting to the drain pipe 300.

[0074] Specifically, the bottom end of the drain pipe 300 is connected to the water outlet 111 , and the drain pipe 300 extends from bottom to top along the water pump filter bracket 100 until the top of the water pump filter bracket 100 is connected to the corresponding connector.

[0075] Further, refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The water outlet 111 is a convex hollow water outlet, which facilitates the connection of the water pump filter bracket to the drain pipe 300.

[0076] Specifically, the upper end of the water pump filter holder 100 is designed with a convex hollow water outlet, which facilitates the connection of the filter holder to the water pipe and improves the smooth flow of water in the water pump drainage system. The water outlet nozzle 111 at the upper end of the water pump filter holder 100 is connected to the water pipe in an embedded manner, reducing the risk of water leakage at the connection. The water outlet nozzle 111 can make the connection between the water pipe and the water pump filter holder 100 closer, improving the drainage efficiency of the water pump.

[0077] Further, refer to Figures 9 to 11 The filter screen 200 is inserted from bottom to top into the first buckle 210 provided on the inner wall of the filter part 110, and is fixed to the filter part 110 by fixing ribs. The fixing ribs are used to prevent the filter screen 200 from sliding horizontally. The fixing ribs are provided between the first buckle 210 and the installation position of the filter screen 200.

[0078] Specifically, there are two first buckles 210, and the filter 200 is assembled on the lower end of the water pump filter bracket 100 through the first buckle 210. The filter 200 is easy to disassemble and assemble, which is convenient for users to disassemble and assemble the filter 200 for cleaning, thereby improving user experience.

[0079] Further, refer to Figure 11The filter screen 200 is also provided with a first cross rib 220 and a second cross rib 230 for facilitating the grabbing and rotating of the filter screen 200 so that the filter screen 200 is snapped into the first buckle 210. The first cross rib 220 and the second cross rib 230 are perpendicular to each other.

[0080] The outer side of the filter screen 200 is further provided with a first notch 240 and a second notch 250 . The lengths of the first notch 240 and the second notch 250 are consistent with the length of the first buckle 210 installed at the lower end of the water pump filter screen bracket 100 .

[0081] Specifically, the first notch 240 and the second notch 250 are provided to allow the filter 200 to fit into the first buckle 210 and to precisely contact the retaining ribs of the first buckle 210. This prevents the filter 200 from deforming during assembly and disassembly, making assembly and disassembly smoother and preventing premature damage to the filter 200 due to long-term deformation.

[0082] Further, refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 A water inlet 112 is provided on the inner wall of the bottom end of the filter portion 110 .

[0083] Specifically, water reaches the filter screen through the water inlet 112, and the dirt in the water is filtered out by the filter screen, so that the dirt will not enter the water pump, thereby extending the service life of the water pump.

[0084] Furthermore, there are four water inlets 112 , the first buckle 210 is disposed above two adjacent water inlets 112 , and the installation position of the filter 200 is higher than the setting position of the water inlets 112 .

[0085] Further, refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The water pump filter bracket 100 also includes a bracket portion 120 and a connecting portion 130 arranged sequentially from bottom to top. The filter portion 110 is connected to the bottom of the bracket portion 120, and the drain pipe 300 connected to the filter portion 110 extends along the bracket portion 120 to the connecting portion 130 for connection.

[0086] Specifically, in some embodiments, the adapter portion 130 is the detachable connector for the water tank water pump drainage, and the adapter portion 130 includes the detachably connected convex portion 600 and the concave portion 500 .

[0087] Further, refer to Figure 12 and Figure 13 The present invention also provides a water tank 400, including the water tank water pump drainage filter,

[0088] The water pump filter bracket 100 of the water tank water pump drainage filter is installed in the water tank 400 through the second buckle 140 and the boss 150.

[0089] Specifically, the number of the second buckles 140 is one, and the water tank pump drainage filter is installed on the water tank 400 as a whole through the second buckle 140, which is convenient for overall disassembly and assembly, thereby making it more convenient to disassemble and assemble the filter 200 for cleaning, thereby improving user experience.

[0090] Further, refer to Figure 9 and Figure 13 The second buckle 140 is arranged on the outer side of the adapter portion 130 of the water pump filter bracket 100. The boss 150 is arranged on the opposite side of the second buckle 140 and overlaps with the ribs on the inner side of the water tank.

[0091] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the aforementioned embodiments. As long as the technical effects of the present invention are achieved by the same means, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present disclosure shall be included within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
