[0066] In other embodiments, the present invention also discloses a filter and a water tank for draining a water tank and a water pump, see reference. Figure 9 and Figure 10 The filter for draining the water tank and water pump includes:

[0067] A water pump filter screen bracket 100 is provided at the lower end of which a filter section 110 for filtering impurities is provided.

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

[0069] The beneficial effects of the filter used for draining the water tank and pump are as follows:

[0070] The water pump filter screen bracket 100 of the water tank and water pump drainage filter directly includes the filter part 110, avoiding the problem that the filter device and the water pump filter screen bracket 100 are two different components in the prior art. This avoids the problem that the end of the water pump filter screen bracket 100 will be damaged by the impact of water flow 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 screen 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 this invention is to provide a filtration function for the water pump drainage system of a portable dehumidifier, preventing solid dirt in the water from entering the water pump and water pipes, thus avoiding blockage and damage to the water pump.

[0072] A water pump drainage filter is designed at the water inlet of the water pump drainage system inside the water tank 400. The water pump drainage filter consists of a water pump filter support 100 and a filter screen 200. The filter screen 200 is installed at the lower end of the water pump filter support 100 by clips, while the upper end of the water pump filter support 100 is equipped with a water outlet 111 for easy connection to the drain pipe 300. The water pump drainage filter consists only of the filter screen 200 support and the filter screen 200—the overall structure is simple, requiring only two sets of molds, reducing maintenance difficulty and improving product quality stability.

[0073] Furthermore, refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The top of the filter section 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 screen bracket 100 until the top of the water pump filter screen bracket 100 is connected to the corresponding connector.

[0075] Furthermore, 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 support 100 is designed with a convex hollow water outlet, which facilitates the connection of the filter support to the water pipe and improves the smooth flow of the water pump drainage system. The water outlet 111 at the upper end of the water pump filter support 100 is embedded in the water pipe, reducing the risk of leakage at the connection. The water pipe and the water pump filter support 100 can be connected more tightly through the water outlet 111, improving the drainage efficiency of the water pump.

[0077] Furthermore, refer to Figures 9 to 11 The filter screen 200 is snapped into the upper part of the first buckle 210 on the inner wall of the filter part 110 from bottom to top, and is fixed to the filter part 110 by a fixing rib. The fixing rib is used to prevent the filter screen 200 from sliding horizontally, and the fixing rib is located between the first buckle 210 and the installation position of the filter screen 200.

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

[0079] Furthermore, refer to Figure 11The filter screen 200 is also provided with a first cross rib 220 and a second cross rib 230 that are easy to grasp and rotate, so that the filter screen 200 can be 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 also provided with a first notch 240 and a second notch 250, the lengths of the first notch 240 and the second notch 250 being the same as 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 for the filter screen 200 to be engaged with the first buckle 210, and just abutting against the fixing rib limit of the first buckle 210. When the filter screen 200 is disassembled or assembled, the filter screen 200 no longer deforms, making disassembly and assembly smoother, and preventing the filter screen 200 from being damaged prematurely due to long-term deformation.

[0082] Furthermore, refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The filter section 110 has a water inlet 112 on the inner wall at the bottom end.

[0083] Specifically, water reaches the filter screen through the inlet 112, where dirt and debris in the water are filtered out, preventing them from entering the water pump and extending its service life.

[0084] Furthermore, there are four water inlets 112, the first buckle 210 is located above two adjacent water inlets 112, and the filter screen 200 is installed at a position higher than the water inlets 112.

[0085] Furthermore, refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The water pump filter screen bracket 100 also includes a bracket portion 120 and a transition 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 transition portion 130 for transition.

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

[0087] Furthermore, refer to Figure 12 and Figure 13 The present invention also proposes a water tank 400, including a filter for draining water from the water tank and water pump.

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

[0089] Specifically, there is one second clip 140. The entire filter for draining the water tank and water pump is installed on the water tank 400 through the second clip 140, which facilitates the overall disassembly and assembly, making it easier to disassemble and clean the filter screen 200 and improve the user experience.

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