Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of filter technology, specifically to a two-way flow channel type agricultural water-saving filter for furrow irrigation. Background Technology
[0002] In modern agricultural water-saving irrigation technology, furrow irrigation has become an important irrigation method for crop cultivation in arid and semi-arid regions due to its advantages of precise water supply and reduced water evaporation. Disc filters are a key component of furrow irrigation systems, used to filter impurities such as silt, weeds, and insect eggs from irrigation water, ensuring the smooth operation of irrigation pipes and sprinklers. This is of great significance for improving irrigation water utilization and extending equipment lifespan. Existing disc filters mainly consist of disc assemblies, a housing, a spring-loaded clamping mechanism, inlet and outlet ports, and backwash control components. The disc assembly is the core filtration unit, composed of multiple grooved discs stacked together. These grooves intersect to form micron-level filtration gaps to intercept impurities. The housing protects the internal components and connects the inlet and outlet pipes. The spring-loaded clamping mechanism uses elasticity to tightly press the disc assembly together, ensuring a tight seal during filtration. The backwash control components are responsible for switching between filtration and backwashing states. Its working principle is based on filtration and backwashing circulation. In the filtration stage, water flows in from the filter inlet. As it passes through the gaps between the discs, impurities such as mud, weeds, and insect eggs are intercepted. Clean water flows out from the outlet for irrigation. As impurities accumulate, the pressure difference between the filter inlet and outlet increases. When the set threshold is reached, the backwashing stage begins. The water flow direction is switched by the valve, and the backwash water flows in from the outlet, overcoming the spring force to push the discs apart, widening the gaps between the discs. The high-speed water flow washes the surface of the discs and the gaps, discharging the trapped impurities from the drain outlet. After the backwashing is completed, the spring pushes the discs back to their original position, and the filter returns to its filtration state.
[0003] However, existing disc filters still have the following problems in practical applications: 1. During backwashing, impurities can easily get stuck between the discs or excessive friction can cause incomplete separation, making it difficult to completely remove the trapped impurities. This requires increasing the rinsing time, which in turn increases the water consumption for backwashing; 2. The backwashing process relies on water pressure to overcome the spring force to separate the discs. To ensure sufficient backwashing water pressure, an additional booster device is usually required, leading to increased equipment costs and operating energy consumption; 3. Since the disc filter needs to have a high water flow rate during filtration, the frame on which the discs are installed needs to have a large hole design. However, during backwashing, if the hole diameter is too large, the water flow impact force will be insufficient, making it difficult to completely remove the impurities trapped on the discs. To balance these two aspects, existing disc filters often adopt a compromise solution, resulting in neither the filtration flux nor the backwashing pressure reaching the ideal state. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a two-way flow channel type agricultural water-saving filter for furrow irrigation to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a two-way flow channel type agricultural water-saving filter for furrow irrigation, comprising a filter assembly, a clean water pipe, a sewage pipe, and a two-way raw water pipe. Multiple filter assemblies are conductively connected to the two-way raw water pipe, and the filter assemblies are respectively conductively connected to the clean water pipe and the sewage pipe. Each filter assembly includes a housing, a sleeve fixedly connected inside the housing, a fixing frame disposed inside the sleeve, and the fixing frame fixedly connected inside the housing.

In the backwashing state, the baffle can close the through groove and use the small-diameter inclined hole as the water outlet, thereby achieving a balance between filtration throughput and backwashing pressure.

[0028] Working principle: When using this invention, raw water can be supplied to one end of the bidirectional raw water pipe 4, and the other end of the bidirectional raw water pipe 4 can be closed by installing a valve. The raw water enters the notch 123 of the valve core 121 through the inlet pipe 114, and then enters the housing 11. It is filtered by the stacked plate assembly 17. The filtered clean water enters the sleeve 13 through the through groove 131 and the inclined hole 132. At this time, due to the water pressure, the baffle 162 used to close the through groove 131 overcomes the elastic force of the first spring plate 161, so that the through groove 131 is in the open state, and the clean water enters through the connecting sleeve 124. The water enters the liquid flow channel 122, then flows into the outlet pipe 113, and finally into the purified water pipe 2 for irrigation. If backwashing of a filter component 1 is required, the motor 12 of that filter component 1 is started. The motor 12 drives the valve core 121 to rotate 90 degrees, closing the inlet pipe 114 and the outlet pipe 113, and connecting the backwash pipe 111 and the drain pipe 112. At this time, some of the purified water in the purified water pipe 2 will enter the liquid flow channel 122 through the backwash pipe 111, and then enter the sleeve 13 through the connecting sleeve 124. Due to the water pressure and the action of the first spring plate 161, the baffle plate 162 seals. With the through groove 131 closed, clean water will spray out from the inclined hole 132 and rinse along the tangential direction of the stacked body 173, causing the stacked body 173 to rotate. Simultaneously, when adjusting the valve core 121, its retaining ring 125 rotates accordingly. Because the guide groove 133, in conjunction with the guide block 141, restricts the adjusting ring 14, allowing it to slide only along the sleeve 13, the protruding teeth 126 on the retaining ring 125 gradually enter the tooth groove 142 as the retaining ring 125 rotates. This prevents the adjusting ring 14 from applying pressure to the pressure ring 15. Meanwhile, on the second spring 175... Under the action of the third spring 176, the adjacent stacked plate bodies 173 separate, thereby spraying out the impurities trapped on the stacked plate bodies 173. The sewage will enter the drain pipe 112 through the notch 123 and finally be discharged through the sewage pipe 3. After the backwashing is completed, the motor 12 drives the valve core 121 to reverse 90 degrees, so that the valve core 121 is reset and re-enters the filtration state. Among them, the fixing frame 16 is used to install the first spring 161, the guide rod 172 is used to limit and guide the second spring 175 and the third spring 176, and the groove 174 is used to allow water flow and intercept impurities.
