Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of automotive air conditioning filter technology, specifically to an activated carbon composite filter material for automotive air conditioning filters. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of the automotive economy, the production and use of automobiles have increased dramatically, and the pollution caused by automobile exhaust has become increasingly serious. The harm of automobile exhaust pollution to the environment and human health is quite severe. The main pollutants emitted by automobiles include hydrocarbons (toluene, butane), nitrogen oxides, and sulfur dioxide (SO₂). 2) Air conditioning filters are used to filter incoming air, including particulate matter (PM), when the car is in external circulation, heating, or cooling mode. However, during use, the filtration efficiency can be low, allowing fine dust to enter the cabin and affect breathing safety.
[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the existing technology (Chinese patent application with application number CN202023348650.5, application date 2020-12-31) air conditioning filter and its filter element can avoid drilling holes in the pleats of the filter material body, and can increase the filtration area of the filter material body without damaging the structure of the filter material body, thereby improving the filtration performance of the product. Furthermore, only the first and second notches need to be machined on the front end plate, without drilling holes in the filter media body, making manufacturing more convenient and improving production efficiency. Installation is also easier. Existing technology (Chinese patent application CN201320207370.3, filed April 23, 2013) describes a car air conditioning filter element. By adding three polypropylene pleated rubber support plates around the filter media, the filter element structure becomes stable, robust, and durable, solving the problem of easy deformation. When the air intake is large, deformation is reduced, preventing damage and thus extending the filter's service life. Because the filter media uses high-grade non-woven filter fabric with good air permeability, and the spacing between the tops of two adjacent corrugations or folds is 21-23mm, the filtration effect is effectively improved, and the environment inside the driver's cabin is improved. Furthermore, because the support plate I is designed to be 10mm-30mm longer than the side strip... The original long strip structure of the filter element has been changed, making the filter element easier to install and use. Furthermore, existing technology (Chinese patent application CN201721692178.2, filed on 2017-12-07) describes a filter material for automotive air conditioning filters. By setting a water-repellent reinforced coarse filter layer, and utilizing the water-repellent, high-strength, and porous characteristics of non-woven fabric, it achieves the blocking of moisture in the air, protection of the secondary filter layer, and interception of large particles, improving the structural stability of the automotive air conditioning filter and effectively ensuring its normal function. While existing technology can complete the filtration work, it is prone to damage during maximum airflow operation, resulting in a decrease in filtration efficiency. Moreover, replacement typically requires replacing the entire air conditioning filter, easily leading to material waste. Additionally, the relatively flexible edges can easily leave gaps between the filter and the air intake mechanism, making it difficult to control the air filtration effect.

[0021] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-8 The present invention provides a technical solution: an activated carbon composite filter material for automotive air conditioning filters, comprising a composite filter material pre-filtration layer 1 and a sealing strip 2 adhered to the outer surface of the composite filter material pre-filtration layer 1.
[0023] Example 1: As Figures 1-8 The present invention provides the following technical solution: an activated carbon composite filter material for an automotive air conditioning filter, comprising: a filter frame 3, which is attached to the outer surface of a sealing strip 2, and a protective layer 7 is attached to the lower surface of the pre-filter layer 1 of the composite filter material, and an adsorption layer 8 is attached to the lower surface of the protective layer 7, while a fine filter layer 13 is attached to the lower surface of the adsorption layer 8, and a support layer 14 is attached to the lower surface of the fine filter layer 13, and a clamping rod 20 is connected to the inner surface of the filter frame 3 by a pressing and rotating mechanism.
[0024] In use, the sealing strip 2, assembled with the composite filter material pre-filter layer 1, is effectively nested and assembled on the outer surface of the filter frame 3. The filter frame 3 provides positioning support for the composite filter material pre-filter layer 1, improving the assembly stability of the composite filter material pre-filter layer 1 and preventing gaps. The protective layer 7 and adsorption layer 8 attached to the composite filter material pre-filter layer 1 work together to improve adsorption stability and prevent concavity from affecting the filtration effect. The adsorption effect is also increased by the adsorption layer 8. The fine filter layer 13 and support layer 14 bonded to the lower side of the adsorption layer 8 further improve the filtration effect of the activated carbon composite filter material of the automotive air conditioning filter.
[0025] Example 2: Figures 1-5 The technical solution shown, based on Embodiment 1, further discloses the filtration effect of the filter media, increases filtration stability, and enhances the support stability of the filter media to prevent indentation from affecting filtration stability. It solves the problem of easy damage and reduced filtration efficiency during operation at maximum airflow. Specifically, the inner surface of the composite filter media pre-filtration layer 1 is nested with reinforcing wires 5, and the outer surface of the reinforcing wires 5 is cross-connected with reinforcing wires 6. Furthermore, the composite filter media pre-filtration layer 1, the protective layer 7, and the adsorption layer 8 form a continuous composite adhesive structure. Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the composite filter material pre-filtration layer 1, reinforcing wire 5, and reinforcing wire 6 form an embedded structure, with reinforcing wire 5 and reinforcing wire 6 arranged in a staggered manner. The outer surfaces of reinforcing wire 5 and reinforcing wire 6 are curved, and both reinforcing wire 5 and reinforcing wire 6 are made of polybutylene terephthalate. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the inner surface of the adsorption layer 8 is fused with spacer strips 9, and the spaces in the spacer strips 9 are filled with activated carbon material 10. The outer surface of the activated carbon material 10 is chemically coated with a modifier coating layer 11, and the inner surface of the modifier coating layer 11 has adsorption pores 12. Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the adsorption layer 8 and the spacer strip 9 form a welded structure, and the spacer strip 9 and the activated carbon material 10 form an embedded structure. The activated carbon material 10 and the modifier covering layer 11 form a covering structure, and the adsorption pores 12 are uniformly opened on the outer surface of the modifier covering layer 11. Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the adsorption layer 8, the fine filter layer 13, and the support layer 14 form a bonded composite structure. The inner surface of the support layer 14 is filled with a support mesh 15, and the outer surface of the support mesh 15 has a diamond-shaped mesh structure. The support mesh 15 is made of polypropylene modified fiber filaments.
[0026] In use, the upper and lower adsorption layers 8 are fused together into strip-shaped gaps by curved spacers 9, and activated carbon material 10 is filled into these gaps. The activated carbon material 10 is covered by a modifier covering layer 11, which, together with the adsorption pores 12 of the activated carbon material 10, improves the adsorption effect. This, combined with the filled adsorption layer 8, effectively controls the adhesion between the adsorption layer 8 and the protective layer 7. Furthermore, the composite filter material pre-filtration layer 1 is effectively adhered to the upper layer of the protective layer 7. During the adhesion process, the composite filter material pre-filtration layer 1… The reinforced wires 1 and 2 are interwoven and built-in to improve the support effect of the pre-filter layer 1 of the composite filter material when it initially contacts large particles of impurities, preventing the material from concave due to strong winds, thus improving the support and filtration effects. In addition, the fine filter layer 13 is attached to the lower side of the adsorption layer 8, and the support layer 14 is attached to the lower side of it. The support mesh 15 built into the support layer 14 further improves the support effect and prevents damage. The edge sealing strip 2 is bonded to the outside of the pre-filter layer 1 of the composite filter material to improve the working effect of the activated carbon composite filter material of different sizes of automotive air conditioning filters.
[0027] Example 3: Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The technical solution shown, based on Embodiment 2, further discloses the support stability of the overall filter material, preventing gaps that could cause dust leakage and avoid damage to the vehicle's interior environment. It solves the problems of general replacement requiring the replacement of the entire air conditioning filter, which easily leads to material waste, and the relatively flexible edges easily leaving gaps with the air intake mechanism, making it difficult to control the air filtration effect. Specifically, a support frame 4 is installed on the lower surface of the filter frame 3, and a support layer 14 is attached to the upper surface of the support frame 4, with a sealing strip 2 attached to the outer surface of the support layer 14; For example... Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the filter frame 3 and the support frame 4 form an integrated structure, and the outer surface of the support frame 4 has a square grid structure, and the support layer 14 and the sealing strip 2 form an adhesive structure; as shown Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the pressure rotation mechanism also includes a threaded rod 16 rotatably connected to the inner surface of the filter frame 3, and a movable frame 17 threadedly connected to the outer surface of the threaded rod 16, limiting and sliding the movable frame 17 on the inner surface of the filter frame 3. A pull rod 18 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the movable frame 17, and a hanging lug 19 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the pull rod 18. A clamping rod 20 is installed on the outer surface of the hanging lug 19, positioning and rotating the clamping rod 20 in the built-in groove 21 of the filter frame 3. A clamping block 22 is installed on the outer surface of the clamping rod 20, and a sealing strip 2 is clamped and connected to the outer surface of the clamping block 22. Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the filter frame 3 forms a threaded sliding structure with the movable frame 17 via the threaded rod 16, and the movable frame 17 forms a linkage rotation structure with the clamping rod 20 via the pull rod 18 and the hanging lug 19. The clamping rod 20 forms a nested rotation structure with the filter frame 3 via the built-in groove 21. At the same time, the clamping rod 20 and the clamping block 22 form an integrated structure, and the filter frame 3 forms a clamping and limiting structure with the edge sealing strip 2 via the clamping block 22.
[0028] In use, the composite filter material is effectively nested in the filter frame 3 and supported by the support frame 4 installed in the filter frame 3. The edge frame of the support frame 4 fits the sealing strip 2, reducing gaps. The threaded rod 16 is rotated by rotation control, and the threaded adjustment moving frame 17 slides within the filter frame 3. This rotation drives the pull rod 18 to rotate and adjusts the clamping rod 20 installed on the hanging ear 19 to be positioned and rotated within the filter frame 3. The clamping rod 20 can be rotated and unfolded from the built-in groove 21 of the filter frame 3, and the clamping block 22 installed on the clamping rod 20 can be driven to effectively limit and compress the sealing strip 2, improving the stability of the filter material body, improving the stability of the assembly with the car air conditioner, preventing air leakage and dust entry, improving the cleanliness of the air inside the car, and increasing the filtration effect.
