[0019] In order to provide a further understanding of the purpose, structure, features, and functions of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0020] Figure 1 Shown is a schematic structural diagram of a water purification device according to an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a water purification device, comprising: a filter tank 1, the filter tank 1 extending in a vertical direction, a water inlet provided at the top of the filter tank 1, a water outlet provided at the bottom of the filter tank 1, and a diatomaceous earth sheet 6, an activated carbon sheet 7, and an ion exchange resin sheet 8 provided in order from top to bottom inside the filter tank. A metal salt sustained-release tablet is also provided in the diatomaceous earth sheet 6 or a metal salt is dispersed therein. A raw water storage tank 2 is provided above the filter tank 1 and is connected to the water inlet. A clean water storage tank 3 is provided below the filter tank 1 and is connected to the water outlet.

[0022] For example, diatomaceous earth can be mixed with powder materials such as a binder and then formed into a mold and sintered to form a sheet-like diatomaceous earth material with a microporous structure. The sheet-like diatomaceous earth material is then immersed in a diluted aqueous solution of a metal salt such as silver nitrate, so that metal ions such as silver are fully adsorbed in the pores to form a diatomaceous earth sheet 6. During use, the raw water is first preliminarily filtered through the diatomaceous earth sheet 6, and the silver ions are slowly released to eliminate bacteria and viruses that are difficult to filter. The activated carbon sheet 7 and the ion exchange resin sheet 8 are used for further purification to adsorb color-causing and odor-causing locations and excess metal ions (for example, excess silver ions). The activated carbon sheet 7 is used to adsorb color-causing and odor-causing small molecules and some metal ions (for example, silver ions) in the water. The ion exchange resin sheet 8 is used to further absorb metal ions (for example, silver ions).

[0023] Alternatively, a metal salt sustained-release tablet or a metal salt may be directly dispersed in a diatomaceous earth material to prepare a diatomaceous earth sheet capable of sustained-release metal ions. For example, the metal salt sustained-release tablet or the metal salt may be dispersed in the diatomaceous earth material before sintering. The ion exchange resin sheet 8 may be a resin material such as a strong acid cation exchange resin or a chelating resin. Diatomaceous earth itself is white in color. When the diatomaceous earth sheet 6 changes color to a certain extent, it can be considered that the diatomaceous earth sheet has reached a certain level of contamination and needs to be replaced.

[0024] When in use, since the filter tank and diatomaceous earth sheets, activated carbon sheets and ion exchange resin sheets are arranged from top to bottom, the water can be filtered by itself with the help of gravity without the need for external energy.

[0025] The raw water storage tank 2 and the purified water storage tank 3 can be foldable silica gel water storage tanks, which are easy to carry and can be placed at the corresponding water inlet and outlet positions when in use. Therefore, the utility model adopts a modular design, which is easy to disassemble and assemble, and easy to maintain and replace.

[0026] A flow regulator 5 is provided at the water outlet. The flow regulator 5 is used to control the flow rate of the purified water. The flow regulator 5 can be a rotary valve, a sliding valve, a needle valve or other types of devices that can adjust the liquid flow.

[0027] The filter canister 1 can be cylindrical, consisting of two semi-cylindrical shapes, which are connected by threads, snaps, and flanges to form a filter canister, making it easy to carry and assemble while ensuring a generally good seal. The filter canister 1 can also be designed in a square, diamond, or triangular shape.

[0028] For example, slots of uniform spacing and specifications can be provided within the cylindrical filter canister 1. These slots are used to secure consumables such as diatomaceous earth sheets, activated carbon sheets, and ion exchange resin sheets, ensuring that these filter materials are securely positioned when water flows through them to achieve optimal filtration. The number of slots can be a natural number greater than or equal to 3, and the appropriate number of filter materials, such as diatomaceous earth sheets, activated carbon sheets, and ion exchange resin sheets, with different functions, can be selected as needed.

[0029] The material of the filter tank 1 can be transparent or translucent thick acrylic material, or other polymer materials with a certain degree of light transmittance, which not only ensures the structural strength and durability of the filter tank 1, but also makes it easy to observe the use of the filter material inside the filter tank and the water filtration process, and facilitates timely replacement of consumables and maintenance of equipment.

[0030] An opening 9 is provided on the lower side of the filter tank 1. The opening 9 is usually sealed. In the final stage when the purified water is about to flow out, the opening 9 is opened to release the water retained at the bottom of the filter tank due to insufficient pressure.

[0031] Further, such as Figure 1 As shown, the water purification device may further include a plurality of brackets 4, which surround the side of the filter tank 1 and uniformly support the filter tank 1 from multiple directions, and the other ends of the plurality of brackets 4 are fixed to the ground.

[0032] For example, during use, the diatomaceous earth sheet 6, activated carbon sheet 7, and ion exchange resin sheet 8 are first installed in the slots in sequence. The two semi-cylindrical shapes are then threaded or snapped together to form the filter tank 1. The external bracket 4 and flow regulator 5 are then installed, and collapsible silica gel water tanks are installed at the water inlet and outlet, respectively, to form the raw water tank 2 and the purified water tank 3. A water inlet can be provided in the raw water tank 2 for easy water addition. The modular design facilitates assembly, making the entire process simple and tool-free. Water is then added to the raw water tank 2. The filter material inside the filter tank 1 filters the water. The diatomaceous earth sheet 6 not only filters particulate matter and impurities in the water, but the silver ions released by the diatomaceous earth sheet 6 also kill bacteria and viruses in the water. The activated carbon sheet 7 and ion exchange resin sheet 8 further absorb color- and odor-causing substances, as well as excess silver ions.

[0033] At the end of the purification process or when maintenance is required, the operator can open opening 9 on the lower side of canister 1 to release any water trapped at the bottom of the canister. This opening is normally sealed and is only opened when the purification process is complete or maintenance is required. When draining water, it can be opened with a simple operation, facilitating the removal of residual water from canister 1 and subsequent cleaning and maintenance, making daily operation and maintenance of canister 1 more efficient.

[0034] This water purification device operates without the need for external power, making it particularly suitable for remote areas where industrial water pipelines are unavailable or where power supply is unreliable. This feature enables the device to provide efficient water purification services in a variety of outdoor environments, such as construction sites, mining exploration, and field scientific research, meeting the clean water needs of specialized industrial applications. Compared to water purification systems that require external power, this device provides an independent and reliable clean water solution for areas far from urban infrastructure.

[0035] This water purification device utilizes a modular structure, allowing for easy replacement of components such as the diatomaceous earth sheet, activated carbon sheet, and ion exchange resin sheet. The white base of the diatomaceous earth sheet and the transparent or translucent design of the filter canister not only allow users to visually observe the filter material's condition but also indicate when consumables need replacement. This design reduces maintenance effort and costs while improving the continuity and reliability of water purification.

[0036] The water purification device of this utility model can efficiently treat natural water bodies, removing various impurities including insect eggs, small amounts of silt, and algae. Furthermore, the slow-release effect of silver ions in the diatomaceous earth tablets effectively inactivates bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms in the water, providing a safer water source. Compared to existing simple filtration or chemical treatment equipment, this utility model not only removes physical impurities but also provides biological safety, which is crucial for ensuring the quality of industrial water, especially in applications requiring a highly clean and safe water source.

[0037] This utility model is not only suitable for construction sites, mining exploration, and field scientific research, but also for any outdoor application requiring rapid and efficient purification of natural water sources. This water purification device provides an environmentally friendly, efficient, and easy-to-use solution, particularly suitable for use in environments far from traditional water sources and electricity. Its innovative design and optimized functionality give it significant advantages in the field of water purification.

[0038] The water purification device provided by the utility model, by arranging diatomaceous earth sheets, activated carbon sheets and ion exchange resin sheets from top to bottom, can not only filter impurities in the water, but also kill organisms such as bacteria. It can operate with the help of gravity and does not require external energy supply. It can also carry out water purification work in the wild to meet production and life needs.

[0039] The present invention has been described with reference to the above embodiments. However, these embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the disclosed embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention. On the contrary, modifications and improvements made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention are within the scope of patent protection of the present invention.
