Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water treatment, in particular to a composite filter element structure with an outer filter element that can be washed by hand and an inner filter element that can be replaced. Background Art
[0002] The composite filter elements of traditional water purifiers mainly include the following types and the shortcomings of each type:
[0003] 1. The traditional melt-blown polypropylene carbon rod composite filter element is mainly composed of: the front is a melt-blown polypropylene composite filter element, and the rear is a carbon rod filter element. After the filter bottle and the front and rear composite filter elements are assembled, the bottom cover and the filter bottle are spun and melted. The front filter element (or outer filter element) and the rear filter element (or inner filter element) cannot be disassembled. The two are completely fixedly connected, which makes the rear filter element unable to be replaced separately. The outer layer of the front filter element is covered by the filter bottle, and the outer surface of the filter element core material cannot be cleaned. Moreover, the replacement cycle of the front and rear composite filter elements is generally 3-6 months. Due to the diversity and complexity of tap water quality in various places, the front filter element and the rear filter element cannot fail at the same time. In this way, the service life of the overall composite filter element is usually determined by the short-lived internal carbon rod filter element. Therefore, discarding the front filter element and the rear filter element at the same time leads to insufficient utilization of the filter element, resulting in unnecessary waste. When replacing the filter element, the entire filter element needs to be discarded, and the cost of replacing the element is very high.
[0004] 2. The main components of the traditional ceramic carbon rod composite filter element are: the outer filter element is a ceramic filter element fired at high temperature with diatomaceous earth, and the inner filter element is a carbon rod filter element sintered at high temperature with activated carbon. The two are fixed as a whole and the inner filter element cannot be replaced separately. Although the ceramic filter element of the outer filter element can be cleaned repeatedly, so that its service life can generally reach two to three years, and the service life of the internal carbon rod filter element is usually about six months, the difference in service life between the two is very large. In this way, the service life of the overall composite filter element is usually determined by the short-lived internal carbon rod filter element. Therefore, discarding the outer ceramic filter element and the internal carbon rod filter element at the same time leads to the composite filter element not being fully utilized, causing unnecessary waste, and when replacing the filter element, the entire filter element is generally discarded, and the cost of replacing the element is very high.
[0005] After searching the patent literature, the patent with the announcement number CN216155633U discloses a composite filter element structure. This patent technology obviously provides a solution to the problem of replacing the post-filter element (or inner filter element). At the same time, the dependent claims of the patent also propose a solution for cleaning the core material of the pre-filter element (or outer filter element). However, after careful study, this cleaning solution for the pre-filter element (or outer filter element) is technically invalid. In order to more clearly explain why this technical solution is invalid, here, a paragraph is specially selected from the embodiment in the patent document (paragraph number 0049) and combined with the relevant specification drawings in the patent document to briefly explain it: "The filter bottle 1 is close to the filter element end cover 21 (also known as In other words, a wastewater outlet pipe 15 is also provided at one end close to the carbon rod end cap 31, and a wastewater outlet port 151 is provided on the wastewater outlet pipe 15. The pre-filter element assembly 2 has a third end 213 that matches the wastewater outlet pipe 15, and the wastewater outlet pipe 15 is sealed and connected to the third end 213 to form a wastewater outlet pipeline. Specifically, the third end 213 is in the shape of a convex ring, and the inner hole of the convex ring is aligned with and connected to the other end of the membrane filament 232 of the filter element 23. In this embodiment, the membrane filament 232 is aligned with the first end 211 and the third end. The two ends of the first end 213 are connected to form a wastewater flow channel. When flushing the composite filter element structure, tap water enters the raw water inlet pipe 11 from the raw water inlet port 111, and then enters the membrane filament 232 of the pre-filter element assembly 2, passes through the wastewater flow channel in the membrane filament 232, enters the wastewater outlet pipe 15, and finally flows out of the composite filter element structure through the wastewater outlet port 151, completing the flushing of the pre-filter element assembly 2. "From this text and the drawings in the patent document, it can be seen that the first end 211 and the third end 213 are simultaneously arranged on the filter element end cover. 21, and all penetrate the inner space formed by the open end of the membrane filament 232 and the inner end of the filter element end cap 21. Obviously, the first end 211 and the third end 213 form a direct connection through this shared inner space. The raw water entering the inner space from the water inlet pipe 11 (sealed with the first end 211) directly flows out of the composite filter element from the wastewater outlet 151 (sealed with the third end 213). The raw water does not pass through the wastewater flow channel in the membrane filament 232 at all, that is, it is impossible to complete the flushing of the pre-filter element assembly 2. Therefore, a composite filter element structure disclosed in the patent document with announcement number CN216155633U actually only solves the technical problem of replacing the post-filter element (or the inner filter element). As for the cleaning solution of the pre-filter element (or the outer filter element) provided by the patent, it is not technically valid.
