Description
Technical Field

[0002] Membrane cartridge or membrane stack filters are widely used in the biopharmaceutical industry, including the production of vaccines, antibodies, and plasmids, due to their good filtering effects.

In the process of use, the materials used in the components of the filter in the traditional process cannot withstand high temperatures, and they may deteriorate under high temperature conditions, causing the filter to not work properly or impurities to enter. Therefore, traditional membrane filters cannot be steam sterilized and cannot improve the quality of the product. At the same time, existing filters usually need to be produced through secondary welding or bonding processes, which is a relatively complicated process with low production efficiency.

A spacer with a special structure is provided between the inlet and outlet flow channel network and the cover plate. The spacer is composed of a variety of different structural forms.

This diversity can more effectively capture and filter tiny particles in the air or liquid, thereby improving the filtering effect; spacers with different structures can provide more uniform support, making the filter assembly more stable during use, which helps prevent the filter assembly from being deformed or damaged due to uneven force, and prolongs the service life of the device; by arranging a spacer with a special structure between the inlet and outlet flow channel network and the cover plate, the distribution of the fluid in the filter device can be improved. Spacers with different structures can guide the fluid to flow along the designed path, reduce the resistance of the fluid during the filtering process, and improve the filtering efficiency; using spacers with different structures can ensure that the various parts of the filter assembly are tightly connected, reducing the risk of leakage. This tight connection can prevent unfiltered liquid or gas from bypassing the filter assembly and passing directly through the device, ensuring the filtering effect and safety. Therefore, using spacer pads with different structures can improve the filtering effect, stability and fluid distribution of the assembled filtering device and reduce the risk of leakage, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the device.

During the working process, the user can first put the filter material for filtering into the filter through the filter material through hole 3, and then put the filter material to be processed through the inlet and outlet through hole. After the filter material enters from the inlet and outlet through hole, when it reaches the inlet and outlet flow channel network, it flows to the other end of the filter through the flow channel, and then enters the filter layer through the flow channel hole, and is filtered through the single-layer filter paper of the first filter layer or the filter paper combination unit of the second filter layer, and then returns to the end where it originally entered the filter. The filter layer includes multiple groups of inlet and outlet flow channels and filter layers, and the filter material can be improved in quality through multiple filtrations.
[0053] The assembled filter device provided by the utility model is assembled in a stacked manner during the installation process, and there is no secondary welding, bonding and other process treatments, which improves the efficiency of production and processing, and can quickly meet customer needs on demand.
