Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of activated carbon filter elements, in particular to a modified activated carbon filter element. Background Art
[0002] The activated carbon filter element is made of high-quality fruit shell charcoal and coal-based activated carbon, supplemented with food-grade adhesives, and processed by high-tech technology and special processes. It integrates adsorption, filtration, interception, and catalysis. It can effectively remove organic matter, residual chlorine and other radioactive substances in water, and has the effect of decolorization and removal of odor. It is an ideal new generation product in the liquid and air purification industry. Types: white head sintered activated carbon filter element, black head with skeleton sintered activated carbon filter element, granular activated carbon filter element.
[0003] The longer the activated carbon filter currently used is used, the yellower the sponge inside becomes, and the worse the filtering effect becomes. Therefore, the sponge needs to be replaced regularly. However, the outer shell that protects the filter element appears to be one-piece in front of non-technical personnel. Therefore, every time the outer shell is opened, it will be violently broken and then the outer shell will show varying degrees of damage, resulting in the filter element that has been replaced with the sponge being unable to continue to be used. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technology.
[0005] To this end, the technical solution adopted in this utility model is:
[0006] A modified activated carbon filter element comprises a filtering module, wherein the filtering module comprises a protective shell, two end covers movably sleeved on both ends of the protective shell, two sponges movably mounted inside the protective shell, activated carbon filled inside the protective shell, wherein the activated carbon is located between the two sponges, and a loading and unloading module, wherein the loading and unloading module comprises a rubber ring mounted on the inner side of the end cover, a ring body mounted on the inner side of the rubber ring, a plurality of protrusions enclosed on the outer side of the protective shell, a binding strap mounted on the outer side of the rubber ring, and a plurality of through holes opened on the binding strap, wherein the through holes are movably buckled with the protrusions.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when replacing the sponge, the user loosens the strap buckled with the protrusion, and then the rubber ring becomes loose, and then inserts one end of the external tool (crowbar) into the annular gap from the slope, and then prys the crowbar to move the ring body toward the end cover. After the ring body passes the protrusion, the user can easily remove the end cover, and then use tweezers or two fingers to pinch out the sponge to complete the replacement. This is a non-violent replacement, which ensures the service life of the product.

[0010] In a preferred example, the utility model can be further configured as follows: a plurality of convex points are arranged in two circles in an annular shape with equal spacing, the two circles of convex points are respectively located inside two rubber rings, and the convex points are movably plugged into the rubber rings.
[0011] In a preferred example, the utility model can be further configured as follows: the binding strap is arranged in a U shape, and its length is greater than the circumference of the rubber ring.
[0012] In a preferred example, the present invention can be further configured as follows: a slope is provided inside the ring body.
[0013] In a preferred example, the utility model can be further configured as follows: two annular slits are provided on the outer side of the protective shell, and the two annular slits are respectively located on the outer sides of the two slope surfaces.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects achieved by the utility model are as follows:
[0015] 1. In the utility model, when replacing the sponge, the user loosens the strap buckled with the convex point, and then the rubber ring becomes loose, and then inserts one end of the external tool (crowbar) into the annular gap from the slope, and then prys the crowbar to move the ring body toward the end cover. After the ring body passes the convex point, the user can easily remove the end cover, and then use tweezers or two fingers to pinch out the sponge to complete the replacement. Non-violent replacement ensures the service life of this product.
[0016] 2. In the utility model, an external water source is introduced from one end cover, and then the clean water is filtered in the order of sponge - activated carbon - sponge, and the filtered water flows out from the other end cover.
