[0002] The fuel filter plays a vital role in the engine fuel system. Its main function is to filter out impurities in the fuel to ensure the purity of the fuel, thereby protecting the engine and improving its performance and life. Existing fuel filters usually use paper or synthetic fiber materials as filter elements, and separate particulate matter, impurities and water in the fuel through physical filtration methods. However, as the use time increases, impurities on the surface of the filter element will gradually accumulate, resulting in a decrease in filtration efficiency, affecting the fluidity of the fuel, and further affecting the normal operation of the engine.

However, this method not only increases the maintenance cost, but also imposes a certain burden on the environment. Therefore, how to maintain the filtering effect of the annular filter paper without frequently replacing the filter element has become an important direction for the improvement design of the fuel filter. To this end, we design a fuel filter to provide another technical solution to the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0027] The horizontal light rod 18 is located inside the filter housing 1 and is fixedly connected to the filter housing 1. The horizontal light rod 18 passes through the inside of the annular connecting plate 15 and is fixedly connected to the annular connecting plate 15, so that the annular connecting plate 15 can be fixed outside the horizontal light rod 18, enabling the annular connecting plate 15 to be fixed and preventing the movement of the annular connecting plate 15;
[0028] The horizontal rotating column 16 passes through the inside of the annular connecting plate 15 and the filter housing 1 respectively and is rotatably connected to the horizontal rotating column 16 and the filter housing 1 through bearings, enabling the horizontal rotating column 16 to rotate inside the annular connecting plate 15 and the filter housing 1;
