Detailed implementation manners
[0020] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments shown in the drawings:
[0021] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, an integrated anti-backflow water inlet filter includes a filter housing 1 and a filter end cap 2. The filter housing 1 and the filter end cap 2 are detachably connected. Specifically, one side of the filter end cap 2 is provided with a first internal threaded groove 21, the other side of the filter end cap 2 is provided with a first threaded boss 22, one side of the filter housing 1 is provided with a second threaded boss 11, the second threaded boss 11 is connected to the inside of the first internal threaded groove 21, the other side of the filter housing 1 is provided with a second internal threaded groove 16, and the inside of the second internal threaded groove 16 is threadedly connected with a water inlet joint 6. The inside of the water inlet joint 6 is provided with a third internal threaded groove 61. After such a setting, the three-section disassembly design of the filter housing 1, the filter end cap 2 and the water inlet joint 6 is convenient for the user's later assembly and maintenance, and the third internal threaded groove 61 on the water inlet joint 6 is convenient for connecting to the water inlet pipeline.
[0022] In this embodiment, a first filter screen 3 is provided inside the filter housing 1, a second filter screen 4 is provided inside the first filter screen 3, the first filter screen 3 is filled with particulate matter that can compress the second filter screen 4, and the particulate matter is activated carbon or calcium sulfite. Activated carbon is selected because it has a well-developed internal pore structure, a large specific surface area, and excellent adsorption performance. These characteristics enable activated carbon to effectively remove harmful substances such as odor, chlorine, cyanide and various heavy metal ions in water. Calcium sulfite is selected to remove residual chlorine in water, including combined residual chlorine and free residual chlorine. A first annular boss 12 and a second annular boss 13 are provided on one side of the interior of the filter housing 1, and the gap between the first annular boss 12 and the second annular boss 13 is a first limiting groove 14. A plurality of first annular bosses 12 and 13 are provided on the other side of the interior of the filter housing 1. A limiting boss 15, one end of the first filter 3 is inserted into the first limiting groove 14, the other end of the first filter 3 is supported by the first limiting boss 15, the bottom of the second filter 4 is attached to the top of the second annular boss 13, and the side of the second filter 4 is provided with a plurality of rectangular bosses 41, each of the rectangular bosses 41 is attached to the inside of the first filter 3. After such arrangement, the double filter design of the first filter 3 and the second filter 4 makes the entire filter have a better filtering effect, and the particles of activated carbon or calcium sulfite make the water quality entering the washing machine purer, and can be better mixed with the laundry detergent for cleaning when washing clothes, and the design of the second filter 4 being arranged inside the first filter 3 further saves space, which is conducive to the integration of the entire filter while improving performance.
[0023] In this embodiment, an anti-backflow component 5 is provided between the interior of the second filter screen 4 and the bottom of the filter housing 1. Specifically, a filter screen inner groove 42 is provided inside the second filter screen 4. One end of the anti-backflow component 5 is stuck in the filter screen inner groove 42, and the other end is stuck to the bottom of the filter housing 1. The anti-backflow component 5 includes an anti-backflow housing 51, an anti-backflow circular plate 54, a support column body 52, and a metal spring 56. A flow guiding through hole 511 is provided in the middle of the anti-backflow housing 51. A number of support column bodies 52 are provided on the anti-backflow housing 51 in the direction towards the center. An annular sliding groove 53 is provided at the end of the support column body 52. A guiding column body 55 is provided on the surface of the anti-backflow circular plate 54. The guiding column body 55 is slidably connected to the inside of the annular sliding groove 53. A metal spring 56 is provided between the anti-backflow circular plate 54 and the support column body 52. After such a setting, whenever water flows from top to bottom, the water will impact the anti-backflow circular plate 54, causing the guiding column body 55 to slide inside the annular sliding groove 53. In this way, there will be a gap between the top of the anti-backflow circular plate 54 and the anti-backflow housing 51, and the water can move downward normally. However, if the water flows backward from bottom to top, the water will also impact the anti-backflow circular plate 54, causing it to fit against the flow guiding through hole 511 and completely block it. During this process, the metal spring 56 on the support column body 52 provides a guiding effect to drive the guiding column body 55 to slide upward inside the annular sliding groove 53.
[0024] Working principle and usage method of the present utility model:
[0025] First, the third internal thread groove 61 on the water inlet joint 6 is connected to the water inlet pipeline. Then, the water will flow downward from the through hole on the water inlet joint 6 until it enters the interior of the filter housing 1. When entering, it will pass through the first filter screen 3 and the second filter screen 4 in sequence. This double-filter screen design makes the whole filter have a better filtering effect. Coupled with the particulate matter of activated carbon or calcium sulfite, the water quality entering the washing machine is made purer, and it can better blend with the washing liquid during washing for cleaning. After the water passes through the first filter screen 3 and the second filter screen 4 in sequence, the water will impact the anti-backflow circular plate 54 inside the anti-backflow housing 51, causing the guiding column body 55 to slide inside the annular sliding groove 53. In this way, there will be a gap between the top of the anti-backflow circular plate 54 and the anti-backflow housing 51, and the water can move downward normally. However, if the water flows backward from bottom to top, the water will also impact the anti-backflow circular plate 54, causing it to fit against the flow guiding through hole 511 and completely block it. During this process, the metal spring 56 on the support column body 52 provides a guiding effect to drive the guiding column body 55 to slide upward inside the annular sliding groove 53.
[0026] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the spirit of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art to which the present utility model pertains may make various modifications or supplements to the described specific embodiments or use similar means for substitution, but will not deviate from the spirit of the present utility model or exceed the scope defined by the appended claims.
