[0002] The water treatment of water plants is relatively extensive and is not enough to remove all impurities, such as particulate pollutants (flocculent gel, silt, and even bacteria). In addition, the aging of the tap water supply network will also bring new pollution to the tap water. In order to further purify the tap water and improve its cleanliness, people use a variety of water purification equipment to treat the tap water. For example, tap water is filtered or ultrafiltered using a water purifier (with activated carbon, PP cotton or ultrafiltration filter material, etc.), and purified water with extremely high purity is obtained using an RO membrane water purifier.

[0003] Generally, the filter element of a water purifier has a certain life span and should be replaced in time after a period of use. Therefore, the filter elements of most existing water purifiers are designed to be detachable to facilitate users to replace the filter elements.
