[0022] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0023] A fuel filter element 6 and a filter, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a shell 3 and a filter element 6. The shell 3 includes a screw cap 1 and a shell body 2. Specifically, the shell body 2 adopts a threaded ring integrally formed on the outer wall of the shell body 2. The screw cap 1 and the shell body 2 are threadedly connected. The integral molding can improve the connection strength between the threaded ring and the shell body 2 and reduce the production cost. The threaded connection can provide good sealing, prevent fuel leakage, and ensure the normal operation of the fuel system. At the same time, the threaded connection makes the installation and removal of the screw cap 1 simple and quick, which is convenient for maintenance personnel to replace and maintain the filter element 6.
[0024] Specifically, an oil inlet 4 and an oil outlet 5 are provided on the rotary cover 1, a filter element 6 is arranged in the housing 2, an oil delivery channel 7 is formed between the filter element 6 and the inner wall of the housing 2, a baffle 8 is detachably connected to the housing 2, and an array of oil delivery holes 9 are provided on the baffle 8, which are connected to the oil inlet 4 and the oil delivery channel 7. The oil outlet 5 is located just above the center of the filter element 6, and a sealing ring 10 is provided on the baffle 8. When the rotary cover 1 and the housing 2 are fixed, the sealing ring 10 presses against the rotary cover 1 and the baffle 8. Specifically, the sealing ring 10 is made of rubber material, which has good elasticity and will not collide with the rotary cover 1 and the housing 2 during the fixing process of the rotary cover 1 and the housing 2, thereby protecting the rotary cover 1 and the housing 2 from damage. The presence of the sealing ring 10 ensures that the oil is completely sealed before entering the filter element 6, thereby improving the filtration efficiency and avoiding It prevents unfiltered oil from directly entering the engine. At the same time, the sealing ring 10 can effectively fill the tiny gap between the screw cover 1 and the baffle 8 to prevent fuel leakage and ensure that the oil will not be lost during the filtering process. By setting the oil delivery hole 9 and the oil delivery channel 7, the contaminated oil will enter the oil delivery channel 7 through the oil delivery hole 9 after entering the oil inlet 4, and will be filtered by the filter element 6 and then discharged through the oil outlet 5. Since the oil outlet 5 is located directly above the center of the filter element 6, it helps to ensure that the clean oil can smoothly flow into the oil outlet 5 after being filtered by the filter medium 15, reducing the flow restriction problem that may be caused by the improper position of the oil outlet 5. At the same time, this solution saves the design of the flow channel by setting the oil delivery channel 7, while ensuring the filtering effect of the filter, simplifying the structure and reducing maintenance costs.
[0025] Furthermore, a positioning ring 11 is provided on the outer wall of the baffle 8, and an annular groove 12 is provided on the inner wall of the rotary cover 1. When the rotary cover 1 and the housing 2 are fixed, a space for accommodating the positioning ring 11 is formed between the annular groove 12 and the peripheral wall of the housing 2. The design of the positioning ring 11 and the annular groove 12 ensures the accurate position of the baffle 8 in the housing 2, prevents the baffle 8 from offsetting during the installation process, and ensures the correct path of oil flow. Through the cooperation of the positioning ring 11 and the annular groove 12, the assembly process can be simplified, the error during assembly can be reduced, and the assembly efficiency can be improved. At the same time, the positioning ring 11 is embedded in the annular groove 12, which enhances the fixation of the baffle 8 and the rotary cover 1 and improves the stability of the entire filter structure. When the positioning ring 11 is embedded in the annular groove 12, a better sealing effect can be formed, reducing the leakage of oil between the baffle 8 and the rotary cover 1.
[0026] The filter element 6 includes an end cover 13, a base 14 and an annular filter medium 15. Specifically, the end cover 13 and the base 14 are respectively bonded to the two ends of the filter medium 15. This design can provide better structural stability, ensure that the filter medium 15 maintains its shape and position during the flow of oil, thereby improving the stability of the structure. The annular filter medium 15 can provide a larger filtration area, thereby improving the filtration efficiency and effect. The end cover 13 and the baffle are detachably connected, making the replacement of the filter element 6 more convenient and quick, thereby reducing maintenance time and cost. Specifically, the end cover 13 is integrally formed with several symmetrically arranged blocks 16 that can be snapped into the oil delivery hole 9. The integrally formed block 16 on the end cover 13 can be snapped into the oil delivery hole 9, ensuring that the filter element 6 is accurately aligned with the oil delivery hole 9 on the baffle 8 during installation, thereby ensuring smooth flow of oil. At the same time, the snap-on method also makes it convenient for maintenance personnel to easily check and replace the filter element 6, thereby improving the convenience of maintenance.
[0027] A support frame 17 is provided between the end cover 13 and the base 14, and the filter medium 15 is sleeved on the support frame 17. A plurality of through holes 18 are opened on the support frame 17. The through holes 18 on the support frame 17 allow the clean oil filtered by the filter medium 15 to pass through and enter the oil outlet 5, thereby ensuring the oil outlet efficiency of the filter. The design of the support frame 17 provides stable support for the filter medium 15 to prevent the medium from deforming under the flow of oil or pressure changes. At the same time, the existence of the support frame 17 enhances the structural strength of the entire filter element 6, enabling it to withstand greater working pressure.
[0028] The center of the base 14 is recessed upward to form a protrusion 19, and the support frame 17 is mounted on the protrusion 19. The height of the protrusion 19 is less than the height of the support frame 17, and the diameter of the base 14 is greater than the outer diameter of the filter medium 15. The protrusion 19 of the base 14 provides stable support for the support frame 17, which helps to maintain the stability of the entire filter element 6 structure. The height of the protrusion 19 is less than the height of the support frame 17, which can effectively utilize space while ensuring that the filter medium 15 is properly supported on the support frame 17. The diameter of the base 14 is greater than the outer diameter of the filter medium 15, which can provide a wider support surface for the filter medium 15, reducing the risk of the filter medium 15 being offset or deformed under oil pressure. At the same time, this design may simplify the production process because the support frame 17 can be directly mounted on the protrusion 19, reducing additional assembly steps.
[0029] A water level sensor 20 is provided on the inner bottom surface of the shell 2. The water level sensor 20 can monitor the water level in the filter in real time. When the water in the filter reaches a certain height, the water level sensor 20 will sound an alarm. At this time, the operator can open the valve at the bottom of the shell 2 to allow water to flow out of the valve, thereby avoiding the water level in the filter being too high. Through automatic monitoring and drainage, the time and cost of manual inspection and maintenance are reduced.
