[0026] During the assembly process of a combined water purification filter element, the connecting pipe is first inserted into the lower connecting tube 7 of the lower end cover, the lower end cover 3 is clamped on the lower end of the activated carbon cartridge 1, and then the functional filter material is filled between the connecting pipe 4 and the activated carbon cartridge 1. Finally, the upper connecting tube 6 on the upper end cover 2 is aligned with the connecting pipe 4, and the upper end cover 2 is clamped on the upper end of the activated carbon cartridge 1 to complete the assembly of the filter element. No glue is required during the installation of the end cover of the water purification filter element, so the assembly is relatively convenient and quick.

[0027] During the water filtration process, the filter element passes through the activated carbon cartridge 1 from the side and contacts the functional filter material after being filtered by the activated carbon cartridge 1. After being processed by the functional filter material, it passes through the water-permeable portion 5 and enters the connecting pipe 4, thereby achieving double filtration and improving the quality of water.

[0028] During the water filtration process, the filter element passes through the activated carbon cartridge 1 from the side and is combined with the functional filter material, then enters the connecting pipe 4 from the water-permeable portion 5 at the lower end of the connecting pipe 4 and is discharged from the upper end cover 2. This allows the water to fully contact with the functional material (the functional material can be one or more of activated carbon rings, resin particles, and KDF water purification materials) during the water filtration process, thereby improving the water quality.

[0029] First embodiment: refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4The upper connecting tube 6 and the lower connecting tube 7 are sealed and connected to the connecting pipe 4, which improves the stability between the upper end cover 2, the lower end cover 3 and the connecting pipe 4; the water permeable part 5 is a water permeable hole opened at one end of the connecting pipe 4 near the lower end cover 3; the water passes through the side of the activated carbon cartridge 1 and is filtered by the activated carbon cartridge 1, and then is filtered by the functional material, enters the connecting pipe 4 through the water permeable hole and is discharged.

[0030] Second embodiment: refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 5 The upper connecting cylinder 6 is sealed and connected to the connecting pipe 4. The water permeable part 5 includes a limiting plate 71 installed in the lower connecting cylinder 7. The limiting plate 71 constitutes a water permeable channel. A limiting cylinder 72 is fixed on the limiting plate 71. A limiting ring 73 is fixed at the lower end of the limiting cylinder 72. The limiting ring 73 abuts against the connecting pipe 4. A water permeable cavity 74 is provided at the lower end of the limiting plate 71; the water permeable channel is connected to the water permeable cavity 74; water passes through the side of the activated carbon cylinder 1 and is filtered by the activated carbon cylinder 1, then enters the limiting plate 71 to form a water permeable channel, then enters the water permeable cavity 74, and finally enters the connecting pipe 4.

[0031] Reference Figure 3 A water outlet pipe 21 is installed on the upper end cover 2, and the water outlet pipe 21 is used to connect with the water purifier. The water outlet pipe 21 is connected to the upper connecting tube 6; after the water enters the connecting pipe 4, it is discharged through the water outlet pipe 21. The water outlet pipe 21 is connected to the water purifier, so that the water is discharged from the water outlet of the water purifier.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 The activated carbon cartridge 1 includes an activated carbon filter layer 11, and a pp cotton filter layer 12 is arranged inside the activated carbon filter layer 11; the pp cotton filter layer 12 can reduce the carbon powder that falls off the activated carbon filter layer 11 during the water filtration process and mixes with the functional materials along with the water flow, thereby affecting the water quality.

[0033] Reference Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 A sealing ring 8 is installed on the inner side of the upper end cover 2 and the lower end cover 3; the sealing ring 8 fits with the outer wall of the activated carbon cylinder 1; and reduces the possibility of water entering through the gap between the upper end cover 2 and the lower end cover 3 and the activated carbon cylinder 1 during the filtration process and coming into contact with the functional filter material, thereby affecting the quality of the water.

[0034] Reference Figure 6 , the outer walls of the upper connecting tube 6 and the lower connecting tube 7 are in contact with the inner wall of the activated carbon tube 1; when the upper connecting tube 6 and the lower connecting tube 7 are inserted into the activated carbon tube 1, they abut against the functional filter material filled between the activated carbon tube 1 and the connecting tube 4, reducing the free movement of the functional filter material, thereby improving the water purification effect;

[0035] The outer walls of the upper connecting tube 6 and the lower connecting tube 7 are in contact with the inner wall of the activated carbon tube 1 and can reduce leakage of the functional filter material.
