The terms "disposed", "opened", "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, and an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal communication of two components.

[0041] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application provides a water filter element 5, including a filter cartridge 50 with one end open and the other end closed, a plurality of filter holes 501 are provided on the wall of the filter cartridge 50, the outer surface of the filter cartridge 50 is wrapped with a filter screen 51, and the open end of the filter cartridge 50 is connected to a circular positioning plate 52, and the outer peripheral surface of the positioning plate 52 is provided with a flange 53 extending radially outward.

[0042] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The filter cartridge 50 includes a circle of cylindrical side walls and a bottom wall fixed to one end of the side wall, thereby forming a structure with one end open and the other end closed. A number of filter holes 501 are provided on the side walls and the bottom wall of the filter cartridge 50, and the outer surfaces of the side walls and the bottom wall of the filter cartridge 50 are wrapped with a filter screen 51 covering all the filter holes 501. The filter holes 501 allow the fluid to pass through the filter cartridge 50 smoothly, and the filter screen 51 covering the outside plays a filtering role, ensuring that the fluid can achieve a higher degree of cleanliness after passing through the filter cartridge 50. By reasonably designing the size, number and distribution of the filter holes 501, the pressure loss of the fluid when passing through the filter cartridge 50 can also be reduced. By modifying the pore size of the mesh of the filter screen 51, the filtration accuracy can be changed.

[0043] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The positioning plate 52 is an annular structure. The positioning plate 52 is connected to the open end of the filter cartridge 50 so that the inner hole of the positioning plate 52 is connected to the inner cavity of the filter cartridge 50. For example, the inner diameter of the positioning plate 52 is equal to the inner diameter of the filter cartridge 50, and the outer diameter of the positioning plate 52 is larger than the outer diameter of the filter cartridge 50. The outer diameter of the positioning plate 52 is compatible with the inner diameter of the pipe used to install the water filter element 5. When the water filter element 5 is installed in the pipe, the filter cartridge 50 can be radially positioned by the positioning plate 52 to prevent the filter cartridge 50 from moving radially in the pipe, while allowing the filter cartridge 50 to be installed in the center of the pipe. A flange 53 extending radially outward is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the positioning plate 52. The flange 53 is used to be clamped between the pipe joints of two adjacent butted pipes to fix the filter cartridge 50 and prevent the filter cartridge 50 from moving axially in the pipe.

[0044] The water filter element 5 provided in the embodiment of the present application is used to be installed in the pipeline of the water cooling system to filter out impurities and particulate matter in the water; by connecting the positioning plate 52 to the open end of the filter cartridge 50 and providing a flange 53 on the outer peripheral surface of the positioning plate 52, when the water filter element 5 is placed in the pipeline, the flange 53 can be clamped between the two docking pipe joints to achieve the installation and fixation of the water filter element 5; compared with the prior art, the present application does not require additional connection structures in the pipeline of the water cooling system, reduces the installation difficulty and installation cost of the water filter element 5, and is conducive to the structural serialization and universalization of the water cooling system.

[0045] The flange 53 can be set at any position on the outer peripheral surface of the positioning plate 52. When the water filter element 5 adopts this structure, the water filter element 5 can be installed in a pipeline formed by connecting pipes of the same inner diameter, or the water filter element 5 can be installed in a pipeline with a smaller inner diameter in a pipeline formed by connecting pipes of different inner diameters.

[0046] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The open end of the filter cartridge 50 is connected to one surface of the positioning plate 52, and the flange 53 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the positioning plate 52 and away from one end of the filter cartridge 50. Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The filter cartridge 50 is arranged vertically, with its upper end being open. The positioning plate 52 is arranged horizontally, with the lower surface of the positioning plate 52 fixedly connected to the upper end of the filter cartridge 50. The flange 53 is provided at the upper end of the outer circumference of the positioning plate 52, and the upper surface of the flange 53 is flush with the upper surface of the positioning plate 52. When the water filter element 5 adopts this structure, the water filter element 5 can be installed not only in a pipeline formed by butting together pipes of the same inner diameter, but also in a pipeline formed by butting together pipes of different inner diameters, in a pipe with a larger inner diameter.

[0047] In some embodiments, the positioning plate 52 and the flange 53 are integrally formed. This integral design ensures structural strength between the two, allowing them to better withstand mechanical stress. Since the positioning plate 52 and the flange 53 do not need to be manufactured separately and then reprocessed, production efficiency can be improved, making the production process faster and more economical.

[0048] The open end of the positioning plate 52 can directly abut against the surface of the filter cartridge 50 by welding or bolting. Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The surface of the positioning plate 52 is provided with a mounting groove 521. The open end of the filter cartridge 50 is positioned within the mounting groove 521 and welded to the positioning plate 52. The design of the mounting groove 521 allows the filter cartridge 50 to be positioned in the installation position. The welding method secures the filter cartridge 50, ensuring a stable and secure connection between the filter cartridge 50 and the positioning plate 52, meeting the requirements for long-term safe and stable operation of the system.

[0049] The filter screen 51 can be a non-metallic filter screen or a metal filter screen. In some embodiments, the filter screen 51 is a stainless steel filter screen. The stainless steel filter screen has high acid resistance, alkali resistance, and corrosion resistance, and is suitable for use in various liquid and gas environments with complex chemical properties. Even if it is in contact with corrosive substances for a long time, it is not easy to rust or damage. The stainless steel filter screen also has high strength and good wear resistance, and can withstand a certain amount of pressure and continuous friction, ensuring the service life of the filter screen. The surface of the stainless steel filter screen is smooth, not easy to adhere to dirt, and easy to clean and maintain, which makes the cleaning of the filter screen easier, helps to maintain the filtering effect and extend the service life of the filter screen.

[0050] The filter screen 51 can be fixed to the filter cartridge 50 by bolts. When the filter screen 51 is a stainless steel filter screen, it can also be fixed to the filter cartridge 50 by welding. Figure 1 、 Figure 2, the filter cartridge 50 is connected to a number of fixing rings 54 for fixing the filter screen 51. Exemplarily, the fixing ring 54 is a circular ring structure made of flat steel, and the fixing ring 54 can be connected to the filter cartridge 50 by welding or bolts; the fixing ring 54 includes three, two of which are respectively arranged at both ends of the outer surface of the side wall of the filter cartridge 50 to fix the filter screen 51 on the side wall of the filter cartridge 50, and the other fixing ring 54 is arranged on the end of the inner surface of the side wall of the filter cartridge 50 away from the positioning plate 52 to fix the filter screen 51 on the bottom wall of the filter cartridge 50. The fixing ring 54 can ensure that the filter screen 51 fits tightly to the outer surface of the filter cartridge 50, reducing gaps and improving filtration efficiency. The fixing ring 54 can also prevent the filter screen 51 from deforming under changes in fluid pressure or temperature, thereby maintaining the shape and filtration performance of the filter screen 51.

[0051] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , a handle 55 is connected to the positioning plate 52. By providing the handle 55, a gripping position is provided for the operator to hold, so that the operator can more easily install and remove the water filter element 5. Exemplarily, the handle 55 is provided in the inner hole of the positioning plate 52. By using the inner hole space of the positioning plate 52 to provide the handle 55, external space can be saved, the installation of the positioning plate 52 is not affected, and it helps to provide a better fulcrum during the installation and removal of the water filter element 5, thereby improving the stability and safety of the water filter element during installation and removal. The handle 55 can be connected to the positioning plate 52 by welding, bolting, or integrally formed. The handle 55 can be rod-shaped, with both ends connected to the inner surface of the positioning plate 52. The handle 55 can also be other existing structures, as long as it can be held by the operator, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0052] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 4 The present embodiment provides a water filter element installation structure, comprising two butted pipes 1, each of which is connected to a pipe joint 2 at the butted ends. The two pipe joints 2 are connected by a connector 3, with a sealing gasket 4 disposed therebetween. The structure also includes the water filter element 5 provided in the above-described embodiment, disposed within one of the pipes 1, with a flange 53 sandwiched between the two pipe joints 2. The connector 3 is used to secure the two butted pipe joints 2 together and clamp the sealing gasket 4 and flange 53, thereby not only achieving a seal between the two butted pipe joints 2 but also securing the flange 53. For example, the connector 3 may comprise a clamp or a bolt.

[0053] The water filter element installation structure provided in the embodiment of the present application is such that after the water filter element 5 is placed in the pipe 1, the flange 53 can be clamped between the pipe joints 2 of the two docking pipes 1 to achieve the installation and fixation of the water filter element 5; compared with the prior art, the present application does not require additional connecting structures in the pipelines of the water cooling system, thereby reducing the installation difficulty and cost of the water filter element 5, and facilitating the structural serialization and universalization of the water cooling system.

[0054] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present application. Based on the technical essence of the present application and within the spirit and principles of the present application, any simple modification, equivalent replacement and improvement of the above embodiment shall still fall within the scope of protection of the technical solution of the present application.
