Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of filters, and specifically relates to a filter capable of backwashing. Background Technology
[0002] With socio-economic development and improved living standards, swimming pools have become widely used for leisure and fitness. However, because swimming pool water is susceptible to the effects of human secretions, impurities, microorganisms, and other pollutants, maintaining water cleanliness is crucial for the normal operation of the pool. Therefore, the demand for pool filtration equipment is increasing daily.
[0003] Traditional pool filters typically use a unidirectional water flow filtration method, meaning they purify the water through filter media. However, these types of filters have the following problems:
[0004] Low cleaning efficiency: During long-term use, the filter material is prone to accumulating a large amount of impurities, leading to blockage. Frequent replacement or manual cleaning is required, which increases maintenance costs.
[0005] Inconvenient to operate: Traditional filters usually require stopping the machine and disassembling during cleaning, which has a certain impact on the normal use of the pool.
[0006] Unsatisfactory filtration effect: Some filters have simple filter material designs that are difficult to effectively handle fine particles or oily contaminants, making it difficult to maintain clean water quality in the long term.
[0007] To address these issues, filters with backwashing capabilities have been gradually applied to pool water treatment. However, existing backwashing filters generally suffer from complex structures, high manufacturing costs, and difficult operation. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a filter that is simple in structure, easy to use and can be backwashed, in view of the current status of the prior art. The filter can be backwashed by innovative design to improve filtration efficiency and extend filter service life.
[0009] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a filter capable of backwashing, comprising a filter cartridge containing filter material, a first pipe for conveying wastewater and a second pipe for discharging clean water on the filter cartridge, a cavity inside the filter cartridge located above the filter material, a filter cage inside the filter material, and a clean water pipe connected to the second pipe and the filter cage; the first pipe is directly connected to the cavity. By setting a cavity inside the filter cartridge, wastewater first enters the cavity and then passes through the filter material and filter cage for filtration, effectively avoiding direct impact of wastewater on the filter material and extending the service life of the filter material. At the same time, the cavity design allows the water flow to clean the filter material more evenly during backwashing, improving the filter's maintenance efficiency and ease of use. The specific backwashing method is as follows: clean water is forced from the second pipe into the clean water pipe, filter cage, and filter material, causing the dirt deposited on the filter material to churn and mix in the cavity before being discharged through the first pipe.
[0010] In the preferred design, the water purification pipe is a straight pipe, perpendicular to the ground. This vertical straight pipe design ensures a simple water flow path with low resistance, improving water flow efficiency and reducing energy loss. Furthermore, this design facilitates later cleaning and maintenance, resulting in a more stable and efficient water flow.
[0011] In the preferred embodiment, the first pipe is perpendicular to and directly opposite the purified water pipe. This perpendicular and directly opposite design of the first pipe helps optimize water flow distribution, making the flow paths of wastewater and purified water more efficient and without interference, further improving filtration efficiency and the effectiveness of backwashing.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, a base is provided below the filter cartridge, the base has a mounting hole, and the filter cartridge has a column inserted into the mounting hole. The column has a limiting protrusion pressing against the lower end of the mounting hole. The mounting hole in the base and the limiting protrusion on the column enhance the installation stability of the filter cartridge, preventing displacement or loosening due to vibration or water pressure, and ensuring the long-term reliability and safety of the filter.
[0013] In the preferred embodiment, the column has a recessed hole with a closed lower end, and the filter cage has a first circular tube that rests on the recessed hole. The recessed hole on the column and its connection with the first circular tube of the filter cage ensure a stable connection between the filter cage and the column, effectively preventing the filter cage from shifting due to water flow impact or strong water flow during backwashing, thus guaranteeing the filtration performance of the filter material.
[0014] In the preferred embodiment, a height difference is provided between the bottom of the filter cage and the bottom of the filter cartridge. This height difference design increases the contact area between the filter material and the water flow, effectively improving the filtration effect. Simultaneously, during backwashing, the height difference creates a powerful water flow, further enhancing cleaning efficiency.
[0015] In the preferred embodiment, both the first and second pipes are located on the cover, and the filter cartridge has a feed port, which is covered by the cover. By placing the first and second pipes on the cover, it facilitates the overall disassembly and maintenance of the filter. The feed port design on the filter cartridge makes filling and replacing the filter media more convenient, and the cover covering the feed port effectively prevents sewage or impurities from leaking out, further improving the filter's sealing performance and ease of operation.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the filter cage is equipped with a second circular tube that fits around the outer circumference of the water purification pipe. The design of the second circular tube on the filter cage, in conjunction with the water purification pipe, improves the guidance of water flow, allowing purified water to flow more efficiently through the filter cage into the water purification pipe. Simultaneously, the second circular tube enhances the structural stability of the filter cage, preventing deformation or displacement due to water flow pressure.
[0017] In the preferred embodiment, the filter material is cotton, and it is arranged in layers to wrap the filter cage.
[0018] In another filter material scheme, the filter material is sand, along with pebbles laid between the sand and the first pipe; bristles are placed between the filter cage and the sand. By using sand as the filter material, smaller particulate impurities can be effectively intercepted; the pebble layer increases the uniformity of water flow distribution and prevents the sand layer from being moved or blocked by the water flow; the bristles provide additional support and auxiliary filtration function for the filter material, helping to filter oily substances while improving the overall cleanliness and durability of the filter material.
