[0031] Figure 4 It is the structure diagram of the support body of bilateral embedded fixed butt joint type fluid filter (left side view and front view). DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] Example 1 - bilateral fixed butt joint type fluid filter

[0033] As Figure 1 The right side is the axial view of the support body of bilateral fixed butt joint type fluid filter, and the left side is the A-A cross-sectional view thereof. The bilateral fixed butt joint type fluid filter is composed of the support body 1, the filter body (as Figure 2 ), the clamping structure (not shown). Among them:

[0034] The support body 1 is a double-sided fixed docking type, with a disc structure. Its outer edge is circular and made of rubber or plastic material, possessing a certain degree of elasticity. It can achieve a tight seal with hard surfaces by tightly docking with them. The support body 1 includes a fixed edge 11 on the outer side and a complete circular Y-shaped groove 16 on the inner side. At the edge of the fixed edge 11, in a direction perpendicular to the overall disc surface of the support body 1, opposite to each other, are Y-shaped first clamping grooves 12 and second clamping grooves 13, used to embed the support body 1 between two fluid pipeline sections; the Y-shaped groove 16 is used to tightly embed a filter element (such as...). Figure 2 ).

[0035] During assembly, Figure 2 The filter element 3 shown is tightly fitted into the filter cavity 14 formed by the Y-shaped groove 16. Due to the elasticity of the support body 1, it can achieve a tight fit with the fixing area 31 of the filter element 3 through the Y-shaped groove 16, forming a seal. Two cylindrical fluid pipelines (not shown) are fitted into the first clamping groove 12 and the second clamping groove 13 of the support body 1 respectively through their pipe walls, so that the two fluid pipelines are flexibly and sealed together, fixing the filter element 3 in the center of the support body 1 between the two fluid pipelines. When fluid flows in the fluid pipeline, due to the seal between the pipeline and the support body 1, and the seal between the Y-shaped groove 16 and the fixing area 31 of the filter element 3, the fluid can only flow through the window 15 in the center of the support body 1 and through the multiple filter holes 32 in the center of the filter element 3. This can block particles or linear objects with a diameter or length larger than the aperture of the filter holes 32, thus achieving fluid filtration.

[0036] Therefore, the advantages of implementing this embodiment are as follows:

[0037] 1. Achieves pipe connection, sealing, and filtration with a simple structure; assembly is simple; maintenance is convenient.

[0038] 2. Low cost;

[0039] 3. All components of the filter are detachable and cleanable, making maintenance simple and allowing for reuse.

[0040] Example 2 – Single-sided fixed docking, single-sided movable docking fluid filter

[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, the right side is an axial view of the support body of the fluid filter with a single-sided fixed docking and a single-sided movable docking, and the left side is a sectional view along the BB direction.

[0042] The single-sided fixed docking and single-sided movable docking fluid filter consists of a support body (Type B) and a filter body (such as...). Figure 2 It consists of a clamping structure (not shown). Among them:

[0043] In this embodiment, the support body 2 of clause B is single-sided fixed butt joint, single-sided movable butt joint, and is a disc structure with a circular outer edge made of rubber or plastic material and a certain elasticity. It is tightly butted against the hard surface to achieve sealing between the hard surface. The support body 2 of clause B includes a fixed edge 21 on the outer side and a whole-circle annular Y-shaped clamping groove 26 on the inner side. The fixed edge 21 is provided with a Y-shaped butt joint lip 22 and a clamping groove 23 in opposite directions on the edge, wherein the clamping groove 23 is used to embed the support body 1 of clause B at the end of the fluid pipeline, and the butt joint lip 22 is used to butt joint with the fluid butt joint structure (such as the butt joint port provided on the container requiring fluid extraction) having a movable butt joint plane. The Y-shaped clamping groove 26 of the support body 2 of clause B is used to tightly embed the filter body (such as Figure 2 ).

[0044] When assembled, the filter body 3 shown in Figure 2 is tightly embedded into the filter cavity 24 formed by the Y-shaped clamping groove 26, and since the support body 2 of clause B has a certain elasticity, it can be tightly matched with the fixed area 31 of the filter body 3 through the Y-shaped clamping groove 26 to form a seal. The end of the fluid pipeline (not shown) is embedded into the clamping groove 23 of the support body 2 of clause B through the pipe wall, so that the fluid pipeline and the support body 2 of clause B complete flexible and sealed butt joint, and the filter body 3 in the center of the support body 2 of clause B is fixed to the end of the fluid pipeline. Then, the butt joint lip 22 is butted to the butt joint port (not shown, which should be provided with a smooth and flat butt joint plane and a fluid through hole) of the work object requiring fluid extraction / supply, and the seal between the butt joint lip 22 having elasticity and the butt joint port of the work object is achieved, so that the plurality of filter holes 32 in the center of the filter body 3 are communicated with the fluid through hole on the butt joint port of the work object. When the fluid flows in the fluid pipeline, since the pipeline and the support body 2 of clause B are sealed, and the Y-shaped clamping groove 26 and the fixed area 31 of the filter body 3 are sealed, the fluid can only pass through the window 25 in the center of the support body 2 of clause B and flow through the plurality of filter holes 32 in the center of the filter body 3, so that the particulate matter or linear matter with a diameter or length greater than the pore diameter of the filter holes 32 can be blocked, and the filtration of the fluid is achieved.

[0045] The benefits of the embodiment are as follows:

[0046] 1. The benefits of embodiment 1;

[0047] 2. The benefits of embodiment 1 are transplanted to the application of single-sided fixed butt joint and single-sided movable butt joint.

[0048] Embodiment 3 - double-sided embedded fixed butt joint fluid filter

[0049] As shown in Figure 4 , the right side is an axial view of the double-sided embedded fixed butt joint fluid filter support body, and the left side is a C-C cross-sectional view thereof.

[0050] The double-sided embedded fixed docking fluid filter consists of a support body (Type C) and a filter body (such as...). Figure 2 It consists of a clamping structure (not shown). Among them:

[0051] In this embodiment, the C-type support 4 is a double-sided embedded fixed docking type, with a disc structure. Its outer edge is circular and made of rubber or plastic material, possessing a certain degree of elasticity. It can achieve a tight seal with hard surfaces by tightly docking with them. The C-type support 4 includes an outer fixed edge 41 and an inner circular Y-shaped groove 46. At the edge of the fixed edge 41, there is an outwardly protruding lip 47. In a direction perpendicular to the overall disc surface of the C-type support 4, two sets of embedded docking tenons are provided opposite to each other. The interface of each embedded docking tenon is trapezoidal, consisting of an outer inclined surface 47, an inner inclined surface 48, and a trapezoidal apex surface 40. By tightly inserting the embedded docking tenons into the ends of two opposing fluid pipes (not shown), a sealed docking of the two fluid pipes is achieved. The Y-shaped groove 46 of the C-type support 4 is used for tightly embedding a filter element (such as...). Figure 2 ).

[0052] During assembly, Figure 2 The filter element 3 shown is tightly fitted into the filter cavity 44 formed by the Y-shaped groove 46. Due to the elasticity of the C-type support 4, it can achieve a tight fit with the fixing area 31 of the filter element 3 through the Y-shaped groove 46, forming a seal. The ends of the two fluid pipelines (not shown) are respectively tightly fitted with the embedded tenon through their pipe walls, completing a flexible and sealed connection, thereby fixing the filter element 3 in the center of the C-type support 4 between the two fluid pipelines. When fluid flows in the fluid pipeline, due to the seal between the pipeline and the C-type support 4, and the seal between the Y-shaped groove 46 and the fixing area 31 of the filter element 3, the fluid can only flow through the window 45 in the center of the C-type support 4 and through the multiple filter holes 32 in the center of the filter element 3. This can block particles or filaments with a diameter or length larger than the aperture of the filter holes 32, thus achieving fluid filtration.

[0053] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 lies in the method of connection between the two fluid pipelines. Embodiment 1 uses a Y-shaped snap-fit ​​connection with the support body, while this embodiment uses an embedded connection within the support body. The advantages of implementing this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiment 1.

[0054] In another embodiment, the outer edge of the filter support is square, polygonal, or other irregular shape to connect to pipes of different shapes or to work objects with interfaces of different shapes.

[0055] In another embodiment, the filter element window at the center of the filter support has a different shape.

[0056] In another embodiment, the filter body of the filter, wherein the central filter region is a filter cotton, a sintered filter core, or the like.

In some cases, the structure described in the claims can be implemented according to the specific embodiments described above to achieve the desired results. Those skilled in the art can easily achieve the desired results according to the specific embodiments described above and the design ideas thereof.
