Furthermore, improper operation or excessive pressure during membrane unclogging can cause internal membrane fibers to break, severely reducing the membrane's filtration performance.

[0004] Therefore, we propose an enhanced hollow fiber nanofiltration membrane to address the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. By setting through grooves at both ends of the filter membrane inside the membrane tube, and embedding screen tubes inside the through grooves, the liquid passes through the screen tubes before passing through the filter membrane. The filter screen inside the screen tubes filters out particulate matter and other impurities in the liquid as it passes through, removing impurities from the liquid. This achieves pretreatment of the liquid, reducing the impurity content in the raw water and preventing impurities from entering the filter membrane with the raw water, thereby reducing the chance of membrane clogging, effectively preventing the production of blockages, and reducing the frequency of unclogging.

[0015] 2. The rotatable and telescopic sealing plate on the outer wall of the channel can cover and seal the channel after the screen tube is installed, and can also position and lock the screen tube installation position inside, thereby improving the sealing performance between the screen tube and the membrane tube after installation.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-4 An enhanced hollow fiber nanofiltration membrane includes a membrane tube 1. The membrane tube 1 contains a processing component for pre-filtration of the transported liquid. The processing component includes through grooves 2 on the outer walls at both ends of the membrane tube 1 for positioning a screen tube 3. Each through groove 2 has a sliding groove 201 on its inner wall. A screen tube 3 is installed inside the through groove 2, and a filter screen is installed inside the screen tube 3. The screen tube 3 can be installed into the through groove 2 by sliding a slider 301 within the sliding groove 201. Since the screen tube 3 is installed at both ends of the filter membrane inside the membrane tube 1, the liquid first passes through the screen tube 3 before entering the filter membrane. The screen inside the screen tube 3 filters out particulate matter and other impurities in the liquid as it passes through, reducing the impurity content and preventing impurities from entering the filter membrane along with the liquid. Slider 301s are provided on both sides of the outer wall of the screen tube 3.

[0024] In this embodiment: by installing screen tubes 3 at both ends of the filter membrane inside the membrane tube 1, the liquid will pass through the screen tubes 3 after entering the membrane tube 1. The liquid is pretreated by the screen tubes 3, and the impurities in the liquid are initially filtered, so that the impurity content in the liquid entering the filter membrane is reduced, which effectively reduces the chance of filter membrane clogging and improves the service life of the filter membrane, ensuring the performance of the filter membrane.

[0025] Example 2: This example is an improvement on Example 1. For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-4One end of the inner wall of the through groove 2 is provided with a positioning groove 4 for receiving one end of the sealing plate 5 and positioning the angle of the sealing plate 5 when it slides. The other end is provided with a locking groove 8. A magnet 401 is provided inside the positioning groove 4. The magnet 401 can magnetically attract the sealing plate 5 with the magnetic plate 6 at one end of the sealing plate 5 after the sealing plate 5 extends out of the positioning groove 4, thereby supporting and positioning the sealing plate 5 at the extended position. A toothed rack 9 is provided on the inner wall of the locking groove 8. Both through grooves 2 are provided with sealing plates 5 to cover and seal the through grooves 2, thereby improving the sealing performance of the through grooves 2. A magnetic plate 6 is provided at one end of the sealing plate 5, and an insert plate 7 is provided at the other end. When the sealing plate 5 rotates to cover the through groove 2, the insert plate 7 at the other end is inserted into the locking groove 8 on the inner wall of the through groove 2. Multiple locking teeth 701 are provided on the outer wall of the insert plate 7. The two through grooves 2 are distributed at both ends of the filter membrane inside the membrane tube 1, and the screen tube 3 is located inside the through groove 2. The aperture of the screen tube 3 is larger than that of the through groove 2. One end of the slider 301 is connected to the outer wall of the screen tube 3, and the other end extends into the slide groove 201 and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 201. The magnet 401 is embedded in the inner wall of the positioning groove 4. One end of the sealing plate 5 is located in the positioning groove 4 and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the positioning groove 4. The end of the sealing plate 5 near the positioning groove 4 is connected to the magnet 6. The other end of the sealing plate 5 is located in the through groove 2 and covers and seals the opening area of ​​the through groove 2 by sliding. Sealing strips are installed on both the inner wall of the through groove 2 and the outer wall of the sealing plate 5. The insert plate 7 is located away from the positioning groove 4 from the sealing plate 5. The insert plate 7 is inserted into the locking groove 8 on the inner wall of the through groove 2 by sliding the sealing plate 5. Multiple teeth 701 are arrayed on the outer wall of the insert plate 7. After the insert plate 7 is embedded in the locking groove 8, it abuts and meshes with the rack 9 on the inner wall of the locking groove 8. Sealing gaskets are installed in both the positioning groove 4 and the locking groove 8 area.

[0026] In this embodiment: after the screen tube 3 is installed, the sealing plate 5 is pulled to slide out of the positioning groove 4 and cover and seal the through groove 2. At the same time, the insert plate 7 at the other end is inserted into the locking groove 8 on the inner wall of the through groove 2. The locking teeth 701 on the outer wall of the insert plate 7 abut and mesh with the rack 9 on the inner wall of the locking groove 8, thereby improving the sealing performance of the through groove 2 after it is closed.

[0027] Working principle: In use, the slide block 301 on the outer wall of the screen tube 3 first guides the screen tube 3 to slide into the through groove 201 on the inner wall of the through groove 2, thereby installing the screen tube 3 into the through groove 2. Then, the sealing plate 5 is pulled out from the positioning groove 4 to cover and seal the through groove 2. At the same time, the insert plate 7 at the other end of the sealing plate 5 is inserted into the locking groove 8 and engages with the toothed tooth 701 and the toothed tooth 9 on the inner wall of the locking groove 8 to seal the through groove 2. When the liquid enters the membrane tube 1, the liquid will first pass through the screen tube 3. The screen tube 3 pre-treats the impurities in the liquid and performs preliminary filtration to reduce the impurity content in the liquid. The liquid after passing through the screen tube 3 then enters the filter membrane.
