Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of RO membrane water treatment equipment, and specifically to an RO membrane water treatment device. Background Technology

[0002] RO water treatment system, also known as reverse osmosis water treatment system, is a membrane separation technology developed in the 1960s. Its principle is that raw water passes through a reverse osmosis membrane under high pressure, and the solvent in the water diffuses from high concentration to low concentration, thereby achieving the purpose of separation, purification and concentration. Because it is the opposite of the osmosis direction in nature, it is called reverse osmosis.

[0003] The core component of an RO water treatment system is the RO membrane water treatment equipment. This equipment typically includes a housing, an RO membrane filter element (hereinafter referred to as the filter element), and delivery pipes. The filter element is installed inside the housing, and the housing is connected to the delivery pipes. Traditionally, delivery pipes are installed at both ends of the housing, and these pipes connect the housing to the filter element. When the equipment is working, wastewater enters from one end of the housing, is filtered by the filter element, and then exits from the other end. The filtered water is discharged from the outlet on the side of the housing. This traditional design makes it inconvenient to replace the filter element due to the obstruction of the delivery pipes at both ends. Therefore, an RO membrane water treatment equipment is proposed to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

It should also be understood that the terms “comprising,” “including,” or “having,” etc., specify the presence of the stated feature, whole, step, operation, component, part, or combination thereof, but do not preclude the possibility of the presence or addition of one or more other features, wholes, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2An RO membrane water treatment device includes: a filter element 3, a housing 1 sleeved on the filter element 3, an inlet pipe 7, a pure water pipe 14, and an outlet pipe 15.

[0037] The inlet pipe 7, the pure water pipe 14, and the outlet pipe 15 are located on one side of the circumferential surface of the outer shell 1;

[0038] The outer edges of both ends of the filter element 3 are sealed to the inner wall of the outer shell 1 through sealing rings;

[0039] Two sealing rings divide the internal space of the outer shell 1 into a first space, a second space and a third space. The first space is connected to the water inlet pipe 7 through a connector, the second space is connected to the pure water pipe 14 through a one-way valve 4, and the third space is connected to the discharge pipe 15 through a one-way valve 4.

[0040] The outer casing 1 has sealing caps at both ends for sealing the outer casing;

[0041] The outer casing 1 has a side tube 13 on its side. The side tube 13 includes a first side tube 131 and two second side tubes 132. The first side tube 131 is disposed between the two second side tubes 132. The two second side tubes 132 are respectively connected to the outer casing 1 through a one-way valve 4 and a connector. The first side tube 131 is connected to the outer casing 1 through the one-way valve 4. Liquid can only flow from the outer casing 1 to the one-way valve 4, and cannot flow in the opposite direction.

[0042] Based on the above, filter element 3 is existing technology. The existing filter element 3 also divides the space inside the outer shell 1 into three parts through a sealing ring. The first space and the third space are used for the inlet and outlet of sewage, respectively, and the second space is used for the outlet of pure water, i.e., the filtered water.

[0043] The outer casing 1 is connected to the inlet pipe 7, the pure water pipe 14, and the outlet pipe 15 via the first side pipe 131, the second side pipe 132, and the third side pipe 133, respectively. When the sewage enters the interior of the outer casing 1 through the inlet pipe 7 and the first side pipe 131, it flows into the water inlet of the filter element 3. The pure water filtered by the filter element 3 flows into the space in the middle and flows into the pure water pipe 14 through the one-way valve 4 and is discharged. The filtered sewage is discharged from the water inlet at the other end of the filter element 3 and flows into the interior of the outlet pipe 15 through the third side pipe 133 and the one-way valve 4. The above three pipes and side pipes are all located on the side of the outer casing 1, so that no pipes are set at both ends of the outer casing 1, thus providing sufficient space for the filter element 3 to be pulled out.

[0044] The one-way valve 4 prevents the discharged pure water and sewage from flowing back, so there is no need to worry about pure water and sewage entering the interior of the outer shell 1 when the filter element 3 is pulled out.

[0045] Example 2

[0046] Based on Example 1, such as Figures 5-7 As shown, the sealing cover 2 includes a cover body 21 disposed at both ends of the outer shell 1 and extending into the interior of the outer shell 1. There is a gap between the portion of the cover body 21 extending into the interior of the outer shell 1 and the outer shell 1. A compression ring 23 is sleeved on the outside of the cover body 21. A first connecting hole 24 and a second connecting hole 25 are provided on the outer circumferential surface of the cover body 21. The first connecting hole 24 and the second connecting hole 25 are respectively disposed on both sides of the compression ring 23. The cover body 21 can be connected to the second side tube 132 through the first connecting hole 24.

[0047] Each of the two covers 21 has an inner cylinder 26 on one side opposite to the other. The outer surface of the inner cylinder 26 has a third connecting hole 27. The filter element 3 is disposed between the two inner cylinders 26. The water inlet of the filter element 3 is connected to the first connecting hole 24 and the second connecting hole 25 through the third connecting hole 27.

[0048] The outer diameters at both ends of the compression ring 23 are smaller than the outer diameter in the middle of the compression ring 23, and the maximum outer diameter of the compression ring 23 is the same as the inner diameter of the outer shell 1;

[0049] Based on the above, the sealing cap 2 serves to seal the outer shell 1, so that both ends of the outer shell 1 are in a closed state, preventing liquid from flowing from both ends. The sealing cap 2 and the outer shell 1 can be sealed by setting a sealing ring.

[0050] The first connecting hole 24 and the second connecting hole 25 are provided so that the closed cover 2 can communicate with the side pipes 13 located at both ends of the outer shell 1. The inner cylinder 26 is designed to cooperate with the structure of the filter element 3. On the one hand, after the water inlet of the filter element 3 extends into the inner cylinder 26, the filter element 3 is fixed in position under the action of the inner cylinders 26 at both ends. On the other hand, sewage can flow into the interior of the filter element 3 after passing through the third connecting hole 27 and the inner cylinder 26. Conversely, the sewage filtered at the other end of the filter element 3 can be discharged after passing through the third connecting hole 27 and the inner cylinder 26.

[0051] The sealing cover 2 not only serves to seal the outer shell 1, but also works in conjunction with the outer shell 1, the side tube 3, and the three pipes located on the side of the outer shell 1 in Embodiment 1, enabling the device to operate normally.

[0052] Example 3

[0053] Based on Example 2, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figures 8-10As shown, the connector includes a connecting cylinder 5 that communicates with the second side tube 132. A valve core 8 is provided inside the connecting cylinder 5. A limit block 9 and an installation cylinder 6 are sequentially provided on the side of the valve core 8 away from the outer shell 1. A spring 12 is provided between the valve core 8 and the limit block 9. A pressing rod 11 extending into the outer shell 1 is provided at the end of the valve core 8 near the outer shell 1.

[0054] The limiting block 9 includes a partition 92 disposed between the connecting cylinder 5 and the mounting cylinder 6. The partition 92 is provided with a guide post 91 and a water inlet 93 on the side facing the outer shell 1. The connecting cylinder 5 and the mounting cylinder 6 are interconnected through the water inlet 93.

[0055] The valve core 8 includes a valve core body 81. A guide groove 82 is provided at one end of the valve core body 81 near the limiting block 9. The guide post 91 extends into the interior of the guide groove 82. The connecting cylinder 5 can be blocked by the valve core body 81.

[0056] The extrusion rod 11 includes a main rod body 111, one end of which is provided with a connecting rod 112. The connecting rod 112 is connected to the valve core 8. The end of the main rod body 111 away from the valve core 8 passes through the connecting cylinder 5 and the first side tube 131 in sequence and then contacts the circumferential surface of the middle part of the extrusion ring 23. A gasket 10 is provided between the main rod body 111 and the valve core 8. The gasket 10 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting rod 112.

[0057] Based on the above, the cooperation between the limit block 9, the valve core 8 and the spring 12 acts as a check valve. When sewage enters the interior of the mounting cylinder 6 through the inlet pipe 7, the sewage pushes the valve core 8 upward. At this time, the valve core 8 is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the connecting cylinder 5, achieving a sealing effect. At this time, sewage cannot enter the interior of the first side pipe 131 through the connecting cylinder 5.

[0058] The compression rod 11 is designed such that after the sealing cover 2 is connected to the outer shell 1, the compression ring 23 pushes the compression rod 11 downward, and the compression rod 11 drives the valve core 8 downward, causing the valve core 8 to separate from the inner wall of the connecting cylinder 5, thereby connecting the mounting cylinder 5 and the first side pipe 131, allowing sewage to enter the interior of the first side pipe 131. During this process, the spring 12 is in a compressed state. When the sealing cover 2 is separated from the outer shell 1, the valve core 8 resets under the action of the spring force, causing the valve core 8 to close the connecting cylinder 5 again.

[0059] The water inlet 93 in the above process allows sewage to flow into the interior of the connecting cylinder 5 after passing through the limiting block 9.

[0060] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
