Detailed Implementation
[0026] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The advantages and features of the present invention will become clearer from the following description. It should be noted that the drawings are all in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions, and are only used to facilitate and clarify the illustration of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0027] like Figures 1-7 As shown, this utility model embodiment specifically provides a quick-release end cap assembly, including:
[0028] The connecting end cover 1 is arranged in the form of a circular plate structure, and the inner and outer circular ends of the connecting end cover 1 are respectively provided with a number of locking blocks 11 and locking blocks 12 in the circumferential direction;
[0029] The connecting chuck 2 is arranged in a circular ring plate structure, and several slots 1 21 and slot 2 22 are respectively provided in the circumferential direction near the bottom of the inner and outer circular ends of the connecting chuck 2. Slots 1 21 and slot 2 22 are used to engage the first block 11 and the second block 12 respectively.
[0030] The elastic limiting structure 3 is vertically and circumferentially arranged at the bottom of the connecting chuck 2 and above the slot 21. The elastic limiting structure 3 vertically limits and fixes the slot 21 and the block 11. When using the above end cap assembly, the connecting end cap 1 can be screwed into the slots 21 and 22 on the connecting chuck 2 of the external air filter unit through the blocks 11 and 12. When the connecting end cap 1 is rotated into place, the elastic limiting structure 3 applies an elastic force to limit and fix the block 11.
[0031] The elastic limiting structure 3 includes: a protrusion 31, a spring, a ball bearing 32, and a positioning hole 33. The protrusion 31 is positioned above the slot 21, and an axial slot is formed on the protrusion 31. A spring is fitted into the slot, with one end of the spring connected to the slot and the other end connected to the ball bearing 32. The positioning hole 33 is formed on the locking block 11. When the elastic limiting structure 3 is in use, i.e., when the connecting end cap 1 is screwed into the connecting chuck 2, the screwing into the locking block 11 applies a force to the spring fitted with the ball bearing 32. At this time, the spring is compressed, and the ball bearing 32 moves upward into the slot of the protrusion 31. When the positioning hole 33 on the locking block 11 is rotated to align directly below the ball bearing 32, the ball bearing 32, under the elastic force of the spring, moves downward and abuts against the positioning hole 33, thereby completing the positioning and locking of the locking block 11 and the slot 21.
[0032] The spring is a compression spring to enhance the vertical elastic force on the ball 32. The ball 32 is a round steel ball, and the positioning hole 33 is a hemispherical hole to enhance the contact and positioning effect between the round steel ball and the hemispherical hole.
[0033] The first locking block 11 and the second locking block 12 are designed as wedge blocks, and the first locking slot 21 and the second locking slot 22 are provided with wedge grooves for cooperating with the wedge blocks. Through the cooperation of the wedge blocks and the wedge grooves, they can be better adapted to the elastic limiting structure 3 and apply force to the spring and the ball 32.
[0034] Three card blocks (11) are placed, and six card blocks (12) are placed.
[0035] The bottom inner and outer sides of the connecting end cap 1 are provided with annular raised edges 13 for sealing the assembled filter element.
[0036] This utility model also specifically provides an air filter cartridge, including: a quick-release end cap assembly, a filter screen 4, and a bottom end cap 5 as described above; the upper end of the filter screen 4 is equipped with a connecting end cap 1, and the lower end of the filter screen 4 is equipped with a bottom end cap.
[0037] It also includes a lug 51, which is circumferentially arranged on the outer circumference of the bottom end cover 5. Since the connecting chuck 2 mounted on the external air filter unit is positioned high, the lug 51 can reduce the working height and make it easier for the operator to apply rotational force through the lug 51 to quickly assemble the air filter cartridge onto the connecting chuck 2 mounted on the external air filter unit without having to apply rotational force to the connecting end cover 1.
[0038] The above description is only a description of the preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model in any way. Any changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the above disclosure shall fall within the protection scope of the claims.
