Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of filtration equipment technology, and in particular to an anti-clogging and cleaning structure for activated carbon filter layers. Background Technology

[0002] Activated carbon filter layers are filter structures made primarily of activated carbon. Activated carbon has a rich porous structure and a large specific surface area. It can effectively remove odors, pigments, some harmful chemicals, and tiny particles from water or air through adsorption. It is widely used in water purifiers, air purifiers, gas masks, and other equipment, and is an important component for improving purification effects.

[0003] The activated carbon filter layer anti-clogging cleaning structure is a device designed to prevent the pores of activated carbon from being blocked by impurities and to ensure the filtration effect. It includes various types of structures such as backwashing, vibration, and scraping. Through external impact, fluid backwashing, or mechanical movement, impurities attached to the surface and pores of activated carbon are removed. For example, backwashing uses water flow to impact and remove blockages, and the vibration structure shakes off impurities through high-frequency vibration.

[0004] In existing technologies, some activated carbon filter layer anti-clogging cleaning structures rely on traditional methods of cleaning activated carbon filters, which often involve manual disassembly followed by rinsing or replacement. This is not only cumbersome and time-consuming, but frequent disassembly can also damage the filter layer structure and shorten its lifespan. Although some devices employ backwashing structures, the water flow has limited cleaning effect on impurities inside the activated carbon pores, making it difficult to thoroughly remove deep blockages. This results in deep blockages that are difficult to eradicate, accelerating the decline in activated carbon adsorption performance and significantly reducing the purification effect of the filtration equipment. Therefore, an activated carbon filter layer anti-clogging cleaning structure is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides an activated carbon filter layer anti-clogging and cleaning structure, which aims to improve the problem of deep clogging by impurities in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An activated carbon filter layer anti-clogging and cleaning structure includes a carrier, an activated carbon adsorption layer fixedly connected to the inner wall of the carrier, a rotating column rotatably connected to the front side of the activated carbon adsorption layer, a linkage ring fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating column, two linkage plates fixedly connected to the outside of the linkage ring, multiple linkage slots opened on the linkage plates, a spring fixedly connected to the front inside of the linkage slot, a cleaning column fixedly connected to the rear side of the spring, a spiral blade fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating column, and multiple portable components opened inside the carrier.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0009] The portable component includes a connecting groove, a second spring is fixedly connected to the rear inner wall of the connecting groove, a connecting block is fixedly connected to the front side of the second spring, and a pressure ring is provided inside the carrier, with multiple through holes opened inside the pressure ring.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] The carrier has a cover ring inside, and multiple T-shaped blocks are rotatably connected to the front side of the cover ring;

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] The carrier has multiple limiting grooves inside, and the outside of the T-shaped block is in contact with the inner wall of the limiting groove;

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The cleaning column is slidably connected to the inside of the linkage groove, and the outside of the cleaning column is in contact with the inner wall of the activated carbon adsorption layer.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] The outer side of the connecting block is slidably connected to the inside of the connecting groove, and the outer side of the connecting block is in contact with the inner wall of the through hole;

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0019] The rear side of the cover ring and the front side of the pressure ring are in contact, and a lever is fixedly connected to the outer right side of the pressure ring;

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0021] The front side of the connecting block and the rear side of the pressure ring are in contact, and the exterior of the plurality of connecting grooves is formed inside the carrier.

[0022] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. In this utility model, the water flow impacts the spiral blade to generate power, which drives the rotating column to rotate. Then, through the linkage ring and linkage plate, the cleaning column rotates along the surface of the activated carbon adsorption layer. Under the elastic support of spring one, the cleaning column can adaptively penetrate into the pores of the activated carbon adsorption layer. When the cleaning column encounters the edge of the pore, it will compress spring one and retract. Thus, the cleaning structure is driven by the kinetic energy of water flow, without the need for additional energy, achieving dynamic self-cleaning of the activated carbon adsorption layer and effectively improving cleaning efficiency. The elastic support design of the spring allows the cleaning column to adaptively penetrate into the pores. The characteristic of retracting when encountering resistance ensures the cleaning effect and avoids damage to the activated carbon layer.

[0024] 2. In this utility model, by rotating the T-shaped block, the cover ring is removed, and then the pusher block is moved to drive the pressure ring to rotate, so that the through hole is aligned with the connecting block. The carrier is aligned with the external equipment mounting position. Under the elastic thrust of the second spring, the connecting block slides out of the connecting groove, passes through the through hole and is inserted into the external equipment slot. When the device is not in use, the T-shaped block on the cover ring is embedded in the limiting groove and fixed. At the same time, the second spring pushes the pressure ring to hold the cover ring, thereby realizing quick disassembly and assembly. The spring assists the connecting block to automatically engage, which greatly simplifies the installation process and significantly improves the installation efficiency. The double fixation can not only stabilize the connecting block to prevent it from loosening and falling off, but also effectively prevent external dust from entering. Attached Figure Description

[0032] 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.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of this utility model provides an activated carbon filter layer anti-clogging cleaning structure, including a carrier 1, which provides fixation and support for the internal activated carbon adsorption layer 2. The activated carbon adsorption layer 2 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the carrier 1. The activated carbon adsorption layer 2 is used for water flow adsorption and filtration, effectively removing odors, pigments, some harmful chemicals and small particles and other impurities from water or air. A rotating column 3 is rotatably connected to the front side of the activated carbon adsorption layer 2. The rotating column 3 provides fixation and support for the linkage ring 4. The linkage ring 4 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating column 3. The linkage ring 4 provides fixation and support for the linkage plate 5, and at the same time drives the linkage plate 5 to rotate.

[0034] Two linkage plates 5 are fixedly connected to the outside of the linkage ring 4. The linkage plates 5 provide space for the linkage grooves 6. The linkage plates 5 have multiple linkage grooves 6. The linkage grooves 6 provide fixation and support for the spring 7. The spring 7 is fixedly connected to the front inside of the linkage groove 6. The spring 7 has an elastic function and provides elastic support for its cleaning column 8. The cleaning column 8 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the spring 7. The cleaning column 8 can clean the internal pores of the activated carbon adsorption layer 2 and prevent clogging. The rotating column 3 is fixedly connected to the outside of the spiral blade 9. The spiral blade 9 is used to receive the impact force from the water flow and then rotate, thereby driving the rotating column 3 to rotate. Multiple portable components are opened inside the carrier 1.

[0035] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The portable component includes a connecting groove 10, which provides fixation and support for the second spring 11. The second spring 11 is fixedly connected to the rear inner wall of the connecting groove 10. The second spring 11 has an elastic function and provides elastic support for its connecting block 12. The connecting block 12 is fixedly connected to the front side of the second spring 11. The connecting block 12 is used to snap into an external device and then install the activated carbon adsorption layer 2. A pressure ring 13 is provided inside the carrier 1. The pressure ring 13 is used to block the connecting block 12. Multiple through holes 14 are opened inside the pressure ring 13, which allow the connecting block 12 to pass through.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5The carrier 1 has a cover ring 16 inside, which is used to cover the pressure ring 13 to prevent external dust from entering the interior of the carrier 1. The front side of the cover ring 16 is rotatably connected to multiple T-shaped blocks 17. The T-shaped blocks 17 are used to fit into the interior of the limiting groove 18. Then, the connecting block 12 squeezes the pressure ring 13 through the spring 11, and then applies force to the cover ring 16, so that the cover ring 16 can cover it. The interior of the carrier 1 has multiple limiting grooves 18, which are used to place the T-shaped blocks 17. The outside of the T-shaped blocks 17 is in contact with the inner wall of the limiting groove 18. The T-shaped blocks 17 fit into the interior of the limiting groove 18, and then fix the cover ring 16. The outside of the cleaning column 8 is slidably connected to the interior of the linkage groove 6. The linkage groove 6 provides the limiting and guiding function for the cleaning column 8.

[0037] The outer side of the cleaning column 8 is in contact with the inner wall of the activated carbon adsorption layer 2. The cleaning column 8 can enter the pores of the activated carbon adsorption layer 2 through the elasticity of the spring-7. Then, when the cleaning column 8 moves to the edge of the pore, it is squeezed, causing the cleaning column 8 to retract by squeezing the spring-7. The outer side of the connecting block 12 is slidably connected to the inside of the connecting groove 10. The connecting groove 10 provides a limiting and guiding function for the connecting block 12. The outer side of the connecting block 12 is in contact with the inner wall of the through hole 14. The connecting block 12 can slide through the through hole 14. The rear side of the cover ring 16 is in contact with the front side of the pressure ring 13. The pressure ring 13 receives springs from the rear side. The force applied by the spring 11 compresses the cover ring 16, and then the cover ring 16 can make its pressure ring 13 stick to the front side of the connecting block 12 through the T-block 17. The outer right side of the pressure ring 13 is fixedly connected to the lever 15. When it is necessary to connect an external device, the cover ring 16 is removed, and then the lever 15 is moved to drive the pressure ring 13 to rotate, so that the connecting block 12 can slide through the through hole 14. The front side of the connecting block 12 and the rear side of the pressure ring 13 are in contact. The pressure ring 13 is used to cover the connecting block 12. The exterior of the multiple connecting grooves 10 is opened inside the carrier 1, and the carrier 1 provides space for the connecting grooves 10.

[0038] Working principle: During use, the water flow impacts the spiral blades 9 to generate power, which drives the rotating column 3 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the cleaning column 8 to rotate along the surface of the activated carbon adsorption layer 2 via the linkage ring 4 and linkage plate 5. Under the elastic support of the spring-7, the cleaning column 8 can adaptively penetrate into the pores of the activated carbon adsorption layer 2 to clean the attached impurities. When the cleaning column 8 encounters the edge of the pores, it will compress the spring-7 to retract, continuously cleaning in a cycle to ensure that the pores of the activated carbon adsorption layer 2 remain unobstructed and maintain high-efficiency filtration performance.

[0039] When the activated carbon adsorption layer 2 needs to be installed, the T-block 17 is rotated to remove the cover ring 16, and then the lever 15 is turned to rotate the pressure ring 13 so that the through hole 14 is aligned with the connecting block 12. The carrier 1 is aligned with the external equipment mounting position. Under the elastic thrust of the second spring 11, the connecting block 12 slides out of the connecting groove 10, passes through the through hole 14 and is inserted into the external equipment slot, achieving quick and stable installation. When the device is not in use, the T-block 17 on the cover ring 16 is embedded in the limiting groove 18 for fixation. At the same time, the second spring 11 pushes the pressure ring 13 to press against the cover ring 16, further compacting the connecting block 12 and effectively preventing external dust from entering.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. 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.
