[0029] Existing carbon rod filter cartridges have a water flow path where water flows in from the outside of the carbon rod, radially from the outside to the inside, and then out through the central hole. The effective path is the wall thickness of the carbon rod. With generally increased flow velocities, their filtration performance becomes significantly insufficient. This application modifies the filter cartridge structure so that the water flow path is essentially along the axial length of the filter cartridge. This allows for more thorough contact between the carbon rod and the water flow, enabling the carbon rod to function more fully and evenly. This not only improves filter cartridge efficiency but also reduces the size of the filter cartridge.
[0030] The carbon rod filter element structure provided in this embodiment of the invention can be applied to the filter of a water purification device or system for adsorbing odors, discoloration, organic matter, and some heavy metals in water. The carbon rod filter element structure includes a shell and a carbon rod disposed within the shell. The shell, as the outer casing, is generally cylindrical and includes a top end, a bottom end, and a side wall located between the top and bottom ends. The shell has an inlet and an outlet, which can be respectively located at the top end, bottom end, or side wall. The carbon rod is generally cylindrical and has two end faces and a side surface between the two end faces. The outer surface of the carbon rod is covered with a water-impermeable coating or waterproof layer, including but not limited to a silicone sleeve or waterproof tape. The carbon rod has an inlet and an outlet, with the inlet located near the inlet of the shell and the outlet located near the outlet of the shell. One or two annular sealing structures are provided between the shell and the silicone sleeve of the carbon rod. The water entering through the inlet of the housing flows axially through the carbon rod and for at least half its length.
