Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of fuel filtration, and more specifically, to a fuel water detection filter element. Background Technology
[0002] Gasoline and diesel are the two most common types of fuel for motor vehicles. During the transportation and storage of fuel, various impurities inevitably mix in, including solid impurities and water. Existing fuels need to be filtered before being added to motor vehicles to remove these impurities.
[0003] Existing filter elements can filter out solid impurities and moisture during filtration, especially water-detection filter elements, which are equipped with water-absorbing and expanding materials. When the fuel contains a large amount of water, the expansion of these materials will clog the filter element, thus preventing fuel from being added to the car. However, existing filters rely solely on the expansion of the water-absorbing material for this purpose, and under the pressure of fuel being added, the blocking effect can become unstable. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a fuel water detection filter element. Through the setting of the locking mechanism, when the water content in the fuel is high, the water absorption and expansion layer will absorb water and expand, pushing the baffle plate to insert into the bottom of the inner shell for sealing. At this time, the locking mechanism can mechanically lock the guide rod to prevent the baffle plate from loosening the seal on the bottom of the inner shell.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fuel water detection filter element, comprising an outer shell, wherein the outer shell is configured as a circular tube with a vertical axis;

[0013] A water-absorbing and expanding layer is fixedly connected to the inner hole of the water-absorbing ring and passes through the water-absorbing ring;
[0014] A baffle plate is fixedly connected to the top of the water-absorbing and expanding layer. When the baffle plate is inserted upward into the bottom of the inner shell, it seals the bottom of the inner shell.
[0015] A guide rod, wherein several guide rods are provided and fixedly connected to the top of the baffle plate and vertically pass through the water absorption ring;
[0016] And a locking mechanism that locks the guide rod when the baffle is inserted into the bottom of the inner housing.
[0017] The present invention is further configured such that: multiple guide rods are arranged around the axis of the water-absorbing ring, and a locking block is fixedly connected to the side of the guide rod away from the axis of the water-absorbing ring, and the locking block is located below the water-absorbing ring;
[0018] The locking mechanism includes multiple locking components, with each guide rod corresponding to one locking component.

[0020] A fixing block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water-absorbing ring. The fixing block has a guide hole on the side near the guide rod for inserting a locking rod. The end of the locking rod away from the guide rod is inserted into the guide hole and can slide along the length of the locking rod in the guide hole.
[0021] And an elastic element, which is disposed at the end of the locking rod away from the guide rod. When the elastic element is in the normal state, the distance between the end of the locking rod near the guide rod and the guide rod is less than the distance between the side of the locking block away from the guide rod and the guide rod.

[0034] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0035] Example: A fuel water detection filter element, see attached document. Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 5 The system includes an outer shell 1, an inner shell 2, an oil outlet cap 11, a filter layer 3, a separator ring 12, an oil inlet pipe 4, an oil inlet cap 41, a water absorption ring 5, a water absorption expansion layer 6, a baffle plate 7, a guide rod 71, and a locking mechanism. The outer shell 1 is a vertically oriented circular tube. The inner shell 2 is located inside the outer shell 1 and is a circular tube coaxial with the outer shell 1. The top of the outer shell 1 is higher than the top of the inner shell 2, and the bottoms of the outer shell 1 and inner shell 2 are flush. The inner shell 2 has several holes for fuel to pass through, and the top of the outer shell 1 is closed. The oil outlet cap 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer shell 1 and has an oil outlet hole 111. The filter layer 3 surrounds the inner shell 2. The separator ring 12 is fixedly connected to the inner shell 1. At the bottom of the outer shell 2 and the outer shell 1, the inner diameter of the partition ring 12 is equal to the inner diameter of the inner shell 2; the oil inlet pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the partition ring 12; the oil inlet cap 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the oil inlet pipe 4, and the oil inlet pipe 4 is provided with an oil inlet hole 411; the water absorption ring 5 is fixedly connected inside the oil inlet pipe 4, and the water absorption ring 5 is set as a vertically oriented circular ring; the water absorption expansion layer 6 is fixedly connected in the inner hole of the water absorption ring 5 and passes through the water absorption ring 5; the baffle plate 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the water absorption expansion layer 6, and when the baffle plate 7 is inserted upward to the bottom of the inner shell 2, it closes the bottom of the inner shell 2; several guide rods 71 are provided and fixedly connected to the top of the baffle plate 7 and vertically pass through the water absorption ring 5; the locking mechanism locks the guide rods 71 when the baffle plate 7 is inserted into the bottom of the inner shell 2.
[0036] Fuel enters the fuel inlet pipe 4 through the fuel inlet hole 411, then passes upward through the inner hole of the water absorption ring 5, i.e., through the water absorption and expansion layer 6, and then enters the inner shell 2. Afterward, the fuel passes outward through the inner shell 2 and the filter layer 3, filtering impurities during this process. Finally, the fuel exits upward through the fuel outlet hole 111 on the fuel outlet cap 11. When the water content in the fuel is high, the water absorption and expansion layer 6 absorbs water and expands, pushing the baffle plate 7 upward to insert into the bottom of the inner shell 2. During this process, the guide rod 71 also moves upward. When the baffle plate 7 is inserted into the bottom of the inner shell 2, the locking mechanism locks the guide rod 71, ensuring that the baffle plate 7 remains locked to the bottom of the inner shell 2.
[0037] Specifically, multiple guide rods 71 are arranged around the axis of the water-absorbing ring 5. A locking block 711 is fixedly connected to the side of the guide rod 71 away from the axis of the water-absorbing ring 5. The locking block 711 is located below the water-absorbing ring 5. The locking mechanism includes multiple locking components 8. Each guide rod 71 corresponds to one locking component 8. The locking component 8 is located on the side of the corresponding guide rod 71 away from the axis of the water-absorbing ring 5. The locking component 8 is located at the bottom of the water-absorbing ring 5 and is used to lock the locking block 711 on the corresponding guide rod 71.
[0038] Specifically, the locking assembly 8 includes a locking rod 81, a fixing block 82, and an elastic element 83. The length direction of the locking rod 81 is arranged along the radial direction of the water-absorbing ring 5. The fixing block 82 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water-absorbing ring 5. The fixing block 82 has a guide hole 821 on the side near the guide rod 71 for the locking rod 81 to be inserted into. The end of the locking rod 81 away from the guide rod 71 is inserted into the guide hole 821 and can slide along the length direction of the locking rod 81 within the guide hole 821. The elastic element 83 is located at the end of the locking rod 81 away from the guide rod 71. When the elastic element 83 is in its normal state, the distance between the end of the locking rod 81 near the guide rod 71 and the guide rod 71 is less than the distance between the side of the locking block 711 away from the guide rod 71 and the guide rod 71. The top of the locking rod 81 is set as a slope, and the slope is inclined downward on the side near the locking rod 81. When the bottom of the locking block 711 contacts the top of the locking rod 81, the blocking plate 7 is inserted into the bottom of the inner shell 2.
[0039] As the baffle plate 7 moves upward under the action of the water-absorbing expansion layer 6, it drives the guide rod 71 to move upward, which in turn drives the locking block 711 to move upward. During the upward movement of the locking block 711, the inclined surface will contact the side of the locking rod 81 near the guide rod 71. Under the action of the inclined surface, the locking rod 81 will slide away from the guide rod 71 and compress the elastic element 83. When the bottom of the locking block 711 is flush with the top of the locking rod 81, under the action of the elastic element 83, the locking rod 81 will slide towards the guide rod 71 so that the bottom of the locking rod 81 contacts the bottom of the locking block 711. At this time, the baffle plate 7 is inserted into the bottom of the inner shell 2. Under the obstruction of the locking rod 81, the baffle plate 7 cannot detach downward from the bottom of the inner shell 2, thus maintaining the seal of the inner shell 2.
[0040] Specifically, this embodiment also includes a water-absorbing pipe 51 and a supporting mesh frame. The water-absorbing pipe 51 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water-absorbing ring 5, and the inner diameter of the water-absorbing pipe 51 is equal to the inner diameter of the water-absorbing ring 5. The supporting mesh frame is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water-absorbing pipe 51, and the bottom of the water-absorbing expansion layer 6 contacts the top of the supporting mesh frame. Through the arrangement of the supporting mesh frame and the water-absorbing pipe 51, the water-absorbing expansion layer 6 can only expand upwards.
[0041] Specifically, the elastic element 83 is set as a spring, and the two ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the end of the locking rod 81 away from the guide rod 71 and the end of the guide hole 821 away from the guide rod 71, respectively.
[0042] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
