Detailed Implementation

[0022] Example 1

[0023] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention proposes a backwashable dual-switch filter, comprising a cylinder 1, connecting pipes 2, a three-way ball valve 3, metal filter elements 4, and a cleaning assembly. Two cylinders 1 are arranged in parallel, each cylinder 1 is connected to two vertically parallel connecting pipes 2, and both cylinders 1 are connected to three-way ball valves 3. The pipes and valves are connected by flanges. The number of metal filter elements 4 corresponds to the number of cylinders 1, and the metal filter elements 4 are installed inside the cylinders 1.

[0024] In an optional embodiment, the metal filter element 4 is composed of a frame 11, a sealed end cap 12 and an open end cap 13. The sealed end cap 12 and the open end cap 13 are respectively connected to the two ends of the frame 11, and one end of the open end cap 13 is connected to the cylinder 1.

[0025] In an optional embodiment, the metal filter element 4 is provided with a spiral blade 14 connected to the sealing end cap 12;

[0026] The cleaning assembly is connected to the metal filter element 4. The cleaning assembly includes guide rods 5, sliding seats 6, cleaning scraper rings 7, and guide vanes 8. Multiple guide rods 5 are circumferentially distributed around the central axis of the metal filter element 4. Multiple sliding seats 6 are slidably connected to the guide rods 5. The cleaning scraper ring 7 is sleeved on the metal filter element 4 and connected to the sliding seats 6. Multiple guide vanes 8 are respectively connected to the cleaning scraper ring 7. The guide vanes 8 consist of forward vanes 9 and reverse vanes 10. The forward vanes 9 are installed at an angle to guide the fluid to flow forward along the axial direction of the metal filter element 4, and the reverse vanes 10 are installed at an angle to guide the fluid to flow backward along the axial direction of the metal filter element 4. When the cleaning assembly is in use, the water flow pushes the guide vanes 8 and the cleaning scraper ring 7, causing the sliding seats 6 to move linearly along the guide rods 5. The cleaning scraper ring 7 contacts the metal filter element 4 to assist in its cleaning.

[0027] Example 2

[0028] like Figures 2-5 As shown, the present invention proposes a backwashable dual-switch filter. Compared with Embodiment 1, this embodiment describes the detailed structure of the cleaning component. The cleaning component also includes a fixing plate 15. Two fixing plates 15 are symmetrically arranged. The fixing plates 15 are connected to the sealing end cover 12 and the open end cover 13. The opposing side of the fixing plates 15 is connected to the guide rod 5.

[0029] In an optional embodiment, the sliding seat 6 consists of a sliding block 16 and an annular scraper 17. Two parallel annular scrapers 17 are respectively connected to the two ends of the sliding block 16, and the sliding block 16 is slidably connected to the guide rod 5.

[0030] In one optional embodiment, the mounting angle of the forward-facing wing plate 9 is 30°, and the mounting angle of the reverse-facing wing plate 10 is 45°; the different angles result in different movement speeds when impacted by water flow.

[0031] In an optional embodiment, the cleaning scraper ring 7 consists of a fixed ring body 18 and scraper teeth 19. The fixed ring body 18 is connected to the sliding seat 6, and a plurality of cleaning scraper teeth 19 are connected to the fixed ring body 18. The cleaning scraper teeth 19 are made of stainless steel and fluororubber. Fluororubber can prevent metal scraping from causing damage to the surface of the metal filter element 4.

[0032] In summary, when this utility model is in use, water flows into a cylinder 1 through the three-way ball valve 3 at the bottom. Wastewater enters the metal filter element 4 from the outside through its surface mesh, and then gradually enters the connecting pipe 2 through the open end cap 13 at the top, and is discharged through the three-way ball valve 3 at the top. At this time, the water flow will push the forward wing plate 9 to position the cleaning scraper ring 7 on top of the metal filter element 4. When reverse flushing is required, the three-way ball valve 3 is adjusted to close the inlet and outlet of the current cylinder 1, allowing the other cylinder 1 to operate normally for purification. Inside the cylinder 1 that needs cleaning, water enters from a pipe on one side of the cylinder 1 and flows from top to bottom, in the opposite direction to the purification flow. The water flow pushes the reverse blades 10 on the cleaning scraper ring 7, thereby causing the sliding seat 6 to move along the guide rod 5. The scraper teeth 19 contact the metal filter element 4 to clean it. At the same time, water is sprayed out from the mesh on the metal filter element 4 to clean and prevent clogging. The spiral blades 14 can convert the liquid from axial flow to high-speed swirling flow to enhance the cleaning effect. Impurities and sewage can be discharged from the drain pipe.

[0033] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
