AI Technical Summary
The existing automotive filter's upper housing and connector are of an integral structure, which is easily damaged during transportation and assembly welding, resulting in material waste and increased costs. At the same time, the upper and lower housings are not strong enough, affecting their service life.
The upper shell and connector adopt a split design, combined with internal and external threaded connections and reinforcing rib structure to enhance the shell's damage resistance and strength, and improve sealing performance through sealing rings. The inner wall of the lower shell is designed with a smooth surface to facilitate core pulling from the mold.
This facilitates the replacement of damaged parts, reduces defect rates and production costs, and improves the service life and sealing performance of filters.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to filtration systems, and more specifically to a filter for use in automobiles. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, automotive filters typically consist of an upper housing, connector, filter element assembly, and lower housing. The upper housing and connector are formed as a single, complex outer cap. Damage during transportation, assembly, and welding can render the entire outer cap unusable, resulting in significant material waste and increased costs. Furthermore, the smooth outer surfaces of the upper and lower housings are not very strong and are prone to breakage, making them unsuitable for long-term use. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and provide a replaceable split-type filter with a split design that facilitates component replacement.
[0004] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution: a replaceable split-type filter, comprising an upper housing, a connector, a filter element assembly, and a lower housing, wherein the upper housing and the connector are split structures, and the outer surface of the lower housing is provided with a lower reinforcing rib and its inner wall is a smooth surface.
[0005] The upper housing has internal threads, and the connector has external threads, forming an internal-external thread connection. A connector sealing ring is installed at the inner port between the upper housing and the connector. The upper outer surface of the upper housing, and above the oil inlet, has several upper reinforcing ribs. The middle outer surface of the upper housing, and below the oil inlet, has evenly distributed multi-layered annular structures. The lower outer surface of the upper housing and the upper outer surface of the lower housing both have groove structures for positioning during the rotational welding of the upper and lower housings.
[0006] By adopting the technical solution of this invention, the split structure design of the upper shell and the connector allows for targeted replacement of defective products such as the connector or upper shell even if damage occurs during transportation, assembly, or welding. This provides strong substitutability and interchangeability. The upper and lower reinforcing ribs increase the strength and damage resistance of the upper and lower shells respectively, and the smooth inner wall of the lower shell facilitates core extraction during production. This reduces the defect rate and production cost of the filter products, and it can be widely used for filtering fuel oil, lubricating oil, and hydraulic oil. Attached Figure Description
[0007] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the external structure of the replaceable split filter of the present invention.
[0008] Figure 2 for Figure 1 A cross-sectional structural diagram.
[0009] Figure 3 for Figure 1 A vertical three-dimensional view. Detailed Implementation
[0010] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0011] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the present invention relates to a replaceable split-type filter for automotive filters (not limited to fuel filters and oil filters), comprising an upper housing 3, a connector 1, a filter element assembly 4, and a lower housing 5. The upper housing 3 and the connector 1 are split structures. The outer surface of the lower housing 5 is provided with several lower reinforcing ribs 6, and its inner wall is a smooth surface (which facilitates core extraction during the production process and reduces the defect rate during production).
[0012] The upper housing 3 has an internal thread, and the connector 1 has an external thread, and the two are connected by internal and external threads. A connector sealing ring 2 is installed at the inner port between the upper housing 3 and the connector 1 (located slightly above the point where the internal and external threads connect). Figure 2 As shown), to increase its sealing performance. The upper outer surface of the upper housing 3, and above the upper housing oil inlet 11, has several upper reinforcing ribs 7 (eight in total), increasing the mechanical strength of the upper housing. The middle outer surface of the upper housing 1, and below the upper housing oil inlet, has a uniformly distributed multi-layered annular structure 8 (a ring with multiple layers evenly distributed on the upper and lower sides), increasing the total area of the upper housing oil inlet and reducing the oil flow resistance. The lower outer surface of the upper housing 3 and the upper outer surface of the lower housing 5 both have groove structures 9 for positioning the upper and lower housings during rotary welding, and reducing the cost of plastic molding and rotary welding fixture processing. The interior of the connector 1, and the point where it communicates with the central tube of the filter element assembly 4, serves as the connector oil outlet 10 (one). The upper part of the upper housing 3, near the upper reinforcing ribs (i.e., below the upper reinforcing ribs 7), has several upper housing oil inlets 11. These upper reinforcing ribs can be arranged alternately with the upper housing oil inlets (e.g., at intervals). Figure 3 (As shown).
