[0026] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this utility model provides a filtration system, including a raw water storage tank 10 and an integrated pre-filtration tower 20. A sand filter module 30 is detachably installed on the upper part of the integrated pre-filtration tower 20. A carbon filter module 40 and a resin filter module 50 are sequentially connected inside the integrated pre-filtration tower 20 and below the sand filter module 30. A three-way switching valve 11 is connected to the output end of the raw water storage tank 10. The two output ends of the three-way switching valve 11 are respectively connected to the input ends of the sand filter module 30 and the carbon filter module 40. A reverse osmosis filter module 60 is connected to the output end of the resin filter module 50. A pure water storage tank 70 is connected to the output end of the reverse osmosis filter module 60. The three-way switching valve 11 is used to control the filtration path of the raw water, that is, to control the raw water to enter the integrated pre-filtration tower 20 from the sand filter module 30 or the carbon filter module 40. When the sand filter module 30 needs to be maintained, the water path can be switched directly to the carbon filter module 40 for filtration without stopping the machine, so as to avoid affecting the supply of chemical water. In addition, it is also possible to select whether to pass through the sand filter module 30 according to the water quality. The three-way switching valve 11 can be a manual or electric switching valve. Its specific structure can be referred to the prior art, and will not be described in detail in this application.
[0027] See Figure 2 In a specific embodiment of this application, the integrated pre-filtration tower 20 is internally provided with an upper partition 21 and a lower partition 22, which divide the interior of the integrated pre-filtration tower 20 into an upper sand filter zone 23, a middle carbon filter zone 24, and a lower resin filter zone 25. The sand filter module 30 is detachably installed in the upper sand filter zone 23, the carbon filter module 40 is installed in the middle carbon filter zone 24, and the resin filter module 50 is detachably installed in the lower resin filter zone 25. The two output ends of the three-way switching valve 11 are respectively connected to the upper sand filter zone 23 and the middle carbon filter zone 24. The integrated pre-filtration tower 20 has a vertical three-layer structure, with the interior of the tower body divided into three areas by the upper partition 21 and the lower partition 22, from top to bottom: the sand filter module 30, the carbon filter module 40, and the resin filter module 50. Of course, in situations where space is limited, the integrated pre-filtration tower 20 can also be arranged horizontally.
[0028] See further Figure 3The sand filter module 30 includes a PP cotton filter element 31. A limiting ring 26 is provided on the upper partition 21, and the PP cotton filter element 31 is movably inserted into the limiting ring 26. The top of the integrated pre-filtration tower 20 is provided with an upper end cap 27 capable of sealing the opening of the upper sand filter zone 23. A lower flange is provided on the outer periphery of the top of the integrated pre-filtration tower 20, and an upper flange capable of cooperating with the lower flange is provided on the outer periphery of the upper end cap 27. The upper and lower flanges are connected by bolts. The bottom of the PP cotton filter element 31 is inserted and fixed within the limiting ring 26. The upper end cap 27 can be opened for replacement of the PP cotton filter element 31, and a lifting handle can be provided on the top of the PP cotton filter element 31 for easy extraction and removal of the entire element.
[0029] Specifically, the PP cotton filter element 31 includes a filter screen cylinder 32 that can be inserted into the limiting ring 26. A water inlet channel is formed between the inner wall of the upper sand filter zone 23 and the outer wall of the filter screen cylinder 32. One of the output ends of the three-way switching valve 11 is connected to the water inlet channel through the full-length pipe 12. Both ends of the filter screen cylinder 32 are provided with caps 33. The filter screen cylinder 32 is provided with a PP cotton core 34 inside. A central water outlet cavity 35 is opened axially inside the PP cotton core 34. The upper partition plate 21 is provided with a sand filter outlet pipe 36 that connects to the liquid outlet end of the central water outlet cavity 35. The output end of the sand filter outlet pipe 36 is connected to the carbon filter module 40. In this system, raw water enters through the inlet channel. The filter cylinder 32 can be made of stainless steel and is used to filter large-diameter particles in the raw water. Its pore size can be set according to actual needs. The PP cotton core 34 is filled inside the filter cylinder 32. The central outlet cavity 35 is connected to the internal channel of the core, which means that the filtration method of "outer inlet and inner outlet" is adopted. The raw water enters from the outside of the filter cylinder 32, is filtered by the PP cotton, and is discharged from the central outlet cavity 35. Compared with the traditional structure, the filtration area is increased.
[0030] Figure 4In a specific embodiment of this application, the carbon filter module 40 includes a central tube 41 disposed in the middle carbon filter zone 24. The upper end of the central tube 41 is connected to the lower end of the sand filter outlet pipe 36. The wall of the sand filter outlet pipe 36 is provided with a plurality of water outlet holes 37. The outer wall of the central tube 41 is provided with a spiral guide groove 42 along the axial direction. The interior of the spiral guide groove 42 is filled with activated carbon 43. The bottom of the output end of the spiral guide groove 42 is provided with a water outlet mesh 44. The lower partition plate 22 is provided with a water collection tank 28. The bottom of the water collection tank 28 is provided with a plurality of water distribution holes 29 that connect to the input end of the resin filter module 50. The water, after being filtered through PP cotton, is ejected from several outlet holes 37 on the wall of the sand filter outlet pipe 36 and falls into the top of the spiral guide channel 42. After being filtered by activated carbon, it is finally discharged from the outlet mesh 44 at the bottom. By setting up a spiral guide activated carbon filter structure, the water flow can be guided to flow downwards in a spiral to increase the filtration time and enhance the filtration effect. The filling height of the activated carbon 43 can occupy 80% of the depth of the channel. The design of the water collection tank 28 and several water distribution holes 29 ensures that the filtered water can be evenly distributed into the resin filter module 50.
[0031] Furthermore, if maintenance or replacement of the sand filter module 30 is required, a water flow path is provided. The integrated pre-filtration tower 20 is located at the top of the medium carbon filter zone 24 and is provided with an inlet pipe 45 that connects to the input end of the spiral guide channel 42. The other output end of the three-way switching valve 11 is connected to the input end of the inlet pipe 45 through the half-pass pipe 13, and the raw water directly enters the top of the spiral guide channel 42 through the inlet pipe 45.
[0032] See Figure 5 In a specific embodiment of this application, the resin filter module 50 includes a filter box 51 that is uniformly connected to the outlet ends of several of the water distribution holes 29. The filter box 51 is filled with a resin layer 52. The bottom of the integrated pre-filtration tower 20 is provided with a pre-filtration outlet pipe 14. The bottom of the filter box 51 is provided with several resin outlet holes 53 that are uniformly connected to the pre-filtration outlet pipe 14.

By opening the opening and closing door, the filter box 51 can be taken out and the resin layer 52 can be replaced. The integrated pre-filtration tower 20 can adopt a square tower body or a circular tower body. Specifically, it can refer to the existing circular storage cabinet drawer to realize the pull-out function.
[0033] See Figure 1The reverse osmosis filtration module 60 includes a primary RO unit 61 and a secondary RO unit 62. The output end of the pre-filtered water outlet pipe 14 is connected to the inlet end of the primary RO unit 61, the freshwater outlet end of the primary RO unit 61 is connected to the inlet end of the secondary RO unit 62, and the freshwater outlet end of the secondary RO unit 62 is connected to the pure water storage tank 70. The specific structures of the primary RO unit 61 and the secondary RO unit 62 can be referred to the prior art, and will not be described in detail in this application.
[0034] Furthermore, the system also includes a backwashing module 80, which comprises a cleaning tank 81 and a cleaning water pump 82. The inlet of the cleaning tank is connected to the freshwater outlet of both the primary RO unit 61 and the secondary RO unit 62. The inlet of the cleaning water pump 82 is connected to the outlet of the cleaning tank 81, and the outlet of the cleaning water pump 82 is connected to the inlet of both the primary RO unit 61 and the secondary RO unit 62. The cleaning tank 81 stores the cleaning solution, which is typically treated pure water. Specific cleaning agents can also be added as needed to enhance the cleaning effect. The cleaning water pump 82 extracts the cleaning solution from the cleaning tank 81 and delivers it to the reverse osmosis filtration module 60 at a certain pressure.
[0035] This utility model discloses a filtration system that integrates PP cotton filtration, activated carbon filtration, and resin filtration modules into a single, compact pre-filtration tower 10. This significantly reduces the equipment's footprint, and the combined filtration effectively removes particulate impurities, odors, and harmful substances from the water. The water quality is further improved by a reverse osmosis filtration module 60. Furthermore, both the sand filter module and the resin filter module are detachable for easy maintenance. When replacing the PP cotton filter, the filtration path can be changed via a three-way switching valve 11, allowing the water to temporarily flow directly to the carbon filter module without requiring system shutdown, thus improving the system's adaptability and stability.
