Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air filter technology, and in particular to a snap-fit ​​type high-sealing air filter. Background Technology

[0002] In modern industry and transportation, air filters are crucial components that ensure the stable operation of engines and other equipment. Their importance is self-evident. Whether it is automobiles, construction machinery, or various industrial machinery and equipment, they all rely on air filters to filter the air entering the equipment, remove dust, particles and other impurities, and prevent these substances from causing wear and damage to the precision components inside the equipment. As the performance requirements of equipment continue to increase, higher standards are being set for the filtration effect, sealing performance and ease of maintenance of air filters, prompting the continuous development and innovation of related technologies.

[0003] Currently, most air filters on the market use bolts or simple snap-fit ​​connections to fix the filter housing and top cover in terms of structural design, and use rubber sealing rings to achieve sealing. In terms of filter element installation, they are generally fixed by using slot limiting or direct placement. The technical principle is mainly to use physical obstruction so that when air passes through the filter element, impurities are intercepted on the surface of the filter element, while clean air enters the equipment.

[0004] However, traditional air filters have defects in sealing and installation. Due to unreasonable connection structure, bolt connection is cumbersome to disassemble and assemble, consuming a lot of time and manpower. Simple snap-fit ​​connection can loosen, leading to decreased sealing performance, air leakage, and affecting filtration effect. At the same time, the filter element installation method is not stable enough, with problems such as difficult installation and easy displacement. This not only reduces the maintenance efficiency of the filter, but also allows unfiltered air to enter the equipment due to poor sealing and loose installation, accelerating equipment wear, shortening equipment lifespan, increasing maintenance costs and equipment failure risk. Therefore, a snap-fit ​​high-sealing air filter is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

After the locking pin 17 disengages from the hole inside the sealing cover 2, the operator can then remove the sealing cover 2 and put the air filter plate 6 into the air filter box 1. Then, the sealing cover 2 is placed on top of the air filter box 1, so that the fixing block 13 is inserted into the sliding groove 18 on both sides of the sealing cover 2. Then, the linkage block 16 is released, and the locking pin 17 is pushed by the return spring 14 to re-insert into the hole inside the sealing cover 2, thus completing the sealing of the air filter box 1 and the sealing cover 2, thereby achieving the effect of high-efficiency sealing of the air filter.

[0039] When installing the air filter plate 6, the worker holds the handle 9 and aligns the positioning posts 8 at the four corners of the bottom of the air filter plate 6 with the holes inside the air filter box 1 and inserts them. During the insertion process, the outer wall of the positioning post 8 first presses against the limiting clip 11, causing the limiting clip 11 to retract inward, which compresses the limiting spring 10. When the positioning post 8 is fully inserted, the limiting spring 10 pushes the limiting clip 11 back into the positioning hole 12 on the outer wall of the positioning post 8, thus completing the limiting of the positioning post 8, and thus limiting the air filter plate 6 as well, thereby achieving the effect of quickly installing the air filter plate 6.
