Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of domestic water supply filtration equipment, specifically an automatic filter media reduction device for domestic water supply. Background Technology

[0002] In domestic water supply systems, filter media filtration is a crucial step in ensuring water quality. Commonly used filter media include activated carbon, ion exchange resins, zeolite, and other adsorption materials. These filter media can effectively remove impurities, odors, heavy metal ions, and other harmful substances from the water through physical adsorption or chemical exchange, thereby providing residents with drinking water that meets standards. During long-term use, filter media will gradually reach saturation due to continuous interception and adsorption of various impurities in the water, and its filtration efficiency will decrease significantly. At this time, it is necessary to replace the filter media to maintain the normal filtration function of the water supply system.

[0003] Traditional filter media replacement methods mainly rely on manual operation. Manual replacement of filter media is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, increasing labor costs, but also prone to leakage of residual water during the replacement process, resulting in water waste. To address this, we propose an automatic filter media reduction device for domestic water supply. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic filter media reduction device for domestic water supply, to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the time-consuming and labor-intensive nature of manual filter media replacement, which increases labor costs, and the easy leakage of residual water in the filter media during replacement. To achieve the above objective, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic filter media reduction device for domestic water supply, including a support frame;

[0005] The filter media assembly includes a storage box fixedly connected to the top of a support frame. Mounting slots are provided on opposite sides of the storage box. An air pump is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame. The pump's extraction end is fixedly connected to the interior of one of the mounting slots, and a suction pipe is fixedly connected to the interior of the other mounting slot. A filter plate is fixedly connected inside the storage box. A ventilation slot is provided on the front of the filter plate. After prolonged use, the filter media will gradually become saturated due to the long-term interception of impurities in the water. At this point, the suction pipe is closed. At the same time, the air pump starts, allowing it to draw air from inside the storage box through the installation slot and ventilation slot. This creates a strong suction inside the storage box, which then draws water and filter material from inside the filter canister through the extraction pipe. The filter material is then drawn into the storage box. Through the cooperation of various components, the filter material is automatically reduced, collected, and added automatically, eliminating the need for manual replacement. This saves manpower and time, and minimizes the impact on the water supply during replacement, ensuring the continuity and stability of the domestic water supply.

[0006] The material discharge assembly includes a limiting groove, which is opened on one side of the storage box, and a sealing plate is movably connected inside the limiting groove.

[0007] In a further preferred embodiment, the discharge assembly also includes a baffle plate, which is fixedly connected to the side with the sealing plate. An electric push rod is fixedly connected to the top of the storage box, and the pushing end of one side of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the other side of the sealing plate. The device can promptly remove saturated filter media and replenish new filter media, avoiding the situation where saturated filter media affects the filtration effect. This ensures that the filter canister is always kept in a highly efficient filtration state, ensuring that the effluent water quality is stable and meets the standards, and providing residents with safe and reliable domestic water.

[0008] More preferably, the bottom of the support frame one is provided with a discharge port, and the bottom of the support frame one is fixedly connected with a guide frame one, which is located at the bottom of the discharge port.

[0009] More preferably, a support plate is fixedly connected to the back of the support frame, a mounting base is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate, and a storage component is provided on the top of the mounting base.

[0010] More preferably, the storage component includes a storage bucket, which is disposed on the top of the mounting base. The bottom of the storage bucket has a drain outlet, and a drain pipe is fixedly connected inside the drain outlet. A filter screen is fixedly connected inside the drain pipe, which reduces water waste, conforms to the concept of energy conservation and environmental protection, and reduces the overall water consumption of the water supply system.

[0011] More preferably, a support leg is fixedly connected to the outside of the storage bucket, a caster wheel is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support leg, the bottom of the caster wheel is movably connected to the top of the mounting base, and an adjustment component is provided on the front of the support plate.

[0012] More preferably, the adjustment component includes a second support frame, a second guide frame is fixedly connected inside the second support frame, and a solenoid valve is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second guide frame. The electric push rod controls the movement of the sealing plate and the solenoid valve controls the amount of new filter media added, both with high precision. This can effectively avoid excessive loss of filter media during extraction and discharge, while ensuring that the amount of new filter media added is just right, thus ensuring the filtration effect, avoiding filter media waste, and reducing the cost of using filter media.

[0013] More preferably, the top of the mounting base is movably connected to a second support leg, the top of the second support leg is fixedly connected to a filter bucket, the interior of the filter bucket is movably connected to the interior of the suction pipe, the interior of the filter bucket is provided with a water inlet pipe, and the interior of the filter bucket is provided with a water suction pipe.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] In this invention, after prolonged use, the filter material gradually becomes saturated due to the long-term interception of impurities in the water. At this point, the water pump is closed, and the air pump is activated. The air pump draws air from inside the storage box through the mounting slot and the ventilation slot, creating a strong suction inside the storage box. This allows the storage box to draw water from inside the filter canister along with the filter material through the extraction pipe, thus drawing the filter material into the storage box. Through the cooperation of various components, the automatic reduction and collection of filter material, as well as the automatic addition of new filter material, are achieved without manual replacement, saving manpower and time. Furthermore, the replacement process minimizes the impact on the water supply, ensuring the continuity and stability of the domestic water supply.

[0016] In this invention, the water source can be transported to the inside of the storage tank along with the filter material through the discharge port and the guide frame. Through the filter screen inside the storage tank, the water source drawn out along with the filter material can be separated from the filter material. The separated water source can be discharged through the drain pipe and recycled, reducing water waste, conforming to the concept of energy conservation and environmental protection, and reducing the overall water consumption of the water supply system.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic filter media reduction device for domestic water supply, including a support frame 1;

[0026] The filter media assembly 2 includes a storage box 201, which is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1. Installation slots 202 are respectively opened on opposite sides of the storage box 201. An air pump 203 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1. The extraction end of the air pump 203 is fixedly connected to the interior of one of the installation slots 202, and a material extraction pipe 204 is fixedly connected to the interior of the other installation slot 202. A filter plate 205 is fixedly connected inside the storage box 201. A ventilation slot 206 is opened on the front of the filter plate 205. When the air pump 203 is activated, it can extract air from inside the storage box 201 through the installation slots 202 and the ventilation slots 206, generating a strong suction force inside the storage box 201. This allows the storage box 201 to extract the water-based co-filtering material inside the filter canister 705 through the material extraction pipe 204, thus drawing the filter material into the storage box 201.

[0027] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the discharge assembly 3 includes a limiting groove 301, which is located on one side of the storage box 201. A sealing plate 302 is movably connected inside the limiting groove 301. The discharge assembly 3 also includes a baffle 303, which is fixedly connected to the side with the sealing plate 302. An electric push rod 304 is fixedly connected to the top of the storage box 201. The pushing end of one side of the electric push rod 304 is fixedly connected to the other side of the sealing plate 302. A discharge port 305 is provided at the bottom of the support frame 1. A guide frame 306 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame 1. The guide frame 306 is located at the bottom of the discharge port 305. When the electric push rod 304 is activated, it can push the baffle 303 to move to the left, which in turn moves the sealing plate 302 to the left. This allows the sealing plate 302 to release the seal on the discharge port 305, so that the water source can work with the filter material to be transported through the discharge port 305 and the guide frame 306 to the inside of the collection tank 601.

[0028] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a support plate 4 is fixedly connected to the back of the support frame 1, and a mounting base 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 4. A storage component 6 is provided on the top of the mounting base 5. The storage component 6 includes a storage bucket 601, which is located on the top of the mounting base 5. A drain outlet 602 is provided at the bottom of the storage bucket 601. A drain pipe 603 is fixedly connected inside the drain outlet 602. A filter screen 604 is fixedly connected inside the drain pipe 603. A support leg 605 is fixedly connected to the outside of the storage bucket 601. A caster wheel 606 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support leg 605. The bottom of the caster wheel 606 is movably connected to the top of the mounting base 5. An adjustment component 7 is provided on the front of the support plate 4. The filter screen 604 inside the storage bucket 601 allows it to filter the filter material, so that the water source can be discharged to the outside through the drain pipe 603 for recycling.

[0029] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the adjustment component 7 includes a second support frame 701, a second guide frame 702 is fixedly connected inside the second support frame 701, and a solenoid valve 703 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second guide frame 702. When the solenoid valve 703 is activated, it can release the sealing work of the second guide frame 702, so that the second guide frame 702 can transfer new sealing material into the filter barrel 705 for filtration.

[0030] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a second support leg 704 is movably connected to the top of the mounting base 5, and a filter bucket 705 is fixedly connected to the top of the second support leg 704. The interior of the filter bucket 705 is movably connected to the interior of the extraction pipe 204. An inlet pipe 8 and an extraction pipe 9 are installed inside the filter bucket 705. When using this device, the operator can first transfer unfiltered water to the filter bucket 705 through the inlet pipe 8, so that the filter media inside the filter bucket 705 can filter the water, such as activated carbon, ion exchange resin, zeolite and other adsorption materials. Then, the filtered water can be extracted from the interior of the filter bucket 705 for use through the installed extraction pipe 9.

[0031] The method of use and advantages of this utility model: The automatic filter media reduction device for domestic water supply operates as follows:

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, when using this device, the operator first transmits unfiltered water to the filter bucket 705 through the inlet pipe 8, allowing the filter media inside the filter bucket 705 to filter the water, such as activated carbon, ion exchange resin, zeolite, and other adsorption materials. Then, the filtered water can be extracted from the filter bucket 705 through the installed pump pipe 9. After prolonged use, the filter media will gradually become saturated due to the long-term interception of impurities in the water. At this time, the pump pipe 9 is closed, and the air pump 203 is started. The air pump 203 draws air from the storage box 201 through the mounting slot 202 and the ventilation slot 206, creating a strong suction inside the storage box 201. This allows the storage box 201 to draw water from the filter bucket 705 along with the filter media through the extraction pipe 204, drawing the filter media into the storage box 201. Then, the electric push rod 304 is activated, pushing the baffle 303 to the left, causing the baffle 303 to... 03 can move the sealing plate 302 to the left, allowing the sealing plate 302 to release the seal on the discharge port 305. This allows the water source and filter material to be transported through the discharge port 305 and the guide frame 306 to the inside of the collection bucket 601. At the same time, the suction pipe 204 can form a siphon effect, allowing the suction pipe 204 to continuously transport the water source and filter material inside the filter bucket 705. Then, the filter screen 604 inside the collection bucket 601 can filter the filter material, allowing the water source to be discharged to the outside through the drain pipe 603 for recycling. Then, when the filter material inside the filter bucket 705 is completely extracted, the solenoid valve 703 is activated, allowing the solenoid valve 703 to release the seal on the guide frame 702. This allows the guide frame 702 to transport new sealing material into the inside of the filter bucket 705 for filtration. At this time, the water suction pipe 9 is activated again, allowing the water suction pipe 9 to continuously extract the filtered water source.

[0033] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model.
