[0035] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This application provides a filtration device 100 applied to a baby bottle washing machine 10. The baby bottle washing machine 10 includes a water tank 200 and a washing chamber 300. The filtration device 100 has an inlet 110 communicating with the water tank 200 and an outlet 120 communicating with the washing chamber 300. The filtration device 100 has a first filter chamber 130 and a second filter chamber 140 that are interconnected. The interconnected first filter chamber 130 and second filter chamber 140 within the filtration device 100 enable staged filtration, improving the filtration effect on the passing washing water. Furthermore, the overall structure is simple and easy to disassemble and replace. It is understood that the filtration device 100 can also be applied to other cleaning equipment, such as equipment for cleaning children's tableware and cups, to filter washing water and remove scale.

[0036] In some possible implementations, the inlet 110 and outlet 120 are located at the same end of the filter device 100, and the ends of the first filter chamber 130 and the second filter chamber 140 furthest from the inlet 110 and outlet 120 are interconnected. After entering the first filter chamber 130 from the inlet 110, the water flows through the entire length of the filter chamber to the distal connection point, then enters the second filter chamber 140 and flows in the opposite direction to the outlet 120. This extends the residence time and contact path of the water in the filter material, improving the adequacy of the staged filtration and ensuring that large particles and fine pollutants are intercepted layer by layer. Simultaneously, the layout of inlet and outlet at the same end, combined with the distal connection design, makes the water pressure distribution more uniform, avoids local dead zones and accumulation of dirt, reduces the risk of clogging, simplifies external pipeline connections, and improves structural compactness and ease of installation.

[0037] In some possible implementations, filter screens 150 are respectively provided between the inlet 110 and the first filter chamber 130, and between the outlet 120 and the second filter chamber 140. The filter screens 150 can intercept large particles of impurities and play a role in equalizing the water flow, reducing the turbulence caused by water flow impact, and enhancing stability.

[0038] In some possible implementations, both the inlet 110 and the outlet 120 are located at the bottom of the filter device 100. Bottom water inlet can use the impact of water flow to re-raise any small amount of impurities that may have settled at the bottom of the filter chamber, allowing them to enter the filtration process with the water flow, thus preventing impurities from accumulating at the bottom and causing localized blockages. Bottom water outlet reduces water stagnation at the top of the filter chamber, decreasing the probability of impurities adhering to the top structure due to the slowed water flow, and extending the overall cleaning cycle of the filter structure. The bottom inlet and outlet layout reduces the complexity of the connection piping between the filter device 100 and the water tank 200, simplifies the sealing design, and reduces the risk of leakage.

[0039] In some possible implementations, the first filter chamber 130 and the second filter chamber 140 are separated by a partition 160 arranged along the height of the cylindrical body of the filter device 100, with the top of the partition 160 positioned below the top of the cylindrical body. This design, where the top of the partition 160 is lower than the top of the cylindrical body, guides the water flow from the bottom of the first filter chamber 130, overflowing at the top into the second filter chamber 140, and then flowing downwards to the outlet 120. This extends the flow distance and filtration time between the two filter chambers, ensuring sufficient contact between the water and the filter material and improving filtration efficiency. Simultaneously, this structure eliminates the need for complex connecting pipes, simplifying the internal design, reducing the risk of leakage, and utilizing the liquid level difference to create a stable water flow, preventing turbulence from affecting the filtration effect.

[0040] In some possible implementations, the filter device 100 has a housing 170 fixedly connected to the bottle washing machine 10. The housing 170 has an inlet pipe 171 communicating with the inlet 110 and an outlet pipe 172 communicating with the outlet 120. The housing 170 is used to protect the internal structure of the filter device 100.

[0041] In some possible implementations, a check valve 180 is provided between the inlet 110 and the inlet pipe 171, and between the outlet 120 and the outlet pipe 172. The check valve 180 can seal the filter device 100 when the bottle washing machine 10 stops water intake, preventing leakage or backflow of washing water.

[0042] In some possible implementations, the check valve 180 is a silicone valve with a cross-shaped notch. The water pressure when the washing water flows can open the cross-shaped notch, and it automatically closes when the flow stops, thus achieving automatic opening and closing.

[0043] In some possible implementations, the inlet pipe 171 and the outlet pipe 172 are provided with cross posts 177 with a differential cross-shaped cut to improve the sealing performance of the check valve 180, while the cross posts 177 can also serve as a flow guide.

[0044] In some possible implementations, the top of the housing 170 is provided with a mounting platform 173 that is fixedly connected to the bottle washer 10. The mounting platform 173 is provided with mounting posts 174 arranged along the height direction, and the bottom of the mounting posts 174 is fixedly connected to the base of the bottle washer 10 to improve stability.

[0045] In some possible implementations, the filter device 100 is provided with a top cover 190, and a mounting base 175 for mounting the top cover 190 is provided above the mounting platform 173. The top cover 190 is used to protect the filter device 100 and prevent foreign objects from entering from above. The mounting base 175 and the top cover 190 can be connected by threads for easy assembly and disassembly.

[0046] In some possible implementations, a rotating gate 176 is provided above the mounting platform 173.

[0047] This application embodiment also provides a baby bottle washing machine 10, which includes the filter device 100 in any of the above embodiments. The baby bottle washing machine 10 also includes a water tank 200 and a washing chamber 300. The filter device 100 and the water tank 200 are arranged side by side on one side of the washing chamber 300, which makes the structure compact and reduces the space occupied.
