Hinged Filter Basket Cover Assembly for Pollution-Free Cleaning
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing water surface cleaning devices face issues with inconvenient dismounting of filter baskets, leading to potential environmental pollution from scattered garbage during cleaning.
Innovation Solution
A basket type filter assembly with a hinged cover that is clamped to the filter basket, allowing the cover to be taken out together, thereby preventing garbage from scattering and ensuring environmental protection.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the filter basket is dismounted by opening the upper cover, then the filter basket can be removed for cleaning, but the garbage inside the filter basket may scatter and cause environmental pollution
Solution Approach 1:
The cover and filter basket are hinged together to form a combined assembly. When the filter basket is removed from the water surface cleaning device, the cover is automatically removed as well, ensuring the garbage inside remains contained and cannot scatter into the environment.
Solution Approach 2:
The filter basket is nested within the cover structure, with the cover forming an outer shell that encloses the filter basket. This nested configuration ensures that when the assembly is removed, the cover continues to enclose and contain the garbage.
2Ease of operation
If the upper cover is turned over at a large angle or directly dismounted, then the filter basket can be accessed, but the structure becomes complex and operation becomes inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The cover is divided into a hinge portion that connects to the filter basket and a clamping portion that interfaces with the water surface cleaning device. This segmentation allows the cover to be hinged to the filter basket while still being removable from the device through a simple clamping mechanism.
Solution Approach 2:
The cover is designed with a hinge joint that allows it to rotate relative to the filter basket. This dynamic connection enables the cover to move from a closed position during operation to an open or removed position during cleaning, providing flexibility without adding complex mechanisms.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The solution facilitates easy and pollution-free cleaning by maintaining the cover over the filter basket during removal, effectively containing garbage and preventing environmental contamination.
Implementation Method 1
The hinge portion is hinged with one side of the cover. An other side of the cover is configured for being clamped with a buckle, and the other side of the cover is pressed against the clamping portion.

AI summary
A basket type filter assembly is provided, which belongs to the technical field of water surface cleaning devices. The basket type filter assembly includes a filter basket, and a cover. The filter basket is provided with a hinge portion on a side and a clamping portion on an opposite side. The hinge portion is hinged with one side of the cover, the other side of the cover is configured for being clamped with a buckle, and the other side of the cover is pressed against the clamping portion. The cover is hinged with the filter basket, the filter basket is clamped to the cover by the buckle, and the cover is pressed against the filter basket, such that the filter basket and the cover can be fixed at the same time. The cover can be taken out together when the filter basket is taken out, and the cover is kept to cover the filter basket, such that the garbage in the filter basket can be prevented from scattering in the filter basket cleaning process, and environmental pollution is avoided.
