Disassembly-and-washing-free durable ceramic filter element water purifier

The invention discloses a disassembly-and-washing-free durable ceramic filter element water purifier which comprises a base 23, a ceramic filter element 1 and a non-magnetizer shell cylinder 3. The technical scheme is that a washing component is arranged in the shell cylinder 3 and is in mechanical linkage with an inner magnetic ring 2 which can slide along the shell cylinder 3, an outer magnetic ring 4 capable of sliding is sleeved outside the shell cylinder 3, and the two magnetic rings are separated by the cylinder wall and mutually absorbed. The outer magnetic ring 4 is pushed and rotated by hand, the inner magnetic ring 2 can be moved simultaneously and drives the washing component to wash the ceramic filter element 1, and sewage is discharged through a blowdown valve 24. Due to the fact that when the ceramic filter element 1 of the water purifier is washed, the outer cylinder 3 does not need to be disassembled, not only is operation convenient and fast, but also component damage possibly caused in the frequent washing and disassembling process is avoided, moreover, wearing strength imposed on the ceramic filter element by the washing component is reduced to the maximum, and active carbon which is inactive after a long time can be conveniently replaced, and therefore the service life of the water purifier can be greatly prolonged.

Vehicle sobriety interlock device

An interlock device for measuring the sobriety of a potential vehicle operator is coupled to the starting mechanism of the vehicle. The interlock device includes a microprocessor controlled handset and base unit. The base unit encloses relays to preclude the starting mechanism from engaging if a predetermined acceptable threshold level of blood alcohol content has been exceeded. The relays receive a signal, through the base unit microprocessor, from the handset microprocessor which has calculated the blood alcohol content of a breath sample introduced into the handset by the vehicle operator. A breath sampling housing is enclosed within the handset in axial alignment with an intake port of the handset. A water filter and valve are positioned upstream from an electrochemical fuel cell. The fuel cell is coupled to the microprocessor. A pressure transducer measures the pressure of the breath sample. The handset microprocessor calculates a pressure offset through an algorithmic equation and applies the offset to the variable reading across the fuel cell to provide a normalized blood alcohol content measurement.

Refrigerator water filter cartridge with leakage indicator

ActiveUS8216463B1Improve manifold-to-cartridge water sealEasy to correctEngine sealsPiston ringsWater filterFiltration
A water filter cartridge particularly suited for a water filtration system incorporated into refrigerators includes an outer housing, a water filtration media inside the housing, and a cap affixed to an end of the housing to thereby enclose the filtration media. A portion of the cap defines a large cylindrical cavity having a channel formed therein which is positioned so that an O-ring provides a substantially water-tight seal when the filter cartridge is in an operative position in a manifold. The O-ring prevents water from otherwise flowing through the channel and externally of the water filtration system. Under normal water pressure the water filtration system will immediately visually exhibit a substantial leak if the filter cartridge is coupled to the manifold of the water filtration system in the operative position without the O-ring being positioned in the large cylindrical cavity.

Porous polymer water filter and methods of use in refrigeration

The filtration device of the present invention relies on materials and methodologies that achieve the formation of a structural matrix that may later accommodate the addition of other adsorbent materials as opposed to merely binding adsorbent materials together through the use of compression and / or binder materials. The filter device of the present invention relies on (i) a unique method of processing to achieve maximum density of materials, (ii) a polymeric material having a distinct morphology and (iii) a very small micron diameter of the polymeric material to create uniformity. For example, in place of compression to increase density, the materials comprising the filtration device of the present invention are instead vibrated into a mold cavity. Thus, the methodology of the current invention optimizes how all of the materials comprising the filtration device fit together without compaction. The material being processed is vibrated as it is gradually poured into the mold. Once the mold cavity has been filled to a point where it will hold no more material, it is heated and then cooled. In place of an external binder, the structural material adheres to itself as it softens. This results in a tortuous path matrix of pores rather than an absolute pore barrier.

Water filter cartridge with valves

A water filter cartridge having a housing with an inlet nozzle with a concentric, smaller outlet nozzle extending through the inlet nozzle with a space therebetween defining an inlet to a flow path passing through a filter and through the outlet nozzle. A diaphragm valve mounted to the outlet nozzle blocks upstream flow out of the inlet when the cartridge is not in use. An umbrella valve mounted on the end of the filter blocks downstream flow out of the outlet nozzle when the cartridge is not in use, thus reducing leakage when the cartridge is removed from the appliance.
