An embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for cleaning a filter element 200, as shown in fig. 4, when the filter element 200 accumulates water for a first preset time, the method for cleaning the filter element 200 applied to the water purifier 10 in the above embodiments includes: s3: closing the water pump 300 and the water guide valve 700, and opening the drain control valve 500 for a second preset time; s4: opening the backwashing valve 150 to allow the backwashing water in the backwashing tank 110 to enter the filter element 200 through the backwashing pipeline 140, backwashing the filter element 200 by the backwashing water conveyed by the backwashing pipeline 140, wherein the backwashing time is a third preset time, and meanwhile, the water introduced from the water inlet end of the filter element 200 flushes the filter element 200 in the forward direction; s5: the drain control valve 500 and the backwash valve 150 are closed, the water pump 300 and the water guide valve 700 are opened, and the water purifier 10 performs normal water production. Optionally, the first preset time is between 0 and 24 hours, the second preset time is between 0 and 10 seconds, and the third preset time is between 0 and 30 seconds. As an implementation manner, when the second preset time is 0, it means that the drain control valve 500 does not need to be opened in advance before the backwash valve 150 is opened, and the backwash valve 150 is opened immediately after the drain control valve 500 is opened. Alternatively, the second predetermined time is greater than 0, which means that the drain control valve 500 is opened a predetermined time before the backwash valve 150 is opened. Or the first preset time, the second preset time and the third preset time may be within other reasonable ranges.
It will be appreciated that a certain amount of backwash water is already stored in the backwash tank 110 before the backwash tank 110 provides backwash water into the backwash line 140. As one way to realize, as shown in fig. 4, before step S3, S2 is further included: closing the water discharge control valve 500 and the backwashing valve 150, opening the water pump 300 and the water guide valve 700, allowing the water filtered by the filter element 200 to sequentially flow through the water pump 300 and the pressure stabilizer 130 and finally to be stored in the backwashing tank 110, adjusting the water pressure range in the backwashing tank 110 to be 0.1-0.8 Mpa by the pressure stabilizer 130, and operating the water pump 300 for the fourth operation time. The above-described step S2 enables a sufficient amount of backwash water to be filled into the backwash tank 110. Further, step S6 is further included after step S5 or step S4: the steps S2-S5 are executed circularly or the steps S2-S4 are executed circularly. When the steps S2-S5 are executed in a circulating manner, the water purifier 10 will "go through the circulation of water production (while the backwash tank 110 is pressurized), -filter element 200 cleaning, -water production again (while the backwash tank 110 is pressurized for the second time), -filter element 200 cleaning again", which can effectively ensure the effective operation of the water purifier 10 as a whole. Further, in step S2, the pressure stabilizer 130 adjusts the water pressure in the backwash tank 110 to be stabilized at 0.25 MPa. Furthermore, the filter element 200 is standby after accumulating the water for 0 to 24 hours, and after the water purifier 10 is standby for a fifth preset time, the water pump 300 and the water guide valve 700 are closed, the water discharge control valve 500 is opened, and the filter element 200 is cleaned. Step S3 can effectively remove impurities that enter the water purifier 10 from the external environment and attach to the filter element 200 in the standby state of the water purifier 10, thereby improving the timeliness and necessity of cleaning the filter element 200 of the water purifier 10.
According to the method for cleaning the filter element 200, the filter element cleaning assembly 100 in the water purifier 10 can effectively clean the filter element 200 of the water purifier 10, so that pollutants intercepted on the surface of the filter element 200 can be removed in time, the service life of the filter element 200 is prolonged, the service performance of the water purifier 10 is ensured, and the user experience is improved. Meanwhile, the pressure stabilizer 130 can effectively adjust the water pressure in the backwash tank 110 to quickly reach the design pressure, so that the filter element cleaning assembly 100 can effectively and quickly clean the filter element 200. The filter element cleaning assembly 100 can also be used as an independent assembly to be combined with a plurality of water purifiers 10 without the function of automatically cleaning the filter element 200, so that the application range of the self-feeding cleaning assembly is widened. Optionally, the fourth preset time is between 0 and 5min, and the fifth preset time is between 0 and 72 h. Or the fourth preset time and the fifth preset time may be within other reasonable ranges.
The following description will explain the cartridge cleaning assembly 100, the water purifier 10 and the detailed cartridge 200 cleaning method according to the present invention by using specific embodiments.
Specific example 1:

When making water, the purified water filtered by the filter element 200 is stored in the backwashing tank 110 after passing through the water pump 300 and the pressure stabilizing device 130, the pressure of the backwashing tank 110 is increased through the pressurization of the water pump 300, and the pressure of the backwashing tank 110 is controlled by adjusting the pressure stabilizing device 130, so that the backwashing effect in the backwashing process is ensured. The regulation range of the voltage stabilizer 130 is set to 0.1Mpa-0.8Mpa, for example, 0.25Mpa when in use. In the automatic cleaning, the water pump 300 and the water guide valve 700 are closed, and the backwash valve 150 and the drain control valve 500 are opened. At this time, the backwash tank 110 provides a washing power, the filter element 200 is reversely washed by the purified water of the backwash tank 110 through the backwash switch 151 and the backwash check valve 152, so that the pollutants on the surface of the filter element 200 are loosened or fall off, and the tap water provides a forward scouring force to further scour the pollutants on the surface of the filter element 200 and drain the pollutants from the drain control valve 500, so that the service life of the filter element 200 is prolonged.
Specific example 2:
as shown in fig. 3, the fine filtering and post-processing assembly 800 added on the basis of embodiment 1 can be a fine filtering system such as a reverse osmosis membrane, a nanofiltration membrane, an ultrafiltration membrane, and is applied to a water purifier 10, a water purifier, an engineering machine, a campus machine, a nanofiltration machine, and an ultrafiltration machine, so as to greatly improve the service life of the water purification product.
