The user can determine whether the filter element needs to be replaced due to contamination by penetrating through the relative position of the dial plate 205 and the observation window.
In order to realize the reversing effect, the dial plate 205 is provided with a column 2051 which is movably matched with the pull rod 201; the reversing pieces are spiral guide rails 2052 arranged on the column body and sliding blocks 2011 arranged on the pull rod 201; the slider 2011 is movably engaged with the spiral guide 2051.
In order to enable the dial plate 205 to automatically reset after the user replaces the filter element, the pull rod 201 is connected with a reset elastic element 204; when the two ends of the pull rod 201 move along the self axial direction due to the pressure rise of the water inlet end or the pressure drop of the water outlet end, the reset elastic piece 204 is squeezed to accumulate elastic reset force. After the filter element is replaced, the pressure difference between the two ends of the pull rod 201 disappears, and the pull rod 201 automatically resets under the action of the reset elastic part 204, so that the dial 205 is driven to automatically reset.
In this embodiment, the restoring elastic member 204 may be an elastic body, or may be a flexible elastic bag.
Example 9
Referring to fig. 19-21, in this embodiment, the cueing assembly 2 includes a tympanic membrane 206, a flow switch 207, a circuit board and a valve stem 208; one end of the valve rod 208 is interlocked with the convex surface of the tympanic membrane 206, and the flow switch 207 is fixed on the valve rod 208; a Hall element 209 is arranged on the circuit board;
when the filter element is dirty, the convex surface of the tympanic membrane 206 is compressed due to the pressure increase at the water inlet end or the pressure decrease at the water outlet end, which drives the valve rod 208 and the flow switch 207 to move relative to the circuit board, so that the flow switch 207 is matched with the hall element 209.
This solution utilizes the characteristic that when the flow switch 207 and the hall element 209 are aligned, the hall element 209 will receive an electromagnetic signal, thereby identifying that the flow switch 207 is in different positions. However, when the hall element 209 receives the electromagnetic signal, it can be regarded that the filter element is dirty and needs to be replaced, and a prompt signal for replacing the filter element is sent. By arranging a plurality of hall elements 209, a variety of indications can be provided that the filter cartridge is clean, dirty, and must be replaced, depending on the position of the flow switch 207.
