Referring to fig. 1 to 3, a filter assembly 10 in an embodiment includes a frame 100 and a filter screen 200, wherein the frame 100 is provided with a clamping groove 101, and the filter screen 200 is in plug-in fit with the clamping groove 101 along a first direction. The groove wall of the clamping groove 101 is provided with a limit button 102, when the filter screen 200 is inserted into the clamping groove 101, the limit button 102 can elastically deform, the limit button 102 is propped against one side of the filter screen 200 along a second direction, the second direction is the thickness direction of the filter screen 200, and the first direction is intersected with the second direction.

The first direction is the X direction shown in fig. 3, and the second direction is the Y direction shown in fig. 3. In this embodiment, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction and intersects in different planes. In other embodiments, the first direction and the second direction may be disposed at an angle other than 90 degrees.

In the above-mentioned filter assembly 10, when the filter screen 200 is inserted into the clamping groove 101 along the first direction, the limiting buckle 102 will elastically deform in the second direction toward the side far away from the filter screen 200, so as to apply downward pressure to the filter screen 200, so that the filter screen 200 can be fixed after being inserted into the clamping groove 101, and will not fall off during use or transportation; when the filter screen 200 is pulled out from the clamping groove 101, the limiting buckle 102 will be restored due to elasticity, so that the convenience in assembling and disassembling the filter screen 200 and the frame 100 in the filter assembly 10 is improved.

In this embodiment, the filter screen 200 has a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and correspondingly, the clamping groove 101 is also a square groove. In other embodiments, the filter screen 200 may have a cylindrical structure or other shape, and accordingly, the clamping groove 101 may have a circular groove or other shape.

In the present embodiment, the limit buckle 102 is integrally formed on the slot wall of the slot 101, so that the frame 100 has good integrity and high structural strength. For example, the limit button 102 may be integrally formed on the groove wall of the clamping groove 101 by injection molding or casting, and the mode of integrally forming the limit button 102 is not limited herein.

In the present embodiment, the filter screen 200 may be any one of the primary filter screen 200, the middle-effect filter screen 200, or the high-effect filter screen 200, and the type of the filter screen 200 is not particularly limited.

Referring to fig. 3, the slot wall of the slot 101 is penetrated with a through slot 103 along the second direction, and the limit button 102 is cantilever-shaped and disposed in the through slot 103. It can be understood that the groove wall of the clamping groove 101 is penetrated with the through groove 103 along the second direction, that is, the through groove 103 is penetrated with the thickness direction of the frame 100, and the limit button 102 is cantilever-shaped and arranged in the through groove 103, so that when the filter screen 200 is inserted into the clamping groove 101, one end of the limit button 102 can move, and the limit button 102 is elastically deformed and simultaneously abuts against one side of the filter screen 200 along the second direction, so that the structural design is simple and reasonable.

In this embodiment, the through groove 103 is a square groove to be matched with the limit button 102. In other embodiments, the through slot 103 may also be a circular slot or other shape.

Specifically, referring to fig. 3, the limit button 102 has a movable end 102a and a fixed end 102b that are disposed opposite to each other along a first direction, the fixed end 102b is fixed on an inner wall of the through slot 103, and the movable end 102a is movable along a second direction; in the second direction, the thickness of the fixed end 102b is smaller than the thickness of the movable end 102 a.

It should be noted that, the filter screen 200 is in plug-in fit with the clamping groove 101 along the first direction, and the movable end 102a and the fixed end 102b of the limiting buckle 102 are disposed opposite to each other along the first direction, so that when the filter screen 200 is inserted into the clamping groove 101, the movable end 102a of the limiting buckle 102 can move along the second direction. The thickness of the fixed end 102b is smaller than that of the movable end 102a, so that the limit button 102 is elastically deformed and simultaneously abuts against one side of the filter screen 200 along the second direction.

More specifically, referring to fig. 4 and 5, in the second direction, the movable end 102a is tapered.

Here, the movable end 102a is tapered in the second direction, and when the limit button 102 abuts against one side of the filter screen 200 along the second direction, the contact area with the filter screen 200 can be reduced, the friction force is reduced, and the filter screen 200 is effectively fixed.

In this embodiment, the movable end 102a has a wedge-shaped structure. In other embodiments, the movable end 102a may take other configurations.

In this embodiment, the clamping groove 101 is a square groove to adapt to the filter screen 200. In other embodiments, the card slot 101 may be a circular slot or other shape.

Further, referring to fig. 2 and 3, in the second direction, the thickness of the clamping groove 101 is at least 0.3mm greater than the thickness of the filter screen 200. Thus, when the filter screen 200 is in plug-in fit with the clamping groove 101, smooth disassembly and assembly of the filter screen 200 are ensured, and meanwhile, the limit buckle 102 has enough deformation.

It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the difference between the thickness of the clamping groove 101 and the thickness of the filter screen 200 may be other numerical ranges.

Further, referring to fig. 2 and 3, in the third direction, the width of the slot 101 is at least 1mm greater than the width of the filter screen 200, and the third direction, the second direction and the first direction intersect in space. Thus, when the filter screen 200 is in plug-in fit with the clamping groove 101, the filter screen 200 is ensured to be assembled and disassembled smoothly.
