Description

The invention relates to a filter body for water purification, which Water purification processes, such as filtering contaminants, Removal of odors, colors and flavors, Water activation, etc., can perform at the same time and thus Volume of the water purification system is reduced, and a process too its manufacture.

The development of industry and technology had one Pollution and destruction. That is the water particularly affected. This can be caused by the water in many cities be detected. The water is vital Means and decides the survival of people. To do that Obtaining pure water was therefore different Water purification systems developed.

In Fig. 1, a conventional water purifier with the principle of reversible osmosis is shown, the filter vessels 12 for the filter insert 13 and the large-grain activated carbon 14 comprises, first filtering of contaminants by the filter insert 13 and then removal of the large-size activated carbon 14 Odors, colors and flavors. Therefore, this water purifier has a large volume, so that its use is limited. The large volume of the conventional water purifier is due to the graduated water purification process. Simplifying or shortening the water purification process can reduce the volume of the water purifier. The latter is realized in the invention.

The invention has for its object a filter body for To provide water purification and a process for its manufacture, the water purification processes, such as filtering contaminants, Removal of odors, colors and flavors, Water activation, etc., can perform at the same time and thus Volume of the water purification system reduced.

The invention is based on a further object, a filter body for water purification and to create a process for its manufacture,  which has a wide range of applications, as far as manufacturing of the mold allowed.

The following are tasks, features and functionality of the Invention based on the specific embodiments and the attached drawings explained in more detail.

As can be seen from FIGS. 2 and 3, the production method according to the invention contains the following steps: ( 1 ) sieving the filter medium: the filter medium is sieved with a sieve 1 of 12 to 18 meshes, the filter medium being andesite 2 , activated carbon 3 or anthracite 4 or their mixture can act; ( 2 ) Cleaning the filter medium: the filter medium is thoroughly cleaned with clear water so that it does not contain any contaminants; ( 3 ) high temperature drying: the filter medium is dried at 60 ° C to 100 ° C to rid it of water; ( 4 ) admixture of the binder: a binder is mixed into the filter medium or a component of the filter medium at a high temperature of approximately 80 ° C. to 120 ° C., whereby a sludge-like mass is formed; ( 5 ) high-temperature compression: the sludge-like filter medium is brought into a molding machine, where it is formed into a soft solid by compression at a temperature of approx. 100 ° C to 160 ° C; ( 6 ) Cool fixation: the shaped soft solid is cool fix with water or air.

The cylindrical filter body 5 shown in FIG. 4, which is only an exemplary embodiment and has no restrictive meaning, can be produced with the above-mentioned production method. Depending on the molding tool used, the filter body can also have other shapes.

As can be seen from FIGS. 4 and 5, the filter body 5 according to the invention is a body 6 which is bound by means of a binder and which has a multiplicity of fine pores 7 which can serve as meshes, so that the contaminant can be filtered off in the water, whereby by andesite 2 , activated carbon 3 , anthracite 4 the water purification processes, such as filtering off contaminants, removing odors, colors and flavors, water activation, etc. can be carried out simultaneously.

This eliminates the need for graduated water purification that the volume of the water purification system is reduced and the filter body according to the invention for various applications suitable is.

The suitability of the filter body according to the invention for various applications relates only to the adaptation of the shape of the filter body. Insofar as the manufacture of the molding tool permits, filter bodies of any shape and size can be produced. In FIG. 6, the filter body 8 and the ceramic filter insert 9 are square, placed one on top of the other and connected to one another by means of the corner connector 10 . This filter body can be used for boiling water machines to waterworks, especially in settlements, industrial areas, factories or public places.

As mentioned above, the filter medium can contain a suitable amount of andesite 2 , activated carbon 3 and anthracite 4 . In practical use, filter units can also be manufactured from a single component (the ceramic filter insert must be manufactured independently), as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, in which the andesite filter unit 8 A, the activated carbon filter unit 8 B and the anthracite filter unit 8 C are provided , which are distributed in the filter path 11 , the ceramic filter insert 9 being arranged at the end of the filter path (in order to avoid clogging of the ceramic filter insert since it has a fine filter effect). In this way, a complete water purification system or systems for different water purification levels can be built. A filter unit or the ceramic filter insert can be replaced immediately if he / she suffers from constipation. Selbverstständlich the Andesitfiltereinheit 8 A, the activated carbon filter unit 8 B, the charcoal filter unit 8 C and the ceramic filter element 9 can also be stacked and connected together by means of corner connectors 10, so that the volume is reduced.

The above-mentioned manufacturing process of the filter body and the reduction of its volume can also be used for ordinary boiling water dispensers, water purifiers, etc. As shown in Fig. 10 and 11 show a Andesitfiltereinheit 5 A, an activated carbon filter unit 5 B, a charcoal filter unit 5 are provided C formed as a hollow cylinder and fitted into one another, wherein the ceramic filter element is enclosed 9 A of this nested filter units. The whole is then tied together with an upper and lower cap 10 A.

The honeycomb structure 15 ( FIG. 10) of the above-mentioned filter body and the ceramic filter insert can be produced directly during the molding in the molding machine and serves to increase the filter speed. The filter body from the Andesitfiltereinheit 5 A, the activated carbon filter unit 5 B, the anthracite filter unit 5 C and the ceramic filter element 9 A can not only reduce the volume of the water treatment plant, but also increase the fine filter effect and the filtration rate.

The arrangement of a ceramic filter insert in one or multilayer filter body aims to effectively filter off Mud, microbes, iron rust and contaminants all in one Diameter up to 0.3 µm, whereby a fine filter effect is achieved so that the filter performance of the water purification system increases significantly becomes.

In summary, it can be said that the invention Water purification processes, such as filtering contaminants, sludge and microbes, removal of odors, colors and flavors, can perform simultaneously and thus the volume of Water purification system downsized and for different Use cases is suitable.
