Abstract

1316461 Automatically backwashing filters AQUAMATIC Inc 15 May 1970 [15 May 1969] 23752/70 Heading B1D [Also in Divisions F2 and G3] Filter apparatus for cleansing liquids, e.g. from a swimming pool 10, and which enables backwashing to be automatically carried out for a predetermined time interval by reversing the flow of pool water comprises a multipart valve 15 movable between filtering and backwashing positions by positioning apparatus itself automatically controlled by a spring biassed diaphragm valve 30 which responds to the pressure differential across the filter in tank 20. The timing apparatus comprises a flow control constriction in conduit 44 which fixes the time at which the bias on the diaphragm is overcome. In Fig. 1, the positioning apparatus is an electric motor M, switches S1-S3 and circuitry whereas in Figs. 4, 5, 6 (not shown) the valve 15 is pneuamtically operated by a diaphragm attached to the upper end of its stem and located in a housing, the chambers so formed on either side of the diaphragm being alternately connectable to a pressure pump and drain by means of a two way switch valve under the control of the diaphragm valve 30.
