Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/014134
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Invention is about improvements that are made in water redirecting, disk cleaning systems and sealing of filters which are used in irrigation systems for filtering contaminants at solid state in the water. Water leakage is prevented by separate usage of seal and o-ring as sealing between body and container. Another problem is solved by design of fixed stream director apparatus. To prevent disc moving from their axis during screw releasing of upper cap, a cap was designed and easy disc cleaning attained by same dimension of inner diameters of movable cap and disc holder.

DESCRIPTION

PLASTIC FILTERS OF IRRIGATION SYSTEMS

TECHNICAL AREA

Invention is about improvements that are made in water redirecting, disk cleaning systems and sealing of filters which are used in irrigation systems for filtering contaminants at solid state in the water.

PRIOR ART

Water leads the most important needs which are necessary for life. Using limited water sources with the most efficient way has been becoming more and more important. Forasmuch as insufficient irrigation is performed, it is hard to obtain efficiency at many areas of agriculture. Water should be delivered without any loss to the target, in order to achieve optimum efficiency. This fact improves value of sealing elements. One sealing is used between filter body and vessel, which in the end resulted with water leakage. Desired pressure can't be reached at irrigation systems because of insufficient sealing of one seal against pressure, so expected irrigation couldn't be fulfilled and desired efficiency couldn't be attained. Also water, work power and energy losses are added to account of country.

Another problem that is faced is cleaning disks during operation to make contaminants (foreign matters) fall (sediment, settle) downwards in order to observe filters main work which is cleaning solid contaminants. This duty is performed by stream director apparatus. Stream director apparatus in filters that are manufactured by known practice, starts to rotate by the pressure that water drives and can't perform its spiral directing job, because that it is not fixed. Direct water transition through filter causes rapid filling of discs and in consequence, it makes them work insufficiently. This situation requires operator action. If operator doesn't act, pressure would decrease and transferred water amount would degrade. This means insufficient irrigation. Filter cleaning is done as operator opens upper cap after releases its screw and moves discs towards upwards and downwards. In the known technique, discs make operator job harder by moving from their axis due to thin screw belly (body) of upper cap, comparing to disc holder inner diameter. It becomes harder when above disadvantage added to hard cleaning conditions and this prevents proper and sufficient execution of procedure. Also time and work power losses must not be forgot.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF INVENTION

In the filter that is developed at the end of studies of our experts by initiating with disadvantages of known technique, water leakage is prevented by separate usage of seal and o-ring as sealing between body and container. Another problem is solved by design of fixed stream director apparatus. To prevent disc moving from their axis during screw releasing of upper cap, a cap was designed and easy disc cleaning attained by same dimension of inner diameters of movable cap and disc holder.

Invention is consist of Container (1), Screw (2) which contains Segment (2.1), Cap (3), Disc holder (4), Disc (5), Twister (6), Nut (8) and Body (7) which contains O-ring (7.1) and Seal (7.2). Starting filter assembly is initiated with nut (8) mounting after mounting seal (7.2) and o-ring (7.1) to sealing channels of the body. After that, twister (6) mounted to disc holder (4) and discs (6) which have filtering contaminant solid substances during their filter transition, are aligned (lined up) on disc holder (4). Cap (3) mounted and screwed (2) after disk (5) aligning job completed. Filter becomes ready when container (1) and body (7) are fitted. A phased sealing system is placed between container (1) and body (7), channels that o-ring (7.1) and seal (7.2) can be used together is made and seal (7.2) and o-ring (7.1) are placed to these channels separately so probable water leakages are avoided. After water enters filter, it faces twister (6) which is mounted to disc holder (4) that is placed just over the water entry. Twister (6) sends water to discs (5) as spiral stream. While discs (5) hold foreign substances, water makes those substances to fall downwards by its spiral movement. At filter cleaning, cap (3) that mounted onto disc holder (4), slides to upwards by released screw (2) and discs (5) move easily without horizontal movement. Operator cleans easily and rapidly and make filter ready to re-operate.
