A water purifier structure includes a container assembly and a buffer unit mounted in the container assembly. The container assembly includes a housing and a cap unit. The housing has a first receiving section and a second receiving section. The second receiving section of the housing is provided with a retaining portion. The buffer unit is mounted in the second receiving section of the housing and includes a positioning ring secured in the retaining portion of the housing, and a cushioning member mounted in the positioning ring. The cushioning member is elastically movable in the positioning ring. When the cushioning member is compressed by a force, the cushioning member is contracted and elastically deformed toward the second receiving section of the housing, to form a buffering force.

A filter, for insertion into an inlet duct of a water filtration system, has an annular upper end delimiting an opening around a longitudinal axis and defining a filter diameter. A side wall extends, around the longitudinal axis, between the annular upper end and a bottom wall that extends opposite the opening. The side and/or bottom walls have orifices to allow water to flow therethrough while retaining solid elements. The sidewall wall comprises a plurality of arms that each extend between a lower edge, connected to the bottom wall, and an upper edge forming part of the annular upper end. Each arm extends along an adjustable inclination so that the filter diameter is variable according to the inclination of each arm. When the filter is inserted into the inlet duct, the inclination of the arms is adjusted so that the filter diameter is adapted to the inlet diameter.

A filter element sensor module having a housing, a sidewall of the housing including a recessed portion. The sensor module including a sensor assembly being provided within the housing about a sensor port interface being provided at one end of the housing. The sensor module also including processing circuitry being configured to receive signals from the sensor assembly and communication module, the communication module being configured to transmit one or more sensed parameters from the sensor assembly.

A filter device is provided with a filter element for filtering a fluid. The filter element has a filter medium body with an end plate arranged at an end face of the filter medium body in relation to a longitudinal axis of the filter medium body. A filter base housing receives the filter element. An assembly component for assembly and disassembly of the filter element in the filter base housing is connectable to the end plate and to the filter base housing by rotation about the longitudinal axis. The assembly component has interlocking elements. An interlocking counter element is arranged at the end plate. The interlocking elements can be brought into axial interlocking connection with the interlocking counter element, while enabling a free rotatability in rotational direction about the longitudinal axis. The interlocking counter element is a circumferential interlocking collar with insertion ramps for insertion of the interlocking elements.

A separator, for separating solids from a liquid, comprises a hydrodynamic separator, a first filtration device, a first backwash device, a second filtration device, and a second backwash device. The first filtration device comprises a first inlet at a first level for receiving at least a first portion of the liquid from the hydrodynamic separator, and a first filter for filtering the first portion of the liquid received via the first inlet. During filtration of the first portion of the liquid, the first portion of the liquid passes through the first filter away from the first inlet and a first portion of solids is retained by the first filter. The first filter is located between the first inlet and the first backwash device. The first backwash device is configured to alternately prevent and allow the passage of the first portion of the liquid through the first backwash device such that, when the passage of the first portion of the liquid through the first backwash device is prevented, the first portion of the liquid that has passed through the first filter passes back through the first filter toward the first inlet so as to remove the first portion of solids from the first filter. The second filtration device comprises a second inlet at a second level higher than the first level for receiving a second portion of the liquid from the hydrodynamic separator, and a second filter for filtering the second portion of the liquid received via the second inlet. During filtration of the second portion of the liquid, the second portion of the liquid passes through the second filter away from the second inlet, and a second portion of solids is retained by the second filter. The second filter is located between the second inlet and the second backwash device. The second backwash device is configured to alternately prevent and allow the passage of the second portion of the liquid through the second backwash device such that, when the passage of the second portion of the liquid through the second backwash device is prevented, the second portion of the liquid that has passed through the second filter passes back through the second filter toward the second inlet so as to remove the second portion of solids from the second filter.

A fluid collection container includes a self-supporting, collapsible bag with a threaded cylindrical inlet ring or spout and a strainer removably seated within the ring. The strainer can separate a macroscopic solid object from a viscous liquid. The fluid collection container includes a rectangular prismatic box with the spout extending through and a threaded cap removably coupled to the spout. A method of draining automotive oil includes positioning the bag beneath an oil pan of an automobile, removing an oil plug from the automotive oil pan and allowing the oil plug to fall into the strainer; draining the automotive oil through the strainer into the bag; removing an oil filter from the automobile; removing the strainer from the inlet; inserting the oil filter; and screwing a threaded the cap onto the inlet.

A lattice filter for use in an inlet housing of a pump assembly including a lattice filter body extending from a filter inlet end to a filter outlet end. The lattice filter having a lattice structure. The lattice filter also includes one or more passageways within the lattice filter body. Each of the one or more passageways includes a passageway inlet located at the filter inlet end and a passageway outlet located at the filter outlet end. Each of the one or more passageways extend from the passageway inlet to the passageway outlet.

Provided are systems and methods to effect separation of solids from fluid runoff from poultry and produce treatment trains. The systems include separation panels that operate using the Coanda effect so as to effect separation of solids without the need for electricity or moving parts.

A filtration device is configured to be connected to an existing condensate drain line of a heating, cooling, and ventilation system. The filtration device is configured to collect metal and other debris as the condensate moves through the device and prevents the condensate drain line from getting a clog. When a clog is present or other issues affect a level of condensate to rise in the device and stop from draining properly, the device is configured to shut off the heating, cooling, and ventilation system. Alternatively, the device is configured to provide an alternate pipe for drainage.
