Title: Cartouche filtrante pour carafe a ecoulement inverse
Inventor: LOMBARDO ANDREW W
IPC: B01D27/07
Filed: 2015-08-31
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une cartouche filtrante pour carafe destinée à des applications d'écoulement inversé. Le capuchon d'extrémité du logement du filtre et du milieu filtrant dirige un fluide non filtré dans la cavité annulaire du milieu filtrant, à travers les parois latérales du milieu filtrant. Et le capuchon d'extrémité inférieur du milieu filtrant empêche toute sortie du fluide filtré sortant à travers l'extrémité du milieu filtrant ou de la cavité annulaire. Le fluide filtré est à la place dirigé vers l'extérieur à travers des ouvertures dans la paroi latérale du logement du filtre. Le rapport optimal entre la surface de l'orifice de la cavité annulaire et/ou du capuchon d'extrémité supérieur par rapport au périmètre respectif est déterminé pour éliminer le risque d'écoulement préjudiciable de fluide dû à la génération de bulles d'air.
