Fluid filter assembly with interface to indicate proper replacement cartridge
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11975279B2) discloses a novel fluid filter assembly designed to efficiently filter fluid within an enclosed housing. The assembly includes a unique boss formed in the lower portion of the housing, a filter cartridge with an end cap connected to a filter media, and a vent cap for atmospheric pressure regulation. The filter cartridge features a substantially cylindrical interface that securely fits into the boss, ensuring proper positioning and location within the housing. Additionally, the assembly incorporates means for identifying various characteristics of the filter cartridge, such as micron rating, filter capacity, and manufacturer details, to determine its suitability for the filtration system.
Furthermore, the patent details additional embodiments of the fluid filter assembly, including variations in the identifying means such as using magnets and proximity sensors, RFID technology for electronic information storage, and controllers for interpreting signals related to the filter cartridge's characteristics. The design also includes a riser pipe for secure positioning of the filter cartridge within the housing, ensuring efficient filtration and maintenance of the assembly. By incorporating these innovative features, the fluid filter assembly aims to enhance the filtration process by accurately identifying and securing filter cartridges with the necessary specifications for optimal performance, catering to a wide range of fluid filtration requirements.
