    SEALED CLOSURE SYSTEM FOR CARTRIDGE FILTER
    DESCRIPTION
    OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
    The present invention relates to a sealing system for cartridge filter.
    Find special application in the field of industry related to hydraulic filters.
    TECHNICAL PROBLEM TO BE RESOLVED AND BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
    Cartridge filters are filtration equipment that consists of filter cartridges housed in a body that is connected to a hydraulic conduit and, therefore, is subjected to the hydraulic pressure with which the conduit works. The pressure filter consists of a body, or ferrule, and one or more covers that are mechanically fixed. The attachment of the filter to the hydraulic conduit is carried out in a manner known in the state of the art and is not part of the present invention, so its constructional form is not detailed.
    Cartridge filters are used in different applications such as systems for purification, for industrial water filtration, for the food industry, for the agricultural industry and for desalination plants. In the application focused on desalination systems, the fiberglass reinforced polyester (GRP) is used as a material, because this material has an optimal performance against water with different degrees of salinity, which implies a considerable reduction in the system maintenance.
    Cartridge filters are systems that basically consist of a body, which is connected to a hydraulic conduit, in which one or more cartridges with appropriate material for water filtration are incorporated. The filter also incorporates a lid that seals it tightly and, therefore, also closes the hydraulic conduit. In this way, when printing pressure to the hydraulic line, the filter is also pressurized, the water exerting a pressure on the cover that is supported by the closure system incorporating the filter of the invention. However, the cover must be removable, so that the cartridges can be accessed for review or replacement.

    In the current state of the art a variety of devices related to the seal systems used in the cartridge filters are known. One of the most used systems is based on a flanged cover-body joint. This system allows the body cover to be disassembled for maintenance or replacement of cartridges.
    The cover-body assembly is tightened by a series of bolts and nuts placed around the joint. The number and dimensions of the bolts to be used are calculated according to the ASME code.
    An existing alternative to the flanged joint consists of locking systems that include tilting hardware. These systems facilitate assembly since the screws are held in the body. However, they are quite less economical systems, since they do not use standard screws. In addition, they cannot be used in GRP bodies, being intended for metal parts.
    Another alternative consists of clamping systems with jaws. This system has a fairly flexible closure in terms of the number of jaws to be used in each case, although it is less economical than previous systems. In addition, it needs external fixing elements for the jaws, which are usually bars attached to the external wall of the body.
    Thus, the aforementioned devices pose a series of problems such as those mentioned below.
    In systems that incorporate flanges, maintenance times are high. Flange equipment maintenance requires an operator to disassemble all studs from the flanged joint. This procedure can be extended for several minutes. Once the maintenance is finished (cartridge change, cleaning, change of gaskets, etc.), the operator will have to screw each of the bolts of the flanged joint again according to a bolt tightening pattern described in the maintenance manual.
    As for systems with the use of tilting hardware and systems with jaws, although it is true that they can reduce maintenance time, it is also

    It is true that they are more expensive systems, since they do not use standard thymes and, usually, they are not used in GRP bodies.
    In addition, corrosion resistant materials are not used for these types of systems.
    Finally, the manufacture of these systems in several components, consisting of a body and one or two covers joined by flanges, makes them have a complex manufacturing and assembly.
    There is in the state of the art an alternative system consisting of a closing system, which does not include screws or bolts, so that attempts are made to avoid the problems that these parts entail. The system is based on two holes made in the body. In the first, more internal, an O-ring of elastomeric material, such as EPDM, is placed. The cover is mounted on the body supported by a projection, so that it exerts pressure on the joint, creating tightness in the filter. In the outermost pocket there are closing elements that exert pressure on the lid, keeping the system fixed. This system presents a series of problems, among which is the difficulty of manufacturing and the assembly of the lid as it has to be of very exact dimensions so that it creates an effective pressure on the O-ring and the desired sealing is carried out.
    The present invention solves the aforementioned problems by presenting a sealing system for cartridge filters of any type of dimensions, completely eliminating all types of mechanical joints by external elements. In this way, the system has the following advantages:
    - Absence of external fixing elements, jaws, screws and outer nuts.
    - Compact filter with a single body.
    - Unbeatable corrosion resistance.
    - Simple opening and minimum maintenance.
    - Valid for diameters of any dimension.
    - Small space.
    - Cost optimization.

    DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
    The invention relates to a sealing system for cartridge filters.
    The cartridge filter comprises a body, of cylindrical configuration for housing at least one cartridge, with a diametral recess and a tightly closed body closure system.
    For its part, the closure system comprises a disk-shaped sealing plate that incorporates a perimetral recess for the housing of an O-ring. The sealing plate is located on three support plugs, located perimeter inside the filter body, in the positions defined by three orthogonal spokes. On the sealing plate there is a closing lid, also with a disk shape. On top of the closing lid there is a stop, with revolution geometry, which is also housed in the diametral recess of the body. The stop has a protrusion that does not enter the recess, on which a retainer that has a geometry of revolution that prevents the stop moves is supported.
    In order to achieve the tight seal of the system, the O-ring of the sealing plate has an outer diameter greater than the inner diameter of the filter body in the area where the sealing plate is located, generating a pressure on the inner wall of the body of the filter and preventing the passage of fluid, which will only exert pressure on it.
    For its part, the closure cap fits tightly into the filter body and conceals part of the diametral recess of the filter body. Thus, the stop is housed in the outermost free zone of the recess, and the retainer is placed over the stop, inserted in the central hollow concentrically, preventing the stop from exiting the recess.
    In this way, the axial movement of the sealing plate is prevented due to the fluid pressure inside the filter, the sealing system being configured.
    The stop is formed by at least two pieces that, together, create the revolution geometry with which it is configured.

    The surface of at least one end, of at least one of the pieces that form the stop, is not coplanar with the axis of rotation of the revolution geometry. In this way, at least one end of at least one piece has an angled configuration, so as to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the stop, as this piece is the last to be assembled and the first to be disassembled.
    The filter can also comprise a lifting system for moving the closing lid that is attached, by means of a device incorporating a rod, to an "L" shaped lever with which the lifting system is operated. angled tube, with the rod fixed at one of its ends, and a hollow tube, fixed to the filter body, which houses the other end of the angled tube.The hollow tube incorporates a groove with a projection on each side, between which it passes the minor wing of the "L" geometry of the lever. Both the projections and the lever are crossed by a pin on which the lever can rotate. The end of the minor wing of the lever is inserted into the groove so that it is in contact with the end of the bent tube. By turning the major arm of the lever, the angled tube is moved and, with it, the rod, which will move the closing cap
    The invention also describes the assembly process of the sealing system described, which comprises the following phases:
    a) Insert the sealing plate with the O-ring into the filter body, inclined, until it is supported on the two diametral support tabs, the sealing plate tilting on said tacos until resting on the third support block;
    b) Place the closing cover on the sealing plate;
    c) Place the pieces that make up the stop in the recess and on the closing cover;
    d) Place the retainer on the stop, concentrically in the central hole of the stop.
    If the closing system incorporates the lifting system, the process begins with the closing cover attached to the lifting system rod.

    DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
    The present invention relates to a sealing system for cartridge filter.
    In a preferred embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the cartridge filter comprises a series of cartridges located between two covers. A first cover is located in the vicinity of the end of the filter that connects to the hydraulic conduit and performs the basic functions, on which the cartridges are supported. The second cover is a cartridge fixing cover and is located in the vicinity of the free end of the filter. Both covers are joined by means of plastic bars, longer than the length of the cartridges, threaded at one end at the first cover and, after passing through holes in the fixing cover, threaded by using some nuts at its other end. In this way, and by threading the nuts, the fixing cover presses the cartridges against the base cover, fixing the cartridges and keeping them in their working position.
    As can be seen in Figures 1 and 2, the cartridge filter comprises a body (1), of cylindrical geometry and a diametral recess (6), made in the vicinity of its free end which, although it can have any configuration, preferably it is rounded geometry.
    Inside the body (1) of the filter and in the vicinity of the recess (6), there are two diametrically opposed support blocks (7) and a third support block (7) located in a position perpendicular to the diameter that joins the other two support blocks (7), with the function of supporting a sealing plate (2). In this way, the support studs (7) are located perimetrically inside the body (1) of the filter in the positions defined by three orthogonal radii. The sealing plate (2) is a disk that incorporates a perimeter recess where an O-ring (12) is housed perimetrically. The diameter of the sealing plate (2) is slightly smaller than the internal diameter of the
    5
    10

    30
    body (1) of the filter in the mounting position. Thus, by incorporating the sealing plate (2) an O-ring (12), the outer diameter of the O-ring (12) is larger than the internal diameter of the body (1) of the filter and, the assembly will be pressurized . The pressure of the gasket (12) on the inner wall of the body (1) is sufficient so that the sealing plate (2) can remain stable on the three support plugs (7) and performs the sealing function that it is required when positioned perpendicular to the axis of the body (1) in which it is housed. However, having only three support blocks (7) is essential in the system since, in order to disassemble the sealing plate (2), it is enough to hit the sealing plate (2), so that it swings on the two blocks (7) located diametrically opposite, in an area opposite the third support block (7). This area free of support studs (7) where the sealing plate (2) is struck to proceed with its disassembly can be marked on the plate itself (2). In this way, care must be taken to position it correctly at the time of assembly. Another form of control can be by making a mark in the area of the filter body where the support plugs (7) are not.
    On the sealing plate (2) a closure cover (3) is located, which supports the location of a stop (4). The closing cover (3) ensures the perpendicular positioning of the sealing plate (2) with respect to the axis of the body (1).
    The stop (4) has a geometry of revolution whose section, in this preferred embodiment, has a quarter-circle configuration with one of the sides extended to form a protuberance, as can be seen in Figures 2 and 3. In any In this case, the section of the stop (4) can have, in general, any geometry in the generic form of "L", that is to say, incorporating an area that is inserted into the recess (6) and another area that protrudes from the recess (6 ).
    Although the stop (4) can be formed by a single piece, it is preferably sectioned forming several pieces, so that its assembly and disassembly is facilitated. Thus, in an embodiment of the stop (4), as shown in Figure 4, the pieces in which the stop (4) is divided are created with orthogonal sections, that is, coplanar with the axis of rotation of the geometry of revolution.

    In another embodiment of the stop (4), as shown in Figure 5, the ends of one of the pieces that form the stop (4) are created by sections that are not coplanar with the axis of rotation of the geometry of revolution, presenting an angled geometry. This new piece geometry is made to facilitate even more the assembly and disassembly of the stop (4), so that the piece with the angled geometry is the last one to be assembled and the first to be disassembled as a closing piece of the assembly. In addition, although the piece may have only one end with this configuration, or that there may be several pieces with this configuration, it is preferable that only one of the pieces has this configuration, so that it is easily recognizable when the set is mounted.
    The closing cover (3) hides a part of the recess (6), leaving the remaining part of the recess (6) free so that the stop (4) is housed by its circular geometry, leaving the protuberance on the outside, just as It is represented in figures 2 and 3
    As shown in Figure 2, in order to prevent the pieces that form the stop (4) from leaving the recess (6), the system also comprises a retainer (5). The retainer (5) is inserted concentrically into the hole of the stop (4). The geometry of the seal (5) is also of revolution, as is the stop (4), with a section in the form of "L". The smaller wing of the "L" is intended to rest on the protrusion of the stop (4 ). The major wing of the "L" is intended to prevent the movement of the stop (4) into the body (1).
    The protrusion of the stop (4) has two functions, such as supporting the retainer (5) and the grip area to be removed from the recess (6).
    In another embodiment, the filter incorporates a lifting system (8) to facilitate the removal of the closing cover (3) and to access the inside of the filter, as shown in Figure 3.
    As shown in Figure 3, the lifting system (8) is composed of a device formed by a hollow tube (9) fixed to the body (1) of the filter, its axes being aligned. Inside the tube (9) one of the ends of a bent tube (10) is housed to reach, with the other end, the center of the body (1). This other end incorporates a rod (11) fixed to the closing cover (3).
    5
    10

    25

    The hollow tube (9) incorporates a groove and a pair of projections (13) on each side crossed by a pin (15). Between the projections (13) and, crossed by the pin (15), a "L" shaped lever (14) is located. The end of the small "L" lever wing (14) is located inside of the grooving of the hollow tube (9) and contact one of the ends of the elbow tube (10). In this way, by rotating the major wing of the lever in "L" (14) with respect to the pin (15), the minor wing also rotates and causes the elbow tube (10) to move.
    Thus, when the lever (14) is operated, the angled tube (10) rises with the rod (11) attached to it, causing the closure cap (3) to be removed.
    When removing the closing cover (3), there is free access to remove the sealing plate (2) by hitting it so that it swings on the support blocks (7) located diametrically opposite in an area opposite the third support block (7).
    It should be noted that, before operating the lever (14) of the lifting system, the retainer (5) must have been removed and the stop (4) removed from the system since, otherwise, the movement is impeded.
    By means of the closure system of the present invention, a sealed closure of the cartridge filter is produced where it is installed, reducing the opening and closing times during maintenance operations in a considerable way when compared to current systems.
    The present invention also relates to the process of assembling the closure system in the cartridge filter. In this way, the process includes the following phases:
    a) Insert the sealing plate (2) with the O-ring (12), in the body (1) of the filter, in an inclined manner, until it is supported on the support blocks (7) located diametrically opposite and tilting on said blocks until rest on the third support block (7);
    b) Place the closing cover (3) on the sealing plate (2);
    c) Insert the pieces that form the stop (4) into the recess (6) of the body (1);
    d) Place the retainer (5) on the stop (4), concentrically in the central hole of the stop (4).
    If the filter incorporates the lifting system (8), the process begins 5 considering that the closing cover (3) is fixed to the rod (11).
    In any case, the present invention should not be limited to the embodiment described herein. Other configurations can be made by those skilled in the art in view of the present description. Accordingly, the scope of the invention is defined by the following claims.
