In this cartridge 10, the raw water can be introduced from either the upper opening end or the lower opening end, but normally, when the raw water is introduced from the lower side in the figure, the filtration area of the hollow fiber is high, and It is preferable because foreign matters such as dust and rust in the raw water do not easily stay inside the yarn. The raw water that has flowed in from any of the open ends is formed with a large number of small holes (not shown) formed in the hollow fiber 2 and has a diameter (0.1 to 0.1 mm).
Foreign matter having an outer diameter larger than 0.2 μm) is captured, and filtered filtered water flows out from the upper opening end. In addition, in the present embodiment, the shape of the tubular body in the cross section perpendicular to the axis is a cylindrical shape, but it may be a rectangular shape, and the filter medium also has a type of fluid, a treatment amount, and a degree (quality) of treatment. Various materials such as granular activated carbon, filter cloth, and wire mesh can be used according to the conditions. As for the O-ring 5, it suffices to prevent the raw water or the treated water from leaking between the cylindrical body 1 and the respective connectors 20 and 30. Therefore, a flange and a ring-shaped packing (not shown) provided at the open end of the cylindrical body 1 are required. You may seal with.

容易に連結できるので好ましい。As shown in FIG. 4, the upper connector 20 and the lower connector 30 are both synthetic resin moldings having the same shape, and flow passages extending linearly in one direction at the center of the flange 21 (31). Cylindrical body 23 having 22 (32)
(33) is provided, and a cartridge connection port 24 (34) of a constant length extending in a direction orthogonal to the flow path 22 (32) is provided on each side of the cylindrical body 23 (33). The communication ports 25 (35) provided at the connection ports are provided at regular intervals in communication with the flow path 22 (32). In addition, on both sides of the flange 21 (31), a plurality of notches 2 are formed as the insertion ports of the bolts 41 that are the fasteners 40.
6 (36) is formed, and the cylindrical body 23 (33) is further formed.
Male threads 27 (37), which are connection means for connecting to a source of raw water, an appropriate pretreatment device of raw water, or a filtered water supply device, which are not shown, are formed on the outer peripheral surfaces of both ends of This part becomes the inlet A of raw water or the outlet B of filtered water. It is sufficient that at least one inlet A and at least one outlet B are provided for each connector. However, as in the present embodiment, the inlet A and the outlet B are in a plane orthogonal to the cylinder axis of the cartridge at the upper connector or the lower connector, and It is preferable that the opening ends are provided at least at two positions in a direction away from each other. However, it is needless to say that three or more may be provided for each connector depending on design conditions such as the amount of treated water, filtration area, and piping. Further, the fastener 40 has the male screw 27 (30).
Besides, of course, a connecting means such as a flange or a union joint may be used, and it is preferable to use a commercially available one-touch coupler joint because they can be easily connected.

れを阻止する。As shown in FIG. 5, when raw water flows in through the inlet A of the lower connector 30 of the filter F1, the raw water is
Since the flow path resistance of the cartridge 10 is higher than the flow path resistance of the flow path 32 of the lower connector 30, the flow path of the lower connector is first filled uniformly. When the fluid pressure in the flow path 32 exceeds the flow path resistance of the cartridge, the raw water passes through the small holes of the hollow fiber 2 of each cartridge at a constant flow rate, and at this time, foreign matter having an outer diameter larger than the small hole inner diameter is captured. The filtered water is collected in the flow path 22 of the upper connector 20 and flows out from the outlet B thereof.
In this case, each cartridge 10 and each connector 20, 30
Raw water or treated water tries to leak to the outside between the connection ports 24 (34) of the above, but the O-ring 5 mounted on the cylindrical body 1 blocks this.

た効果が得られる。Therefore, in the filter F1, a plurality of cartridges 10 are arranged in parallel at predetermined intervals with the cylinder axis in the vertical direction, and the connectors 20, 20 are connected to the cartridges.
Since 30 is configured to be removable, it is possible to use a cartridge 10 having different inner diameters and vertical lengths prepared in advance and adjust the number of the cartridges 10 to be installed according to the application even if the installation area is small. The filtration area can be easily increased or decreased, and a large amount of filtered water with high water quality can be obtained. In addition, since the passages 22 (32) of the respective connectors 20 and 30 are provided with four openings for each of the two inlets and outlets for the raw water or the treated water, a total of four openings are provided for the piping at the actual installation position. If the mounting position of the blind cap 50 is changed according to the fitting condition, an excellent effect that it is possible to easily cope with some restrictions can be obtained.

に得られることは勿論である。In the filter F2 thus constructed, when raw water flows in through the inlet A, the total of 16 cartridges are filled in the channels 32 of the lower connectors 30 of the two filters F1. After being collectively filtered at 10, water is similarly simultaneously collected within the channels 22 of the upper connectors 20 of the two filters F1. Therefore, this filter F2 is
The filtration area can be doubled by a simple operation of simply connecting with the connecting means 70 such as the union joint 71. If a larger filtration area is required, it is sufficient to connect three or more blocks of the filter F1 in series in the horizontal direction. Also in the filter F2 thus configured, the flow path switching member 60 is also provided. Needless to say, the desired quality of treated water and the desired amount of treated water can be easily obtained by applying different kinds of filter media to the cartridge.
