Pool pump filter

[Category : - OTHER]
[Viewed 3229 times]

A filter comprises a cage that captures a foraminous center tube. The cage comprises end plates secured to multiple posts. A screen is wrapped with at least one full inner wrap around the center tube and with at least one full outer wrap around the posts. The screen is held in place with elastic bands or the like that surround and press the outer wrap against the posts. The center tube may be free to move within the cage. Alternately, the center tube, end plates, and posts may be integral with each other. When inserted into a chamber, liquid flows through the screen outer and inner wraps in two stages. The liquid then flows through holes in the center tube, through the interior of the center tube, and out the chamber. The filter is cleaned by unwrapping the screen, cleaning it, and rewrapping it over the center tube and posts.

SUMMARY

US 7,115,204 (US ‘204) discloses an efficient and reusable filter system that can be applied in a wide variety of pumps --from Swimming Pool to Hot Tubs to Aquariums to Shop Vacs to Air filters. We created the filter after growing tired of buying new filters every 2 weeks for a Simple set pool . The solution was a two-stage filtration system that utilizes a long filter element wrapped around posts to create a first zone of filtration, and a central tube to create a second zone of filtration. The granularity of filtration can be easily adjusted by the amount of wraps around the outer posts or central tube. The filter can be quickly cleaned by removing the wrapped filter element, cleaning it, and wrapping it back around the central tube and posts.

We have been invited to some big lot stores but due to the way we manufacture our filters and the cost to supply the big lot stores is to much for our small business, if your a plastic manufacturer it just takes 3 sizes of our filters to supply the big lots.

Hurry and get your Green filters made and ready for all the big lot swimming pools sales this summer. Then be the only producer of a Green cleanable shop vac .

If your interested in having your own product line please make a offer , From this patent you could make 1000's of different Products.

One problem is the big lot stores are looking for a alternative to all the throw away filters there warehouse's have to store to keep up with the pools they sell, with customers having to replace their pool filter every 2 weeks as recommended from the filter maker that ads up to a lot of filters.

The patent was filed on November 17, 2003 and was issued approximately three years later after a single office action. A Patent Term Adjustment of 261 days occurred: the patent will expire on August 4, 2024. The patent consists of 40 claims, five of which are independent. The claims are well structured and cover myriads of variations of the filter invention, which will make it very difficult for a would-be infringer to design around. From the Backward Citation analysis, it is clear that US ‘204 is wholly unlike any of the prior filtration systems. The patent’s specification gives a complete disclosure and supports all 40 claims. No limiting estoppel occurred in the patent’s prosecution history, and the patent has never been licensed, litigated, or assigned.
