  • Publication number: 20250115491
    Abstract: A filter structure is disclosed. A filter structure according to an aspect of the present disclosure may include a plurality of membranes configured to selectively pass raw water through to produce purified water; a spacer disposed between the plurality of membranes configured to form a space through which the purified water flows; a tube configured to be connected to the space and the outside to form a flow path through which the purified water flows out, the plurality of membranes and the spacer being wound around the tube; and a seal assembly configured to extend along an outer perimeter of the plurality of membranes and seal the space in the outer circumferential direction, the seal assembly having a hardness different from that of the plurality of membranes.

  • Patent number: 12064728
    Abstract: An electrodeionization filter includes: a housing having a water inlet and a water outlet; a first electrode installed inside the housing in a spiral shape; a second electrode installed inside the housing in a spiral shape so as to be spaced apart from the first electrode; and an ion exchange module installed between the first electrode and the second electrode for adsorbing or desorbing ionic substances contained in water introduced by an application of electricity. At least one of the first electrode and the second electrode has a structure in which a center portion thereof is denser than a peripheral region thereof. Accordingly, the lifespan of the electrodes of the electrodeionization filter can be increased, and the assembly of the electrodes and related parts can be easily facilitated.
