  • Publication number: 20140069856
    Abstract: A water gathering cover has a water gathering element, multiple hole sets and multiple mounting sleeves. Because a cover of a water purification unit and the water gathering element are integrated, the assembling of the water purification device is simplified as follows. A filter cartridge of the water purification unit is mounted in one of the hole sets after being aligned with the hole set. A casing of the water purification unit is mounted around the filter cartridge and is mounted securely to a corresponding mounting sleeve. Then the assembling of the water purification device is completed. As a result, the water gathering cover comprises fewer components, which simplifies the assembling of the water purification device and lowers the cost. Besides, the assembling of the water purification device only needs one round of aligning process.
