Abstract
The disclosed technology includes systems and methods for water filtration. In one implementation, a system includes a water receptacle to house unfiltered water, the receptacle including an aperture located in a sidewall, a valve component located on an exterior surface of the sidewall in alignment with a filter housing located on an interior surface of the sidewall filtrate the unfiltered water. In one implementation, a method includes filling a water receptacle with unfiltered water, filtrating the unfiltered water through a filter housing in the water receptacle to obtain filtered water, and moving the filtered water from the filter housing and out of a valve component connected to a first end of a filter housing.
Claims20
A method of using a water filtration system comprising:
- filling a water receptacle with unfiltered water;
- filtrating the unfiltered water through porous tubes encased in a removable filter sleeve in a filter housing in the water receptacle, the filter housing positioned adjacent to an interior surface of a wall in the water receptacle in a horizontal axis;
- and
- moving filtered water from the filter housing to a valve positioned adjacent to an exterior surface of the wall in the water receptacle, the valve connected to a first end of the filter housing via an aperture located in the wall of the water receptacle.
A method of assembling a water filtration system comprising:
- installing a valve arm of a valve into a valve receiver of the filter housing;
- connecting the valve to a first end of a filter housing, wherein the valve arm and the filter housing connect via an aperture located in a side wall of a water receptacle, wherein the valve is positioned on an exterior surface of the side wall and the filter housing is positioned on an interior surface of the side wall;
- attaching porous tubes to a second end of the filter housing;
- and
- sliding a removable sleeve over the porous tubes to connect with the second end of the filter housing.
A water filtration system comprising:
- a water receptacle to house unfiltered water, the water receptacle including an aperture located in a side wall of the water receptacle;
- a valve, the valve including a valve arm to control water flow, the valve and the valve arm located on an exterior surface of the sidewall of the water receptacle;
- a filter housing to filtrate the unfiltered water, the filter housing located on an interior surface of the sidewall of the water receptacle, a first end of the filter housing connected to the valve via the aperture of the water receptacle, and a second end of the filter housing connected to porous tubes to collect contaminants;
- and
- a removable filter sleeve to connect to the filter housing to encase the porous tubes and to disconnect from the filter housing to provide access for cleaning the porous tubes.
