Abstract: In a water purifier, a flow system includes a first channel in which liquid is filtrated in at least one of a first filter tank and a second filter tank, a second channel in which the liquid is filtrated in the second filter tank and the first filter tank is washed, and a third channel in which the liquid is filtrated in the first filter tank and the second filter tank is washed. A switching lever actuates valve mechanisms to perform switching among the first, second, and third channels such that the channels are selected cyclically in order of the first channel, the second channel, the first channel, the third channel and the first channel. The valve mechanisms work with operation of the switching lever.

Abstract: A water filter assembly for a beverage dispenser. The water filter assembly may generally include a one-way valve disposed in the filter housing to allow air and water to escape so that the filter cartridge may be completely saturated. The one-way valve prevents air and water from entering the filter housing from the reservoir, thereby maintaining a vacuum that prevents the water level in the filter housing from dropping along with the water level of the reservoir. Furthermore, a protective screen is placed upstream of the one-way valve to prevent the sealing surface of the valve from becoming contaminated with debris or other sediment. In this manner, the one-way valve may maintain proper sealing performance throughout the lifetime of the filter.

Abstract: A system and method for a point of use filtration system with backwash is provided. The system includes a first filtration element, a tank, and a second filtration element positioned downstream from the tank. A first and second valve are each positioned downstream from the first filtration element. A first control line is coupled to a first control switch or a first permeate line and the first valve, and a second control line is coupled to the second control switch or a second permeate line and the second valve. When the point of use demands permeate water, the first and second pressure drops cause the first and second valves to open so water from the tank flows in a reverse direction to backwash the first filtration element and exit through the first and second valves to the drain, while water from the tank simultaneously flows through the second filtration element to the point of use.
