CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY FOR USE IN FILTER ELEMENTS OF PRESS FILTER AND PRESS FILTER COMPRISING THE SAME

摘要

The invention provides a connector assembly for fastening filter elements onto a supporting plate of a press filter, comprising a first cylindrical core, a first flange extending outward from the first cylindrical core, a second cylindrical core, and a second flange extending outward from the second cylindrical core. The first cylindrical core is shaped and dimensioned such that it snugly passes through and is meshed with a central through hole of the supporting plate, and the second cylindrical core is shaped and dimensioned such that it snugly passes through and is meshed with the first cylindrical core. Both the first cylindrical core and the first flange and both the second cylindrical core and the second flange are respectively moulded integrally from a non-woven fabric which has the ability of self-sustaining and shape maintenance, and is mouldable. The invention also relates to press filter fitted with the connector assembly.
