Abstract: A self-cleaning assembly has an enclosed casing with a movable member/piston and a filter therein, the casing having an inlet and a first outlet for liquid supplied thereto and a second outlet for removing liquid containing contaminant from the casing. The filter assembly is constructed and arranged to provide, in a normal operating mode, a liquid flow path through the filter in a first direction between the inlet and the outlet and, in a cleaning mode, to provide a liquid flow path in a second direction between the inlet and the second outlet. The movable member compresses the filter during the liquid flow in the second direction and contaminant is released therefrom for removal from the filter assembly via the second outlet.

Abstract: A rotary valve for directing fluid streams which has a circular stationary head having at least one and desirably multiple primary ports for connection with fluid streams at least one secondary port. The stationary head includes a number of first circular concentric channels formed therein and at least one second concentric channel. The first and second channels are associated with the primary and secondary ports, respectively. A rotatable head is provided having radial chambers, each having a first and second port for connection between a first channel and a secondary port. The rotatable head rotates against the stationary head and channels in a fluid sealed manner. An indexable drive rotates the rotatable head to interconnect predetermined primary channels and secondary ports. The timing of rotation can be continuous or intermittent depending upon the associated process of the fluid streams.

Abstract: Regeneration of water treatment media is disclosed which includes a water treatment unit having one or more media therein, and which upon initiation of flow of the water, imparts turbulence and abrasion to the treatment medium to automatically cleanse the medium of light solid contaminants as well as contaminant coatings on the media. This greatly improves the operation of the media and extends its life. In addition, the water treatment unit disclosed may simply be rotated through any one of a number of positions between service, backwash, flush, off, and/or bypass operational modes for further regeneration of the treatment media.

Abstract: A filter unit includes:(a) structure providing a porous barrier between a first zone from which liquid to be filtered is supplied, and a second zone to which filtered liquid flows, via the barrier,(b) the barrier including a series of elements defining grooves, and filtering media between those elements and communicating with the grooves,(c) certain of the grooves presented for reception of liquid flow therein from the first zone so that liquid flows from the certain grooves through the media,(d) others of the grooves presented for reception of flow from the media and for subsequent flow via the other grooves to the second zone,(e) control means for providing backflushing only as required as an alternative to periodic backflushing.The grooves typically extend generally longitudinally and are exposed along their lengths to the barrier in the form of a membrane or membranes, at the sides of said elements, the grooves in the first elements exposed endwise to the first zone, and the grooves in the second elements exposed endwise to the second zone. A simple effective control means is also provided for controlling the direction of liquid flow between the zones, via the grooves and the barrier membrane or membranes.

Abstract: The invention pertains to an engine installation using marine water as a coolant and having an intake conduit system for drawing marine water to the engine including a strainer at the inlet and a filter between the strainer and the water pump. To clean the filter and strainer which periodically becomes clogged with foreign matter while the engine is operating, a valve mechanism is provided between the filter and the water pump which is operative to close the conduit to the pump and to admit compressed air to the filter side of the valve mechanism for a short time to blow back the clogging material from the filter and strainer to the sea. In a semi-automatic embodiment the valve mechanism is a solenoid operated 3-way valve which is preferably operated from the pilot house for a short interval of about 10 seconds when the boat operator observes an above normal engine temperature. In an automatic embodiment a heat sensor associated with the engine energizes the solenoid circuit when a predetermined above normal temperature is reached and a cycle timer in the circuit controls the solenoid operation through predetermined ON and OFF periods.

Abstract: Filter for swimming pool water in which multiple operational modes including filtration, backwash and rinse modes are achieved with a valve structure affording positive sealing during operation, positive locking into mode, and adjustment between modes without frictionally wearing critical seals in the valve. The filter valve structure further employs large ports and direct flow passages to provide low pressure drop, even at very high flow rates through the filter, and a novel water distributor to avoid turbulence and undue disruption of the filter medium during filtration.
