Water purifier system and a filter element for such system

1. A water purifier system comprising:

a base unit; and

a filter unit detachably connected to said base unit,

wherein the base unit includes a water inlet tube for guiding water to the filter unit and a water outlet tube for guiding purified water from the filter unit,

wherein the filter unit comprises a container surrounding a replaceable filter element,

wherein the container is removably covered by a removable lid, the removable lid having an opening and a water inlet member, the water inlet member being configured for guiding unfiltered water from said water inlet tube into the container,

wherein the replaceable filter element includes a water outlet member at a first end for guiding purified water from the replaceable filter element to said water outlet tube of the base unit thereby preventing water supply to the water outlet tube when the replaceable filter element is absent, said water outlet member of the replaceable filter element extending out of the container beyond the removable lid through the opening in the removable lid that removably covers the container, wherein said water outlet member of the replaceable filter element connects to the water outlet tube outside the container,

wherein at least one member of the water inlet member and the water outlet member has a through-hole with two open ends for receiving one tube of the water inlet tube and the water outlet tube through one of the two open ends, and

wherein the one tube of the base unit has a closed end and a radial directed water pass-through opening between two seals configured to sealingly fit in the through-hole with the two open ends.

2. The water purifier system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the replaceable filter element has substantially a cylindrical shape, wherein the water outlet member extends in substantial axial direction at the first end.

3. The water purifier system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the water outlet member is irremovably connected with the replaceable filter element.

4. The water purifier system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the water outlet member extends through an opening of the container that surrounds the replaceable filter element and wherein the water outlet member is provided with a connector for connecting the water outlet member with the water outlet tube.

5. The water purifier system as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the water outlet member is irremovably attached to the replaceable filter element.

6. The water purifier system as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the replaceable filter element is substantially cylindrical, wherein the water outlet member extends in axial direction at the first end of the replaceable filter element.

7. The water purifier system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the water outlet member is provided with a seal for cooperation with a corresponding seal in the opening of the removable lid.

8. The water purifier system of claim 1 , wherein the replaceable filter element has a plurality of water inlet openings at a second end of the replaceable filter element, the second end being opposite the first end.

9. The water purifier system of claim 8 , wherein the replaceable filter element further comprises a cover member opposite an envelope of the replaceable filter element, the cover member comprising the water outlet member and being irremovably connected with the envelope.

10. The water purifier system of claim 1 , wherein a first seal of the two seals is near the closed end of the one tube of the base unit, and a second seal of the two seals is further away from the closed end than the first seal, and wherein the first seal has a smaller diameter than a diameter of the second seal.

11. The water purifier system of claim 10 , wherein the through-hole with the two open ends has a varying size being larger at a receiving side that receives the one tube of the base unit and smaller at a further side opposite the receiving side.
