Abstract

A water purifying filter coupled to a mouth ( 20 ) of a beverage container ( 10 ) in which water or drinking water is stored, includes: a tubular housing ( 100 ) having a first screw ( 110 ) for coupling to a screw part ( 21 ) provided at the mouth of the beverage container that is formed on an inside of a lower end portion thereof and a second screw ( 120 ) for coupling a cap ( 30 ) of the beverage container that is formed on an outside of an upper end portion thereof; a first filter ( 200 ) disposed inside the housing to primarily purify the drinking water discharged from the beverage container; a second filter ( 300 ) disposed at an upper end portion of the first filter to secondarily purify the drinking water primarily purified through the first filter; and a cover unit ( 400 ) inserted into a lower end portion of the housing.

Claims (12)

1. A water purifying filter coupled to a mouth ( 20 ) of a beverage container ( 10 ) in which water or drinking water is stored, comprising:

a tubular housing ( 100 ) having a first screw ( 110 ) for coupling to a screw part ( 21 ) provided at the mouth of the beverage container that is formed on an inside of a lower end portion thereof, a second screw ( 120 ) for coupling a cap ( 30 ) of the beverage container that is formed on an outside of an upper end portion thereof, and an inclined surface inclined upward in an outward direction at a position correspond to an inner edge of the mouth of the beverage container, so that one side of an upper end of the mouth of the beverage container is supported on the inclined surface;

a first filter ( 200 ) disposed in a longitudinal direction of the housing inside the housing to primarily purify the drinking water discharged from the beverage container;

a second filter ( 300 ) disposed at an upper end portion of the first filter and having one side of a lower surface thereof supported by the first filter to secondarily purify the drinking water primarily purified through the first filter; and

a cover unit ( 400 ) inserted into the lower end portion of the housing to allow the first filter to be embedded therein and having an aperture ( 410 ) formed on a lower surface thereof to allow the drinking water discharged from the beverage container to pass through,

wherein the housing ( 100 ) includes a water leakage prevention protrusion ( 130 ) for inserting an upper end portion of the mouth of the beverage container therein which is disposed at an upper end portion of the first screw to prevent the drinking water from leaking to the outside, the water leakage prevention protrusion ( 130 ) including:

an outer frame ( 131 ) extending upwardly from the upper end portion of the first screw;

a sealing frame ( 132 ) bent inwardly from an upper end portion of the outer frame and in close contact with an upper surface of the mouth; and

an inner frame ( 133 ) that is bent downward from one end of the sealing frame and is in contact with an inner circumferential surface of the mouth,

wherein the water leakage prevention protrusion ( 130 ) is formed to have the inclined surface ( 134 ) inclined in an outward direction from the inner frame toward the sealing frame.

2. The water purifying filter according to claim 1 , wherein the aperture ( 410 ) of the cover unit is disposed along an outer periphery of a blocking plate ( 420 ) provided in a central portion of the lower surface of the cover unit so that the drinking water discharged from the beverage container is introduced from the outer direction of the first filter.

3. The water purifying filter according to claim 2 , wherein the blocking plate further includes a protruding member ( 421 ) formed on an upper surface thereof to be inserted into a lower end portion of the first filter.
