Plastic Bank: 'Life Cap'

Last crawled date: 1 year, 10 months ago
My design is inspired by the 'Life Straw'

Unlike the life straw, the life cap has the ability to make you mobile,take the amount of water you need instead of walking to an water pit/river, drink a little then having to return later in the day.
So this enables you to fill a bottle and have clean drinkable water on you at all time.

The Life Cap consists of a plastic housing that is 3D printed and weighs just under 57 grams.
Inside the cap is a series of filters(filtration of dirty water making it drinkable).
the smaller cap on the life lid consists of rubber, this seals of the opening preventing spillage of water... it can rotate around the housing..

the filtering system consists of 3 main levels such as:
1. Membrane Filters (top and bottom)
2. Sponge, rocks or crystals(bottom half)
3.Charcoal Filter (top half)
*(for additional filtering another layer of plastic filters can be printed/added for maximum cleaning ability)

The life cap is designed to fit onto any standard coke bottle lid (500ml, 1l and 2l).. the cap can either be pre-designed to come with its standard bottle lid or just the cap where other attachment methods can be designed.

General measurements of the filter housing is approx 3 mm thick, OD 28,5mm and ID 25.5mm.
the height is 40 mm. the outlet end of the cap is Diameter 9mm

As we know with pollution, comes a dirty environment...
this idea reduces the plastic waste by recycling it, and providing clean water to the public for consumption.
