A precision filter made entirely of fluororesin having both a high corrosion and high heat resistance. A plurality of tubular filtering elements are arranged in a fluororesin container. Each tubular filtering element has a polytetraethylene tubular filtering film closed at one end and arranged over or inserted into a fluororesin tubular support. The tubular filtering elements are connected to a cover structure, on the inner surface of which is formed a groove for communicating the tubular filtering elements to one of the liquid inlet and liquid outlet provided in the cover structure.

1. A filter comprising: a fluororesin container having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet; and a tubular filtering element arranged in said fluororesin container, said tubular filtering element comprising a polytetrafluoroethylene tubular filtering film closed at one end and placed over or inserted into a fluororesin tubular support. 2. The filter as claimed in claim 1, in which said polytetrafluoroethylene tubular filtering film has a pore diameter of 0.01 to 100 microns. 3. The filter as claimed in claim 1, in which said polytetrafluoroethylene tubular filtering film has a microstructure including fibers and knots coupled through said fibers to one another. 4. The filter as claimed in claim 1, in which said polytetrafluoroethylene tubular filtering film comprises two kinds of polytetrafluoroethylene porous films of different pore diameters laid one on the other. 5. The filter as claimed in claim 4, in which one of said two kinds of polytetrafluoroethylene porous films has a pore diameter of 0.01 to 100 microns, and the other has a pore diameter of 0.1 to 500 microns. 6. The filter as claimed in claim 1, in which said fluoroethylene tubular support comprises a sintered porous tube prepared by molding and sintering polytetrafluoroethylene particles. 7. The filter as claimed in claim 6, in which said sintered porous tube has a pore diameter of 0.1 microns to 1 mm. 8. The filter as claimed in claim 1, in which said fluororesin tubular support comprises a laminate including a first layer comprising at least one of a fluororesin net-like mold and unwoven cloth having a larger pore diameter than said filtering film and a second layer comprising a fluororesin porous tube, and said first layer being arranged on the side of said filtering film. 9. The filter as claimed in claim 1, in which said fluororesin tubular support is closed at one end. 10. The filter as claimed in claim 1, in which an open end of said polytetrafluoroethylene tubular filtering film is bonded to said fluororesin tubular support. 11. The filter as claimed in claim 1, in which said fluororesin container has at least one opening in addition to said fluid inlet and said fluid outlet, and further comprising a breather valve, said breather valve being made of a fluororesin porous material for preventing transmission of fluid and permitting transmission of gas, and said breather valve being provided in said opening. 12. The filter as claimed in claim 11, in which said fluororesin porous material is a polytetrafluoroethylene porous material having a microstructure which includes fibers and knots coupled through said fibers to one another. 13. The filter as claimed in claim 11, in which said fluororesin porous material comprises a polytetrafluoroethylene unwoven cloth. 14. The filter as claimed in claim 11, in which said breather valve is provided on a liquid inlet side of said container. 15. A filter comprising: a fluororesin container; a plurality of tubular filtering elements, each of said tubular filtering elements comprising a polytetrafluoroethylene tubular filtering film closed at one end placed over or inserted into a fluororesin tubular support; and a cover structure for tightly closing said container, said cover structure having a liquid inlet and a liquid outlet, said tubular filtering elements being connected to said cover structure, and a communicating groove being formed in said cover structure for communicating said tubular filtering elements to one of said liquid inlet and liquid outlet, said communicating groove being in the form of an arc. 16. The filter as claimed in claim 15, in which said cover structure comprises a supporting board to which said tubular filtering elements are connected and which tightly closes said cover to said container, and a fixing board sealed to said container and located outside of said supporting board, said communicating groove being formed in a surface of said fixing board adjacent said supporting board.
