An assembled support for supporting an adsorbent according to an embodiment of the present invention may include two or more core members configured to be coupled in the longitudinal direction and configured to include: a cylindrical body configured to have a plurality of first partitions formed therein to enable ventilation; at least one pair of first coupling protrusions configured to be provided on the rim of one end of the body to face each other; and at least one pair of first coupling protrusion receiving portions configured to be provided on the rim of the other end of the body to face each other, wherein the first coupling protrusions of one core member are received in the first coupling protrusion receiving portions of another core member in order to thereby couple the core members to each other, and wherein the surfaces of the core members are coated with hydrocarbon adsorbents.

Air cleaner assemblies, components, and features are described. The features can be used to provide that the air cleaner assembly includes a housing and cover within which primary and secondary filter cartridges, having a media pack and a seal arrangement surrounding the media pack, can be installed. The filter cartridges can include an open end cap with an axially deviating seal arrangement and a plurality of axially extending channels for engaging with ribs on the housing. The filter cartridges can also include extension members extending from the open end cap that include the axially extending channels, entirely or partially. The filter cartridges can also include a guide member extending from the extension members for providing a low friction surface against the housing during installation that allows axial force exerted by the installer to be translated into a rotational force that rotates the filter cartridge during installation.

The invention relates to a filter element (10), comprising a filter body (12) in concentric form having a longitudinal axis (L), a first end disk (16) situated on one end face (15), and a second end disk (18) situated on the opposite end face (17), and a support tube (14) situated concentrically around the longitudinal axis (L) between the first and the second end disks (16, 18). At least one of the end disks (18) may have support knobs arranged in a circular arrangement about the longitudinal axis and extending in axial direction outwardly. The at least one end disk may have a centering element (22) that is situated around the longitudinal axis (L), as a result of which the filter element (10) can be radially centered during installation in the housing (108). A support structure (20) may be provided on the at least one end disk (18) which is concentric with respect the centering element (22) and is provided for at least axially supporting the filter element (10) in the housing (108). The invention further relates to a filter system (100) for exchangeably installing such a filter element (10).

A filter housing for receiving a filter element is provided with a first housing part having a first housing opening and a second housing opening. A second housing part is connected to the first housing part. A first connecting socket is arranged at the first housing opening of the first housing part. A second connecting socket is arranged at the second housing opening of the first housing part. A receiving space is provided in an interior of the filter housing between the first and second housing openings, wherein the receiving space accommodates the filter element.

An air filter assembly includes a housing having an interior surface that defines an interior volume, a filter element positioned within the interior volume and having a filter media, an air intake formed in the housing, a debris outlet formed in the housing, a filtered air outlet formed in the housing, and a plurality of ribs. The filter element is spaced from the interior surface so that a gap is formed between the filter element and the interior surface to allow air to flow between the filter element and the interior surface. The plurality of ribs extend into the interior volume of the housing so that air flowing from the air intake is directed into the gap and around the filter element to complete a cyclonic filtering pass before flowing along a second airflow pass through the filter element. The outlet passage is configured to direct filtered air into a third airflow pass in a direction opposite to the second airflow pass.
