A filter element and/or filter assembly such as for engine air filtration is provided that may include a filter housing, a pre-cleaner or cover, a primary filter element and optionally a secondary filter element. Different components may share a common seal to seal against unfiltered airflow. For example the secondary filter and the primary filter may use the same seal that may be carried by the primary filter. The secondary filter may also surround the primary filter.

In one example, an air intake system is provided. The air intake system includes a first air inlet duct providing intake air to an engine intake conduit, the first air inlet duct including an opening positioned external to an engine compartment. The air intake system also includes a second air inlet duct positioned upstream of the engine intake conduit and external to the engine compartment, the second air inlet duct including a porous material spanning an opening in the second air inlet duct, the porous material having a plurality of defined openings sized to prevent snow from traveling therethrough and collect on the porous material thereby impeding airflow through the second air inlet duct during snowy and icy conditions.

Intake assemblies for an engine are provided. In one aspect, an air intake assembly includes a screen defining a plurality of air passage holes therein, a fan, a flywheel, a crankshaft, and a screen support member coupled to the screen. The fan, the flywheel and the screen support member are coupled to the crankshaft with a single fastener, and the screen, the fan, the flywheel, the crankshaft and the screen support member all rotate together. In one aspect, the screen support member supports the screen a distance away from the fan such that the screen is completely spaced-apart from and does not engage the fan. In one aspect, a screen support member includes a base near one end of the screen support member and a plurality of coupling locations near a second end. The screen couples to the screen support member at the plurality of coupling locations.

A filter assembly includes a conditioning device that conditions a flow of air upstream of a mass air flow sensor. The filter assembly includes a support frame. The filter assembly further includes a filter media coupled to the support frame, the filter media having a dirty side configured to receive a stream of air and a clean side configured to output a stream of air that has been filtered through the filter media. The filter assembly includes a conditioning device coupled to the support frame, the conditioning device positioned in a downstream direction from the clean side of the filter media with respect to the stream of air, the conditioning device offset from the clean side of the filter media by a separation distance.

A screen filter for an intake of a turbocharger/supercharger includes a coupling device and a securing means. The coupling device includes a hollow interior with an open end, a filter end and a width defined by the distance from the open end to the filter end. The open end is configured to fit around the intake of the turbocharger/supercharger. The filter end includes a screen. The securing means is configured to secure the coupling device around the intake of the turbocharger/supercharger. Wherein, when the coupling device is positioned around the intake of the turbocharger/supercharger, the screen at the filter end is positioned over an end of the intake of the turbocharger/supercharger.

A filter assembly includes a support fame, a filter media, and a conditioning device. The filter media is coupled to the support frame. The filter media has a dirty side that receives an air stream and a clean side that outputs the air stream after having been filtered by the filter media. The conditioning device is coupled to the support frame. The conditioning device is positioned downstream of the clean side of the filter media with respect to the air stream and directly contacts the clean side of the filter media.

A silencer of a compressor for aspirating air to be compressed, with a housing having a front plate and a rear plate, a circumferential surface extending between the front plate and rear plate and bordering a suction area, via which the air can be aspirated, and a recess in the rear plate, via which the aspirated air can be supplied to the compressor. A flow-carrying metal component, in particular a wire component, is arranged in or adjacent to the suction area as a flame absorber.

An air intake system for a commercial vehicle is disclosed. The air intake system includes a hood with at least one frontal intake opening through which air to be guided to an engine of the commercial vehicle can flow and with at least one plenum configured to receive air flowing through the intake opening. The air intake system further includes at least one air pipe having at least one air duct with at least one inlet opening through which the air flowing through the frontal intake opening can flow, the air duct arranged upstream of and fluidically connected with the plenum so as to guide the air to and into the plenum. The air intake system additionally includes at least one air filter and at least one silencer plate arranged upstream of the air filter, the silencer plate having a plurality of through openings through which the air can flow.

An off-road vehicle includes an intake box and an intake duct. The intake box includes an internal space and a meshed wall. The meshed wall is attached with a filter and includes frames defining a plurality of openings through which the internal space is open to an outside of the off-road vehicle. The intake duct is connected to the intake box. At least one frame of the frames includes a base and a rib. The base includes an outer surface in contact with the filter. The rib protrudes from the base toward the internal space.
