An air purification system for installation over a vent. The air purification system includes a housing including a rear-section having a filter-compartment; and a front-section having a set of horizontal-slats (louvers). Further, the air purification system includes a filter-receptacle removably received within the filter-compartment and configured to removably house a filter-means such as a HEPA filter. The filter-receptacle can be lowered from the housing so that a user may change or clean the filter-means, and then raised back into the housing for use. The air purification system is useful for filtering particles such as pet hair, pollen, mold, viruses, bacteria, etc. from air vented through the vent, therefore purifying air in a building.

A filter unit configured to be arranged on a process apparatus for particulate removal from process air of a process apparatus includes a filter housing, a filter basket including a filter basket ring, and a filter. The filter is permeable to process air and impermeable to particles being treated. The filter basket is arranged between the filter housing and the filter, and the filter basket and the filter are fastenable to the filter housing. The filter unit includes a sealing mechanism including a sealant element. The sealing mechanism including a sealing element is arranged on the lower region of the filter housing.

A coating material mist remover of the present disclosure includes: a first duct that discharges air containing coating material mist from an outflow port directed downward; a second duct having an inflow port opened in a horizontal direction; and an incinerable intermediate filter that is detachably connected between the first duct and the second duct and removes the coating material mist from the air. The coating material mist remover also includes: a first connection mechanism that can connect and separate the first duct and the intermediate filter; and a second connection mechanism that can connect and separate the second duct and the intermediate filter.

A filtration device may include a filter element and a housing that is configured to receive the filter element. The filter element may include a casing having a first outer surface and a flange connected to the first outer surface. The flange may include a plurality of snap members. A snap member, of the plurality of snap members, may include a fulcrum projecting from the flange and a lever mounted on the fulcrum. The housing may include a shell having a second outer surface and a plurality of ramp members. The plurality of ramp members may be fixedly connected to the second outer surface and may be configured to engage the plurality of snap members of the filter element. A ramp member, of the plurality of ramp members, may include an angled surface that extends from the second outer surface at an acute angle relative to the second outer surface.

The pocket channel frame provides a means for attaching the distal ends of a pocket frame without the need of any tools. The pocket channel frame is formed from a longitudinal member having an elongated “C” shaped cross section. One end comprises is a flared out female end with a rectangular slot or 5 hole in it. The opposing distal end of the longitudinal having a C shaped cross section is swaged down into a projecting male end including a lance punched in the web. When the male end is swaged, an edge is created in the transition area from male to female which acts as a stop means for cooperatively engaging the female receiving distal end and sets the length of a short side of the pocket channel frame. During assembly, the lance snaps into the hole cooperatively engaging the slot on the 10 female side preventing the channel frame from coming back apart.

Various embodiments relate to a filter housing seal member. The filter housing seal member includes a first member end and a second member end disposed axially away from the first member end. A first member portion is disposed between the first member end and the second member end. A second member portion is disposed between the first member end and the second member end. The second member portion is disposed radially away from the first member portion. An undercut is positioned along the first member portion, the undercut configured to receive and form a seal with a filter seal member of a filter element.

A filter assembly comprising: an inner cartridge; an outer cartridge; a cartridge flange end cap comprising a base peripheral flange and centrally-located cylindrical raised base; a cartridge flange top cap comprising a ring portion defining an opening, a peripheral flange; whereby one end of the inner cartridge is held around the centrally-located cylindrical raised base and other end of the inner cartridge is received by the opening in the cartridge flange top cap; and one end of the outer cartridge engages an inner wall of the base peripheral flange and other end of the outer cartridge engages an inner wall of the peripheral flange.

A vacuum cleaner that includes a suction source configured to generate a suction airflow, a dirt collector in fluid communication with the suction source and configured to separate debris from the suction airflow and the dirt collector is configured to store the debris separated from the suction airflow. The vacuum further includes an infrared sensor operable to output a signal corresponding to a distance to an amount of debris stored in the dirt collector, a controller that receives the signal, and the controller is operable to determine a fill level stored in the dirt collector based on the signal. A visual display displays the fill level stored in the dirt collector.

The invention relates to an air filter housing for use in an air cleaning arrangement for cleaning air to be provided to an air inlet of an internal combustion engine. The air filter housing comprises: a filter housing inlet for receiving air; and a filter housing outlet for providing filtered air to the air inlet of the internal combustion engine when an air filter is arranged inside the air filter housing between the filter housing inlet and the filter housing outlet. The air filter housing further comprises a closing arrangement controllable to be in each of a first state in which the filter housing outlet is closed by the closing arrangement, and a second state in which the filter housing outlet is open. The closing arrangement may comprise an iris shutter.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an apparatus and method for evacuation. An exemplary apparatus includes a trocar comprising an inlet at a distal end and an exit port at a proximal end, the inlet and the exit port are fluidly connected by a tubular hollow body circumscribing a cavity extending through a longitudinal axis of the trocar, the trocar includes a filter maintained within the cavity operable to filter at least one of fluid and particulates from a flow passing through the cavity. The apparatus further includes a vacuum source fluidly connected to the exit port, the vacuum source operable to pull at least one of fluid and particulates through the inlet, the cavity and the exit port.
