An airborne pathogen extraction system that provides for continuous airborne pathogen particle extraction from a specifically targeted area in a room or a specifically targeted area proximate to a user. The pathogenic particles are filtered and/or disinfected before the air is returned proximate to the originating location, or are directed an area away from the user(s). The airborne pathogen extraction systems and methods lower the chances of contagion or infection from airborne pathogens, such as viruses.

A buried type air purifier including a main body to be buried in a buried space through a buried opening provided on a boundary surface between a use space and the buried space, the main body having an intake passage and a discharge passage which take in and discharge air, respectively; a fan to guide air of the use space along the intake passage and the discharge passage; and a filter to filter the air. The main body includes: a first main body part having a fan accommodating part to accommodate the fan; and a second main body part having a cross sectional area, which is parallel with the boundary surface, being smaller than the first main body part, where the second main body part is formed to pass the intake and discharge passages through which the air guided via the fan accommodated in the fan accommodating part passes.

A cleaner comprises a housing having a dust collection chamber formed in the housing and configured to open and close, a main body movable relative to the housing between a first position whereby the main body closes the dust collection chamber and a second position whereby the main body opens the dust collection chamber, and a motor filter mountable to and demountable from the main body, wherein the main body includes a fan motor unit to generate a suction force, and a shutter device mountable into the main body and configured to open and close a flow path between the motor filter and the fan motor unit.

The present disclosure provides three-dimensional (3D) printing systems, apparatuses, software, and methods for the production of at least one requested 3D object. The 3D printer includes a material conveyance system, filtering system, and unpacking station. The material conveyance system may transport pre-transformed material against gravity. The 3D printing described herein comprises facilitating non-interrupted material dispensing through a component of the 3D printer, such as a layer dispenser.

Various embodiments of the present invention disclosed herein relate to an air cleaner, and may suck outside air and purify and sterilize the outside air, and may perform sterilization of a filter. An embodiment of the invention disclosed herein discloses an air cleaner including a body forming an appearance; a suction unit formed on the body and introduced with outside air; a discharge unit formed on the body and discharging the air introduced through the suction unit; a fan module provided inside the body and forming a flow of air introduced into the suction unit and discharged to the discharge unit; a filter unit provided inside the body to filter the air introduced into the suction unit; and a light source unit provided inside the body and irradiating light toward an inner side surface of the filter unit.

A power tool includes a power tool housing including a fluid inlet and a discharge outlet. A motor is supported by the power tool housing. A tool is configured to be moved relative to the housing by the motor. A fan is configured to be rotated by the motor, such that a fluid flow with debris generated by movement of the tool is drawn into the fluid inlet and through the discharge outlet. A filter is removably attached to the power tool housing. The filter includes a filter media configured to separate the debris from the flow of fluid. The filter media includes a collection container configured to store the debris. The filter also includes an opening in the filter media through which the flow of fluid with the debris enters the collection container, and a valve that is moveable between a closed position and an open position.

The disclosure concerns air cleaners. Preferred air cleaners are shown which include a housing and a removable and replacement primary filter cartridge. Optional and advantageous features are shown. The preferred primary filter cartridge is conical in shape. A preferred optional safety or secondary filter cartridge is shown. Preferred methods of assembly and use are provided.

Systems and methods for coupling filter elements to at least one flange extending inside a housing are disclosed. In one aspect, a filter system may include a housing having an inlet, an outlet, a first end, a second end, a sidewall extending between the first end and the second end, a longitudinal centerline, and at least one flange extending inside the housing; and a plurality of filter elements located inside the housing, the plurality of filter elements each including an end shaped to couple directly to the at least one flange.

A sorption device for filtering evaporation emissions from a fuel tank, includes a vessel, with a first opening connected to an air removal path of the fuel tank and a second opening opening to atmosphere, a middle annular space between a radial outer circumferential boundary of the middle annular space and a radial inner circumferential boundary thereof radially inwardly spaced apart from the outer boundary, a first annular space formed between a radial inner surface of a fluid-tight circumferential outer shell of the vessel, the radial outer boundary being radially inwardly spaced from the inner surface, a sorbent material arranged in the middle annular space, and evaporation emissions from the fuel tank are guided through the first opening into the first annular space, through the sorbent material into a central space of the vessel in the radial direction, and through the second opening to atmosphere or another sorption device.

A filter for a sorbent regeneration process includes a base, a central rod, support frames, and a filter screen. The central rod is coupled to the base and defines a longitudinal axis of the filter. Each of the support frames are coupled to and protrude radially from the central rod. Each of the support frames are coupled to the base. For each pair of neighboring support frames, the filter includes a triangular support member disposed between the pair of neighboring support frames. Each triangular member is coupled to the central rod and to each of the neighboring support frames. The filter screen surrounds the support frames and is coupled to the support frames and to the base.
