Water intake filter
The filter comprises a case and a removing cap mechanically connected by vertical uprights as well as cylindrical filtering net placed between the case and the cap. The case is made as a truncated perforated hollow cone, and a non square full slot along its big bass periphery. The slot forms a continuous contour to place the filtering net end. The uprights are attached to the cap by a set of screws. This version makes the filter durable, reliable and repairable.
Filter cleaning assembly for a dishwasher appliance
A dishwasher appliance includes a wash tub, a sump for collecting wash fluid, and a cylindrical filter screen positioned within the sump. A wash pump assembly includes a wash pump impeller and a supply conduit, the wash pump impeller being configured for urging the wash fluid through the cylindrical filter screen and into the supply conduit. A filter cleaning assembly includes a filter cleaning manifold positioned proximate the cylindrical filter screen and in fluid communication with the supply conduit and one or more vertical spray arms extending along the vertical direction adjacent the cylindrical filter screen, the one or more vertical spray arms defining a plurality of outer ports in fluid communication with the filter cleaning manifold, the plurality of outer ports being positioned and oriented for directing the wash fluid at least partially along a circumferential direction about the cylindrical filter screen.
Filter adapter for a fuel injector
A filter adapter for a fuel injector is disclosed. The filter adapter may have a filter housing. The filter housing may have a first connection end and a second connection end. The filter housing may also have a through bore extending through the filter housing between the first connection end and the second connection end and forming a filter cavity. The filter adapter may also have a first filter positioned in the filter cavity and including a first plurality of openings and a second filter positioned in the filter cavity and including a second plurality of openings. The first connection end may have a first connector configured to mate with a fuel outlet of a first fuel system component. The second connection end may have a second connector configured to mate with a fuel inlet of a second fuel system component.
HIGH FLOW, LOW HOLD UP FILTERS
Filter devices with a flow director surrounded by a filter element providing a large filter surface area and low fluid volumes for efficient filtration and high recovery of sample fluids. The filter device can be configured with dimensions and sealing surfaces to functionally interact as a pre-filter for common usage disposable filter flasks.
Oil filter for continuously variable transmission
A filter configured to replace an original filter disposed in a cavity in a transmission, increases fluid flow rate through the filter. An example filter includes a bottom structure configured to mate with the bottom portion of the cavity, and the bottom structure defines an outlet through which oil passes from the cavity to the outlet of the housing. The filter also includes a filter media having a bottom portion and an opposite top portion, the bottom portion being coupled to the bottom structure of the filter. In the example filter system, the outer diameter of the bottom portion of the filter media is greater than the outer diameter of the top portion of the filter media.
VORTICAL CROSS-FLOW FILTRATION SYSTEM
Systems and methods involving filtration are disclosed. A filtration device includes a first opening, a second opening, and a vortical filter, the vortical filter comprising a rib. The rib may be configured to generate vortices to keep the filtered particles in suspension and to provide a flow path extending from the first opening to the second opening. The filtration device may filter particle from the fluid by cross-flow filtration along the flow path across a filter media surrounding at least a portion of the circumference of the vortical filter. The filtration device may be effective at filters greater than 90% of microplastics mass when post-filtered to 10 microns when measured using the method of either of Example 1 or Example 2. The filtration device may be effective at filtering particles from the fluid at high flow speeds, such as flow speeds greater than 50 cm/sec or greater than 100 cm/sec.
FILTER ADAPTER FOR A FUEL INJECTOR
A filter adapter for a fuel injector is disclosed. The filter adapter may have a filter housing. The filter housing may have a first connection end and a second connection end. The filter housing may also have a through bore extending through the filter housing between the first connection end and the second connection end and forming a filter cavity. The filter adapter may also have a first filter positioned in the filter cavity and including a first plurality of openings and a second filter positioned in the filter cavity and including a second plurality of openings. The first connection end may have a first connector configured to mate with a fuel outlet of a first fuel system component. The second connection end may have a second connector configured to mate with a fuel inlet of a second fuel system component.
Filter Assembly and Fuel Injector
The present disclosure relates to filters in general, and the teachings may be applied to a filter assembly for use in a fuel injector, the fuel injector, and internal combustion engines. A filter assembly may include: a filter element with a frame having an axial end and a tubular filter housing receiving the filter element. The filter housing may have a side wall with a taper supporting the axial end. The taper may have the shape of a conic section with an opening angle of less than 180. The outer circumferential surface of the frame may include a first section in the section of the taper having the shape of a conic section with an opening angle of less than 180.
LIQUID/SOLID SEPARATOR
A separator for separating a liquid from a solid is provided. The separator comprises a housing with a longitudinal central axis, the housing having a top and a bottom. The housing further comprises an inlet for a mixture of the liquid and solid at the top of the housing, a solid outlet arranged at the bottom of the housing, and a liquid outlet arranged at the bottom of the housing. A conical screen plate is arranged within the housing, the conical screen plate dividing the interior of the housing into a solid collecting chamber and a liquid collecting chamber, the inlet running into the solid collecting chamber and the solid outlet running out from the solid collecting chamber, and the liquid outlet running out from the liquid collecting chamber. The conical screen plate is suspended in the housing, such that the conical screen plate is rotatable around a longitudinal axis.
Vortical cross-flow filtration system
Systems and methods involving filtration are disclosed. A filtration device includes a first opening, a second opening, and a vortical filter, the vortical filter comprising a rib. The rib may be configured to generate vortices to keep the filtered particles in suspension and to provide a flow path extending from the first opening to the second opening. The filtration device may filter particle from the fluid by cross-flow filtration along the flow path across a filter media surrounding at least a portion of the circumference of the vortical filter. The filtration device may be effective at filters greater than 90% of microplastics by mass when post-filtered to 10 microns when measured using the method of either of Example 1 or Example 2. The filtration device may be effective at filtering particles from the fluid at high flow speeds, such as flow speeds greater than 50 cm/sec or greater than 100 cm/sec.
