A filter arrangement for an aquarium is disclosed. The filter arrangement can include a filter housing assembly, a pump assembly, and a transfer tube assembly. In one aspect, the housing assembly and the pump assembly are separately constructed assemblies that are connected to each other via a first dampening member to prevent vibration and sound from being transmitted from the pump assembly to the filter housing assembly. The filter arrangement can further include a second dampening member connecting the pump assembly with the transfer tube assembly to further prevent vibration and sound from being transmitted from the pump assembly to the filter housing assembly. A third dampening member can be provided at a location where the transfer tube assembly is supported within the filter housing assembly to further isolate vibration and sound from being transmitted from the pump assembly to the filter housing assembly via the transfer tube assembly.

A pond filter unit and a method for operating a pond filter unit is provided. A control unit controls the operation of the pond filter unit, including the cleaning cycle of the filter. The pond filter unit further includes one or more plugs for connecting one or more auxiliary devices, such as a separate pump, one or more additional pond filter units, illumination means/lamps, air pumps, and/or feed automats. The control unit of the pond filter further controls the one or more auxiliary devices connected to the plugs, such as pumps, air pumps, automatic feeding devices based on input settings for each of the one or more auxiliary devices. The control unit further controls the cleaning cycle for cleaning of the filter in the vessel.

The present invention relates to a water filter cartridge, with a housing and a flow path for air for ventilating a water tank storing water to be processed by the water filter cartridge. The latter is distinguished in that shut-off means are provided for the flow path for air, preferably in the form of a valve or a membrane.

A fuel filter element has a screen fabric as a filter medium and a support tube supporting the screen fabric. A valve body guide for guiding a spherical valve body is provided. The valve body guide has a fluid channel and one or more support ribs for supporting the spherical valve body. The support ribs extend along a longitudinal direction of the fluid channel and project radially into the fluid channel. A filter assembly with such a fuel filter element is provided. The filter assembly has a ball valve with spherical valve body and a filter housing with a valve seat for the spherical valve body of the ball valve.

The disclosure provides a filter element assembly and a water purifier. The filter element assembly includes a filter bottle, an interface mechanism and a connector. The interface mechanism is provided on the filter bottle; the connector is connected to the interface mechanism to form a water passage to communicate with the filter bottle; a blocking member is movably provided on a mechanism body and has a first position for closing the water passage and a second position for opening the water passage; a magnetic member is provided on the mechanism body and produces a magnetic force to the blocking member, for driving the blocking member to move towards the first position; the connector is inserted into the water passage to push the blocking member to the second position.

An inline reductant filter assembly includes a filter housing, a filter media, and one or more valves. The filter housing is fluidly coupled to an upstream portion of a reductant line and a downstream portion of the reductant line. The filter media is positioned in the filter housing. The one or more valves are selectively movable from a first position to a second position. In the first position, the one or more valves permit fluid to flow along a first fluid flow path from the upstream portion of the reductant line, through the filter media, to the downstream portion of the reductant line. In the second position, the one or more valves prevent fluid from flowing along the first fluid flow path through the filter media.

The present invention refers to a system and a method of filtering a refrigerant for a fluid injection system of an internal combustion engine, the refrigerant being preferably water, by supplying tap water or any other source of water available in the vehicle, such as air conditioning and exhaust condensates, wherein such water must be clean, demineralized, deionized and mainly promptly available to be delivered to the water injection system at the instant the driver actuates the accelerator pedal to demand more power from the bi-fuel engine running on gasoline.

A filtration system and method of using the same. The method comprises the steps of guiding, by alignment rail and mating boss, a filter cartridge into a manifold housing; aligning a filter magnet with a corresponding manifold magnet; rotating, by attractive magnetic forces, the manifold magnet upon rotation of the filter cartridge into an installed position; and actuating, by attractive magnetic forces, a manifold valve.

The control valve device includes a valve body having a stacked first body and second body. The first body includes a first oil passage, a filter covering an opening of the first oil passage, a first accommodating part recessed from a first boundary surface surrounding the opening of the first oil passage, and two second accommodating parts which are more recessed than the first accommodating part from the first boundary surface on outer sides of opposite end portions of the first accommodating part. The filter includes a filter part covering the opening of the first oil passage and two leaf springs respectively disposed in the two second accommodating parts, and an end portion of each of the leaf springs comes into contact with a first wall surface of the second accommodating parts facing the first oil passage side.

A pressure control device includes a body having a groove-shaped flow path including a groove part and a widened part, and a filter unit capturing foreign matters mixed in a fluid which passes through the groove-shaped flow path; the filter unit having a frame body including a through hole part and a filter member in a planar plate shape disposed with respect to the through hole part, and the filter unit being accommodated in the widened part. The frame body has: a first part having a first shape, a second part having a second shape smaller than the first shape, and a step part located at a boundary part between the first part and the second part The second part has a storage part provided in a penetrating manner on a bottom part side of the groove-shaped flow path and storing the captured foreign matters.
