Continuously Regenerable Scrubber
Regeneration of a fluid medium can be accomplished using a continuously regenerable scrubber, which, in its various embodiments, combines valve functions and sorbent material, such as amine beds, into one component, dramatically reducing size and mass of scrubber. Sorbent material beds rotate continuously past breathing gas vent loop ports for scrubbing CO.sub.2/H.sub.2O and then past vacuum ports for regenerating the sorbent material. Typically, a first fluid output is connected to a lower header fluid output and a second, sweeping fluid source connected to a lower header fluid input. A motor spins the substantially circular bed assembly at a predetermined speed which allows adsorption or absorption as well as desorption of materials flowing through the sorbent material.

Inline-Type Strainer
An inline-type strainer including a drain line and a screen configured to be attachable to and detachable from a housing is provided. A screen is supported to be attachable to and detachable from a lid. A lid coupling mechanism that couples a housing and the lid when the lid is attached to the housing is provided between a bottom surface of the housing facing the filter chamber and a lower end of the lid. A lower discharge flow path is formed in a lower coupling element on a side close to the housing constituting the lid coupling mechanism, and an upper discharge flow path is formed in the upper coupling element on a side close to the lid constituting the lid coupling mechanism. When the lid is attached to the housing, a coupling state is established between the upper and lower coupling elements, and the upper and lower discharge flow paths communicate with each other, and thus a drain line is constructed.
AIR CONDITIONER CONDENSATE FILTRATION DEVICE
A filtration device is configured to be connected to an existing condensate drain line of a heating, cooling, and ventilation system. The filtration device is configured to collect metal and other debris as the condensate moves through the device and prevents the condensate drain line from getting a clog. When a clog is present or other issues affect a level of condensate to rise in the device and stop from draining properly, the device is configured to shut off the heating, cooling, and ventilation system. Alternatively, the device is configured to provide an alternate pipe for drainage.
Retrofittable no filter no run filtration system
A retrofit no filter no run insert for existing filtration systems manufactured without a no filter no run engine integrity protection feature. The insert is beneficial for a manufacturer that initially does not require the benefit of a no filter no run engine integrity protection feature but later requires such a feature. The insert can be installed into the existing filtration system without any modification to the existing filtration system head. The no filter no run insert prevents the equipment supplied by the filtration system (e.g., an internal combustion engine) from being operated without a filter element. Further, the no filter no run insert prevents the equipment supplied by the filtration system from being operated with an unauthorized or non-genuine replacement filter element. The no filter no run insert safeguards against damage to downstream components of the filtration system and malfunctions of equipment in which the filtration system is used.

A sleeve, distinct from the housing, is secured to the exterior of the surrounding wall adjacent to the housing mouth and extending partially along the surrounding wall. The sleeve has an exterior and an interior. The exterior of the sleeve defines mounting threads constructed and arranged to removably mount with the filter head, when the filter arrangement is secured to the filter head. The interior of the sleeve is against the exterior of the surrounding wall. A first seal member is oriented against the sleeve to create a seal with a filter head, when the filter arrangement is secured to the filter head. A filter assembly includes a filter arrangement and a filter head. The filter arrangement is removably secured to the filter head by a threaded connection between the sleeve and the filter head. A system includes an engine utilizing a liquid and a filter assembly in fluid communication with the engine to filter the liquid. Methods of making filter arrangements include utilizing structures characterized above.
Fuel filter and mounting support of which the outlet is sealed by a valve in case of removal of a filter insert
The fuel filter has an outlet for the filtered fuel in a lower base portion of a casing, and a valve associated with the outlet. The filter insert has an internal space in which filtered fuel flows and that accommodates a central member capable of moving the valve to an open position when the insert is in an operational configuration in the casing. The valve is urged, by default, to a sealed position cutting off the flow to the outlet, for example by resilient return arranged between the bottom of the filter and a wall of an interface that guides the lower end of the central member. The central member and the filter insert form a removable unit, and it is therefore possible, typically by way of a cover/removable unit fastening, to automatically obtain the sealed position after opening the top cover.
