An air cleaning/purifying system for elevators includes: a housing, one or more fans, three filters, and a lamp. The housing, made of a chromium-nickel-molybdenum austenitic stainless steel, is formed of one or more walls that create an air tight enclosure, except for one or more air inlet openings proximate to each fan, and a plurality of air outlet openings. The three filters are positioned between the inlet and outlet openings, and include: an active carbon filter to absorb odors; a HEPA filter formed of a fiber mesh that traps particles; and a filter formed of a selective metallic compound (e.g., titanium dioxide) that emits hydroxyl radicals when illuminated by light from the lamp. The fan(s) is/are mounted to the housing and positioned to draw/direct air into the air tight enclosure through the inlet opening(s) and direct it at the filters, in the direction of the outlet openings.

An air cleaner assembly is disclosed. In one aspect, the air cleaner assembly includes a housing defining an inlet and an outlet, and including an access opening between the inlet and outlet. The air cleaner also includes a filter cartridge received within the housing and covering the access opening. The air cleaner also includes a lock mechanism. The lock mechanism is movable between an unlocked position in which the filter cartridge can be installed and removed from the housing and a locked position in which the filter cartridge is secured within the housing. The filter cartridge and lock mechanism include interacting features allowing the lock mechanism to be moved from the unlocked position to the locked position only when the filter cartridge is installed within the housing.

A filter system for a vacuum cleaner is disclosed. The system comprises a housing reconfigurable relative to a bin between an operative configuration in which the housing is disposed upon the bin so that dirt separated from dirt-laden air can collect in the bin, and an idle configuration in which the housing is removed from the bin. The housing comprises an inlet for receiving dirt-laden air into the housing, an outlet via which cleaned air can exit the housing. The system further comprises first filtering means and second filtering means disposed within the housing, the first filtering means being positioned upstream of the second filtering means. The first and second filtering means comprises a filter medium configured to separate dirt from the dirt-laden air passing from the inlet to the outlet through the filter medium. The system further comprises filter cleaning means for removing dirt from the filter medium of the first filtering means when the housing is configured at least in the operative configuration.

A method for controlling display of information on a display device includes storing information corresponding to a broadcast program guide. When a signal is received based on activation of a specific key while the first broadcast program is displayed on a screen, information on the first broadcast program and information on a second program to be broadcast after the first broadcast program is detected. The first broadcast program is then displayed in a first region of the screen simultaneously with the information on the first broadcast program and the information on the second broadcast program in a second region of the screen.

A system, method, and apparatus for ameliorating deposits in selective catalytic reduction systems for the reduction of nitrogen oxide emissions in steam methane reformers. The system includes positioning a dual stage refractory particulate (RP) filter placed in an upstream airflow from a Selective Catalytic Reduction System (SCRS). The first stage is formed of a perforated steel plate with a second stage formed of a wire mesh screen. The system may employ air cannons to clean each of the first stage and the second stages.

The multifunctional respiratory mask according to the invention for separating fine dust, pollen and/or viruses from breathing air has a shielding device that forms an outer and/or inner air chamber in the face region of a wearer and shields it from the environment against fine dust, pollen and/or viruses. In addition, a forehead bracket is provided having a housing arranged in the region of the forehead of the wearer and having two holding brackets, each formed laterally thereon, in the manner of eyeglass temples. A connecting line connects the housing with the air chamber closest to the face of the wearer, wherein at least one blower integrated into an air duct, a power supply, and a textile filter element are arranged in the housing. In addition, a metal plate filter element is arranged in the air duct, which forms a filter unit with the textile filter element, wherein the metal plate filter element and the textile filter element are arranged to be individually exchangeable in the housing and the power supply applies a voltage to the metal plate filter element by means of a switch or disconnects it therefrom and/or, when switched on, heats it to a temperature of at least 60° C.

Air cleaner assemblies, components, features and methods of assembly and use are described. Example air cleaner assemblies are depicted and described in which a main filter cartridge sealing surface is recessed from an open end of a housing body. An access cover of the housing is configured with a portion extending inwardly to engage a main filter cartridge portion and bias it against the main filter cartridge sealing surface. In selected assemblies, the portion of the access cover extending inwardly toward the main filter cartridge, is a precleaner having flow separator tubes therein.

A vehicle cabin filter assembly comprising a housing and a plurality of filter modules mounted to the housing. The filter modules comprise a first filter module, a second filter module positioned downstream of the first filter module, and a third filter module positioned downstream of the second filter module. Each filter module comprises a particulate filter element, and at least one of the filter modules comprises a gas filter element. The second filter module has a separation efficiency higher than the first filter module, and the third filter module has a separation efficiency higher than the second filter module.

A vehicle cabin filter assembly comprising a filter module and a further filter module positioned downstream of the filter module. Each filter module comprises one or more filter elements. The filter elements of the filter module are pleated at a first pleat pitch and comprise a gas filter element. The filter elements of the further filter module are pleated at a second pleat pitch and comprise a particulate filter element. And the second pleat pitch is smaller than the first pleat pitch.

Air filtration assemblies configured to provide instant detection of particles and/or improve particle filtration are disclosed. The assemblies may include an air inlet duct in fluid communication with a compressor of a gas turbine system. The air inlet duct may include an inlet for receiving intake air including intake air particles, and an outlet positioned opposite the inlet. The assembly may also include a plurality of vane filters at the inlet, an array of fabric filters positioned in the air inlet duct, downstream of the vane filters, and a silencer assembly positioned in the air inlet duct, downstream of the fabric filters. Additionally, the assembly may include an electrostatic component positioned in the air inlet duct, downstream of the fabric filters. The electrostatic component may be configured to charge the intake air particles that pass through the vane filters and the fabric filters.
