A water filter device for filtering water for supply, consists of an outer housing, a general water inlet through the housing, a mechanical filter within the housing, a carbon filter within the housing and a general water outlet through the housing, the filter device providing a flow path from the general water inlet, through the mechanical filter and the carbon filter to the general water outlet. The water filter device further includes a secondary water inlet through the housing between the mechanical filter and the carbon filter, to provide a second flow path from the secondary water inlet through the carbon filter to the general water outlet, the second flow path thus bypassing the mechanical filter.

A removable and replaceable end cap that selectively lockingly engages a seat ring of a filter housing. The end cap may include a flange that compresses a gasket member between the end cap and the seat ring to form a fluid tight seal therebetween. The end cap may include cam locking grooves that may each receive insertion of a protrusion of the seat ring, and which are structured for at least rotational displacement about the received protrusion as the end cap is rotated between locked and unlocked positions relative to the seat ring. The end cap may also include an opening that accommodates the passage of a fluid to a filter element. The filter element, which may be coupled to the end cap, may be adapted to remove particulate or contaminate from the received fluid.

An improved serviceable oil filter assembly is provided. The oil filter assembly includes a first end cap, a second end cap, a retainer element, and a cylindrical filter element. The first end cap defines a dirty oil inlet and a clean oil outlet. The second end cap includes a threaded collar for attachment to a threaded sidewall of the first endcap. The retainer element secures the cylindrical filter element within an interior volume of the oil filter assembly. The cylindrical filter element functions in combination with the retainer element to divide the interior volume of the serviceable oil filter assembly into a dirty oil chamber in fluid communication with the dirty oil inlet and a clean oil chamber in fluid communication with the clean oil outlet.

A rod having a substantially-cylindrical shape with both ends being covered is provided to a lid body, which covers an upper end surface of a case having a bottomed substantially-cylindrical shape, the rod protruding in the case. A first hole is formed in a portion of a side surface of the rod, which is exposed to the inside of the case. Further, an air vent pit (passage) is formed in the lid body, and a second hole is formed in a portion of the side surface of the rod, which is exposed to the inside of the air vent pit. A moving member moves along the rod from a first position at which the moving member does not cover the first hole and a second position at which the moving member covers the first hole.

A filter assembly includes a manifold having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, a filter housing having a filter medium provided therein, the filter medium defining an inner filter chamber and defining an outer filter chamber between the filter medium and the filter housing, the filter housing being removably attached to the manifold. The filter assembly includes a valve assembly mounted inside the manifold, and a by-pass channel defined inside the manifold between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. The valve assembly includes a valve body, a by-pass valve system, and a shut off valve system. The by-pass valve system includes a by-pass valve piston having a piston body, and a by-pass valve spring arranged to move the by-pass valve piston. The shut off valve system includes a shut off valve piston, and a shut off valve spring arranged to move the shut off valve piston.

A filter device with a removable termination part (81; 82) and a housing (3) that receives a replaceable filter element (5) having two end caps (25,47). Between the end caps, a filter material (12) extends. A positioning device (65) is arranged between the termination part (81; 82) and one end cap (47). The positioning device positions the filter element (5) within the housing (3), at least when viewed in the circumferential direction of the filter element, in interaction with at least one corresponding positioning element (71) of the end cap (47).

The present disclosure relates to a solenoid valve. The solenoid valve includes an armature provided inside the sleeve, a plunger configured to ascend and descend by the operation of the armature, an elastic member configured to press the plunger toward the armature, a magnet core having a through hole in which the plunger and the elastic member are provided and forming an inner space in a longitudinal direction, a valve seat provided in the inner space and on which an orifice penetrating in an axial direction is formed to be opened and closed by the plunger, and a plurality of flow resistance members each including a ring body interposed between the valve seat and the magnet core to generate a flow resistance of a braking fluid, and a slot formed at one side of the ring body to penetrate through the ring body so that the braking fluid passes therethrough.
