An object of the present invention is to provide a honeycomb filter capable of preventing depth filtration and achieving a combination of high collection efficiency and low pressure loss. The honeycomb filter of the present invention comprises a ceramic honeycomb substrate in which a multitude of cells through which a fluid flows are disposed in parallel in a longitudinal direction and are separated by cell walls, each cell being sealed at an end section at either the fluid inlet side or the fluid outlet side, and a filter layer which, among the surfaces of the cell walls, is formed on the surface of the cell walls of those cells in which the end section at the fluid inlet side is open and the end section at the fluid outlet side is sealed, wherein the filter layer is composed of a plurality of spherical ceramic particles, and crosslinking bodies which bind the spherical ceramic particles to each other by crosslinking the spherical ceramic particles, and the spherical ceramic particles and the crosslinking bodies form a three-dimensional network structure.

The disclosure provides a multi-function ductless enclosure apparatus. Its main purpose is to be used as a paint spray booth to capture excess paint, pass it through filters with the use of a fan and then exhaust the ensuing clean air out, back into the room air. This booth is foldable and light weight and can be moved to a different location in minutes. It can also be transformed to serve many other applications with the use of a few accessories thereby saving the end user from having to have several booths (saving counter space) and also saving him from having to spend a lot of money buying many booths for different applications.

A smoking pipe has a a combustion bowl, a mouthpiece, and an inhalation conduit. An inhalation check valve is connected to the inhalation conduit and positioned between the bowl and the mouthpiece, oriented to pass smoke of combustion in one direction from the bowl to the mouthpiece. An exhalation check valve is positioned between the mouthpiece and the atmosphere, and is oriented to pass exhalation in one direction from the mouthpiece to the atmosphere. A body is partially fillable to retain water, and the inhalation conduit passes from the bowl into the body and extends to an upper area inside the body, and then turns to extend towards a lower area inside the body, terminating in an open end. The inhalation conduit has a second portion that has an opening in the upper inner area and extends to the inhalation check valve.

An object in mounting an engine on an exhaust gas purifier is to ensure the coupling strength between the engine and a hanger and to balance the whole engine at the time of lifting while avoiding interference between the exhaust gas purifier and the hanger. An engine apparatus includes an exhaust gas purifier configured to purify exhaust gas from the engine. The exhaust gas purifier is mounted on the engine through a mounting base. A lower end of the hanger, which is configured to lift the engine, is fastened to the mounting base. An upper end of the hanger is extended along an outer periphery of the exhaust gas purifier.
