A device for filtering and settling entrained particles from a gas feed stream, the device comprising a cylindrical v-wire filter element to filter the entrained particles, a cap located above the v-wire filter element comprising an outer surface, an under surface, and a downward rim attached to a perimeter of the under surface, and an open annulus area located between and in fluid communication with an open top portion of the v-wire filter element and the under surface of the cap.

A clothes treatment apparatus comprises: a cabinet forming a treatment space for storing clothes; a filter module having a filter portion for filtering out dust from air; an air flow path having a plurality of preset flow paths for directing air to be discharged into the treatment space; a fan for moving the air in the air flow path; a single valve disposed on the air flow path, that changes the air flow path by rotating around a predetermined rotational axis; a valve actuating module for rotating the valve; and a control part for controlling the angle of rotation of the valve to select one of the plurality of flow paths. The plurality of flow paths comprise: at least one bypass flow path for directing the air to bypass the filter portion; and at least one filtering flow path for directing the air to pass through the filter portion.

A filter system for adsorbing an odor of a gas flow in an industrial process includes a filter module (1) with a layer (11) containing active adsorbent (3). The layer (11) includes a plurality of active adsorbent containing permeable bags (2) arranged in close proximity to each other.

An apparatus for safely enabling air filtering by temporarily joining a box fan to a replaceable air filter includes: (a) an air chamber frame with a rear portion that is configured to accommodate the replaceable air filter, (b) a frame stabilizing means that includes a front mounting platform which is configured to temporarily hold a box fan that is oriented to pull air through the filter, (c) a gasket that is configured to attach to the frame's front surface and minimize air flow around the gasket and into the frame, (d) a vent door located in the frame and configured to open to allow air to enter the frame's interior region when the filter is clogged, (e) an alarm mechanism attached to the vent door and configured to provide a signal when the door is been opened, and (f) an alarm device configured to receive the alarm mechanism's signal and provide an alarm that the air filter needs replacement.

A dust collector including a body with an intake portion and an exhaust portion includes a filter, a filter support that supports the filter, a motor case protruding from an inner surface of the body, and a vibration motor accommodated in the motor case. The body accommodates the filter support. A portion on the tip side of the motor case is at a position where it is allowed to come into contact with the filter support when the vibration motor is driven.

Disclosed are an air intake mechanism and a negative pressure system. The air intake mechanism includes a first air intake end, a first air outlet end, and a first passage provided between the first air intake end and the first air outlet end, a first air driving unit is provided on the first passage, a first filter assembly is provided between the first air intake end and the first air driving unit, and a second filter assembly is provided between the first air outlet end and the first air driving unit.

A filter element including a filter media, an end cap, and a baffle. The filter media is configured to be secured within a housing. The housing includes an inlet configured to accept a fluid for filtering and the filter media including a circumferential outer surface. The end cap is positioned at and coupled to one end of the filter media. The baffle is positioned relative to the filter media at a position such that, when the filter element is correctly installed within the housing, the baffle is proximate the inlet of the housing. The baffle extends around only a portion of the circumferential outer surface of the filter media in a radial direction.

A filter element for filtering a fluid has a frame and at least one filter bellows arranged in the frame and provided with a first areal inflow surface for a first fluid flow and at least one second inflow surface for a second fluid flow separate from the first fluid flow. The second inflow surface is separate from the first areal inflow surface. A flow channel is provided to guide the second fluid flow and has a raw-side flow channel section arranged within the frame. A filter system provided with a filter housing is provided with such a filter element arranged exchangeably in the filter housing between a raw side and a clean side. The filter housing has a first inlet for the first fluid flow communicating with the first inflow surface and at least a second inlet for the second fluid flow communicating with the second inflow surface.

A filter element for filtering a fluid is provided with at least one filter bellows with a first areal inflow surface for a first fluid flow of the fluid and at least one second inflow surface for a second fluid flow of the fluid separate from the first fluid flow of the fluid. The at least one second inflow surface is separate from the first areal inflow surface. A flow channel section for the second fluid flow of the fluid is provided. At least one compensation element is arranged in the flow channel section for the second fluid flow of the fluid at a raw side of the filter element. A filter system with a filter housing is provided with such a filter element arranged exchangeably in the filter housing.
