An air cleaner assembly includes a precleaner assembly. In one aspect, the precleaner assembly incudes a bypass arrangement that is operated to bypass a portion of air around the precleaner assembly. The bypass arrangement can be operated by a controller based on at least one input signal corresponding to one or more of a vehicle speed, a vehicle engine speed, a vehicle engine load, an operator input, a vehicle location, an air pressure drop across a filter element, an air pressure drop across the precleaner assembly, an acoustic level, a vibration level, a change or cleaning frequency of the filter element, a total number of filter element changes, an identity of the filter element, an identity of the engine, an identity of the vehicle, an air flow rate through the precleaner assembly or through the filter element, and a weather condition parameter identified through data received locally or from a weather service.

Combined use of air-oil separator and oil filter in systems requiring oil separation and filtration

The present invention relates to operation of air-oil separators and oil filters used in systems requiring oil separation and filtration on a single block. In other words, the present invention discloses an oil separation and filtration system having an air-oil separator and an oil filter.

Pollutant Capturer and Mobilizer
20240181379 · 2024-06-06 ·

Disclosed are a pollutant capturer and mobilizer and method of mobilizing a polluted gaseous substance from one location towards another location and capturing one or multiple types of polluting substances, such as CO.sub.2, from an atmospheric body of polluted gaseous substance or from exhaust of vehicles, chimneys, or stacks and thereby combat the negative health, environmental, and economic impacts of the of the polluting substances on communities. Wet or dry embodiments of the pollutant capturer and mobilizer utilize wet or dry pollutant capturing components, respectively, to capture one or multiple types of polluting substances from a body of polluted gaseous substance. Flow-establishing devices can be used to set the body of polluted gaseous substance in motion through the pollutant capturing component. The pollutant capturer and mobilizer may also be mounted on any type of vehicle, with or without using flow-establishing devices.

Air treatment system with pressure balance

A selective filtration system for an operator cab attached to an agricultural vehicle. A HVAC unit supplies conditioned air to an operator space selectively from a CAT 4 filter and a CAT 2 filter. A pressurization blower and two way valve controls flow from the CAT 4 filter to the HVAC unit. Control of flow or isolation of the CAT 2 filter is provided by pressure variations within the system. The CAT 4 filter and CAT 2 filter are isolated from the ambient when they are not in use by valves. A calibrated orifice enables positive pressurization to the CAT 2 filter to hold the valves closed.

Dust collector air inlet control system
10300421 · 2019-05-28 ·

A dust collector includes a pneumatic duct chamber and a bag house interconnected by a valve assembly to provide incremental and varying air pressure within the bag house to prevent damage to the filter bags disposed within the bag house due to sudden changes in air pressure.

Filter element, oil separator, and method for controlling prevailing pressure in crankcase ventilation system

The invention describes a filter element for an oil separator of a crankcase ventilation system in which a filter element is configured to separate oil from fluid and that has a covering surface extending parallel to a direction of flow, together with at least one cover element covering surface in at least some regions. An oil separator is taught having the filter element with at least one pressure control valve controlling crankcase pressure and has a valve closing body that operates in conjunction with a valve seat.

Torsional No Filter No Run System and Method

A filtration system comprises a housing and a shell housing removably coupled to the housing. A valve comprise a valve housing and a plunger. The plunger comprises a seal member structured to seal an opening in the valve housing. The plunger is axially movable between a closed position, in which the seal member seals the opening, and an open position, in which the seal member does not seal the opening, thereby permitting fluid to flow through the valve housing. A filter element comprises filter media and an endcap. The endcap comprises an alignment tab configured to rotationally secure the filter element with respect to the shell housing when the shell housing is received in the housing. The endcap comprise a valve interaction projection structured to transfer rotation of the filter element and the shell housing to the plunger during installation of the filter element.

GREASE FILTER, MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF AND COOKING DEVICE HAVING THE SAME

A grease filter, which includes a first channel having an inlet portion through which oil particles flow in, and a first guide unit configured to guide the oil particles flowing in through the inlet portion, and a second channel having an outlet portion through which the oil particles and air current flowing in through the inlet portion is discharged into the outside, and at least one second guide unit configured to guide the oil particles and air current to be discharged through the outlet portion. Here, the first channel and the second channel are detachably provided. The grease filter can be easily repaired and maintained, and collection efficiency can be improved due to such a configuration.
