The air filtration unit includes a filter element and a filter fan configured to move air through the filter element. The ceiling fan unit is operably connected to the air filtration unit to form the air filtration ceiling fan, and the air filtration ceiling fan is configured to attach to a ceiling.

A mask according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may adjust permeability thereof by including and using an air filter unit which is capable of expanding or contracting, in at least one direction, a filter for filtering particles contained in air passing through the mask by pores.

A food recycler can include a case having a case volume between 8.79 liters and 35 liters, a control system, a user interface in electrical communication with the control system, and a bucket being configured with a bucket volume, wherein a ratio of the bucket volume to the case volume is between 0.0717 and 0.2857. The recycler can include a motor in communication with the control system, the motor being configured adjacent at least in part to the bucket, a gearbox configured below the bucket and in mechanical communication with the motor, a filter system and a drying component configured to remove water from waste food items.

A filtration device may include an adapter, a filter element, and a housing. The adapter may include a collar having an upper rim and a lower rim, a plurality of locking tabs extending from the upper rim, and a plurality of snap members extending from the lower rim. The filter element may include a casing and a plurality of receptacles connected to and arranged around a first outer surface of the casing. The plurality of receptacles are configured to receive the plurality of locking tabs. The housing, which is configured to receive the filter element, includes a shell and a plurality of ramp members that are connected to a second outer surface of the shell. The plurality of ramp members are configure to engage the plurality of snap members.

An air cleaner assembly including a housing, a filter cartridge removably positioned within the inner opening of the housing, wherein the filter cartridge includes a media pack and a sealing member that includes a pinch seal portion spaced from an outer surface of the media pack and positionable within a housing channel of the housing when the filter cartridge is positioned within the inner opening of the housing, and a precleaner assembly positionable between the filter cartridge and the inlet end of the housing, wherein the precleaner includes a base member having a lower edge, and an access cover removably attachable to an inlet end of the housing, wherein the precleaner assembly is sealable within the air cleaner assembly by pressing the lower edge of the base member against a top surface of the sealing member.

Air cleaner and preferred components for an air cleaner are provided. In certain arrangements, a band is mounted to the media pack, surrounding the media. Also, the cartridge is non-circular and includes a seal thereon.

A filter assembly and a drying apparatus having the filter assembly are proposed. The filter assembly (180) may purify air introduced into the main body (100) of the drying apparatus. The filter assembly (180) may be protruded by a predetermined distance to a side surface of the main body (100) by the moving plate (190). The filter frame (182) protruded by the moving plate (190) may be removed from the moving plate (190) to perform maintenance of filters (184, 186, 188).

The facility includes a first connection mechanism connecting a filter unit to a floor discharging section to establish communication between an opening portion of the floor discharging section and an upper face opening portion of the filter unit and a second connection mechanism connecting the filter unit to an exhausting chamber to establish communication between an opening portion of the exhausting chamber and a side face opening portion of the filter unit. The first connection mechanism includes a seal portion that comes into contact with an entire circumference of an outer face of an upper end portion of the filter unit, thus preventing leakage of exhaust gas. The seal portion includes an introducing portion for introducing the upper end portion of the filter unit to the seal portion from a horizontal direction.

Disclosed herein is an air cleaner disposed in an indoor space. An air cleaner according to an embodiment includes a blowing device including a suction port and a discharge port, a fan motor configured to generate an air flow, a purifying unit installed inside the blowing device to purify air, a driving portion configured to move the air cleaner, a communication unit configured to communicate with a moving agent moving in the indoor space, and a processor configured to receive status information including at least one of air quality information and dust occurrence information collected by the moving agent, determine a specific zone in which air purification is to be performed using the status information collected by the moving agent, and perform air purification in the specific zone.
