The air purification filter includes a filtering layer (30) configured as a dielectric which collects minute particles, a pair of electrode layers (50, 70) laminated on opposite sides of the filtering layer (30), respectively, and configured to receive power so as to generate polarization through an electric field in the filtering layer (30), and a connection module (100, 100′). The connection module (100, 100′) is coupled to at least any one of the opposite ends of the pair of electrode layers (50, 70) such that the coupled portion of the connection module is insulated from an outside thereof and is electrically connected with an external power supply part.

A filter element for an air filter of a motor vehicle includes a frame part which surrounds a filter material of the filter element. The filter element is insertable into a receiving space which is provided by a housing of the air filter. The filter element has a holding element which is movable from an initial position into a functional position by inserting the filter element in the receiving space. In the functional position, a fastening element can be fixed to the holding element. The fastening element is configured for securing a cover element, which is used to close an insertion opening of the receiving space, to the housing.

A system (10) for treating the air in the cabin of a vehicle includes a casing, an air conditioning apparatus, a filtering device (16) an RFID tag (28) containing identification information about the filtering device (16). An RFID reader (30) co-operates with the RFID tag (28) to read the identification information. A control unit (32) is connected to the RFID reader (30) and configured for receiving the identification information and for executing predefined operations as a function of the identification information.

A filter element has a filter medium annularly surrounding a longitudinal axis of the filter element. The filter medium can be flowed through radially from an exterior to an interior and has a plurality of folds. A first end disk is arranged at a first end face of the filter element. A primary air passage and a secondary air passage are provided. The filter medium has an axial recess at the first end face. The first end disk has a channel forming the secondary air passage and extending in the axial recess. The plurality of folds include first folds in a region of the recess and second folds away from the recess. An axial length of the first folds is reduced relative to an axial length of the second folds. An air filter with such filter element and an assembly method for the air filter are provided.

Proposed is an air purifying filter. The air purifying filter includes a filtering layer (30) configured as a dielectric which collects minute particles, a first electrode layer (50) laminated on a side of the filtering layer (30) and comprising insulated wires (51) to which power is able to be applied, and a second electrode layer (70) laminated on a side of the filtering layer (30) opposite to the side of the first electrode layer and comprising a conductive material such that a polarity opposite to a polarity of the first electrode layer (50) is applied to the second electrode layer or the second electrode layer is grounded.

A method for manufacturing a filter (1) for gas masks includes providing a flat paper and folding the paper into a pleated preform. The filter element (2) is separated from the pleated preform (6) and is inserted into a housing (3). The inserted filter element (2) is connected to the housing (3) at least at some points. This filter elements (2) may have a polygonal outer contour, upon separating the element from the pleated filter preform (6). A foam and/or an adhesive is applied to an outer edge of the filter element (2), arranged on the circumference of the filter element, for an at least partial sealing of an edge (5). This establishes a connection to the housing (3) in at least some sections.

A docking station for a dust collection box comprising: a housing; a socket formed by the housing configured to receive a dust collection box of a dust extractor; first and second apertures formed through a wall of the housing which aligns with air outlet and inlet apertures of a dust collection box when the dust collection box is mounted within the socket; a connector connectable to a vacuum source; and a dust channel mounted inside of the housing, which provides a passageway between the second aperture and the connector. The docking station may further include an air vent formed through a wall of the housing to allow air surrounding the housing to enter a cavity formed inside of the housing, where the first aperture is connected to the cavity in the housing to allow air in the cavity to exit the housing through the first aperture.

Thermoplastic bicomponent binder fiber can be combined with other media, fibers and other filtration components to form a thermally bonded filtration media. The filtration media can be used in filter units, such as breather caps. Such filter units can be placed in the stream of a mobile fluid and can remove a particulate and/or fluid mist load from the mobile stream. The unique combination of media fiber, bicomponent binder fiber and other filtration additives and components provide a filtration media having unique properties in filtration applications.

A filtering device, including: a filter layer, where the filter layer is enclosed into a cylindrical structure; a support frame includes at least one support ring arranged at the end of the cylindrical structure, the support ring is provided with a plurality of elastic connection portions and a plurality of support ring segments, and two adjacent support ring segments are connected by using one elastic connection portion; the elastic connection portion is capable of being elastically deformed when subjected to an external force and capable of restoring by using its own elastic force; when the elastic connection portion is elastically deformed, an angle at which the end portions of the two adjacent support ring segments are connected changes, which drives a shape of the filter layer to change synchronously; when the elastic connection portion restores, the angle changes, which drives the filter layer to restore to an original shape.
