An air filter device of an industrial machine in which an air filter is arranged in a filtered portion of the industrial machine is provided, the air filter device includes: a first operation unit which transports the long air filter toward the filtered portion; a second operation unit which collects the air filter transported from the first operation unit and used in the filtered portion; and a control unit which controls the drive of the first operation unit and the second operation unit and the control unit includes a first determination unit which determines whether or not the air filter in the first operation unit is about to run out or runs out, and outputs, when the first determination unit determines that the air filter is about to run out or runs out, a signal indicating that the air filter needs to be replaced.

An apparatus and a method are provided for an air filter cleaning wand for flushing contaminants from an intake air filter of an automobile engine. The air filter cleaning wand comprises a proximal flange, a conduit, and a distal end portion. The proximal flange is configured to receive a nozzle of a water hose. An interior of the conduit is in fluid communication with the proximal flange. The distal end portion comprises a plurality of longitudinally aligned vents in fluid communication with the interior of the conduit. Upon passing water through the water hose and into the conduit, pressurized water streams exit the vents along the distal end portion so as to flush contaminants from the air filter. The air filter cleaning wand advantageously is comprised of a material which is sufficiently durable and temperature resistant to retain its configuration during operation when coupled to pressurized water sources.

A washing and drying machine includes a cabinet, a tub disposed inside the cabinet, a condensation duct connected to the tub to condense moisture in air introduced from the inside of the tub, and a drying duct connected to the condensation duct to heat the air introduced into the condensation duct and supply the heated air back into the tub, wherein the condensation duct includes a housing, an inlet disposed at a lower portion of the housing and connected to the tub, an outlet disposed at an upper portion of the housing and connected to the drying duct, a supply nozzle configured to supply condensation water inside the housing, and a rib disposed adjacent to the inlet, wherein the rib includes a gathering portion configured to collect at least a part of the condensation water, and wherein the condensation water collected in the gathering portion falls to the inlet side.

An air cleaner includes a housing, a fan, one or more filtering elements, and a washing system. The housing is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The fan is mounted in the housing at a location corresponding to the air outlet and rotated by a motor. The filtering elements are arranged in the housing below the air outlet while above the air inlet. The washing system includes a drain pan, at least one sprinkler, a water tank and a pump, is located in the housing. The drain pan is provided with a drainage port and obliquely arranged below the filtering elements. The sprinkler is arranged above the filtering elements. The water tank and the pump are mounted at a bottom of the housing. An injection pipe is connected to the water tank and extends out of the housing for filling the water tank with water and/or detergent.

A method of cleaning a complex powder transfer system including providing a powder transfer system having a washing fluid source, a spray device valve in fluid communication with the washing fluid source, a backflush valve in fluid communication with the washing fluid source, a receiving device having an upper chamber, a lower chamber, and a membrane filter disposed between the upper and lower chambers. The method includes opening the backflush valve to initiate a backflush cycle, running the backflush cycle to wash the upper chamber with a fluid, and closing the backflush valve after the backflush cycle completes. The method includes opening the spray device valve to initiate a spray device cycle, running the spray device cycle to wash the lower chamber with fluid, and closing the spray device valve after the spray device cycle completes. The method includes opening a pressure valve to provide PCA to the receiving container.

The present disclosure relates generally to air intake filter assemblies, and more particularly to air intake assemblies for an outdoor portion of a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system. In an embodiment, a filter assembly is configured to filter an airflow entering an air intake of a HVAC unit. The filter assembly includes a first layer of a first coarse mesh, a second layer of a second coarse mesh, and a fine filter disposed between the first layer and the second layer. Additionally, the fine filter includes an upper level and a lower level with respect to the airflow, and wherein the lower level facilitates accumulation of fine debris captured from the airflow entering the air intake of the HVAC unit.

The present disclosure relates generally to air intake filter assemblies, and more particularly to air intake assemblies for an outdoor portion of a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system. In an embodiment, a filter assembly is configured to filter an airflow entering an air intake of a HVAC unit. The filter assembly includes a support structure and a plurality of filter slats, each having a fine filtration material, each disposed within the support structure, and wherein the plurality of filter slats is configured in a louvered relationship and actuated between a closed configuration through which the airflow passes and an open configuration through which the airflow passes.

A blood clot removal device for removing blood clots from the vascular system of a patient is implantable in the patient's body. The blood clot removal device comprises a blood flow passageway, a filter provided in the blood flow passageway for filtering blood clots, and a cleaning device for cleaning the filter. By means of such blood clot removal device and system, the risk of blood clots reaching sensitive areas of the patient's body, such as the brain, is reduced.

A pollution control system for removing particle and gas phase pollutants in a waste airstream exhausted from commercial cooking operations may include a plurality of filters arranged within a housing for filtering particle and gas phase pollutants in the waste airstream. Various ones of the filters may be composed of a variety of different materials, and ozone may be provided within the housing to assist with removal of the pollutants. In some examples, a wash mechanism may be included to wash surfaces of a filter to remove grease therefrom. In some examples, the system may further include means to spray droplets (such as in a fog or mist form) into the waste airstream to condense a portion of gas phase pollutants into condensed particles.
