An exchangeable filter element of a liquid filter has a filter medium surrounding circumferentially a virtual axis of the filter element. A discharge closure element is arranged eccentrically at an axial end face of the filter element. The discharge closure element closes off a discharge opening of a discharge channel of the filter housing when the filter element is installed in the filter housing. The discharge channel serves to empty liquid from the filter when the filter element is removed. The discharge closure element has a limited circumferential expansion with respect to the virtual axis. The discharge closure element has a closure surface arranged at an axial end face of the discharge closure element. The closure surface is at least partially axially oriented. The closure surface rests so as to seal axially at a sealing section of the filter housing that surrounds the discharge opening of the filter housing.

A household water purifier and a filter quick knockdown mechanism thereof are provided. The water purifier includes the filter quick knockdown mechanism, and a housing. The filter included in the filter quick knockdown mechanism and the housing are connected via the filter quick knockdown mechanism. A lower end surface of the filter is movably connected with a pressing plate, and the pressing plate is configured to lift the filter and press the pressing lid of the filter quick knockdown mechanism upon disassembling the filter. The filter quick knockdown mechanism includes a first positioning mechanism and a locking mechanism. When the first positioning mechanism provided on the filter is configured to be mated with a second positioning mechanism provided on the housing, the filter is coupled with the housing via the locking mechanism.

A filter device having a filter housing (14), in which a replaceable filter element (18) is accommodated, and having a filter head (26) for securing the filter housing (14) to a third component, such as a tank wall (10) of a storage tank, is characterized in that the filter housing (14) is mounted on the filter head (26) in an articulated manner by means of a bearing (28) providing more than one degree of freedom.

A fuel water separator filter is configured as a filter-in-filter construction with multiple water separating layers to separate water from the fuel. The fuel water separator filter is configured for use on a suction side of a fuel pump, and includes a neck with a radially outward facing seal that in use seals with the filter housing. The filter housing is formed with an isolated water sump that in use is isolated from water that is stripped from the fuel by the first stage of the outer filter.

A water separating screen for a filter element in a liquid filter, the water separating screen including: a screen fabric having end faces; and a fabric carrier; a screen fabric arranged on the fabric carrier and encircling a longitudinal axis, the screen fabric having axial end faces, the longitudinal axis defining an axial direction; wherein the fabric carrier in an area between the end faces exclusively has longitudinal struts, which at least substantially extend in the direction of the longitudinal axis and which are elastic in a radial direction.

A filter cartridge (1) is for a fluid filtration assembly (10). The filtration assembly (10) includes a bowl body (11) and a head body (12) having respectively a first and second collars (111, 121) to engage each other in rototranslation. The bowl body (11) has a filtration chamber (110) accessible through an access mouth (110′) delimited peripherally by the first collar (11) while the head body (12) has in the second collar (121) a slot (125). The filter cartridge (1) is housable in the bowl body (11) having a filter medium (2) and an end plate (3) to engage the first collar (111). The filter cartridge (1) is snap-blockable in the axial direction to the bowl body (11) by an active blocking member (31). The filter cartridge (1) includes an anti-rotation element (32) extending radially from the end plate (3) for being housed in the slot (125).

Referring to the figures generally, a rotating filter cartridge includes a first endcap, a second endcap, and a filter media. The filter media is positioned between the first endcap and the second endcap. The filter media creates a mechanical seal between at least one of the first endcap or the second endcap during rotation of the rotating filter cartridge without the use of a potting material. In at least one embodiment, the rotating filter cartridge further includes a body secured to the first endcap and the second endcap. At least one of the first endcap or the second endcap, and the body, may form a pocket that radially pinches the filter media to form the mechanical seal.

A filter insert, a sample vial incorporating a filter insert, a method of using a sample vial containing a filter insert for chemical analysis, and a sample vial kit including a filter insert. The filter insert includes a cylindrical body having a proximal end, a protrusion extending radially from the proximal end of the cylindrical body and configured to set on the open end of a sample vial, a distal end, a cavity extending longitudinally through the cylindrical body from the proximal end to the distal end, and a filter assembly coupled with the distal end of the cylindrical body.

A filter module for a filter assembly has a primary filter element and a secondary filter element. A water separation interface is provided for discharging water, which has been separated by the primary filter element from a fluid to be filtered, from the primary filter element. A primary filter interface is provided for discharging fluid, which has been filtered by the primary filter element, from the primary filter element. A secondary filter interface is provided for discharging the fluid, which has been filtered by the secondary filter element, from the secondary filter element. The water separation interface, the primary filter interface, and the secondary filter interface are arranged coaxially to a symmetry axis of the filter module. The water separation interface, the primary filter interface, and the secondary filter interface are each designed for outflow of material flows in axial direction of the symmetry axis.

Provided is a filter element comprising a filter element body having a cavity, a water inlet and a water outlet, an end cap, and a perforated partition, and the perforated partition is configured to divide the filter element body into a first chamber filled with an adsorption filter material and a second chamber filled with an ion exchange filter materials. In the present disclosure, the filter element is divided into two stages, and the primary filter material and the softening filter material are filled separately, and functions of both filtration and descaling are realized, addressing the issues blocking of water and reduced water flow in the coffee machine using a PP/PE filter element. Meanwhile, reduction in water flow caused by the mixing of the filter materials and the caking of the filter material is also solved.
