A cover for a filter system for filtering a fluid has a fluid channel arranged at an inner side of the cover. The cover has a rim and at least one opening arranged in the rim to allow the fluid to pass through, wherein the opening is connected in fluid communication with the fluid channel. The fluid channel is connected in fluid communication with the interior of a filter element of the filter system. A seal for the cover has a first sealing ring and a second sealing connected to each other by flanks. The filter system has a housing with a housing part that is closable by the cover. A filter element is exchangeably arranged in the housing, and the fluid channel of the cover is connected in fluid communication to the interior of the filter element.

Filter assemblies, components therefor, and features thereof are described. Also described are methods of assembly and use. In depicted examples, the air cleaner assemblies and components use advantageous housing seal features. Also, methods of assembly and use are described.

A cabin air filter is provided with a filter medium and a filter element frame that frames the filter medium and is configured to attach the cabin air filter to a filter housing. The filter element frame is provided with at least one engagement element configured to engage pivotably at least one receiving element of the filter housing for pivoting the cabin air filter relative to the filter housing about a pivot axis. The filter element frame also has at least one snap hook that locks with at least one locking element of the filter housing for blocking pivoting of the cabin air filter relative to the filter housing at least in a first direction about the pivot axis.

A round filter element has a filter medium body with a wall to be flowed through by a fluid to be purified in a radial direction relative to a longitudinal axis of the filter medium body. A circumferentially extending seal carrier is arranged at or adjacent to an end face of the filter medium body. A sealing element is supported at the seal carrier adjacent to a radial outer side of the filter medium body. A positioning element extends into the filter medium body and engages with form fit a correlated housing-associated counter positioning element of a filter housing when the round filter element is installed in the filter housing. The seal carrier separates flow-tightly a raw side of the round filter element from a clean side of the round filter element when the round filter element is installed in the filter housing.

A filter element for filtering a fluid has a filter bellows arranged about the longitudinal axis of the filter element and enclosing an interior of the filter element. A first end disk open toward the interior is arranged at a first end of the filter element. A second closed end disk is arranged at a second end of the filter element. The second end is oppositely positioned to the first end in a direction of the longitudinal axis. The filter bellows has folds with radially outer fold edges positioned on an outer circumferential surface of the filter bellows. The filter bellows is provided with a notch at least at one of the first and second ends. The notch has an axial length in the direction of the longitudinal axis. The axial length is shorter than a length extension of the filter bellows in the direction of the longitudinal axis.

A filter element for a filter system for filtering a fluid has a filter bellows arranged about a longitudinal axis and enclosing an interior of the filter element. An end disk that is provided with an opening to the interior of the filter element is arranged at the filter bellows. The end disk has a bead that is arranged at the opening to the interior and partially surrounds the opening to the interior. The bead projects outwardly in a direction of the longitudinal axis. The filter system has a housing with a cover and a housing part closable by the cover. The filter element can be exchangeably arranged in the housing. The bead, in a mounted state of the filter element in the housing, engages a complementary receptacle arranged at an inner side of the cover.

A round filter element has a filter medium body flowed through by a fluid to be purified in radial direction relative to a longitudinal axis of the filter medium body. The filter medium body radially encloses an inwardly positioned flow space. An end disk is arranged at an end face of the filter medium body. The end disk has a shaped body axially delimiting the inwardly positioned flow space. The end disk has a sealing disk arranged externally at the shaped body, wherein the sealing disk covers the shaped body and the end face of the filter medium body. The shaped body has a receiving depression that is flow-tight relative to the inwardly positioned flow space. The sealing disk has a receiving opening aligned with the receiving depression of the shaped body. The receiving depression and the receiving opening can receive a support element of a filter housing.

A fluid filter element for circular locking engagement with a filter support, the fluid filter element including a filter medium arranged about a longitudinal axis, first and second end caps arranged at opposite cylindrical ends of the filter medium and sealed thereto, at least one locking protrusion located on the second end cap for rotatably locking the fluid filter to the filter support and at least one releasable retainer located on the second end cap and associated with at the at least one locking protrusion for retaining the at least one locking protrusion in locking engagement with the filter support and being operative, when released, to allow rotatable unlocking of the fluid filter element.

A filter element for a filter system for filtering a fluid has a filter bellows arranged about a longitudinal axis and enclosing an interior of the filter element. A closed end disk is arranged at a first end of the filter element and closes off the interior of the filter element. An end disk with an opening to the interior of the filter element is arranged at a second end of the filter element oppositely positioned to the first end viewed in direction of the longitudinal axis. The closed end disk has a hollow pin projecting into the interior of the filter element in direction of the longitudinal axis. The filter system has a housing for receiving the exchangeable filter element with a housing part closable by a cover. The hollow pin of the closed end disk can be pushed onto a pin of the housing part.

A filter element is provided for being removably arranged in a filter housing. The filter element includes a tubular filter material body, and a first end panel at a first end of the filter element in an axial direction of the filter element. The first end panel includes an opening to an interior of the filter material body. The first end panel includes a generally flat external surface, which is inclined in relation to a plane perpendicular to the axial direction of the filter element. A filter housing including a compartment for receiving such a filter element is also provided. A filter system including such a filter element and filter housing, and an internal combustion engine system and a vehicle including such a filter system are also provided.
