A fluid filter for a motor vehicle includes a filter housing and a filter cartridge which is fixable on the filter housing by rotating around a longitudinal axis of the filter cartridge. A holding element having a web is disposed on an end plate of the filter cartridge where the web protrudes from a wall of the holding element and where the wall is formed as a spiral shape. The web of the holding element is engageable behind a holding web of a counter bearing disposed on the filter housing that is spiral shaped. The holding web has an incline in a rotational direction in comparison to an abutment region of the filter housing on which a sealing element of the filter cartridge abuts.

A filter assembly includes a filter head and filter cartridge. The filter cartridge includes a housing and element. The housing includes a can with an open mouth. An interface ring is secured to the can adjacent to the open mouth. The outer ring surface is against the inner wall of the can. The ring wall is angled between the first and second ends greater than one degree and less than 6 degrees. Methods of filtering and making the housing are provided.

A brake disc arrangement has a brake disc and a brake caliper arranged at the brake disc. A brake caliper holder is provided. One or more bearing bolts hold the brake caliper at the brake caliper holder. A brake dust particle filter is provided with a filter housing. The filter housing of the brake dust particle filter is fixedly connected by the one or more bearing bolts to the brake caliper or to the brake caliper holder.

A filter that is retained in a shell housing by the use of a snap connection. The filter includes an endplate having snap features that interact with a groove in an inner portion of the shell housing. The groove may extend 360 degrees around an inner circumference of the shell housing. Accordingly, when the shell is unthreaded from the head service (e.g., during a filter replacement service), the shell only needs to be displaced the length of the inner radial seal interface between the shell and the head, not the entire length of the filter media thereby minimizing the stroke length needed to service the filter assembly.

A filter assembly for use with a surgical suction tool for removing fluid and debris from a surgical site includes a conical filter element with a plurality of orifice arrays spaced along the length of the conical body with successively decreasing orifice diameters. The filter element includes an annular flange at the mouth of the filter element that is clamped between a container and a cap. The container includes conically tapered wall to define a radial space between the container and the filter element to permit fluid flow around the filter element and through the container to an outlet tube fitting. A cap covers the mouth of the container with a threaded interface defined between the cap and the container. The threaded interface includes a dual pitch triple lead thread with a coarse lead-in pitch and a fine trailing pitch.

A portable air purifier includes an air purification module and a housing. The housing is connected to the air purification module. The housing has a first air supply port and a nozzle portion. The nozzle portion has a second air supply port. When in use, the air purified by the air purification module is guided out from the first air supply port or/and the second air supply port, so that a user can choose different air supply modes as desired.

Filter element (1), in particular filter cartridge, for filtering exhaust gases or process gases, having a filter body (2) which defines a longitudinal direction (R) and is subdivided along the latter into a plurality of substantially tubular filter body elements (7, 8) which are each connected in pairs at their end portions (9, 10) pointing towards one another, wherein the filter body (2) defines an interior space (5) of the filter element (1), wherein two filter body elements (7, 8) connected together in pairs are screwed together by means of internal and external threads (11, 12) formed at their end portions (9, 10) and corresponding to one another and are additionally glued together in their contact regions by means of an adhesive (13).

A separation device for separating fluid from a gas stream has a housing with housing corpus and housing cover non-detachably connected to the housing corpus. A hollow cylindrical filter insert is received in the housing in a flow path of the gas stream from a raw gas inlet to a clean gas outlet. The filter insert has first and second end discs at first and second axial end face sides. The filter insert has a main separator element with hollow cylindrical coalescing filter medium with coalescer material for removing fluid from the gas stream that is flowing radially through the main separator element. A preliminary separator element having a coalescing filter medium with coalescer material is arranged in the flow path of the gas stream between the raw gas inlet and the filter insert for removing fluid from the gas stream.

An air filtration system is coupled to an inlet of an enclosure of or to a piece of equipment. The air filtration system is coupled to the enclosure at the air inlet such that air entering the enclosure through the air inlet passes through the air filtration system. The air filtration system includes a frame assembly. The frame assembly includes an outer frame and a support mesh. The outer frame is coupled to the enclosure. The air filtration system includes a door assembly. The door assembly includes a door frame and a door support mesh. The door assembly is received by and mechanically coupled to the frame assembly. The air filtration system includes filter media positioned in an interior of the air filtration system defined by the frame assembly and the door assembly.
