A filter cartridge comprises a filter core, a filter frame, glue, and at least one sealing unit. The filter frame is mounted around an axial end of the filter core and has a frame body, an abutting segment, and a gluing segment. The abutting segment axially protrudes from and annularly extends along an edge of one of two axial end openings. The gluing segment axially protrudes from and annularly extends around the abutting segment, and surrounds the filter core. The glue is coated on and is wrapped around the gluing segment, extends into a position between the gluing segment and the filter core, and attaches to an inner gluing surface of the gluing segment, an outer gluing surface of the gluing segment, and an outer surface of the filter core. Therefore, the adhering area between the glue and the filter frame is effectively increased.

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.

An oil mist filter includes: a filter body having a tubular shape, the filter body causing processing-target gas supplied to a hollow in the filter body pass through an outer peripheral surface to capture oil mist contained in the processing-target gas; and an end plate disposed at one end surface of the filter body the end plate projecting outward beyond an outer peripheral edge of the one end surface of the filter body. A plurality of ventholes are formed at a portion of the end plate projecting beyond the outer peripheral edge of the one end surface of the filter body. The processing-target gas blown out from the outer peripheral surface of the filter body passes through the ventholes.

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 filter element including a throughflow-porous filter body extending between a head end and a longitudinally opposite foot end, wherein a head structure is formed at the head end of the filter element, the head structure having at least one seal configured to seal the filter element with respect to a filter element holder, wherein the head structure has a sidewall extending basically in the longitudinal direction and the seal is formed on the basically longitudinally extending sidewall of the head structure of the filter element.

The present disclosure relates to a filter element comprising a filter medium pack and a support arrangement comprising at least a shell member, and wherein a portion of the shell member is thermally welded to a circumferential face of the filter medium pack. The present disclosure further relates to a method of manufacturing such a filter element, the method comprising heating at least a portion of the shell member of the support arrangement, positioning the shell member around the circumferential face of the filter medium pack, pushing the heated circumferential portion of the shell member against the circumferential face of the filter medium pack, and allowing the circumferential portion of the shell member to cool down.

A filter device for ambient air filtration has a blower housing with air inlet and air outlet. A device for generating an air flow is arranged in the blower housing and generates an air flow in operation from air inlet to air outlet. A flexible air conducting hose is provided with a first open end connected to the air outlet of the blower housing and with a second closed end. The flexible air conducting hose has openings arranged between first open end and second closed end. Filter elements are arranged in the openings, respectively. The filter elements separate a raw side inside the air conducting hose from a clean side downstream of the filter element. The air conducting hose is inflated in operation of the device by the air flow. The flexible air conducting hose has a reduced air permeability compared to the air permeability of the filter elements.

An End Cap for an Assembly Used in the Preparation of Compressed Gas An end cap for attaching to one or more filter elements and respective filter bowls is disclosed. The end cap has a tubular body formed by extrusion and this body has a series of apertures formed therein. The apertures include an end aperture for attachment to a filter bowl and another end aperture for attachment to another filter bowl or to a sealing disc. The body also has a pair of sidewall apertures to act as inlet and outlet the filter assembly. The end cap also has a plastic insert for insertion into the body, the insert having a conduit portion for directing a stream of gas from the inlet to a filter element through one of the end apertures.

A filter apparatus for filtering a stream of gas is disclosed. The apparatus has a head with an inlet and an outlet, the head also having a first flow conduit connected to the inlet and a second flow conduit the outlet. The apparatus also has a filter and a bowl which contains the filter and is connected to the head. The bowl an annular recess. There is also a connector for connecting the filter to the head and the bowl. The part of the connector that engages the bowl has a protrusion that is inserted into the recess.

The invention relates to a cartridge flange for fitting filter cartridges in filter systems, in particular industrial suction-extraction systems or air-filter systems.
