An air cleaner includes a fan that is configured to suck air in an axial direction and discharge air between the axial direction and a radial direction. The air cleaner further includes a fan motor that is configured to rotate the fan. The air cleaner further includes an air guide unit that includes a cylindrical outer wall and an inner wall that is located in a center portion of the outer wall and that defines a space that is configured to receive the fan motor. The air guide unit defines an annular air flow path that is configured to receive air discharged by the fan and that is defined by an inner circumferential surface of the outer wall and an outer circumferential surface of the inner wall. The air guide unit further includes a plurality of guide ribs. The air guide unit further includes a plurality of flow guide protrusions.

Present embodiments relate to an air filter adapter for use with open style engine air filters. More particularly, but without limitation, present embodiments relate to a filter adapter having a hydrocarbon trap positioned within the adapter.

An air quality system includes an air precleaner, a filter identification component, and a control module. The air precleaner has a precleaner housing and a filter disposed inside the precleaner housing. The filter identification component is positioned within the precleaner housing at a first position and is mounted on the filter. The control module is positioned within the precleaner housing at a second position and is configured to emit an electrical field and communicate with the filter identification component via the emitted electrical field.

A debris canister and filter assembly, which may be used in a vehicular vacuum cleaner, includes a debris canister having an inlet, an outlet, and a peripheral side wall. The peripheral side wall at least partially defines an interior space of the debris canister. A filter is disposed in the interior space of the debris canister, and includes filter media having a non-pleated portion and a pleated portion. The peripheral side wall forms a corner of the debris canister, and the filter media has a rounded-corner shaped to fit adjacent to the corner of the peripheral side wall.

A vacuum cleaner includes an air inlet, a filter, a fan, and a main air outlet. The filter has a clean side and an unclean side. An unclean air chamber is formed between the air inlet and the unclean side of the filter. A first air chamber is formed between the clean side of the filter and the fan. An air outlet chamber is formed between the fan and the main air outlet. The upstream end of the air outlet chamber is connected to the first air chamber. An airflow may enter the vacuum cleaner from an external environment via the air inlet under the action of the fan, and sequentially passes through the unclean air chamber, the filter, the first air chamber and the air outlet chamber the main air outlet. The vacuum cleaner may include a self-cleaning air passage and an air supply air passage.

Thermoplastic bicomponent binder fiber can be combined with other media, fibers and other filtration components to form a thermally bonded filtration media. The filtration media can be used in filter units, such as breather caps. Such filter units can be placed in the stream of a mobile fluid and can remove a particulate and/or fluid mist load from the mobile stream. The unique combination of media fiber, bicomponent binder fiber and other filtration additives and components provide a filtration media having unique properties in filtration applications.

A filter apparatus for filtering a stream of gas. The cartridge has an upper part and a lower part. The upper part is joined to the lower part by a connection. The filter cartridge supports a filter element. The filter cartridge has a resilient connection arrangement for connecting the filter cartridge to a bowl of a filter apparatus. The filter apparatus has a head, a bowl connectable to and sealable relative to said head, and the filter cartridge.

The filtration device enables the separation and collection of dust and particles produced by the pads of a brake assembly. A first separation unit having an air filtration medium, typically annular, is provided in the housing of the device, in order to define an upstream zone where air is admitted, for example tangentially, and a downstream zone in communication with an outlet of the housing for discharging the purified air. The upstream zone is in communication with a lower stage situated lower down, in which a second separation unit is located in order to separate water from particles that have fallen from the upstream zone. A filtration by the second unit is intended to collect clean water and possibly to discharge this water by gravitational flow. The fallen particles remain trapped inside the device, under the first unit.

A blow-by gas filtration assembly has an axis and includes an assembly body including a filtration chamber, an inlet mouth for filtering the blow-by gases, and an outlet mouth for the filtered blow-by gases. A filter group includes a central cavity radially crossed by blow-by gases. An electric drive operatively connects to the filter group to command rotation about the axis and filtration, and includes an electric motor including a stator and rotor. An axial shaft includes a filter portion mounting the filter group, a command portion mounting the rotor, and a support portion axially between the filter and command portions. A support bearing radially engages the support portion and the assembly body. The filter assembly screwably engages the filter group and filter portion, by respective filter and shaft threads so the filter group screws to the shaft until the support bearing is axially engaged.

An air cleaner assembly comprises a filter element and a housing assembly. The filter element comprises a filter media for filtering a fluid and a first endcap positioned along a first end of the filter media and through which a first filtered air flow portion flows. The housing assembly at least partially contains the filter element and comprises a cover that defines a first outlet through which the first filtered air flow portion flows to a downstream device. The cover comprises a noise reduction device that receives the first filtered air flow portion and dissipates sound waves traveling upstream from the downstream device.
