The present invention relates to a method of implanting a blood clot removal device in a patient's body, by cutting the skin of the patient's body, dissecting an area of the patient's vascular system, placing the blot clot removal device at the dissected area, and connecting a blood flow passageway of the blood clot removal device to the patient's vascular system to allow circulation of the patient's blood through the blood flow passageway.

The filtering apparatus includes: a casing having an inlet for a fluid from the outside and an outlet for the fluid having filtered therein; filter elements having opposite-end openings, provided in the casing, and each filtering the fluid by allowing the fluid to flow therethrough in inside-to-outside directions; backwashing pipes sequentially connected to the opposite-end openings at different timings between the opposite-end openings of each filter element so as to backwash the filter element by allowing the fluid to flow therethrough in outside-in directions; removers each axially moved in the corresponding filter element by the filtration or backwashing flow, while sliding in contact with the inner periphery of the filter element so as to remove trapped objects; and a backwashing fluid drain pipe coupled to the discharge side of the backwashing pipes and allowing the trapped objects removed by each remover to be discharged to the outside.

The present invention relates to an appliance comprising, a regenerative filter for filtering a fluid flow, having at least one filter, a filter regenerator for regenerating the regenerative filter, a turbine for driving the filter regenerator, the turbine being driven by the fluid flow passing through the appliance during its use.

A filter structure capable of removing dust is proposed. The filter structure includes a circular rim part; a frame, extending from the rim part, for installing a motor; a dust collection net attached to the frame; a brush which is in close contact with the dust collection net and is rotated by means of the motor; an opening, formed at a lower end of the rim part, for discharging dust; an open part formed at one side of the dust collection net; and a concave groove part having an outside coupled to the open part and in one-side communication with the opening at the rim part.

A medical electronic apparatus includes: a casing including a lid portion provided with: a first inlet duct; a second inlet duct; and an outlet duct, the lid portion being configured to open the second inlet duct when the first inlet duct is blocked; a detection unit configured to detect an open/close state of the lid portion; and an output unit configured to output information regarding blockage of the first inlet duct based on a detection result of the detection unit.

An air purifier is provided. The air purifier according to an exemplary embodiment includes a body including an air inlet and an air outlet, an air blowing unit disposed in an inside of the body, the air blowing unit being configured to forcibly introduce outside air into the inside of the body through the air inlet and discharge air into the air outlet, a filter unit rotatably disposed between the air blowing unit and the air inlet, a driving motor configured to rotate the filter unit, and a cleaning member detachably connected to a vacuum cleaner and disposed in proximity to the filter unit to guide contaminants adhering to the filter unit to be flown into the vacuum cleaner.

An air conditioner unit includes a blower fan, an inlet grille upstream of the blower fan, and an outlet grille downstream of the blower fan. The air conditioner unit also includes an air filter positioned between the inlet grille and the outlet grille with a belt encircling and enclosing the air filter on four sides. The air conditioner unit further includes a motor operatively connected to the belt. The motor is configured to rotate the belt around the air filter and thereby clean the air filter.

A device is provided that provides an unbiased filtration effect and an effect of removing captured substances through backwashing by causing a fluid to uniformly pass through a filter element over the entire length in an axial direction at the time of backwashing so as to efficiently rotate a captured-substance removal tool in a filtration unit 1 which includes the captured-substance removal tool 20 axially supported inside the tubular filter element 2 to be rotatable.

An indoor unit for an air-conditioning apparatus includes a plurality of axial-flow fans arranged side by side in a horizontal direction below an air inlet. Further, the indoor unit includes a plurality of filters provided to the air inlet so as to be arranged side by side. A cleaning mechanism and a dust box are further provided to the air inlet. Further, the dust box is arranged at a position between adjacent filters and adjacent axial-flow fans.

An indoor unit for an air-conditioning apparatus includes a cartridge provided to an air inlet so as to be freely mountable and dismountable. The cartridge accommodates a filter so as to be freely movable in a fore-and-aft direction and has an opening port formed in one end portion in the fore-and-aft direction. A dust box is provided on a side of the end portion of the cartridge. The dust box includes a cleaning mechanism configured to clean the filter and a dust collecting portion configured to collect dust.
