A blood clot removal device for removing blood clots from the vascular system of a patient is implantable in the patient's body. The blood clot removal device comprises a blood flow passageway to be connected to the patient's vascular system to allow circulation of the patient's blood through the blood flow passageway, a filter provided in the blood flow passageway for collecting blood clots occurring in the blood flowing through the blood flow passageway, and a cleaning device for moving blood clots collected by the filter out of the blood flow passageway. By means of such blood clot removal device, the risk of blood clots reaching sensitive areas of the patient's body, such as the brain, is reduced.

The present disclosure relates to a clothes dryer. The clothes dryer includes a drum configured to accommodate and dry clothes, and a lint removal device configured to remove lint in air flowing out of the drum. The lint removal device includes a filter part configured such that the lint is adhered thereto, and a screw rotatably disposed at an inner side of the filter part to push out the lint adhered to the filter part. The screw includes a shaft, and a blade extending from the shaft and having a helical shape, and the blade has elasticity to remove foreign substances introduced into the lint removal device without damage to the filter part.

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.

The present invention relates to a painting booth having a structure which sprays a paint in a painting booth, and is capable of reutilizing by withdrawing a used paint, and preventing atmospheric pollution and surrounding contamination, and is configured to include: an exhaust duct installed in an upper part of a booth; a filter plate configured by a metal net, which is installed on a front wall of the booth; a bottom filter plate installed on a bottom of the booth, and a collector collecting paint sludge which falls to the bottom.

A filter system for a vacuum cleaner is disclosed. The system comprises a housing reconfigurable relative to a bin between an operative configuration in which the housing is disposed upon the bin so that dirt separated from dirt-laden air can collect in the bin, and an idle configuration in which the housing is removed from the bin. The housing comprises an inlet for receiving dirt-laden air into the housing, an outlet via which cleaned air can exit the housing. The system further comprises first filtering means and second filtering means disposed within the housing, the first filtering means being positioned upstream of the second filtering means. The first and second filtering means comprises a filter medium configured to separate dirt from the dirt-laden air passing from the inlet to the outlet through the filter medium. The system further comprises filter cleaning means for removing dirt from the filter medium of the first filtering means when the housing is configured at least in the operative configuration.

A laundry dryer having a cabinet with a plinth, a first door on the plinth, a drum rotatable in the cabinet, a process air flow duct exiting the drum, and a filter assembly behind the first door in the a duct section inside the plinth. The filter assembly includes a frame, a filter supported by the frame, and a cleaning device. The cleaning device has a slidable wiper and a fluff collector. The cleaning device is movable within the frame to cause the wiper to wipe the filter, and to collect material wiped from the filter in the fluff collector.

The present invention relates to a filtering device for removing particles from a bodily fluid of a patient, the filtering device being implantable in the patient's body. The device has a tube forming a main fluid passageway for bodily fluid, through which the bodily fluid of the patient passes when the tube is implanted in the patient, a filter connected to the tube and a filter cleaning device for cleaning the filter by moving particles collected by the filter out of the fluid passageway, wherein the filter cleaning device is adapted to replace the first filter in the fluid passageway with a second filter, thereby moving the particles collected by the first filter out of the fluid passageway.
