20230051844 · 2023-02-16 ·

The present application discloses an air purifier, including: a first body including a first housing; and a second body detachably connected to the first body and including a second housing, where buckles are arranged on the first housing, and snap-fit members are arranged on the second housing; the number of the buckles is greater than the number of the snap-fit members; and the first body in butt joint is enabled to rotate relative to the second body, so that the buckles can be hooked with the snap-fit members or separated from the snap-fit members. In the air purifier, a larger number of buckles are hooked with a smaller number of snap-fit members, so that disassembly and assembly operations can be simplified. Because the first body and the second body are detachable, the second body can be operated independently when the filter screen is detached.

Non-cylindrical filter and side entry air cleaner incorporating the same

A filter element is provided that is preferably a side entry air filter having an air filter media pack, a housing seal and a frame that has a clamping projection, a pivot projection and/or guide members. The clamping projection can define a non-linear bearing surface that may be chevron shaped to provide for interface and potential alignment benefits. The housing seal may be a wave seal that undulates.

FILTER ELEMENTS, AIR CLEANER ASSEMBLIES, AND METHODS OF USE AND ASSEMBLY

Air cleaner assemblies, components, and features are described. The features can be used to provide that the air cleaner assembly includes a housing and cover within which primary and secondary filter cartridges, having a media pack and a seal arrangement surrounding the media pack, can be installed. The filter cartridges can include an open end cap with an axially deviating seal arrangement and a plurality of axially extending channels for engaging with ribs on the housing. The filter cartridges can also include extension members extending from the open end cap that include the axially extending channels, entirely or partially. The filter cartridges can also include a guide member extending from the extension members for providing a low friction surface against the housing during installation that allows axial force exerted by the installer to be translated into a rotational force that rotates the filter cartridge during installation.

Air cleaner arrangement with end support for cartridge; components; and, methods

An air cleaner assembly is described and shown which includes a housing having an air flow inlet, an air flow outlet and a housing body and access cover. A serviceable filter cartridge is positioned within the housing. A projection/receiver arrangement providing for engagement between the cartridge and the housing is provided. The projection/receiver arrangement can be configured in a manner that inhibits undesired motion of the cartridge, once installed. An example projection/receiver arrangement is provided, which includes a serpentine receiving groove on the access cover and a serpentine projection on the filter cartridge. Example filter cartridge features are described.

Cyclonic air filter assembly for an engine

An internal combustion engine includes an engine block, an air-fuel mixing device, and an air filter assembly. The air filter assembly includes a housing, a filter element, and a gap between the filter element and the housing. The housing includes a base and a cover which define an interior volume. The housing includes an outlet passage fluidly coupling a filtered air outlet to a final air outlet. The filter element divides the interior volume into a filtered volume and an unfiltered volume. The gap is configured to direct air in a first airflow pass before being filtered by the filter element. The filter element is configured to direct filtered air in a second airflow pass in a substantially opposite direction from the first airflow pass. The outlet passage is configured to direct filtered air into a third airflow pass in a substantially same direction as the first airflow pass.

A vehicle air filtration assembly includes a box having a longitudinal axis and a wall extending along first and second axes. A filter cartridge includes tubular filter media operatively connected to a plate group. The plate group has a first face with a sealing profile and a second face having at least two contact profiles. The filter cartridge is insertable into the box along an insertion direction substantially parallel to the first or second axis. The box includes a housing region between the wall and contact elements longitudinally spaced from the wall and axially spaced from each other. The plate group is housed in the housing region with the a sealing profile engaged with the wall and the contact profiles engaged to the contact elements. The sealing profile or contact profiles are shaped/positioned at variable vertical distances relative to an imaginary extension plane.

Ambient air purifying device and use of a filter element in an ambient air purifying device

An ambient air purifying device has a blower housing with air inlet and air outlet. In the blower housing, a flow generating device is arranged generating an air flow from air inlet to air outlet. Between air inlet and air outlet, a filter device is arranged with filter elements arranged relative to each other in a V shape. The blower housing has a servicing door through which the blower housing interior is accessible. The filter device has a filter element support held at the blower housing and supporting the filter elements. The filter element support is pivotably supported about an axis at the blower housing. The filter element support is transferrable from an operating state, in which it is completely inside the blower housing, into a servicing state, in which it projects at least partially through the servicing door from the blower housing, by pivoting about the axis.
