Aspects of the present disclosure relate to an apparatus for filtering a fluid. One exemplary aspect including a casing having an interior cavity and extending between a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet at opposed ends thereof, a tube sheet assembly spanning the interior cavity the tube sheet assembly having a plurality bores therethrough and a plurality of filter media tubes each extending from one of the plurality of bores in the tube sheet assembly. In some exemplary aspects, the tube sheet assembly may comprise a plurality of retaining plates sandwiched together with a tube sheet plate. In some exemplary aspects, the apparatus may further comprise at least one restrictor plate adapted to obstruct at least one of the plurality of bores of the tube sheet.

Inside a tank body storing a liquid, a return filter is provided protruding downward from an upper surface of the tank body, and a substantially plate-like (plate-shaped) float is also provided that is inserted into the tank body and floats in accordance with change in a liquid surface of the liquid stored in the tank body. The float is provided with an opening larger than a diameter of a filter case, and in a plan view, the float is disposed between the tank body and the filter case.

The cooling device for a power source for a ship propulsion device that pumps up cooling water, from which foreign matters with sizes that cause clogging of a cooling water route have been removed, supplies the cooling water to a cooling water passage (30), and discharges the cooling water to outside after cooling a power source (10) includes: a cartridge-type filtration device (40, 73) that is provided at a midpoint of a first water passage (36, 71) in the cooling water route and incorporates a filter (45, 46) for filtrating foreign matters remaining in the cooling water; and a second water passage (38, 72) that is branched from the first water passage and adapted such that a valve member (53) is opened to cause the cooling water to flow in a case in which clogging occurs in the filter.

A regenerative filter that includes a filter housing having inlet and outlet zones; a fluid path provided between the inlet and outlet zones; a plurality of filter elements each having an outer surface filter media applied thereto and functioning to filter particulate or contaminants from the fluid path; and a tube sheet that is supported across the filter housing, that is disposed just before the outlet zone and that provides the support for the plurality of filter elements. The plurality of filter elements are disposed in an array and includes bridging members or elements that connect between adjacent filter elements, and that forms with the filter elements, a closed interstitial space between adjacent filter elements for liquid flow; a nanoscale barrier on interior surfaces, including that of the regenerative media itself, providing a mechanism to disrupt the cell wall of microscopic viruses and organisms.

A water filter cartridge has an end cap with separate inlet and outlet nozzles connected to the end of a cylindrical tube that extends from the end cap. The nozzles are slanted and laterally offset from the cylindrical tube. A cam surface on the outer side of the nozzles actuates valves in a mating manifold. The passage in the nozzles is conical, expanding toward the nozzle end and opening onto a portion of the nozzle side to form a sharper tip. Expanding ice pushes itself out of the conical passage and facilitates ice removal. The narrow end of the conical passage facilitates breakage and removal of ice from the nozzle.

A dishwashing appliance with a shrouded filtration assembly for removing dishwashing sediment from recirculated dishwashing fluid is provided. The dishwashing appliance may include a tub, a spray system, a recirculation pump, a drainage pump, and a shrouded filtration assembly in fluid communication with the spray system, the recirculation pump, and the drainage pump. The shrouded filtration assembly may include a lid, a filter frame, and a sump housing.

A drinking utensil having a longitudinal axis has an elongate body having a first end and an opposing second end spaced from the first end along the longitudinal axis. The elongate body defines a lumen therethrough from the first end to the second end. A filter body can be coupled to the first end of the elongate body. The filter body has a housing defining at least one side opening and a top opening that is in communication with the lumen of the elongate body. The filter body has a filter (e.g., a mesh filter) extending across and covering the at least one side opening of the housing.
