A point of use air wand with a built in filtration system may include a wand including a filter body; a filter housed within the filter body; an input endcap attached to a first end of the filter body, the input endcap operatively attached to an air source; and an accumulator endcap attached to a second end of the filter body. Forced air may enter the wand through the input endcap, flow through the filter, and then out of the wand through the accumulator endcap.

Vehicle Engine Air Intake System and Method (to be accompanied by FIGS. 1 and 3) In a motor vehicle (12), an air filter housing (14) is at least partially defined by a cross-member (28) forming part of a structural front end module of the vehicle body. The cross-member (28) defines a recess (44) for receiving an air filter (90) and at least one air inlet aperture opening into the recess. An air filter enclosure assembly is mounted to the cross-member over an open face of the recess. The air filter enclosure assembly may include an air filter enclosure (42) and an air filter (90).

A device has a power source having a high voltage terminal and a low voltage terminal, an oil-free gas compressor, a first molecular sieve, multiple ionized gas generators, an outer metal pipe, an inner metal pipe, a dielectric insulating ceramic sheet, and a gas outlet pipe. The first molecular sieve is connected between the oil-free gas compressor and the ionized gas generators, and is capable of filtering out molecules in the gas except for oxygen. The outer metal pipe and the inner metal pipe are electrically connected to the low voltage terminal and the high voltage terminal respectively. The dielectric insulating ceramic sheet is mounted between the outer metal pipe and the inner metal pipe, and forms an ionizing space, which communicates with the ionizing space, with the outer metal pipe.

A heat and moisture exchanger device comprising a housing containing a microcurrent-generating filter capable of generating a low level microcurrent. A microcurrent-generating filter can reduce the number of living or active microbes.

The present disclosure relates to a removable filter system for removably coupling a filter unit to an air supply unit provided in a boiler. The filter unit is detachably coupled to the air supply unit, so that after removing the contaminated filter unit coupled to the air supply unit, a new filter unit can be coupled to the air supply unit or the existing filter unit can be reused after removing contaminants remaining in the filter.

A filter for in-line or inlet applications. The filter may include a spindle for supporting a filter element. In some embodiments, the spindle may be fixedly attached to a filter cap or filter body. The filter may be used as an in-line filter with a hose or tube on the inlet and outlet ports of the filter cap and filter body. In addition, or alternatively, a filter consistent with the present disclosure may be provided with a splash cap that allows use of the filter as a protected inlet for fluid flow. When used as an inlet filter, fluid may enter the filter through the splash cap and exit the filter through hose or tube coupled to the filter body. Both uses allow for serviceability.

A system for preventing debris buildup in vacuum sensor lines includes: a manifold, including a positive air pressure source and a controller; and one or more positive air pressure lines. Each positive air pressure line is in fluid communication with the manifold and can be placed in fluid communication with a vacuum sensor line. The controller is operably connected to and selectively activates the positive air pressure source to emit a positive flow of air, which can be directed into the one or more positive air pressure lines, and then into and through the associated vacuum sensor lines to evacuate debris. In some embodiments, a positive flow of air can also be directed through one or more vacuum lines of the end effector to promote the release of a parcel engaged with the end effector and/or clear the vacuum lines of debris.

The invention relates to a filter for filtering a liquid or a gas, with a pocket-shaped filter element which has a sleeve-shaped circumferential region, a closed head region and an open foot region, and with a frame element which has an annular base, in which the foot region of the filter element is accommodated, and at least one supporting strut which extends away from the base along the circumferential region of the filter element. An advantageous design of the filter is achieved by forming the head region of the filter element with a saddle shape, wherein two lateral tips are provided between which a channel-shaped recess is formed.

A pulmonary function test filter and filter assembly for use with a breathing tube of a spirometer. The filter assembly includes a first portion having an exhaust end configured to removably engage an exhaust end of a flow tube of a spirometer, preferably without an adapter, a second portion configured to cooperatively engage the first portion and including a mouthpiece, and filter media. The filter media is removably securable between the first and second portions.

A fluidic filter for filtering a fluid includes a filter housing having an inlet part, an outlet part and a housing part, and a filter element having an inlet side and an outlet side. The filter element is housed inside the housing part of the filter housing and includes a first flow passage that extends along a longitudinal direction of the filter element and is connected to the outlet part, and a plurality of ridges extending along the longitudinal direction. A plurality of second flow passages respectively are formed between ridges and an inner surface of the housing part, allowing the fluid to flow from the inlet side of the filter element along the longitudinal direction. At least a portion of the plurality of ridges facing the second flow passages is permeable to the fluid so as to allow passage of the fluid from the second flow passages to the first flow passage. A tip portion of each of the plurality of ridges is joined to the inner surface of the housing part along a part of the tip portion of the respective ridge in the longitudinal direction.
