A bathroom management apparatus may include a case having an air suction port formed in an upper portion of a front surface thereof, a first air discharge port formed in a lower portion of the front surface thereof, and a second air discharge port formed in a lower surface thereof. A suction vane opens or closes the air suction port, and first and second discharge vanes opens or closes the first and second air discharge ports, respectively. A duct is provided in the case to connect the air suction port, the first air discharge port and the second air discharge port to one another. A blowing fan is provided in the duct to suck air through the air suction port and blow the air to the first air discharge port and the second air discharge port. A heater heats the air in the duct.

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.

An aircraft engine cooling air system is configured to provide cooling air to turbine components. The system has an airflow path extending from a source of cooling air to the turbine components. A baffle is disposed in the airflow path upstream of the turbine components. The baffle has a filtering surface defining a plurality of filtering holes sized to trap particulate matter suspended in the cooling air. A bypass passage is fluidly connected to the source of cooling air and the turbine components in parallel with the baffle so as to allow airflow to the turbine components when the filtering holes of the baffle are clogged.

The filtration device enables the separation and collection of dust and particles produced by the pads of a brake assembly. A first separation unit having an air filtration medium, typically annular, is provided in the housing of the device, in order to define an upstream zone where air is admitted, for example tangentially, and a downstream zone in communication with an outlet of the housing for discharging the purified air. The upstream zone is in communication with a lower stage situated lower down, in which a second separation unit is located in order to separate water from particles that have fallen from the upstream zone. A filtration by the second unit is intended to collect clean water and possibly to discharge this water by gravitational flow. The fallen particles remain trapped inside the device, under the first unit.

A filter housing for a filter device is provided with an inlet housing arranged upstream of a filter element. The inlet housing has an inflow opening for introducing a fluid to be purified into the filter housing. The inlet housing has an overflow opening at an outlet of the inlet housing, wherein the overflow opening conveys the fluid to be purified to the filter element. The inlet housing has an inlet channel disposed between the inflow opening and the overflow opening. The inlet channel has an intermediately positioned channel section located between the inflow opening and the overflow opening, wherein a cross-sectional shape of the intermediately positioned channel section differs from a cross-sectional shape of the inflow opening and from a cross-sectional shape of the overflow opening.

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 filter element including a filter media, an end cap, and a baffle. The filter media is configured to be secured within a housing. The housing includes an inlet configured to accept a fluid for filtering and the filter media including a circumferential outer surface. The end cap is positioned at and coupled to one end of the filter media. The baffle is positioned relative to the filter media at a position such that, when the filter element is correctly installed within the housing, the baffle is proximate the inlet of the housing. The baffle extends around only a portion of the circumferential outer surface of the filter media in a radial direction.

The present teachings provide for a housing for a panel filter, the housing including a main body, a plurality of first vanes, and a plurality of second vanes. The main body can define a chamber and a central aperture. The central aperture can extend through the main body and can be in fluid communication with the chamber. The plurality of first vanes can be disposed within the chamber and circumferentially spaced about the central aperture. Each first vane can extend radially outward from the central aperture a first distance. The plurality of second vanes can be disposed within the chamber and can be circumferentially spaced about the central aperture. Each second vane can extend radially outward from the central aperture a second distance that is less than the first distance.

An internal combustion engine includes an engine block including a cylinder, a horizontally oriented crankshaft, an air-fuel mixing device configured to provide an air-fuel mixture to the cylinder, and an air filter assembly configured to provide filtered air to the air-fuel mixing device. The air filter assembly includes a housing comprising a first housing end portion and a second housing end portion and defining an interior volume, a filter element positioned within the interior volume dividing the interior volume into a filtered volume and an unfiltered volume, a gap between the filter element and the housing configured to allow air to flow between the filter element and the housing, an air intake, and a filtered air outlet.

An image forming apparatus has a function to clean exhaust air from inside and to discharge cleaned air. The image forming apparatus has an exhaust air duct configured to guide internal air to outside, and a cleaning filter configured to clean air passing through the exhaust air duct. A cubic measure of an airflow path in the exhaust air duct during normal operation has a first value, and the cubic measure of the airflow path in the exhaust air duct during operation causing a large amount of harmful matters to be contained in the exhaust air from inside has a second value greater than the first value.
