A filter screen component, a base assembly, a clothes dryer, and a washing and drying integrated machine. The filter screen component comprises a motor and a filter screen part; the filter screen part comprises an annular filter screen body having holes; one end of the filter screen body is connected to a rotary shaft of the motor, and the other end is provided with an opening. The filter screen component, the base assembly, the clothes dryer, and the washing and drying integrated machine can not only effectively filter impurities such as soft flocks in an air flow, but also require, when cleaning the impurities such as soft flocks, no additional cleaning parts or manual cleaning; the cleaning is thoroughly completed.

A rotating separator including a filter element extending axially along a longitudinal axis and including a first endplate, a second endplate, and a separating element. The first endplate includes a center tube. The second endplate is coupled to the first endplate and includes a central aperture having a perimeter and receiving the center tube. The filter element also includes an axially extending slot and an axially extending protrusion positioned on one of the first endplate and the second endplate and configured to engage with each other. The first and second endplates form an interior cavity when coupled together. The rotating separator includes a filter structure positioned within the interior cavity.

A separation assembly comprises a housing, a jet that expels a fluid within the housing, and a turbine assembly positioned within the housing and positioned so as to be contacted by the fluid expelled from the jet. The fluid causes the turbine assembly to rotate about a center rotational axis within the housing. The turbine assembly comprises a first turbine portion and a second turbine portion that are separately formed from each other and attachable together. The first turbine portion comprises a plurality of first vanes and the second turbine portion comprises a plurality of second vanes.

An attachment and retaining mechanism is described for removably attaching a rotating filter element to a rotating shaft. The rotating filter element includes a filter media that is driven by a drive mechanism that rotates the rotating shaft. The filter element is removably attached to the rotating shaft such that the filter element and filtration system can be periodically replaced and/or serviced. In some arrangements, the drive shaft includes a D-shaped section that interacts with a mating section of the filter element sleeve of the rotating filter element. In other arrangements, the drive shaft includes at least one flat drive surface.

A blow-by gas filtration assembly fluidically connects to a vehicle engine system to receive blow-by gases and filter the suspended particles. A filtration assembly main body includes a filtration chamber and an outlet mouth. A filter group is radially crossable by blow-by gases from outside to inside, including a central cavity. A command group partially houses and supports on the main body operatively connected to the filter group to command the filter group in rotation. A support group supporting the filter group includes a bearing element with an outer fifth wheel sealingly engaging an outlet edge, an inner fifth wheel defining an outlet passage for filtered blow-by gases, and a hollow tubular member defining an outlet duct, including a bearing end operatively connected to the inner fifth wheel and a support portion extending from the bearing end, in the central cavity, mounting the filter group on the support portion.
