An airborne particle removal system includes a wire filter having a housing that includes a wall. The wall has an interior surface and an exterior surface. The wire filter also has a plurality of layers of wires mounted to the interior surface of the wall of the housing. Each layer in the plurality of layers includes a plurality of wires designed to collect airborne particles from air and release the airborne particles. The system also includes a receptacle configured to receive the airborne particles released from the plurality of wires.

An ambient air purification device has a filter device arranged in a filter receiving region of its housing. The filter device has a main filter element and a prefilter element, each having a circumferential frame device. A clamping force generating device is provided in the housing to exert an axial clamping force on the frame device of the main filter element resting, when mounted, at the frame device of the prefilter element. The clamping force is transmitted to the frame device of the prefilter element and presses the latter seal-tightly via a seal against a circumferential contact shoulder of the filter receiving region to seal the filter device in the filter receiving region. The frame device of the main filter element is sealed indirectly by the frame device of the prefilter element in relation to the housing and has no seal location of its own in relation to the housing.

A particle discharge device for a filter assembly has a housing with a valve seat, wherein the valve seat surrounds at least partially a symmetry axis of the housing. One or more particle discharge flaps embodied as one piece together with the housing are provided. The one or more particle discharge flaps are movable from a closed state into an open state for discharging particles from the filter assembly. The one or more particle discharge flaps are resting against the valve seat in the closed state. A filter assembly is provided with a filter housing having a particle discharge socket in which the particle discharge device is arranged.

A panel filter is provided. The panel filter can have extended life or higher dust holding capacity by one or more of the following provisions of (a) placing the dimpled pattern (compressed region) on the downstream side and outlet face of the media, (b) using the dimpled media in combination with adhesive spacers and embossments, (c) selection of a media that is depth loading rather than surface loading, (d) operating the pleater/embossing assembly in a manner so as to maintain integrity of the dimples and/or other features as described herein.

A filter cleaning mechanism includes a sliding rail, a filter, a dust box, a cleaning device, and a driver. The filter is mounted to the sliding rail. The dust box is mounted to a bottom of the sliding rail. The cleaning device is mounted in front of the filter and above the dust box. The cleaning device includes a cleaning brush and a screen. The driver is mounted to a side of the sliding rail and is electrically coupled to the cleaning device. The driver moves up and down along the sliding rail. The cleaning brush and the screen move along with the driver up and down the sliding rail. The driver drives the cleaning brush to brush the filter. The screen blocks the front of the filter while the cleaning brush brushes the filter.
