Filter cartridges including tubular filter media having ovate cross-sections and filter systems using the ovate tubular filter cartridges are described herein. The inner perimeters of the ovate cross-sections of one or more of the filter cartridges may be asymmetric, i.e., the inner perimeters of the cross-sections of the tubular filter media in the filter cartridges may have no lines about which they are symmetric. The inner perimeters of the ovate cross-sections of the tubular filter media in one or more of the filter cartridges may have only one line of symmetry.

A filter element (100) that is to be mounted in a housing (102) has at least one substantially hollow cylindrical filter bellows (10, 20) designed to separate liquid from aerosol, and two cover elements (30, 40) designed to cover axial end regions (12, 14, 22, 24) of the filter bellows (10, 20). The axial end portions (12, 14, 22, 24) of the at least one filter bellows (10, 20) are pressed against the cover element (30, 40) by an axial compressing force. The at least one filter bellows (10, 20) is secured in the axial direction, and one respective sealing zone (16, 18, 26, 28) is formed between each filter (10, 20) and each cover element (30, 40).

An ambient air purifying device has a blower housing with air inlet and air outlet. In the blower housing, a flow generating device is arranged generating an air flow from air inlet to air outlet. Between air inlet and air outlet, a filter device is arranged with filter elements arranged relative to each other in a V shape. The blower housing has a servicing door through which the blower housing interior is accessible. The filter device has a filter element support held at the blower housing and supporting the filter elements. The filter element support is pivotably supported about an axis at the blower housing. The filter element support is transferrable from an operating state, in which it is completely inside the blower housing, into a servicing state, in which it projects at least partially through the servicing door from the blower housing, by pivoting about the axis.

The present disclosure concerns odorants or fragrances dispersing systems, more specifically a system designed for dispersing one or more odorant compositions from one or more odorant canisters that are incorporated within an air filter of an air conditioner system. The system is configured to permit dispensing of one or more odorants in a selective manner as per user-demand.

A multi-functional air purification filter includes: a breathable support layer; a mesh layer provided on the breathable support layer; and a filter layer provided on the mesh layer, wherein at least a portion of the multi-functional air purification filter has a plurality of bends, and the mesh layer includes a coating layer of at least one of a photocatalytic material, an adsorption material, or a sterilizing material.

A power tool having a power tool housing, a motor, a tool moved relative to the housing by the motor, a fan rotated by the motor such that a fluid flow with debris generated by tool is moved into the fluid inlet by the fan and through the discharge outlet, and a filter that is removably attached to the power tool housing. The power tool housing includes a fluid inlet and a discharge outlet. The filter includes a filter media for separating the debris from the flow of fluid. The filter media defines a collection container for storing the debris. The filter also includes an opening through which the flow of fluid with the debris enters the collection container, and a valve that is moveable between a closed position, in which the opening is closed, and an open position, in which the opening is open. The valve includes a duckbill check valve.

A fluid filter has a filter housing with inlet opening for fluid to be cleaned and outlet opening for cleaned fluid. A filter element arranged in an element receptacle of the filter housing separates inlet opening from outlet opening. The filter housing has a housing body with an installation opening to the element receptacle, through which the filter element in an installation direction is introduced into the element receptacle. The filter housing has a housing cover for closing the installation opening. The installation opening is arranged in a transverse side of the housing body that is lateral relative to the housing axis. The filter housing has a sealing surface, surrounding the housing axis at least partially circumferentially, for contacting a seal of the filter element. The filter element has a seal support device for the seal and the filter housing has a pressing device for the seal support device.

A dust filter is configured to filter air drawn into a vehicle canister. The dust filter includes a first portion including a first engaging portion and a second portion including a second engaging portion. The second portion is attached to the first portion by engagement of the second engaging portion with the first engaging portion. The first portion includes a filtration member and a case. The case includes an inner chamber within which the filtration member is disposed. The case includes a drainage port configured to drain liquid that has infiltrated the inner chamber. The second portion is attached to the first portion to form a cover that covers the drainage port together with the first portion. The cover has an outlet that opens to the outside at a position lower than the drainage port.

A filter element has a fold pack with a filter material folded in a zigzag shape. The fold pack has lateral fold profiles and an end fold section disposed at a head side of the fold pack. Lateral strips are attached to the lateral fold profiles of the fold pack. A seal section angularly projects at an angle away from the end fold section at the head side of the fold pack. The seal section is provided with at least one incision or cutout configured to receive a corresponding filter housing contour. A filter assembly with such a filter element is provided. The filter housing has a housing part with a filter housing contour provided with at least one engagement element. The at least one incision or cutout of the seal section receives the at least one engagement element of the filter housing contour.

A filter system has a filter housing with a fluid inlet for inflow of a fluid into the filter housing. A filter element is removably received in the filter housing. The filter element has a folded filter medium and a stabilization ring attached to the filter medium and stabilizing the filter medium. The stabilization ring is arranged on the filter medium such that the stabilization ring, at least in sections, is arranged within an inflow cross section of the fluid inlet. The fluid directly flows against the filter medium in operation of the filter system.
