  • Publication number: 20240033670
    Abstract: A gaseous fluid filter has a filter element insertable into the filter housing through a service opening. A clamping wedge is insertable in a joining direction for clamping the filter element in clamping direction against the filter housing. The filter element rests against the filter housing with a seal surface facing away from the clamping wedge. The clamping wedge has a housing wedge side facing a housing stop and a filter element wedge side facing a filter element stop. These wedge sides each have first and second bearing surfaces separated by a step. The joining direction extends in or parallel to a contact plane between housing wedge side and housing stop. The first and/or second bearing surface of the filter element wedge side is positioned at a wedge base angle of 1° to 20° to the joining direction. The steps of the wedge sides are offset in joining direction.

  • Publication number: 20230381703
    Abstract: A filter has a filter housing with a housing cover coupled to a housing part to close a receiving space receiving filter elements each provided with a filter medium body and a frame device around the filter medium body. The filter housing has a radially inwardly projecting, circumferential contact shoulder in the receiving space. The housing cover, when mounted, exerts an axial clamping force on the frame device of a first filter element. An axial end of the first filter element facing away from the housing cover rests on the frame device of a second filter element. The clamping force is transmitted through frame device of first filter element to frame device of second filter element. The frame device of the second filter element has a circumferential seal with a hollow chamber profile pressed by the clamping force on the contact shoulder to seal-tightly contact the contact shoulder.

  • Patent number: 11583795
    Abstract: A fastening module for connecting a filter system to an arched connecting surface with openings for a fluid has a connecting housing connectable in fluid communication to the filter system. Rigid individual channel pieces are arranged in the connecting housing and channels extend in the channel pieces. The channels correspond with the openings in the arched connecting surface. The channel pieces have connecting flanges to be connected to the openings in the arched connecting surface. The channel pieces are connected by flexible connecting regions with each other; with the connecting housing; or with each other and with the connecting housing. The fastening module is connected in fluid communication to the inlet region or outlet region of the filter system. A filter module for the filter system has substantially free intake across its cross section and enables an intake manifold-type distribution of a volume flow passing through the filter element.

  • Patent number: 10688427
    Abstract: A filter element has a filter bellows with circumferential seal having a seal region and a fastening region with radial and axial fastening sections. The radial fastening section has a holding surface facing away from the filter bellows and engaging a radially inner pressure-exerting section of a housing. The axial fastening section provides a radially inner boundary of a circumferential groove of the seal region that receives a radially outer pressure-exerting section of the housing. A seal projection forms a radially outer boundary of the groove. The seal region has an axially acting sealing surface opposite the groove axially spaced farther from an axial filter bellows end face than the holding surface. Axial spacing between groove base and axially acting sealing surface is greater than a spacing between a transition of the groove base into the axial fastening section and a transition of the holding surface into the seal region.
