Patent number: 11865488Abstract: Filter media having a design embossed into the media are described. In some arrangements, the filter media is pleated filter media. In other arrangements, the filter media includes a plurality of channels, such as tetrahedron channels. The filter media includes a pattern of interrupted straight or angled embossments that help maintain separation between adjacent layers of the filter media. The embossments allow for two adjacent media layers (e.g., mating surfaces of the filter media) to remain separated, thereby increasing dust holding capacity and lowering pressure drop ever similarly configured filter media not having the embossments.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2022Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: Cummins Filtration IP, Inc.Inventors: Emmanuel Page, Anthony Barreteau, Kurt M. A. Badeau, Christopher E. Holm

Publication number: 20200406181Abstract: A filter assembly comprises a filter element and a housing. The filter element comprises a filter media, and an alignment feature positioned on at least a portion of an outer surface of the filter media. The alignment feature comprises an alignment channel. The housing defines a housing internal volume. At least a portion of the filter element is positioned within the housing internal volume. The housing comprises an alignment protrusion extending axially from a housing inner surface towards the filter element so as to mate with the alignment channel. The alignment feature comprises a ring member positioned circumferentially around the filter media at a filter media first end proximate to the housing, and a filter baffle extending from the ring member. The filter baffle is circumferentially positioned on at least a portion of the outer surface of the filter media and defines the alignment channel.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2019Publication date: December 31, 2020Applicant: Cummins Filtration SarlInventors: Ronan CORVEC, Emmanuel PAGE

Patent number: 10737208Abstract: Radial seal filter assemblies and filter cartridges are described. According to various embodiments, a filter includes a housing that extends along an axis between first and second axial ends. A primary filter element is disposed in the housing and axially extends between first and second axial ends that respectively are adjacent the first and second axial ends of the housing, the primary filter element has a hollow interior and a first axial length. A secondary filter element is disposed in the hollow interior of the primary filter element, the secondary filter element having a second axial length, the second axial length being longer than the first axial length of the primary filter element. The filter further includes an end cap disposed on the second axial end of the primary filter element.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2018Date of Patent: August 11, 2020Assignee: CUMMINS FILTRATION IP, INC.Inventors: Scott W.

Patent number: 10596507Abstract: Assembly to be used to filter a fluid, containing a housing (29) which comprises a housing base (50) and a housing upper part (30) connected removably to the housing base (50). An axial shaft (34, 35) extends at least partially through the filter element (32, 33) when the filter element (32, 33) is contained inside the housing (29). A lower bearing (44) is arranged between the axial shaft (34, 35) and the housing base (50) and underneath the filter element (32, 33) when a filter element (32, 33) is contained inside the housing (29). The housing (29) is able to contain a filter element (32, 33) within it and the filter element (32, 33) fits onto the axial shaft (34, 35) in such a way that the axial shaft (34, 35) is rotationally coupled to the filter element (32, 33). The filter assembly (20, 120) has no bearing above the filter element (32, 33).Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2016Date of Patent: March 24, 2020Assignee: CUMMINS FILTRATION SARLInventors: Anthony Barreteau, Kevin Maguer, Chirag D.

Patent number: 10518198Abstract: A filter cartridge having an endplate formed of polyurethane having a varying hardness is described. A first portion of the endplate is harder than a second portion of the endplate. The first portion of the endplate helps support the filter media of the filter element and maintain the shape of the filter element. The second, softer portion creates a seal between the filter element and a filter housing when the filter element is installed in the filter housing. The first portion and separate portions may be formed from different types of polyurethane or from the same type of polyurethane having a varying composition as a function of the radial distance of the endplate.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2018Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: Cummins Filtration SarlInventors: Emmanuel Page, Jean-Yves Picard
