Abstract: The invention concerns a fuel filter 10, in particular for diesel fuels, that comprises a housing 11 and a filter medium 12. The filter medium 12 is arranged by means of a filter medium holder 24 in the housing, wherein the filter medium holder comprises a venting bore 25. Through the venting bore 25 gases that collect in the upper area of the fuel filter can pass from the crude chamber 21 into the clean chamber 22. For avoiding that contaminants can escape through a clean outlet 18 from the fuel filter 10 and damage components downstream, a clean medium 26 is provided that retains such contaminants.

Abstract: A filter element of a filter system for filtering fluids has a filter medium with end faces. Terminal bodies, one each, are connected to one of the end faces of the filter medium, respectively. A support body extends between the terminal bodies. A first terminal body is connected by a toothed connection to the support body for transmitting a torque from the first terminal body onto the support body and from the support body onto the first terminal body.

Abstract: A sealing device (24) of a filter system (10) for filtering fluids, in particular of a motor vehicle, with a sealing ring (26) is described. The sealing ring (26) serves to seal a pipe (16), in particular a central pipe of a filter housing (12), that penetrates through a flange-sided opening (18) of an end plate (20), in particular of an end element of a filter element (14). The sealing ring (26) features a central section (58) that connects it with the end plate (20). The sealing ring (26) features in its axial direction on both sides of the central section (58) elastic sealing sections (60, 62) which cause each a reduction of the inner diameter of the sealing ring (26) compared with the central section (58).

Abstract: A filter device comprises a hollow cylindrical filter element in a filter housing. The fluid that is to be purified is to radially flow through the filter element. The interior of the filter element forms an axial flow chamber for the fluid. An end plate is arranged on the front side of the filter element. An annular neck, onto which a sealing element is injection-molded, is connected to the end plate.

Abstract: A filter device for a motor vehicle has a filter element with a porous ceramic support body provided with one or more passages for receiving a liquid to be filtered and filter membranes formed on inner walls of the passages. The liquid to be filtered passes through the filter membranes into the support body and exits from the support body through a circumferential surface of the support body. At least one compensation element is arranged at an end face of the support body. The compensation element is elastically deformable for providing an additional liquid volume that is generated when the liquid expands due to freezing.

Abstract: An air filter insert including at least one filter element (2; 4; 11) and a seal (3; 7) extending along outer edges of one side of the filter insert (2; 4; 11) and via which the filter insert is sealingly seated against housing sections (5, 6) of a surrounding filter housing. The filter insert (2; 4; 11) is configured such that the air can easily flow into or out of the structural space on the one side of the filter element with a minimum pressure drop. The filter insert (11) may be at least partially covered on the inflow and/or discharge side by a semi-permeable component (12), which at least partially equalizes the pressure distribution in the air stream.

Abstract: A filter device for filtering liquids having a filter element situated in a filter housing, with a deformable expansion element being provided in the filter housing so that when it is deformed, the volume of at least one section of the flow path of the liquid to be filtered in the filter housing is variable.

Abstract: A fuel filter system characterized by a simple design provided with a coalescer element (20) disposed in the immediate fuel inlet region for improving the elimination of water droplets. The coalescer element includes an upper end plate (26) that extends to the inner wall of the housing (10), thereby sealing the coalescer element as well as the inlet region and the outer unfiltered fluid region. The coalescer element (20) and the particle filter (19) are arranged on a common separating element (25), which rests against the discharge tube (17) located in the center of the fuel filter via a profiled seal. The end plate of the coalescer element can be produced with the profiled elastomeric seal molded thereon by two-component injection molding or by overmolding.
