Patent number: 11235266Abstract: A filter cartridge with easier extraction provided by a roll-out clearance region for a radial seal is provided. The filter cartridge may be a two stage filter with the seal being located between stages and usable in a filtration vessel having a central separation wall with one or more riser pipes. Also, a new vessel is disclosed with multiple diameters for first and second stages of the housing with a larger second stage diameter as compared to the first stage, which can reduce door size and/or cause fluid flow velocities to be slower at the second stage relative to the first stage.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2020Date of Patent: February 1, 2022Assignee: Parker-Hannifin CorporationInventors: Jack David Burns, Stephen Jeane, Andrew Dye, Jeremy Stevens

METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A GRADIENT DENSITY, THERMALLY BONDED, CONVOLUTED ROLL DEPTH FILTER CARTRIDGE
Publication number: 20210370201Abstract: A gradient density filter element, and associated method, and an associated apparatus are provided. The gradient density filter element includes a gradient density filter media formed via compression during winding of a layer of filter media into a cylindrical roll.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2021Publication date: December 2, 2021Inventors: Daniel M. Cloud, Jack David Burns -
Patent number: 11071934Abstract: Improvements to filtration and vessels such as for filtration and coalescing of gas streams are shown. A filter element with a partial treated region and untreated region such as providing different surface energies or other filtration characteristics are provided. Various keying arrangements for compatibility and/or rotational locking are shown between the filtration vessel, a tubular coalescing baffle, and/or filter element. The tubular coalescing baffle also may include non-louvered pore structure, which provides for more even flow in a two stage type filtration vessel to prevent premature exiting and reduction of flow velocities along the second stage, and/or may additionally or alternatively include drainage apertures such as drain slot formed along a gravitational bottom or otherwise to facilitate additional drainage of coalesced liquid as opposed to letting such liquid be forced through fluid velocity toward the open end of the tubular baffle.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2019Date of Patent: July 27, 2021Assignee: Parker-Hannifin CorporationInventors: Daniel M. Cloud, Stephen Gregory Jeane, Jack David Burns

Patent number: 10315141Abstract: A filter formed essentially from a staple fiber is provided. A nonwoven staple fiber is compressed in to a mat or sheet of selected porosity. The mat or sheet does not include a binder or bicomponent fibers. The staple fibers may be heat treated. The sheet is formed into a selected geometric shape and the staple fibers are thermally fused to bind the staple fibers into a porous filter element. The preferred shape is a helically wound tube or plural sheets, each sheet being self-overlapped and compressed to overlap another sheet. Each sheet is preferably heated and compressed individually and the sheets may be selected to have different porosities and densities.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2016Date of Patent: June 11, 2019Assignee: Parker Hannifin Filtration (US), Inc.Inventors: Andrew Ray Dye, Jack David Burns, Johnny Glen Keeton

Patent number: 10195558Abstract: A filter element is provided with a cartridge locating system. The filter element includes a closed end cap and an open end cap with a tubular ring of filter media disposed between the end caps. The filter element includes an annular seal that can seal to round and non-round sealing surfaces and acts to block fluid flow between the open end cap and a pipe assembly in a pressure vessel assembly. A support bar is enclosed by the filter media and has a key. The filter element has a key receptacle to receive the key of the support bar. The user knows that the seal between the filter element and the pipe assembly is fully aligned and engaged when the key from the support bar fully enters the key receptacle of the filter element.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 2015Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Assignee: PECOFacet (US), Inc.Inventors: Andrew Dye, Jack David Burns, Eddie Blake Brown, Bulent Turan
