  • Patent number: 9975072
    Abstract: A filter element to be inserted into a filter housing, has a filter medium with a rim, wherein the rim is connected to an injection-molded frame or at least one injection-molded frame element, providing a flexibly bendable filter element using a frame made of plastic attached by injection molding, wherein the frame or at least one frame element is made of plastics of different hardnesses in alternation in at least one extension direction, such that the filter element can be bent flexibly at least in part by deforming the filter medium and the frame or frame element.

  • Patent number: 9855825
    Abstract: The use of a filter element with a body which has material which is suitable for adsorption of gases and vapors, the body being in the form of a honeycomb body, is, with regard to the object of supplying a substantially closed chamber with filtered inlet air in trouble-free fashion, the inlet air being virtually completely freed from pollutants which are present in the form of aerosols, gases, liquid droplets or solid particles, and a filter element of simple construction being used, wherein the filter element is used for supplying filtered inlet air to an at least partially closed-off chamber, the inlet air being freed from pollutants which are present in the form of aerosols, gases, liquid droplets or solid particles.

  • Publication number: 20170361684
    Abstract: A filter element for the filtration of the incoming cabin air of vehicles is disclosed. The filter element can be readily regenerated and reused in a dust-loaded environment. The filer element includes a main body formed from at least one filter medium. The main body has an inflow side and an outflow side. The filter element is used as a regenerable filter element for the filtration of the incoming cabin air in a vehicle which is subjected to elevated dust loading. A coating of nanofibers and/or a diaphragm is arranged on the inflow side of the main body.

  • Patent number: 8281248
    Abstract: Collaboration by a plurality of users in an application. The application may include processing logic and a user interface. The user interface may include at least one control element adapted to receive collaborative input, where the at least one control element may be linked to a collaboration utility. The collaboration utility may be adapted to generate the collaborative input for the control element based on the individual inputs of at least some of the plurality of users.

  • Patent number: 8128729
    Abstract: A method of providing error correction to flow velocity readings of a fluid flowing through a filter arrangement for monitoring the service life of the filter, wherein a filter arrangement, comprising a filter and a sensor device is arranged downstream of the filter, the sensor device including at least one measuring sensor for detecting the flow velocity of the fluid which flows through the filter, and a further measuring sensor for measuring the air humidity of the fluid which flows through the filter. A reading of said second sensor element provides an error correction to the first sensor element.
