Abstract: The invention relates to a filter, especially a fuel filter, comprising a housing of a suitable plastic material, consisting of an upper part and a lower part, and a concertinaed filter element arranged in the housing. Said housing separates an inlet from an outlet. The upper part is connected to the lower part by welding or the like. The front sides of the filter element are directly connected to the opposing front walls of the housing.

Abstract: One-way valve, especially low-pressure check valve, for use in the medical technology, having a housing consisting of an inlet half and an outlet half and having an inlet channel and an outlet channel with a diaphragm being positioned in a pressure space which is contacting an annular valve seat under pre-tension which is opening into the outlet channel. The pressure space is consisting of two pressure chambers. In the direction of flow before the closing mechanism formed by the valve seat and the diaphragm a second valve mechanism is provided which is opening in the same sense with the first closing mechanism at an over-pressure in the entry channel and which is closing at an over-pressure in the exit channel.

Abstract: A vehicle fuel filter for mounting to a fuel pump in a fuel tank comprises a tubular body having an axis, a first end and a second end opposite the first end; a pump connection neck positioned on the first end of the tubular body and having a filter outlet opening for mounting the filter on a fuel pump intake tube, the filter outlet opening having an axis at a substantially right angle to the axis of the tubular body; an inlet opening on the second end of the tubular body, the inlet opening extending axially in the direction of the axis of the tubular body; an envelope of filter fabric surrounding the inlet opening such that fuel entering into the envelope can pass into the tubular body through the inlet opening; and a supporting body fixedly connected to the tubular body at the second end and at a predetermined angle to the tubular body, at least a portion of the supporting body preventing the filter envelope from collapsing.

Abstract: A fuel filter has a supporting body comprising plastic which is enclosed in a filter fabric and which has a pump connection neck positioned on the top side of the filter. The pump connection neck, with its bottom end extending in close proximity to the bottom of the filter, has an inlet opening. The inlet opening is surrounded by a number of supporting feet. According to the invention, the inlet opening (9) is covered by a plastic disk (12) extending normal to the axis (14) of the pump connection neck (6). The plastic disk (12) is connected with the supporting feet (10) in such a way that the filter fuel flows into the pump connection neck (6) in a radial direction.
