Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a filter housing having a bowl and a head. The bowl is configured to house a portion of a filter cartridge. The bowl has an annular groove disposed about a rim of the bowl. The head is configured to mate with the bowl. The head includes an inlet, outlet, and a pair of levers. The inlet is to receive a flow of fluid into the filter housing. The outlet is to release the flow of fluid from the filter housing. The pair of levers are to draw the bowl partially into the head. Each lever has a first arm configured to mate with the annular groove, a second arm having a bearing surface, and a pivot disposed between the first arm and the second arm. A force upon the bearing surface urges the bowl into the head to form a seal.

Abstract: A filter has a filter housing. An adjustable support couples a filter element to the filter housing. A first end of the adjustable support is fixedly connected to the housing. A movable portion of said adjustable support is coupled to said filter element. The movable portion is opposite the first end. The movable portion is disposed in the throat of the filter element. The filter element occupies a fluid intake position when said movable portion is in a first position. The filter element occupies a bypass position when said movable portion is in a second position.

Abstract: A single use, disposable kit receives, and retains, toiletries and a diaper for the care of a baby in a sanitary, tamper-proof fashion. The kit is executed in a thin plastic film that is folded over upon itself so that the toiletries and diaper are enveloped within the interior of the kit and are protected against degradation.
