  • Filter assembly
    Patent number: 9375664
    Abstract: A filter assembly includes a housing defining a cavity with an inlet and an outlet in communication with the cavity and establishing a flow path from the inlet to the outlet. A filter is disposed in the cavity between the inlet and the outlet. The filter includes a vertex extending transversely to the flow path for diffusing the flow of fluid and increasing the surface area of the filter. The filter includes a pair of legs spaced from each other and each extending across the flow path from the vertex to the housing. The legs extend transversely to each other at the vertex with one of the legs extending along a first arcuate path from the vertex to the housing and the other of the legs extending along a second arcuate path different than the first arcuate path from the vertex to the housing.
