  • Fluid filter arrangement for a motor vehicle drive train
    Patent number: 10124278
    Abstract: Fluid filter arrangement for a motor vehicle drive train. The filter arrangement comprises a filter housing, which has a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, allowing fluid to flow in one flow direction from the fluid inlet to the fluid outlet. A filter insert is arranged in the filter housing and divides an interior of the filter housing into an inlet region connected to the fluid inlet and an outlet region connected to the fluid outlet. The filter insert has a filter medium for filtering fluid. The filter insert has a perforated plate having a plurality of holes. The holes are arranged ahead of the filter medium in the flow direction. The size of at least some of the holes is adapted so that fluid impinges upon the filter medium at an increased flow velocity.
