Abstract: A filter element has a fold arrangement and a shaped seal extending about at least one section of a circumference of the fold arrangement. The shaped seal consists of a thixotropic sealing material or at least contains such a thixotropic sealing material. The thixotropic sealing material is thixotropic PUR or thixotropic silicone or a mixture of both.

Abstract: A filter element has a zigzag-shaped fold pack of folds. At least one terminal element is folded parallel to the folds of the fold pack. The at least one terminal element has a first leg, a second leg, and a third leg. The first leg is arranged substantially perpendicularly to a flow direction of a medium flowing through the filter element. The first, second and third legs are delimited by folds of the at least one terminal element. The first and second legs are positioned substantially at a right angle relative to one another. The third leg projects laterally away from the filter element to form a peripheral seal.

Abstract: A filter insert insertable seal-tightly into a filter housing has a filter element having end faces. At least one of the end faces of the filter element is engaged by a reinforcement clamp provided with a sealing element. The reinforcement clamp and the sealing element together form a single integral component. The sealing element has an outer sealing section that is connected to the reinforcement clamp so as to be movable relative to the reinforcement clamp.

Abstract: An active carbon coated filter element is proposed for preventing the issuance of hydrocarbons from an opening. It includes a medium containing active carbon, which is of substantially planar shape and has a frame. The frame is provided with sealing lips on at least two sides. The medium is arranged with the frame in a plastic holder, the plastic holder being able to be inserted and fixed in the opening. The sealing lips engage the wall of the opening.
