Abstract: A filter medium is provided with a first filter layer and a second filter layer that is arranged downstream of the first filter layer in a flow-through direction of the filter medium and has nanofibers. The first filter layer has a first filter layer section and a second filter layer section, wherein the second filter layer section is arranged downstream of the first filter layer section in the flow-through direction of the filter medium. The first filter layer section has a first packing density of fibers and the second filter layer section has a second packing density of fibers deviating from the first packing density of fibers.

Abstract: The invention relates to a hotmelt adhesive comprising a hotmelt adhesive mixture, the mixture including a) 15-85% by weight of a first, polyester-based hotmelt adhesive and b) 15-85% by weight of a second, polyamide-based hotmelt adhesive.

Abstract: A filter element for filtering media with a pleated filter medium is described. Each pleat (6) is formed by two pleated sheets which form a pleat tip (7) with one another on the crude side (3) exposed to oncoming flow. Two neighboring pleats (6) form a pleat base (8) with one another, wherein the crude side (3) and/or the clean side (4) of the filter medium has a plurality of elongated adhesive sections along at least two adhesive traces (14), each having at least one adhesive section and each having at least one adhesive interruption (15). The mutual spacing of the two pleated sheets in the region of the pleat tip (7) is between zero and two mm or the two pleated sheets are in contact with one another in the region of the pleat tip (7), wherein the pleat spacing (9) between the two pleated sheets of a pleat pocket (11) amounts to at least twice the pleat spacing in the region of the pleat tip 7 in the region of the pleat base (8).

Abstract: A filter element has a zigzag-folded filter medium. Filter medium sections joined by a fold edge define an intermediate fold space, respectively, with a fold base and fold peaks opposite the fold base. An elongate support section is arranged in the intermediate fold space on a filter medium surface of one of the filter medium sections. The support section extends perpendicular to the fold edges between fold base and fold peak. The support section has a height extension perpendicular to the filter medium surface that increases in longitudinal direction of the support section from fold base to fold peak. The support section has a free side facing away from the filter medium surface. The support section has a width extension parallel to the fold edges. The width extension decreases parallel to the filter medium surface and perpendicular to the longitudinal direction from fold peak to fold base.

Abstract: A filter includes a filter element (1) having a filter medium (106) pleated in a zigzag manner, with a raw side (105) and a clean side (104). Filter medium sections (120) extend on either side of the raw-side pleat tips (102a) to adjoining raw-side pleat bases (103a) include a first bend (552) toward the raw side (105), and behind that a second bend (554) toward the clean side (104). A plurality of elongated depressions (656) are formed on the raw side (105), which extend between pleat tips (102a) and pleat bases (103a) approximately perpendicular to pleat edges (F) and implement corresponding elevations (658) on the clean side (104) such that, in a raw-side pleat intermediate space (148a), in each case, two depressions (656) on the two medium sections (120) delimiting the pleat intermediate space (148a) are located directly opposite of each other and each form a flow channel (660).
