Abstract: A filter device for ambient air filtration has a blower housing with air inlet and air outlet. A device for generating an air flow is arranged in the blower housing and generates an air flow in operation from air inlet to air outlet. A flexible air conducting hose is provided with a first open end connected to the air outlet of the blower housing and with a second closed end. The flexible air conducting hose has openings arranged between first open end and second closed end. Filter elements are arranged in the openings, respectively. The filter elements separate a raw side inside the air conducting hose from a clean side downstream of the filter element. The air conducting hose is inflated in operation of the device by the air flow. The flexible air conducting hose has a reduced air permeability compared to the air permeability of the filter elements.

Abstract: An ambient air purification device has a filter device arranged in a filter receiving region of its housing. The filter device has a main filter element and a prefilter element, each having a circumferential frame device. A clamping force generating device is provided in the housing to exert an axial clamping force on the frame device of the main filter element resting, when mounted, at the frame device of the prefilter element. The clamping force is transmitted to the frame device of the prefilter element and presses the latter seal-tightly via a seal against a circumferential contact shoulder of the filter receiving region to seal the filter device in the filter receiving region. The frame device of the main filter element is sealed indirectly by the frame device of the prefilter element in relation to the housing and has no seal location of its own in relation to the housing.

Abstract: The present invention provides a flow grid arranged at a fluid intake side of a fluid flow generating device, the flow grid comprising: a frame configured to be mounted to a housing of the fluid flow generating device; and a fluid flow area connected to the frame, the fluid flow area having an outer perimeter, the outer perimeter having a diameter (douter), the outer perimeter being adjacent to the frame, wherein the fluid flow area comprises a polygonal cell arrangement having a kaleidoscopic pattern, wherein the polygonal cell arrangement comprises at least two types of cell geometries sharing a concentric axis, each type of cell geometry being arranged concentrically to the other(s), and wherein the polygonal cell arrangement is convex when viewed from the fluid intake side. There is also provided an ambient air purification device and use of the disclosed flow grid in the ambient air purification device.

Abstract: An ambient air purifying device has a blower housing with air inlet and air outlet. In the blower housing, a flow generating device is arranged generating an air flow from air inlet to air outlet. Between air inlet and air outlet, a filter device is arranged with filter elements arranged relative to each other in a V shape. The blower housing has a servicing door through which the blower housing interior is accessible. The filter device has a filter element support held at the blower housing and supporting the filter elements. The filter element support is pivotably supported about an axis at the blower housing. The filter element support is transferrable from an operating state, in which it is completely inside the blower housing, into a servicing state, in which it projects at least partially through the servicing door from the blower housing, by pivoting about the axis.

Abstract: A road vehicle with a vehicle frame and a rear axle connected to the vehicle frame is provided with an ambient air purification device with filter elements for removing dust, particulate matter, and gases from ambient air. The ambient air purification device is arranged transverse to a longitudinal vehicle axis in an exterior region of the road vehicle at a vehicle rear of the road vehicle in an underfloor region such that at least the filter elements are arranged behind the rear axle of the road vehicle in a travel direction of the road vehicle. The ambient air purification device is received in an installation space of the vehicle frame. The ambient air purification device is flowed through in longitudinal vehicle direction. A free outflow zone of the ambient air purification device is arranged, in travel direction of the road vehicle, behind the ambient air purification device.
