Patent number: 7879125Abstract: A filter is provided by pleated filter media having a plurality of pleats defined by wall segments extending axially along an axial direction along an axis and extending transversely along a transverse direction between first and second sets of pleat tips at first and second sets of axially extending bend lines. The pleated filter media spans laterally along a lateral span along a lateral direction, with the wall segments being spaced from each other by lateral gaps. The pleats have a pleat depth along the transverse direction along the wall segments between the first and second sets of pleat tips. The pleat depth varies as the pleated filter media spans laterally along the lateral direction.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2009Date of Patent: February 1, 2011Assignee: Cummins Filtration IP Inc.Inventors: William C.

Publication number: 20100050871Abstract: Disclosed is coalescing media for coalescing a mixture of two phases, namely a continuous phase and a dispersed liquid phase. The media includes polymeric base material having a surface with asperities, and the surface is heterogenous with respect to hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity. The media is configured for coalescing a dispersed liquid phase in a continuous phase where a preponderance of the heterogeneous surface is non-wetting with respect to the dispersed liquid phase. The media is configured for capturing droplets of the dispersed liquid phase where a layer of air is trapped at the heterogeneous surface and tips of the asperities extend through the trapped layer and contact the droplets.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 3, 2009Publication date: March 4, 2010Applicant: Cummins Filtration IP Inc.Inventors: Jerald J. Moy, Barry M. Verdegan, Saru Dawar, Stephen L. Fallon, Daniel R. Cady

Patent number: 6641637Abstract: An open flow fluid filter has a pleated main filter element having a plurality of pleats in a closed loop having an outer perimeter defined by a plurality of outer pleat tips, and an inner perimeter defined by a plurality of inner pleat tips. The loop has a hollow interior extending along an axis. Fluid to be filtered flows through the main filter element from an upstream dirty side to a downstream clean side, and flows axially in the hollow interior. The main filter element has an axial flow passage extending along the axis and circumscribing the hollow interior and has a flow perimeter greater than the inner perimeter. A safety filter element downstream of the main filter element filters both the axial flow in the hollow interior and additional flow between the flow perimeter and the inner perimeter. A filter with additional flow is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2002Date of Patent: November 4, 2003Assignee: Nelson Industries, Inc.Inventors: Kent J. Kallsen, Tadeusz Jaroszczyk, Stephen L. Fallon, Z. Gerald Liu, Jerald J. Moy, Jeffrey S. Morgan, Michael J. Connor, Scott P. Heckel, Jon S. Wake

Patent number: 6238561Abstract: A corrugated axial filter (148) has a plurality of flow channels (178, 180, 182, 184, 208, 212) extending axially from the upstream dirty frontside (146) of the filter to the downstream clean backside (160) of the filter. Each channel has an upstream opening (186) at the upstream dirty frontside and has top and bottom walls (188 and 190) and right and left sidewalls (192 and 194) extending from the opening rearwardly toward the downstream clean backside. The right and left sidewalls taper towards each other as they extend rearwardly to define a triangular shaped flow channel. Right and left sidewalls of adjacent flow channels are a single continuous sheet of filter material (130) in a zig-zag pattern (134) with a plurality of fold lines including a first set of fold lines (136, 138, 140, 142, 144) at the upstream dirty frontside and a second set of fold lines (150, 152, 154, 156, 158) at the downstream clean backside.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 1999Date of Patent: May 29, 2001Assignee: Nelson Industries, Inc.Inventors: Zhili G.
