  • Publication number: 20140197085
    Abstract: The present invention provides a suction oil filter device for an engine or a transmission that has an oil inlet and an oil outlet on the filter housing, a suction oil pump connectable to the oil outlet, using which a partial vacuum may be generated between oil inlet and oil outlet, a fine filter medium and an ultra fine filter medium, which are situated between the oil inlet and the oil outlet. The fine filter medium is attached to the oil inlet or to the oil outlet, and the ultrafine filter medium is situated before the fine filter medium in the flow direction and in a secondary flow area of the filter housing. A high filtration performance may thus be achieved at low production outlay.

  • Publication number: 20070151906
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a filter device for filtering a fluid, in particular an oil filter. It has at least one filtering medium and a bypass for the filtering medium. Furthermore, an actuator is provided, which influences the flow of the fluid through the bypass as a function of a predetermined parameter of the fluid. The actuator is preferably controlled as a function of the viscosity of the fluid, a differential pressure of the fluid at the filtering medium, and/or the temperature of the fluid.
