  • Patent number: 11486339
    Abstract: The invention relates to an air filter housing for use in an air cleaning arrangement for cleaning air to be provided to an air inlet of an internal combustion engine. The air filter housing comprises: a filter housing inlet for receiving air; and a filter housing outlet for providing filtered air to the air inlet of the internal combustion engine when an air filter is arranged inside the air filter housing between the filter housing inlet and the filter housing outlet. The air filter housing further comprises a closing arrangement controllable to be in each of a first state in which the filter housing outlet is closed by the closing arrangement, and a second state in which the filter housing outlet is open. The closing arrangement may comprise an iris shutter.

  • Publication number: 20210245086
    Abstract: The invention relates to a replaceable air filter unit (100) for filtering air to be supplied to an internal combustion engine in a vehicle, said replaceable air filter unit (100) forming a sleeve about a central axis (X) and extending along said axis (x) between a first end (102) and a second end (103), for axial insertion into a filter housing (200) with said first end (102) leading the axial insertion, said air filter unit (100) forming an outer sleeve surface (104) bounded by an outer filter radius (Ro) for receiving unfiltered air, and an inner sleeve surface (105) bounded by an inner filter radius (Ri) for output of filtered air. An axially flexible skirt (106) is circumferentially arranged at the first end (102) of the air filter unit (100) and extending radially outside the outer filter radius (Ro), for wiping an inner surface (202) of the filter housing (200) when the air filter unit (100) is axially removed from the filter housing (200).
