Abstract: A filtration system having an undulated interlocking housing-endplate interface geometry is described. In the filtration system, a filter element endplate and a filter housing component (e.g., a shell housing, a filter mounting head, etc.) meet at an interface. The filter housing component includes an undulating or repeating pattern that meshes with a matching undulating or repeating pattern on the endplate of the filter element. The undulating or repeating pattern prevents the filter element from freely rotating with respect to the filter housing component of the filtration system.

Abstract: An air cleaner assembly comprises a housing and a filter element. The housing comprises a first housing end and a second housing end. The second housing end of the housing defines an opening of the housing for fluid flow. The filter element is configured to be received through the first housing end of the housing. The filter element comprises a filter media and a closed endplate. The filter media comprises a first media end and a second media end. The second media end of the filter media defines an opening of the filter element for fluid flow. The closed endplate is positioned along the first media end of the filter media and comprises a wall with an axially inner surface and an axially outer surface. The axially outer surface is exposed to an area outside of the housing and closes off the first housing end of the housing when the filter element is positioned within the housing.

Abstract: A filter element includes first filter media, second filter media, a frame, and a seal member. The frame is coupled to the first filter media and the second filter media, the frame securing the first filter media and the second filter media into a V-shape. The seal member is attached to and extends from the frame. The seal member includes a U-shaped channel structured to receive a ridge of a housing when the filter element is installed in the housing. The seal member is structured to form a seal between the filter element and the housing when the filter element is installed in the housing.

Abstract: A filter cartridge includes a shell, a connecting ring, an end cap, and an axially directed sealing member. The shell defines an inner cavity and an upper lip disposed along an upper edge of the inner cavity. The upper lip defines a channel. The connecting ring is positioned outside of the inner cavity and is engaged with the channel. The connecting ring includes a threaded region extending along a central axis of the shell. The end cap is engaged with the shell adjacent to the upper lip. The axially directed sealing member is positioned between the shell and the end cap and extends axially outward so as to form an axial seal with a filter head when the filter cartridge is installed on the filter head.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to filter assemblies that include filter elements with cross-channel flow having flat and/or folded arrangements for optimized functionality and performance. The filter assemblies may be formed (e.g., shaped, constructed, etc.) using a variety of shapes, angles, configurations, and materials to improve the filtration and cross-channel flow of fluid through the filter media. The filter media may implement a wide variety of patterns (e.g., repeating, origami, rounded, etc.), shapes (e.g., tetrahedral, rhombus, square), and construction (e.g., pleated, integrated, interdigitated, etc.).

Abstract: A filter assembly comprises a filter element and an outlet flange. The filter element comprises a filter media pack comprising a plurality of filter media layers stacked on top of each other to form the filter media pack. The filter media pack has an inlet surface being at an inlet portion of the filter media pack, and an outlet surface being at an outlet portion of the filter media pack. An outlet flange is coupled to the outlet portion of the filter media pack.

Abstract: An external brace for a filter element is described. The brace is configured to wrap around an exterior of a filter element having a filter media pack. The brace helps to support the filter media pack during filtering operations by preventing outward flexing of the filter media pack caused by fluid flowing through the filter media. In some arrangements, the brace interfaces with a filtration system housing to provide additional support to the filter element.

Abstract: Various embodiments relate to a filter element. The filter element includes a first filter end, second filter end, filter media, and filter frame. The second filter end is disposed axially away from the first filter end. The filter media extends axially between a first filter end and a second filter end. The filter frame is adjacent to the first filter end. The filter frame includes a first frame end, a second frame end, a first frame endwall, a second frame endwall, a first frame sidewall, and a second frame sidewall. The second frame end is disposed axially away from the first frame end. The first frame endwall extends axially away from the first frame end toward the second frame end. The second frame endwall extends axially away from the first frame end toward the second frame end. The second frame endwall is disposed longitudinally away from the first frame endwall.

Abstract: Filtration systems having a tangential air cleaner having a coiled media filter element and a cyclonic pre-cleaner are described. An outer wall of the filter element acts as a pre-cleaner sleeve of the housing to generate a cyclonic flow of the intake air prior to the intake air being filtered by the filter element. The housing cover includes geometry that redirects the cyclonic low from a tangential path to an axial, straight-through flow directed through an inlet flow face of the filter element. Various embodiments of such filtration systems offer increased filter performance and capacity compared to similarly sized cylindrical pleated filter elements having a radial flow filtering path.
