  • Patent number: 4738778
    Abstract: The filter element of the present has a plurality of wavy portions which are so arranged that a plurality of wavy portions make a generally ring like structure. In order to reduce the pressure drop when the fluid flows through the filter element, the present filter element has a special shaped radial gaps. Namely, the width of a first radial gaps, which is formed within adjacent wavy portions and which connects with an inner space formed at the center of the generally ring like structure, increases from the outer end thereof to the inner end thereof. The width of a second radial gap, which is connected with outer atmosphere, decreases from the outer end thereof to the inner end thereof. Both axial ends of the wavy portions are covered with the adhesive sheet on which adhesive layer is cladded.

  • Patent number: 4486206
    Abstract: A cyclone type air cleaner has a cylindrical housing having a tangential air inlet formed in the peripheral wall of the housing and an air outlet formed in the upper end wall thereof. A downwardly converging frusto-conical member having a central opening is disposed in the housing coaxially therewith to divide the interior of the housing into a first or upper swirling chamber and a lower space in which a cylindrical or annular member is disposed coaxially with the central opening to define therein a second or lower swirling chamber communicated with the upper swirling chamber through the central opening. The cylindrical or annular member cooperates with the housing peripheral wall to define a dust-collecting chamber communicated with the lower swirling chamber through an annular gap defined between the frusto-conical member and the cylindrical or annular member. An axial flow type filter element is disposed between the upper swirling chamber and the air outlet.
