Abstract: A filter device 2 is provided with: a filter body 3 equipped with a filtering material 30; and a mesh-like filter cover 5 that is mounted to the filter body 3 in such a manner as to cover at least part of a filtering surface 32 of the filtering material 30. The filter cover 5 is provided with: a purification part 50 which includes multiple layers formed by folding a single sheet of metal mesh material and which has a rectangular shape that is substantially identical to that of the filtering surface 32 in a plan view; and a first leg 51 and a second leg 52 which intersect with the purification part 50 in a side view. The metal mesh material has a finely corrugated surface formed thereon. The entire outer peripheral edge 59 of the filter cover 5 is completely fitted within the filtering surface 32.

Abstract: A shaped object shaped by a shaping method includes a structure that is shaped by stacking plural constituent layers and a ceiling wall to support the structure. The structure includes plural spiral form parts. Each spiral form part has a cross section in an elliptic shape and extends in a stacking direction while turning with respect to a center position of the elliptic shape. The plural spiral form parts are disposed in matrix in a state where the center positions are separated from each other by a predetermined distance. The spiral form parts that are adjacently disposed in a row direction and a column direction are shaped so that the turning directions are opposite. In at least one cross section of the structure, the major axes of the spiral form parts that are adjacent in the row direction and the column direction are orthogonal to each other.
