Abstract: The present invention relates to a filter element using a plastic cap integrated with a relief valve, wherein a net type core 21 is received in a spin-on filter housing 10 in the cylindrical shape opened at the top portion thereof and formed with a plurality of oil passing holes 21a in the periphery thereof, and an oil pleated paper 22 is positioned to maintain the shape thereof at the periphery of the core 21 so as to be positioned at a small distance from the inner wall of the housing 10. The filter element 20 includes: an upper cap 23 formed of a plastic material at the upper end thereof; and a fixed lower cap 50 integrated with a relief valve formed of plastic material at the lower end thereof. The fixed lower cap 50 integrated with a relief valve receives and fixes a relief valve 30, which is formed of a valve plate 32 and an elastic spring 33. In the filter element 20, the core 21 is covered by the upper cap 23 and the lower cap 50, which are kept in close contact with the outside of the core 21. According to the present invention, assembly of the valve plate 32 and the elastic spring 33 of the relief valve 30 is simplified by integrating a plurality of upper holding protrusions 52 of the fixed lower cap 50 integrated with a relief valve. In addition, the deviation of an element compression spring 25 closely contacting the lower inner surface of the housing 10 by the oil which is introduced into an oil hole 53 is prevented by the integration of the lower holding protrusions 52. Furthermore, the upper cap 23, the fixed lower cap 50 integrated with a relief valve and the core 21 are manufactured by plastic injection molds so as to reduce weight. The spin-on filter may be reused without separation from the oil pleated paper 22, which is fixed by a thermosetting resin 22a (since both are formed of the same materials) when discarding the spin-on filter. In addition, it is possible to use the element in the generation of renewable energy.

Abstract: A fluid filter is preferably constructed from a relatively thick batting of high loft, non-woven, fluid permeable fibrous material. The filter batting is then passed through a manufacturing device, which slices the batting in the vertical as to create two continuous filter batts from the parent filter batt. The slicing also creates a relatively deep V-shaped zig zag or waveform pattern in the anterior filter surfaces of the top and bottom of the batt. The top half deep V-shaped zigzag patterns peaks and valleys correspond or line up with the bottom half's valleys and peaks since the waveform landscape of the first child batt is essentially a negative impression of the second child batt. Accordingly, the patterns nest within one another. When separated, the two children batts each comprise a waveform landscape for dynamically directing fluid streams from the anterior filter surface to the posterior filter surface.

Abstract: A fuel filtration apparatus for use in an internal combustion engine comprises an interrupter valve in a flow path from an inlet port of a filter head to a compliant filter. The interrupter valve has an open state and a closed state. In the open state a protruding member of the filter depresses a bottom end of the valve and opens the flow path when the compliant filter is connected to the filter head. The interrupter valve also has a closed state wherein the flow path is closed in the absence of the protruding member of the filter (as with a non-compliant filter).

Abstract: A filter assembly includes housing enclosing a replaceable filter element. A support core is provided in the housing, and includes an extension and locking assembly. The element includes a ring of filtration media with a pair of end caps. The first end cap includes a central opening to receive the support core. The extension and locking assembly prevents the cover of the housing from being attached to the housing body without a proper filter element installed. The extension and locking assembly includes a bypass member and a locking member, which are in locking engagement when an element is absent in the housing. The second end cap includes internal protrusions which engage the locking member when the filter element is installed to disengage the bypass member from the support core, and allow the element to be inserted and the cover to be installed.

Abstract: A fuel filter includes mating housing portions defining an interior cavity. A pipe in the housing includes a central flow passage with an opening along the length of the pipe, and an exterior groove. A latch device with discrete fingers closely surrounds the pipe and is engageable with the groove to prevent the latch device (68) from moving axially along the pipe. The latch device has an annular sleeve, radially-outwardly spaced from the fingers. A moveable valve device surrounds the pipe and has a valve sleeve normally covering the opening in the pipe. An annular base on the sleeve includes radially projecting tabs defining a plurality of slots. A filter element is removeably located in the housing and has an end cap with a valve actuating portion. The valve actuating portion includes a cylindrical portion and an annular base projecting radially inward from the cylindrical portion. The valve actuating portion includes a plurality of thin, flat keys spaced around the annular base and projecting radially inward from the cylindrical portion and axially outward from the base. The keys have first portions which project through the slots in the valve device and engage the sleeve of the latch device to unlock the latch device from the pipe, and second portions which engage the base of the valve device and move the valve device to uncover the opening in the pipe, when the filter element is inserted into the housing.
