Abstract: A filtering apparatus is described in which a filter assembly is encapsulated in a flexible, pliable, light weight shell and is removable as a unit from the filter housing without manually contacting filter media and/or liquid. The filter housing comprises a manifold and a cylindrical casing joined together to form a cavity for receiving the cartridge. The manifold further includes inlet and outlet conduits extending therethrough. The filter cartridge comprises a pair of cylindrical shells interconnected at their open ends, with the interior of the shells forming a cavity for receiving a filter assembly. The end plane of one of the cylindrical shells includes a pair of tubular extensions extending into the inlet and outlet conduits of the manifold. The two cartridge shells are made of plastic or other suitable material and are sufficiently flexible to bear against the side walls of the housing cavity during operation. In one embodiment, the mating ends of the cartridge shells are coupled by a telescoping connection and bonded. In another embodiment, the ends of the cartridge shells form mating annular flanges which are bonded together and further secured between two shoulders formed by the interconnecting housing members. The filter assembly preferably comprises a plurality of annular filter pads surrounding a perforated open ended sleeve and stacked between a pair of annular compression plates. To replace the encapsulated filter cartridge, the manifold and casing are separated and the used filter cartridge is removed as a unit. A new cartridge can be installed within the housing in a similar manner.

Abstract translation: 描述了一种过滤装置，其中过滤器组件被封装在柔性，柔软且重量轻的壳体中，并且可以作为一个单元从过滤器壳体移除而不用手动地接触过滤介质和/或液体。 过滤器壳体包括歧管和连接在一起的圆柱形壳体，以形成容纳盒的空腔。 歧管还包括延伸穿过其中的入口和出口导管。 滤筒包括在其开口端互连的一对圆柱形壳体，壳体的内部形成用于接收过滤器组件的空腔。 一个圆柱形壳体的端面包括延伸到歧管的入口和出口管道中的一对管状延伸部分。 两个筒壳由塑料或其它合适的材料制成，并且在操作期间足够柔软以抵抗壳体腔的侧壁。 在一个实施例中，盒壳的配合端通过伸缩连接并联接。 在另一个实施例中，盒壳的端部形成配合的环形凸缘，它们被结合在一起并进一步固定在由互连壳体构件形成的两个肩部之间。 过滤器组件优选地包括围绕穿孔开口套筒并且堆叠在一对环形压缩板之间的多个环形过滤垫。 为了更换封装的滤芯，歧管和外壳是分开的，所使用的滤芯作为一个单元被移除。 新的墨盒可以以类似的方式安装在外壳内。
