摘要:
A filter platform is provided for allowing attachment of an air filter unit thereto. The filter platform includes: a substantially hollow outer housing, the housing forming a chamber within the platform, the housing having a first opening at one end for engaging the platform with a respirator so as to allow air to flow between the chamber and the respirator, and a second opening for engaging the platform with the air filter unit so as to allow filtered air to flow into the chamber. A respirator connection member is located in association with the first opening, the respirator connection member being structured to sealingly engage the first opening to an input of the respirator, and a filter connection member is located in association with the second opening, the filter connection member being structured to sealingly engage the second opening with the filter unit.

A washable cloth vacuum cleaner filter bag for use on wet/dry vacuum cleaners and in central vacuum cleaner systems includes a first opening for receiving vacuumed debris, means for attaching the first opening to the inlet of the vacuum cleaner or system, and a second opening, which is reversably sealable, for removing the vacuumed debris from the bag. In combination with the bag, the vacuum cleaner or system may be successfully used to suction up fine particulate debris, including gypsum dust and MDF dust. For a preferred embodiment of the new vacuum cleaner filter bag, the bag, which is of generally rectangular shape, is fabricated from a tight weave, synthetic-fiber cloth having a warp of about 160 threads per inch and a weft of about 68 threads per inch. A variety of fastener types may be employed for the reversably sealable second opening. The second opening incorporates a cuff on one side of the opening which is turned inside out to fold over the edge of the other side of the bag.

A mounting collar is for supporting a vacuum cleaner filter bag in a mounted condition over a vacuum cleaner fill tube. The fill tube has a cylindrical outer surface. A panel of the mounting collar is configured to be attached to the filter bag. The panel has a first inner edge defining a first opening for receiving the fill tube. An elastomeric diaphragm of the collar extends across the first opening. The diaphragm has a second inner edge defining a second opening. The second inner edge is configured to be elastically stretched circumferentially about the fill tube and to be in contact with the cylindrical outer surface about the entire circumference of the cylindrical outer surface when the first opening receives the fill tube. A lobe of the diaphragm is defined by the second inner edge and a baseline. The baseline extends from a first point on the second inner edge to a second point on the second inner edge and is located entirely on the diaphragm.

A filter element is includes a cylindrical media pack defining a central open volume and a longitudinal axis; a first end cap having a central aperture in flow communication with the central open volume; and a second, closed end cap having a central region closing an end of the media pack central, open volume. The closed end cap includes a projection extending axially outwardly therefrom and positioned at a location intersected by the longitudinal axis. An end cover for an air cleaner includes an inner side including a central projection thereon. Preferably, the central projection comprises a wall that includes an outer perimeter defining a regular polyhedron having at least five sides. An air cleaner comprises a cylindrical filter element having a first open end cap, a second closed end cap, and a cylindrical media pack extending therebetween. The first end cap defines an internal radial seal region. The second, closed end cap has a central region including a circular recessed portion. The air cleaner also includes an end cover. The end cover includes an inner side including a central projection thereon. The central projection is sized and shaped to matably engage the recessed portion of the second closed end cap, when the filter element is operably installed in the end cover. Methods for installing a filter element in an air cleaner preferably will use constructions as described herein.

Apparatus and methods of supporting and shielding flexible outer bags of vacuum cleaners are disclosed. In one embodiment, a support structure includes a backing plate adapted to be disposed within the flexible outer bag, and at least one support member attached to the backing plate and projecting away from the backing plate. The backing and support members are adapted to contact and extend proximate respective portions of the outer bag, providing three-dimensional support to the outer bag. Alternately, a plurality of airflow apertures may be disposed through the support structure. In another embodiment, a shield structure includes a backing member adapted to be positioned proximate to and extend over at least a portion of a rear panel of an outer bag of a vacuum cleaner. First and second sidewall members are attached to and project away from the backing member, the first and second sidewall members being adapted to be positioned proximate to and extend over at least a portion of corresponding lateral side panels of the outer bag. Alternately, the shield structure may include top and front shielding members.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for separating particulates from a flow of air and particulates in a vacuum cleaner. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a removable vacuum cleaner filter having a flange portion with a flange aperture. A flexible, porous filter element portion is attached to the flange portion and is elongated along a filter axis. The filter element portion has a generally constant cross-sectional area when intersected by a plane generally perpendicular to the filter axis.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for housing a filter element of a vacuum cleaner. In one embodiment, the apparatus can include a housing body elongated along a housing axis. The housing body can include a partially porous material clamped at an upper end to an upper Support and at a lower end to a lower support. The upper and lower supports support the upper housing body relative to the vacuum cleaner. The housing body further includes an aperture for receiving a filter element and can have a generally constant cross-sectional area when intersected by a plane approximately perpendicular to the housing axis.

Dust collector with an assembly of cylindrical and hexahedral bag filters for smooth recovering dust by making a direction of a discharge air flow the same with the direction of free fall of the dust naturally, wherein dirty air is drawn through an upper part of one side of a hexahedral housing having a hopper at a lower part, is guided downward directly, involved in filtering the dust therein by a plurality of cylindrical bag filters, to become a clean air, collected in the cylindrical bag filters and the hexahedral bag filters, and discharged to a lower part of the housing, while the dust is recovered by a rotary valve.
摘要:
A ring filter comprising a star-shaped folded filtering material and a closure on both front sides thereof in the form of a closed end disc. This closure has a plate-shaped insert forming the central area of the closure and located radially inside the filtering material. The insert is made of a different material from that of the rest of the closure. The invention aims at providing a ring filter than can be rationally produced and that is more resistant and durable. To this end, the ring filter has a radially permeable tubular frame that extends approximately along the entire axial length of the ring filter that borders radially inward on the filtering material; and wherein the plate-shaped insert is connected to the tubular frame and wherein the material of the closure is a foamed plastic.
摘要:
An air cleaner housing for holding a cylindrical filter element and providing a laminar flow of air to a carburetor of an engine. The housing has a bottom plate with an outer peripheral portion and a venturi section radially inward of the outer peripheral portion. A top cover of the housing has a convex section radially inward of a top peripheral portion. The convex section of the top cover is at least partially positioned over the bottom venturi section of the bottom plate.
