Abstract: The invention relates to a liquid filter, especially an oil filter, for cleaning lubricating oil, especially for internal combustion engines of automobiles, comprising an upright filter housing which contains a receiving area for a ring-shaped filter insert that is inserted into said receiving area, an inlet channel for unclean liquid, an outlet for clean liquid, and an additional discharge channel which is exposed when the ring-shaped filter insert is removed. An eccentrically projecting pin is moulded to a lower end plate and sealingly penetrates an opening of the discharge channel when the ring-shaped filter insert is introduced into the filter housing. According to the invention, a ramp is configured on the floor of the receiving area and is positioned in such a way that when the ring-shaped filter insert is introduced into the filter housing, the pin lies on said ramp and when the ring-shaped filter insert is rotated about its longitudinal axis, the pin slides downwards along the ramp and enters the opening of the discharge channel at the lower end of the ramp. This improves handling.

Abstract: A substantially clog-resistant self-supporting fluid filter 100 for attachment to an open end of flow tube 118. Filter 100 comprises a substantially cylindrically shaped grid or fluid intake portion 102 having first end 112 and a second end 116. Fluid intake portion 102 comprises a plurality of substantially parallel longitudinal ribs 106 affixed to a plurality of substantially parallel circular ribs 108 at an angle to longitudinal ribs 106 thereby allowing a fluid to flow therebetween while preventing passage of debris intermixed with the fluid. Longitudinal ribs 106 and circular ribs 108 are substantially rigid such that they cooperate to be structurally self-supporting. End cover 114 is affixed to first end 112. Filter 100 further comprises tube receiving portion 104, which is affixed to or integral with second end 116 and is configured such that flow tube 118 engages tube receiving portion 104 in a secure, slidable manner.

Abstract: A filter assembly (20) is described that includes a sub-stantially recyclable filter cartridge (30) inside a pressure vessel (22). The invented filter cartridge comprises substantially non-pressure bearing walls, except for a pressure-bearing neck (44) that is adapted to with-stand high pressures preferably in the range of about 500 psi (34,47. 105 Pa) from the inside. The walls of the filter cartridge that are incapable of withstanding significant internal pressure are surronded on the outside by a pressure vessel (22). The invented cartridge need not seal et the pressure vessel, because the cartridge neck (44) protrudes outside of the pressure vessel (22) to seal directly to a filter head. The, cartridge preferably includes a quick-disassembly mechanism for allowing quick and non-destructive access to the internal components and media of the cartridge.

Abstract: A method an apparatus for filtering water dispensed by a water dispensing appliance comprises a low-profile filter cartridge releasably connected to a manifold assembly. The manifold assembly is in communication with the wafer inlet to the appliance and routs the filtered water to points of use in the appliance. The manifold assembly includes water usage sensor to monitor filter cartridge life and relay that information to the appliance, which will then alert the user when it is necessary to replace the filter. A latching mechanism is included to releasably secure the filter cartridge to the manifold assembly. A flow control valve ensures that the water circuit remains closed when the filter cartridge is removed from the manifold assembly. The cartridge and manifold assembly include registration features to ensure that reverse installation of the cartridge will not occur.

Abstract: An oil filter assembly includes a filter housing and a release valve for regulating oil drainage from a filter chamber in the filter housing. A filter module is arranged in the filter chamber to engage the release valve. A first biasing element normally moves the release valve to an opened position allowing drainage of oil from the filter chamber to urge the filter module to cause the release valve to move against and overcome a biasing force generated by the first biasing element to the closed position when the filter module is installed in a oil-filtering position in the filter housing.
