Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a filter and a method of forming the filter which includes two layers of filtering media and outer plastic ribs that form a flat structure. When the ribs are moved towards each other, the two layers of filtration media are separated apart to form a cylindrical filtration structure for mounting to a connecting unit.
Abstract:
A sock style filter is disclosed that incorporates the embossing of filtration media to create rigid raised geometry embodiments that prevent collapse between the upper and lower filtration media sides of the filter to maintain and ensure a flow passage of fluid inside the filter for flow to the pump or downstream system. The embossed rigid embodiments keep the filtration media from collapsing under suction and eliminates the use of secondary inserted structures; such as a plastic comb or folded net, or injection mold plastic ribs or bones onto or around the filtration media.
