Filter lip seal and method

Fluid filter

A filter for use in engines or transmissions is provided comprising an inlet-side cover having a wave-like region along the periphery of the inlet-side cover, an outlet-side cover having a wave-like region along the periphery of the outlet-side cover where the outlet-side cover wave-like region is in a complementary alignment with the inlet-side cover wave-like region and filter media fixed in a non-planar configuration between the wave-like regions of the inlet-side and outlet-side covers.

Non-planar media transmission filter apparatus and method

A filter for use in engines or transmissions is provided comprising an outlet-side cover having a first wave-like region along the periphery of the outlet-side cover, a filter media tray having a second wave-like region along the periphery of the filter media tray wherein the filter media tray second wave-like region is in a generally complementary alignment with the first wave-like region of the outlet-side cover, a filter media fixed in a non-planar configuration between the first wave-like region of the outlet-side cover and the second wave-like region of the filter media, and an inlet-side cover joined to the outlet-side cover, wherein the filter media and the filter media tray is between the inlet-side cover and the outlet-side cover.

Non-planar media transmission filter apparatus and method with tray

A lid for a container is provided generally comprising a main body and a door having a flip section pivotally connected to a push section, the push section pivotally connected to the main body. The main body includes a recess that defines a pivot wall. The flip section is positioned to engage the pivot wall and rotate relative to the push section in response to downward pressure on the push section. The floor of the recess includes a dispensing hole sized to dispense large items. Preferably, the dispensing hole is sized to accommodate a person's fingers while gasping an item. Additionally, the flip section of the door includes a sealing ring projecting from the underside of the door. The sealing ring is sized to engage the inner periphery of the dispensing hole to provide a seal to preserve organic or other perishable items.

Container lid with flip door

A lid for a container is provided generally comprising a main body and a door having a flip section pivotally connected to a push section, the push section pivotally connected to the main body. The main body includes a recess that defines a pivot wall. The flip section is positioned to engage the pivot wall and rotate relative to the push section in response to downward pressure on the push section. A detent mechanism is used to control opening the door in at least two stages. In the first stage, the detent mechanism substantially fixes the push section in a closed position, and in the second stage substantially fixes the push section in an open position. In one embodiment, the floor of the recess is sloped to increase container space and limit flexure of the push section of the door.
