An air filter element for an air filter may include a first end plate and a second end plate spaced apart from each other in an axial direction and configured to bound the filter element in the axial direction. The first filter body may be arranged axially between the first and second end plates. A second filter body may be arranged axially between the first and second end plates. An intermediate plate may be arranged axially between the first and second filter bodies and have an intermediate plate area enclosed by an intermediate outer contour and a first end plate area enclosed by a first outer contour.

Air filter element

A filter arrangement may include a housing having an untreated space inlet and a clean space outlet and a filter insert configured to attached to the clean space outlet in the housing and to separate a clean space in the interior of the filter insert from an untreated space outside the filter insert. A lining part may be arranged on the filter insert at the clean space, wherein the lining part is configured to form a collection space for dirt retained by the filter wall in the vicinity of the clean space outlet.

Filter arrangment, in particular air filter arrangement

A filter arrangement may include a housing having two front walls substantially extended on both sides of a housing center plane and a circumferential wall connecting the front walls. The housing may include an untreated space inlet and a clean space outlet. A filter insert may be arranged between the inlet and the outlet and include two bottom discs that are adjacent to the side walls in the assembled state of the filter insert. The filter insert may include a filter wall extending between and connecting the bottom discs. The filter wall may extend substantially orthogonal to the housing center plane. A lateral disc may define an opening configured to be tightly connected to at least one of the inlet and the outlet. The front walls may be coupled to the bottom discs in the assembled state of the filter insert through interacting profile parts arranged on at least one of the front walls and the bottom discs into a double wall.

Filter arrangement, in particular air filter arrangement

A filter device is disclosed, including an air filter for a fresh air system of a motor vehicle. The filter device further include a filter housing which contains a receiving space. An annular filter element is inserted into the receiving space. The device also includes a cover for closing the receiving space. The cover is detachably fastened to the filter housing by means of a bayonet catch, so that the cover can be inserted axially into a cover receptacle formed on the filter housing and, when inserted, can be rotated between an unlocking position and a locking position.

Filter device

A filter element may include a first end disc, a second end disc, a filter medium arranged between the first and second end discs, wherein the first and second end discs are spaced by a filter medium. A third end disc may connect the first and second end discs and be arranged obliquely to at least one of the first end disc and the second end disc. The third end disc may include at least one of an inlet and outlet.

Filter element, in particular air filter element

A filter housing may include a filter insert configured to be inserted into the filter housing. The filter insert may have two spaced and opposite base discs and a filter wall configured to connect edge zones of the base discs. The filter insert may be penetrated by an opening connected to at least one of an untreated space inlet and clean space outlet of the housing. The opening is arranged in a flange plate connected in a leakproof manner to the base discs and the flange plate may be connected in a leakproof manner to the filter wall.

Filter insert

A catch box may include two air intake sections of an air intake system, wherein the catch box is embodied as water separator at the same time.

Catch box

The invention relates to a gas intake zone of a separable gas filter housing which removably accommodates a filter element. The gas intake zone is used as a prefilter and comprises a plurality of axially adjacent, axially impinged cyclone collectors that are provided with respective spin generators in the inlet zones thereof and gas-discharging immersion tubes at the discharge end within annular ducts which are located between the immersion tubes and the respectively associated outer cyclone walls while being used for pre-separating dirt particles separated in an outer radial direction in the individual cyclones by means of centrifugal forces, the immersion tubes being axially dipped into the interior of the cyclone collectors.
