An air filter for a fresh air system of an internal combustion engine may include a filter housing, a filter element, and an inner frame. The filter housing may include a housing pot, a housing lid, a raw air inlet, and a pure air outlet. The filter element may include an annular filter body, a first end plate, and a second end plate. The second end plate may include an annular first seal bearing sealingly against the housing pot, an annular second seal bearing sealingly against the inner frame, and at least one of at least one first annular web and at least one second annular web. The first seal may be coupled on a free end side of the at least one first annular web. The second seal may be coupled on a free end side of the at least one second annular web.

Air filter

An air filter for a fresh air system of an internal combustion engine may include a filter housing including a housing lid and a filter element arranged exchangeably in the filter housing separating a raw side from a pure side. The filter element may include an annular filter body, a first end plate, and a second end plate. A dust collector space may be disposed in the filter housing on the raw side and may be delimited axially by the housing lid and the first end plate. The housing lid may have a step which may radially delimit the dust collector space. A connection may be disposed in a circumferential section of the dust collector space which is not bordered by the step. The step may have a radial aperture fluidically connecting the dust collector space to a discharge stub, the radial aperture arranged diametrically opposite the connection.

An air filter for a fresh-air system of an internal combustion engine may include a filter housing, a filter element, and an inner shroud. The filter element may be arranged in the filter housing and may include an annular filter body, a first end plate, and a second end plate. The inner shroud may be arranged in the filter housing and may be rotatable about a longitudinal center axis of the filter housing. A first torque coupling may be disposed between the first end plate and an end wall of the inner shroud. The first torque coupling may have a driver contour on an inner side of the first end plate and a counterpart driver contour disposed on an outer side of the end wall. The driver contour may be engaged axially in the counterpart driver contour and facilitate torque transmission between the end wall and the first end plate.
