Abstract
A filter assembly comprises a filter case having an opening end portion; a filter element inserted into the filter case; a set plate mounted to the opening end portion of the filter case and having an inlet and an outlet of fluid to be filtered; and a seal plate attached to the set plate and fixed to the opening end portion of the filter case by curling up an outer periphery portion thereof together with an edge portion of the opening end portion of the filter case. The set plate is mounted to the filter case with press fitting to ensure the mechanical contact to prevent the leakage of the fluid to be filtered. Thus, the filer assembly can effectively prevent leakage of fluid of high pressure, such as AT-fluid introduced therein.
