TLDR
In this article, a multi-level, resin-impregnated, pleated, paper product filter assembly has spaced annular arrays of normally stable, pleats resiliently flexible circumferentially, a helical spring circumjacent between adjacent apices of the pleated arrays to resist collapse of paper product filters due to radial forces between adjacent filter levels and providing two-stage filtration.Abstract:
A multi-level, resin-impregnated, pleated, paper product filter assembly having spaced annular arrays of normally stable, pleats resiliently flexible circumferentially, a helical spring circumjacent between adjacent apices of the pleated arrays to resist collapse of paper product filters due to radial forces between adjacent filter levels and providing two-stage filtration in which the outer filter array comprises a filter pore size effecting first stage filtration of generally larger solids foreign matter, and the second or inner filter array provides second stage filtration of relatively finer foreign particles; in which perforated inner and outer cylindrical shells stabilize the filter cartridge or assembly in which the outer shell includes a plurality of spaced circumferentially disposed series of perforations to equalize pressure over the outer surface of the outer filter element; and in which an end cap and resilient seal combine with the outer and inner shells to coaxially clamp and insure against short-circuiting of the liquid being filtered.read more

Wrap member having openings
TL;DR: In this paper, a pleated filter element has longitudinally extending pleats and a wrap member wrapped around the filter element, which has openings for increasing the dirt capacity of the filter.
Patent
Filter with over-laid pleats in intimate contact
TL;DR: In this paper, a cylindrical filter with first and second end surfaces is described, where the pleats are in a laid-over state in which the first surface of each leg is in intimate contact with an adjoining leg.
Patent
Membrane cleaning with pulsed airlift pump
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of cleaning a membrane surface immersed in a liquid medium with a fluid flow, including the steps of providing a randomly generated intermittent or pulsed fluid flow along the membrane surface to dislodge fouling materials therefrom, is described.
Patent
Liquid filter with separate and calibrated vapor release
TL;DR: In this article, a change interval plugging indicator is provided by a gas trap and pressure responsive release mechanism, which traps gas in the upper section of the inlet chamber until a designated release pressure is reached, corresponding to a desired terminal pressure.
Patent
Filter coalescer cartridge
TL;DR: A filter coalescer cartridge for treating jet fuels comprising spaced apart filter/coalescer layers to effectively remove particulate contaminants and water from the transient fuel being treated is described in this article.
