FILTER VALVE ASSEMBLY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240033666 titled 'FILTER VALVE ASSEMBLY

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a filter assembly that includes a manifold, a filter housing, a filter medium, and a valve assembly. The manifold has a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, while the filter housing contains the filter medium. The filter medium creates an inner filter chamber and an outer filter chamber between the filter medium and the filter housing. The filter housing is detachably connected to the manifold, allowing fluid to flow from the inlet into the inner filter chamber, through the filter medium, into the outer chamber, and out of the outlet. The valve assembly, mounted inside the manifold, consists of a shut-off valve piston, a shut-off valve spring, and an adaptor ring with an annular outlet seal.

  • The filter assembly includes a manifold, filter housing, filter medium, and valve assembly.
  • The manifold has a fluid inlet and outlet, while the filter housing contains the filter medium.
  • The filter medium creates an inner filter chamber and an outer filter chamber.
  • The filter housing is detachable from the manifold, allowing fluid flow through the filter assembly.
  • The valve assembly includes a shut-off valve piston, shut-off valve spring, and an adaptor ring with an annular outlet seal.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Water filtration systems
  • Oil and fuel filtration systems
  • Air filtration systems

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient filtration of fluids
  • Easy maintenance and replacement of filter medium
  • Prevention of fluid leakage

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved filtration efficiency
  • Simplified filter assembly design
  • Enhanced durability and reliability
  • Easy installation and maintenance


Original Abstract Submitted

a filter assembly includes a manifold having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, a filter housing having a filter medium provided therein. the filter medium defines an inner filter chamber and defining an outer filter chamber between the filter medium and the filter housing, the filter housing being removably attached to the manifold so as to provide a fluid flow path from the inlet into the inner filter chamber, through the filter medium into the outer chamber and out of the outlet. the filter assembly also has a valve assembly mounted inside the manifold. the valve assembly also includes a shut off valve piston and a shut off valve spring arranged in engagement with the valve piston to bias the valve piston into a first position and an adaptor ring located between the shut off valve piston and the filter housing and provided with an annular outlet seal.
