TUBE-SHAPED PLEATED FILTER MEMBER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240033674 titled 'TUBE-SHAPED PLEATED FILTER MEMBER
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a tube-shaped pleated filter member that consists of a filter body and a support unit. The filter body has a tube shape with pleated outer portions and inner portions. The inner pleated portions are connected by an inner virtual line that has a repeated unit wave shape. The thickness of the filter member at the maximum distance between the inner virtual line and the outer virtual line is defined as a first thickness (t), which is determined by the diameter (d) of the outer virtual line.
- The patent application describes a tube-shaped pleated filter member with a unique design.
- The filter body is pleated and wound, with outer pleated portions and inner pleated portions.
- The inner pleated portions are connected by an inner virtual line with a unit wave shape.
- The thickness of the filter member is determined by the diameter of the outer virtual line.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Air filtration systems in HVAC systems and industrial settings.
- Water filtration systems in residential and commercial settings.
- Oil and gas filtration in industrial processes.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient filtration of air, water, or other fluids.
- Increased surface area for capturing and removing contaminants.
- Improved durability and longevity of the filter member.
Benefits of this technology:
- Higher filtration efficiency due to the pleated design.
- Increased capacity for capturing and retaining contaminants.
- Longer lifespan and reduced maintenance requirements.
- Versatile application in various industries and settings.
Original Abstract Submitted
the tube-shaped pleated filter member may comprise: a filter body having a tube shape such that a filter medium is pleated and is wound; and a support unit. the filter body may comprise outer pleated portions corresponding to the outside of the tube shape, and inner pleated portions corresponding to the inside of the tube shape. an inner virtual line connecting corners of the inner pleated portions may have the shape in which a unit wave shape recessed in the outward direction is repeated. assuming, that the thickness at a part having the maximum distance between the inner virtual line and the outer virtual line is a first thickness (t), the first thickness (t) may have a range defined by [equation 1] with regard to the diameter (d) of the outer virtual line.
