Abstract

A filter arrangement may include a housing having an untreated space inlet and a clean space outlet and a filter insert configured to attached to the clean space outlet in the housing and to separate a clean space in the interior of the filter insert from an untreated space outside the filter insert. A lining part may be arranged on the filter insert at the clean space, wherein the lining part is configured to form a collection space for dirt retained by the filter wall in the vicinity of the clean space outlet.

Claims (23)

1. A filter arrangement, comprising: a housing having an untreated space inlet and a clean space outlet and a filter insert configured to be attached to the clean space outlet in the housing, a filter wall of which separates a clean space in the interior of the filter insert from an untreated space outside the filter insert in the interior of the housing, a lining part arranged on the filter insert at the clean space outlet, the lining part having an open end facing the untreated space inlet and a closed end facing the clean space outlet, wherein the lining part is configured to form a collection space for dirt retained by the filter wall in the vicinity of the clean space outlet.

2. The filter arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the lining is formed as a drawer configured to be pushed onto the filter insert.

3. The filter arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the lining part is configured to be clipped to the filter insert.

4. The filter arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the lining part is non-detachably connected to the filter insert.

5. The filter arrangement according to claim 2 , wherein the filter insert has two substantially parallel base discs connected at their mutually opposite edge zones by the filter wall, wherein the filter wall is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the base discs and penetrated by an opening connected to the clean space outlet.

6. The filter arrangement according to claim 5 , wherein the opening is arranged in a flange plate connected to the base discs.

7. The filter arrangement according to claim 6 , wherein the lining is inserted into guides on the base discs and configured to be latched on the flange plate.

8. The filter arrangement according to claim 7 , further comprising a transverse wall configured to position the drawer in a target position close to the clean space outlet, the transverse wall having an edge facing the filter insert configured to interact with a counter-latching element on the drawer-side edge of the flange plate in order to fix the drawer.

9. A filter insert for a filter arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the lining part is formed as at least one of an integral and detachable component of the filter insert.

10. The filter arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the filter insert has two substantially parallel base discs connected at their mutually opposite edge zones by the filter wall, wherein the filter wall substantially perpendicular to the plane of the base discs and penetrated by an opening connected to the clean space outlet.

11. The filter arrangement according to claim 10 , wherein the opening is arranged in a flange plate connected to the base discs.

12. The filter arrangement according to claim 11 , wherein the lining is inserted into guides on the base discs and configured to be latched on the flange plate.

13. The filter arrangement according to claim 12 , further comprising a transverse wall configured to position the drawer in a target position close to the clean space outlet, the transverse wall having an edge facing the filter insert configured to interact with a counter-latching element on the drawer-side edge of a flange plate in order to fix the drawer.

14. A filter arrangement, comprising:

a housing having an untreated space inlet and a clean space outlet;

a filter insert configured to be attached to the clean space outlet in the housing, the filter insert having a filter wall separating a clean space in the interior of the filter insert from an untreated space outside the filter insert in the interior of the housing, wherein the filter insert has two substantially parallel base discs connected at their mutually opposite edge zones by the filter wall, wherein the filter wall is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the base discs and penetrated by an opening connected to the clean space outlet, where in the opening is arranged in a flange plate connected to the base discs; and

a lining part arranged on the filter insert at the clean space outlet, wherein the lining part forms a collection space for dirt retained by the filter wall in the vicinity of the clean space outlet, wherein the lining is inserted into guides on the base discs and configured to be latched on the flange plate.

15. The filter arrangement according to claim 14 , further comprising a transverse wall configured to position the drawer in a target position close to the clean space outlet, the transverse wall having an edge facing the filter insert configured to interact with a counter-latching element on the drawer-side edge of a flange plate in order to fix the drawer.

16. A filter arrangement, comprising:

a housing having an untreated space inlet and a clean space outlet;

a filter insert configured to be attached to the clean space outlet in the housing, the filter insert having a filter wall separating a clean space in the interior of the filter insert from an untreated space outside the filter insert in the interior of the housing, wherein the filter insert has two substantially parallel base discs connected at their mutually opposite edge zones by the filter wall, wherein the filter wall is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the base discs and penetrated by an opening connected to the clean space outlet, where in the opening is arranged in a flange plate connected to the base discs; and

a lining part arranged on the filter insert at the clean space outlet, the lining part formed as a drawer configured to be pushed onto the filter insert, wherein the lining part forms a collection space for dirt retained by the filter wall in the vicinity of the clean space outlet, wherein the lining is inserted into guides on the base discs and configured to be latched on the flange plate.

17. The filter arrangement according to claim 16 , further comprising a transverse wall configured to position the drawer in a target position close to the clean space outlet, the transverse wall having an edge facing the filter insert configured to interact with a counter-latching element on the drawer-side edge of the flange plate in order to fix the drawer.
