Beschreibungdescription
Stand der TechnikState of the art
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Filterelement, insbesondere zur Flüssigkeitsfilterung, und ein Verfahren zu dessen Herstellung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a filter element, in particular for filtering liquids, and a method for its production according to the preamble of claim 1.
Es ist ein Filterelement beispielsweise aus der DE 94 03 868.6 U1 mit einer zick-zack-förmig gefalteten Filterbahn bekannt, bei dem die Filterbahn sternförmig zusammengelegt ist. Der dadurch gebildete Hohlzylinder wird radial von außen von der zu filternden Flüssigkeit angeströmt und die gefilterte Flüssigkeit wird zentral aus dem Filterelement herausgeleitet.A filter element is known, for example, from DE 94 03 868.6 U1 with a zigzag-folded filter web, in which the filter web is folded in a star shape. The resulting hollow cylinder is flowed radially from the outside by the liquid to be filtered and the filtered liquid is led out of the filter element centrally.
Das Material der Filterbahn ist bei dem bekannten Filterelement Papier, Filz oder ein Kunststoffvlies, wobei diese Filterelemente als auswechselbarer Einsatz in ein entsprechendes Filtergehäuse eingefügt werden. Nach einer bestimmten Betriebszeit weisen diese Filterelemente mit dem bekannten Filtermaterial keine ausreichende Filtereigenschaft mehr auf und müssen ersetzt werden.In the known filter element, the material of the filter web is paper, felt or a plastic fleece, these filter elements being inserted as a replaceable insert in a corresponding filter housing. After a certain operating time, these filter elements with the known filter material no longer have sufficient filter properties and must be replaced.
AufgabenstellungTask
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Filterelement der eingangs genannten Art so fortzubilden, dass bei einem beibehaltenem einfach Aufbau eine große Lebensdauer des Filterelements erreicht werden kann.The invention has for its object to develop a filter element of the type mentioned in such a way that a long life of the filter element can be achieved with a simple structure retained.
BESTATIGUNGSKOPIE Vorteile der ErfindungCONFIRMATION COPY Advantages of the invention
Das erfindungsgemäße Filterelement ist, insbesondere für die Anwendung als Flüssigkeitsfilter in einem Kraftfahrzeug, mit den Merkmalen des Kennzeichens des Anspruchs 1 dadurch vorteilhaft, dass mit einem Filtervlies, das Metalloder Glasfaser enthält, eine außerordentlich große Lebensdauer, gegebenenfalls sogar entsprechend der Lebensdauer des angeschlossenen Aggregats, ermöglicht wird. Hierdurch wird auch die Konstruktion des Filtergehäuses vereinfacht, da eine Auswechslung des Filterelements nicht mehr notwendig ist.The filter element according to the invention is advantageous, in particular for use as a liquid filter in a motor vehicle, with the features of the characterizing part of claim 1 in that with a filter fleece which contains metal or glass fiber, an extraordinarily long service life, possibly even corresponding to the service life of the connected unit, is made possible. This also simplifies the construction of the filter housing, since it is no longer necessary to replace the filter element.
Um nach wie vor einen Aufbau des Filterelements, vorzugsweise sternförmig mit Zick-Zack-Falten, in vorteilhafter Weise zu ermöglichen, ist die Filterbahn aus vorgeprägten Filtervliesplatten oder aus einer aufgerollten Filtervliesbahn hergestellt und anhand der Vorprägung werden die Einzelflächen der Zick- Zack-Form im Herstellungsprozess herausgebildet. Somit kann dauerhaft ein mechanisch stabiles Filterelement gebildet werden, das die Vorteile der relativ großen Filteroberfläche auch bei einer Sternfaltung, bezogen auf den jeweiligen Bauraum, beibehält und damit nicht auf die, für sich gesehen bekannte Mehrlagenanordnung mit diversen Vliesmaterialien zurückgegriffen wird.In order to continue to enable the filter element to be constructed, preferably in a star shape with zigzag folds, the filter web is made from pre-embossed filter fleece plates or from a rolled-up filter fleece web and the individual surfaces of the zigzag shape are imprinted on the basis of the embossing Manufacturing process formed. Thus, a mechanically stable filter element can be permanently formed, which retains the advantages of the relatively large filter surface even with a star fold, based on the respective installation space, and therefore does not fall back on the multi-layer arrangement, known per se, with various nonwoven materials.
Mit einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform des Filtervlieses, das vollständig aus Metallfasern besteht, können Filterbahnen von ca. 1 mm Dicke in verschiedenen Porenfeinheiten und Faserdicken, insbesondere aus Edelstahlfasern, hergestellt werden. Auch eine Verwendung von gesintertem Metallfaservlies ist vorteilhaft. Das Metallfaservlies eignet sich besonders zum Einsatz im thermisch beanspruchten Ölfilterbereich, wobei die Fasern eine ausreichende Kapazität aufweisen um die Schmutzpartikel über eine lange Lebensdauer zu speichern ohne zu verspröden.With an advantageous embodiment of the filter fleece, which consists entirely of metal fibers, filter webs of approximately 1 mm thickness can be produced in various pore sizes and fiber thicknesses, in particular made of stainless steel fibers. The use of sintered metal fiber fleece is also advantageous. The metal fiber fleece is particularly suitable for use in the thermally stressed oil filter area, whereby the fibers have sufficient capacity to store the dirt particles over a long service life without becoming brittle.
In einer Mischform kann gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform das Filtervlies mit unterschiedlichen Metallfaserdurchmessern in einlagiger Ausführung für bestimmte Filtervliesanordnungen gewichts- und preisgünstiger eingesetzt werden. Bei einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Filterelements als Glasfaservlies kann dieses in vorteilhafter Weise ein- oder beidseitig mit Polyesterfasern kaschiert bzw. beschichtet werden. Hierdurch ist eine Rillierung oder sonstige Prägung auf einfache Weise durchführbar und das Glasfaservlies kann ohne zusätzliches Schutzvlies auf der An- oder der Abströmseite und gegebenenfalls auch ohne Stützgewebe zu einem Sternfalt-Filterelement verarbeitet werden.In a mixed form, according to a further embodiment, the filter fleece with different metal fiber diameters can be used in a single-layer design for certain filter fleece arrangements in terms of weight and cost. In another preferred embodiment of the filter element as a glass fiber fleece, it can advantageously be laminated or coated on one or both sides with polyester fibers. As a result, grooving or other embossing can be carried out in a simple manner and the glass fiber fleece can be processed to form a star-fold filter element without additional protective fleece on the upstream or downstream side and, if appropriate, also without supporting fabric.
Eine gute Stabilität der Stern- bzw. Zick-Zack-Faltung ist auf einfache Weise erreichbar, wenn die Vorprägung aus quer zur Faltkante verlaufenden Rillungen oder sonstigen Prägearten jeweils innerhalb einer Einzelfläche der Filterbahn besteht. Die Vorprägungen können jeweils auch entlang der gewünschten Faltkanten für eine einfache mechanische Verarbeitung des Rohmaterials der Filterbahn vorgesehen werden.Good stability of the star or zigzag fold can be achieved in a simple manner if the pre-embossing consists of grooves or other types of embossing running transversely to the folded edge within a single area of the filter web. The knockouts can also be provided along the desired folded edges for simple mechanical processing of the raw material of the filter web.
Das erfindungsgemäße Filterelement der oben beschriebenen Ausführungsformen kann bevorzugt im Hydraulikbereich, im Schaltgetriebebereich, im Schmieröl- oder Kraftstofffilterbereich eines Kraftfahrzeuges oder auch bei der Wasserfiltration oder bei der Filtrierung von aggressiven Medien eingesetzt werden. Es sind in der Regel bei einer geeigneten Faserdicke keine zusätzlichen Feinfilter notwendig.The filter element according to the invention of the embodiments described above can preferably be used in the hydraulic area, in the manual transmission area, in the lubricating oil or fuel filter area of a motor vehicle or also in water filtration or in the filtration of aggressive media. With a suitable fiber thickness, no additional fine filters are generally necessary.
Diese und weitere Merkmale von bevorzugten Weiterbildungen der Erfindung gehen außer aus den Ansprüchen auch aus der Beschreibung und den Zeichnungen hervor, wobei die einzelnen Merkmale jeweils für sich allein oder zu mehreren in Form von Unterkombinationen bei der Ausführungsform der Erfindung und auf anderen Gebieten verwirklicht sein und vorteilhafte sowie für sich schutzfähige Ausführungen darstellen können, für die hier Schutz beansprucht wird. ZeichnungThese and further features of preferred developments of the invention are evident from the claims and also from the description and the drawings, the individual features being implemented individually or in groups in the form of subcombinations in the embodiment of the invention and in other fields, and can represent advantageous and protectable versions for which protection is claimed here. drawing
