Definitions

  • the invention concerns a filter for filtering liquids, in particular fuel, of an internal combustion engine, in particular of a motor vehicle, comprising a housing with at least one inlet for liquid to be filtered and at least one outlet for filtered liquid, comprising a coaxial filter element that comprises a filter medium with an interior in which at least one support body for supporting the filter medium is coaxially arranged and that is arranged in the housing in such a way that it separates the at least one inlet from the at least one outlet.
  • the invention concerns a filter element of a filter for filtering liquids, in particular fuel, of an internal combustion engine, in particular of a motor vehicle, that can be arranged in a housing with at least one inlet for the liquid to be filtered and at least one outlet for filtered liquid in such a way that it separates the at least one inlet from the at least one outlet and that comprises a coaxial filter medium with an interior in which at least one support body for supporting the filter medium is coaxially arranged.
  • the filter insert for a liquid filter.
  • the liquid filter can serve for purifying fuels for an internal combustion engine.
  • the filter insert is comprised of a star-shaped folded filter element that is resting with its inner circumference on a support pipe provided with cutouts. End disks of plastic material embed seal-tightly the filter element at its upper and lower end.
  • the support pipe which is serving as a support for the filter element is divided into two parts perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
  • the partial members are formed as one piece together with the end disks.
  • the filter element is not supported across its entire length by the two-part support pipe.
  • the invention has the object to design a filter and a filter element of the aforementioned kind in which the filter medium is stabilized better in particular against radial force actions.
  • the filter medium is mounted coaxially on a central tube that is fast with the housing and in that an inner support body, arranged between the radial inner circumferential side of the filter medium and the central tube, comprises a plurality of support webs which are distributed in axial direction and in circumferential direction across the inner support body and which serve for supporting the filter medium at least radially on the central tube.
  • the inner support body serves for bridging gaps between the radial inner circumferential side of the filter medium and the exterior side of the central tube.
  • the filter medium is supported directly on the inner support body.
  • a further body in particular a support pipe and/or a further filter layer, in particular a coalescing layer, is arranged, the filter medium can also be supported indirectly by means of this body on the inner support body.
  • the central tube can advantageously be fastened stably in particular in a filter cup of the housing.
  • the central tube can be designed as a component lasting a life time.
  • the inner support body prevents that the filter medium collapses in radial inward direction. Accordingly, even great radial forces that are acting on the filter medium can be transmitted by the support body onto the central tube.
  • the filter medium is stabilized along its entire extension.
  • the filter medium remains stable with regard to its shape even when high pressures occur. Accordingly, the filter medium can also be used in filters, in particular in fuel filters, that do not have a bypass valve and therefore may be exposed to a maximum pressure generated within the liquid system.
  • the inner support body can be arranged in a space-saving way even within tight mounting spaces.
  • the inner support body can advantageously be realized as a separate component. In this way, the filter element and the housing can be assembled of modules.
  • an appropriate inner support body can be selected that, in this way, may also function like an adapter.
  • the inner support body can also be connected fixedly with the filter element so that it is a component of the filter element.
  • At least one of the support webs can extend in axial direction.
  • the at least one support web can extend in axial direction across the entire length extension of the filter medium. In this way, a support of the filter medium uniformly along its entire axial extension is possible.
  • Axial webs require little mounting space.
  • Axial support webs can be realized with a material expenditure that is minimal in relation to their surface that is effective for the support action.
  • a media support body can be arranged on which, on a radial outer side, directly or indirectly the radial inner circumferential side of the filter medium and, on a radial inner side, the support webs can be supported.
  • the media support body can be a support pipe which is radially permeable for liquids.
  • the support pipe can be a part of the filter element. It can be fixedly connected with the filter medium. In addition or as an alternative, it can be connected with appropriate end disks of the filter element.
  • the media support body can be a support pipe with stays arranged like a grid, in particular axial stays and/or circumferential stays, and the stays can be arranged such that they can abut against the support webs.
  • a grid-like support pipe can be realized in a simple way. It is stable in axial direction as well as in circumferential direction. Grid openings between the stays realize passages which, in comparison to the liquid-impermeable areas of the stays, can be large. The pressure loss at the support pipe between the inlet side and the outlet side can thus be minimized.
  • solid stay bodies great radial forces can be transmitted so that, together with the support webs, they can provide a good support between the radial inner circumferential side of the filter medium and the central tube.
  • the circumferential and axial distribution of the stays of the support pipe and the distribution of the support webs can be matched to each other.
  • a corresponding stay of the support pipe can rest on each support web.
  • the expansion of the support webs in circumferential direction and in axial direction can be optimized accordingly. In this way, material can be saved. Also, in this way, the liquid-impermeable areas covered by the stays and therefore the pressure losses between clean side and raw side of the filter element can be minimized.
  • the inner support body may advantageously comprise a separating medium for separating water from fuel, in particular a screen-like medium.
  • the separating medium can advantageously be a hydrophobic medium that repels water. Accordingly, water can be retained at the radial outer side of the separating medium. Only the fuel can pass through the separating medium. The retained water can sink in a precipitation gap between the separating medium and the filter medium downwardly or, should the density of the fuel be greater than that of water, can migrate upwardly. The separated water can be collected and removed from the housing.
  • the screen-like separating medium can be realized in a simple way.
  • the inner support body and the separating medium can be made of plastic material.
  • the support webs and the separating medium can be monolithic. In this way, the manufacturing process can be simplified.
  • the support webs can support the separating medium.
  • the separating medium itself can thus be realized in a material-saving way and with minimal weight even with thin wall thicknesses.
  • the separating medium can even be produced of a material that by itself is not shape-stable and that is supported by means of the support webs.
  • the support webs in particular axial support webs, can extend in radial direction on both sides (on an inner side and an outer side in radial direction) of the separating medium.
  • the support webs provide additionally the function of spacers so that between the separating medium and the filter medium, on the one hand, and the separating medium and the central tube, on the other hand, a radially and circumferentially extending gap can be delimited, respectively.
  • circumferentially extending support webs are preferably configured to be more flat in radial direction so that they do not form a barrier for the downwardly flowing water or the upwardly flowing fuel.
  • a coalescing medium can be arranged radially between the inner support body, optionally the media support body, and the filter medium.
  • the coalescing medium can serve for separating water that is contained in the fuel.
  • At the coalescing medium in flow direction downstream of the filter medium, even smallest water droplets which are contained in the fuel can be combined to larger water drops.
  • the fine water droplets can be retained at the coalescing medium and grow to large drops until they are entrained by the fuel flow and carried away from the coalescing medium.
  • the removed water drops in flow direction downstream of the coalescing medium, can then sink downward in a gap between the coalescing medium and the central tube, or optionally the separating medium, or, inasmuch as the density of the fuel is greater than that of water, can migrate upwardly and can be collected.
  • the coalescing medium is designed as a coil, i.e., comprises at least one coiled layer.
  • the filter medium can be folded in a zigzag shape. With a zigzag-shaped folded filter medium an optimal ratio between separating surface and required mounting space can be realized.
  • the filter element can be a round filter element which can be arranged in a space-saving way and can be mounted in a simple way.
  • the housing can be openable and the filter element can be arranged exchangeably in the housing. Accordingly, the filter element can be removed from the housing for servicing purposes and/or cleaning purposes. The filter element can thus be replaced simply with a new filter element.
  • the filter element in that an inner support body is designed such that the filter element can be mounted coaxially on a central tube that is fast with the housing and the inner support body comprises a plurality of support webs distributed across the inner support body for supporting the filter medium at least radially on the central tube.
