A pivoting space region 150, which is swept by the securing device 120, in particular by the base element 128 of the securing device 120, in the movement from the first securing position to the second securing position and vice versa, thus has recesses of the Pivoting space area 150, which are caused by the recesses 148 of the securing device 120.

The nozzles 146 of the compressed air device 144 are thus also not a movement of the securing device 120 in the way, if the nozzles 146 are at least partially disposed in these recesses in the pivot space region 150 of the securing device 120.

Furthermore, it can be provided that the securing device 120, in particular the basic element 128 of the securing device 120, comprises further recesses 148 for further elements in the receptacle 104.

As in particular Fig. 5, the securing device 120 comprises, in particular, a grid 152, which has a multiplicity of passage openings 154.

In particular, the base 128 includes a grid 152.

Furthermore, it can be provided that the blocking element 138 comprises a grid 152.

As further fig. 5, the blocking element 138 also comprises recesses 148, in order to also be able to move the blocking element 138 past the nozzles 146 of the compressed air device 144.

The passage openings 154 in the base element 128 and / or in the blocking element 138 are in particular dimensioned such that a reaching through the securing device 120, in particular by the basic element 128 of the securing device 120, is impossible.

Nevertheless, a view is made possible by the securing device 120 by means of the passage openings 154 in the grid 152. In particular, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 illustrated first securing position of the securing device 120 through the access opening 112 is a look into the interior 116 of the receptacle 104 possible.

Furthermore, in the case of FIG. 2 illustrated second securing position of the securing device 120 is a look at the action device 110 possible.

The filter device 100 described above functions as follows:

In a filtering operation of the filter device 100, the filter device 100 is supplied with a crude gas stream contaminated with paint overspray.

The raw gas stream is supplied with a filter aid to clean the raw gas stream.

To separate the paint overspray from the raw gas stream, the paint overspray together with the filter aid material is deposited on the filter elements 102 of the filter device 100 and arrives as a system consisting of paint overspray and filter aid material after a cleaning of the filter elements 102 into the receptacle 104.

By means of the action device 110 of the receptacle 104, the system of paint overspray and filter aid material, for example, ground up, whirled up and / or removed.

For inspection purposes or for maintenance or cleaning work, the interior 116 of the receptacle 104 is accessible through an access opening 112.

In filter operation of the filter device 100, the access opening 112 is closed by means of the closure element 126. In order to gain access to the interior 116 of the receptacle 104, therefore, the closure element 126 must first be opened.

By means of the securing device 120, access to the interior 116 of the receiving container 104 is blocked even when the closure element 126 is open when the securing device 120 is arranged in the first securing position.

In this case, a view into the interior 116 of the receptacle 104 is possible through the grid 152 of the securing device 120.

For example, in order to remove contaminants from the side walls 114 of the receptacle 104 during operation of the filter device 100, in particular the action device 110, the securing device 120 can be brought from the first securing position to the second securing position.

When the securing device 120 is arranged in the second securing position, the inner space 116 of the receiving container 104, in particular the inner space 116a of the funnel-shaped portion 106 of the receiving container 104, is accessible through the access opening 112.

Thus, contaminants may be cleaned from the sidewalls 114 of the receptacle 104.

At the same time, however, by means of the securing device 120, access to the securing region 118 of the inner space 116, in which the acting device 110 is arranged, is blocked.

Access to the exposure device 110 while it is in operation can be effectively prevented by means of the securing device 120. The securing device 120 can be brought in particular without tools from the first securing position into the second securing position. The movement of the securing device 120 takes place, for example, manually or automatically.

To further increase the safety of the receptacle 104 can be provided that the securing device 120 can be locked by means of at least one locking element 122 in the first securing position and / or in the second securing position.

Furthermore, it can be provided that by means of one or more securing devices 136 a position, for example an end position, of the securing device 120 can be determined, in particular in order to be able to switch off the acting device 110 in the presence of a position deviating from a predetermined position of the securing device 120.

By using a securing device 120 in a receptacle 104, thus a very reliable and safe operation of the receptacle 104 and thus also of the filter device 100

be guaranteed.

An alternative embodiment of a filter device 100 shown in FIG. 6 essentially differs from the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 5 in that the blocking element 138 and the base element 128 are pivotally connected to one another by means of a hinge device 156, wherein the hinge device 156 is a Hinge cover 158 includes.

By means of the hinge cover 158, a direct environment of the hinge device 156 is preferably covered, so that the undesired introduction of foreign bodies and / or body parts, in particular fingers, into the region of the hinge device 156 is effectively prevented. By means of the hinge cover 158 can thus be prevented in particular that a person accidentally engages in the operation of the securing device 120 in the region of the hinge device 156 and injured in a pivoting of the blocking element 138 relative to the base member 128. In particular, pinching of the person's fingers can preferably be prevented.

For example, the hinge cover 158 may be a component that is different from the base element 128 and the blocking element 138 and that is arranged on the blocking element 138 and / or on the base element 128.

However, it can also be provided that the hinge cover 158 is part of the blocking element 138 and / or the base element 128.

The hinge cover 158 is formed in particular by overlapping at least two closely adjoining and relatively movable elements, so that in particular no body parts between the two elements can be introduced.

Incidentally, the alternative embodiment of the filter device 100 shown in FIG. 6 is identical in construction and function to that shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 illustrated embodiment, so that reference is made to the above description in this respect.

A further alternative embodiment of a filter device 100 shown in FIGS. 7 to 13 differs from that shown in FIGS. 1 through 5, essentially in that the securing device 120 comprises a projection 160.

The projection 160 is disposed on the blocking element 138 of the securing device 120. In particular, the projection 160 is formed as a pin 162 which projects from the blocking element 138 substantially perpendicular to a plane in which the blocking element 138 extends.

In the securing position of the securing device 120 illustrated in FIGS. 7 and 8, in which the securing device 120 rests against a side wall 114 of the filter device 100, in particular the receiving container 104 of the filter device 100, the projection 160, in particular the mandrel 162, protrudes from the Side wall 114 away and into the interior 116 of the receptacle 104 inside.

In the in Figs. 9 and 10 illustrated securing position, in which the base member 128 of the securing device 120 is oriented substantially horizontally, the blocking element 138 is substantially horizontally aligned on the base member 128 on. The protrusion 160 arranged on the blocking element 138, in particular the mandrel 162, also projects into the interior 116 of the receiving container 104 in this securing position.

The securing positions of the securing device 120 illustrated in FIGS. 7 to 10 are preferably the only two securing positions in which the securing device 120 can be stably arranged.

The blocking element 138 is either folded away from the base element 128 (see FIGS. 7 and 8) and the securing device 120 is arranged in the substantially vertical securing position or it is provided that the blocking element 138 rests on the base element 128 and both elements 128, 138 are arranged in the substantially horizontal securing position (see Figs. 9 and 10).

An intermediate position of the securing device 120 (see FIGS. 11 and 12), in which the blocking element 138 rests on the base element 128 and yet is not arranged in the substantially horizontal position, is an unstable position of the securing device 120. The instability of this position is achieved by means of the projection 160, in particular of the mandrel 162, which comes into abutment in this intermediate position on the side wall 114 of the receptacle 104 and thereby prevents a center of gravity of the securing device 120 is guided over the pivot axis 124.

In the intermediate position shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, the center of gravity of the securing device 120 thus remains on the side of the pivot axis 124 on which it is already in the position shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 illustrated horizontal securing position was arranged.

Due to the protrusion 160 and the acting force of gravity, the securing device 120 always automatically falls back from the intermediate position shown in FIGS. 11 and 12 into the essentially horizontal securing position shown in FIGS. 9 and 10.

Only by unfolding the securing device 120, that is, by pivoting the blocking element 138 relative to the base member 128, the projection 160 is brought into a position in which it folds the securing device 120 from the substantially horizontal securing position in the substantially vertical Securing position no longer hindered.

The embodiment of the filter device 100 shown in FIGS. 7 to 13 is particularly advantageous when the blocking element 138 is dimensioned larger than the access opening 112, so that the blocking element 138 can not prevent the closing of the access opening 112 by means of the closure element 126.

As can be seen, in particular, from a comparison of FIGS. 7 to 12, the projection 160 of the securing device 120 is, on the one hand, moved into a blocking position. ment (see FIGS. 9 to 12) and on the other hand in a release position (see FIGS. 7 and 8) can be brought.

In the blocking position, the securing device 120 can not be brought from the substantially horizontal securing position in the substantially vertical securing position.

The movement of the securing device 120 from the substantially horizontal securing position into the substantially vertical securing position is thus blocked.

In particular, thus in the blocking position of the projection 160 of

Swivel space area 150 of the securing device 120 limited.

In contrast, in the release position of the projection 160, the securing device 120, in particular the base element 128, can be brought from the one securing position into the further securing position. In particular, the securing device 120, in particular the base element 128, can be brought from the essentially horizontal securing position into the substantially vertical securing position.

As particularly shown in FIG. 13, the securing device 120 preferably comprises a blocking element 138, which comprises a grip device 164, for example a grip recess 166.

The gripping device 164 is designed in particular as a recess 168 in the blocking element 138.

The recess 168 results, for example, by enlarging through openings 154 of the blocking element 138 formed as a grid 152, for example by removing individual webs 170 of the grid 152 delimiting the through openings 154 or omitting them during production. In other (not shown) embodiments of the securing device 120 may also be provided that the handle device 164 is formed as an additional element on the securing device 120, in particular on the blocking element 138. This additional element may be for example a handle or a handle.

Furthermore, it can be provided that an additional gripping device 164 is arranged on the base element 128 or that only the base element 128 comprises or has a gripping device 164.

Incidentally, the in Figs. 7 to 13 shown further alternative embodiment of the filter device 100 in terms of structure and function with the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, so that reference is made to the above description in this regard.
