Filter element clamp assembly for securing inlet filters
A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20230311043A1) describes a filter element clamp assembly for an air inlet system. The assembly includes a filter wall, a filter plate, at least one inlet filter attached to the filter plate, and a plurality of filter element clamps attached to the filter wall. Each filter element clamp is designed to secure the filter plate to the filter wall, thereby securing the inlet filter in the air inlet system.
The filter plate in the assembly has multiple apertures, each of which is formed to attach an inlet filter with the filter plate. This allows for easy attachment and removal of the inlet filters.
Each filter element clamp in the assembly is substantially curved in shape. This design ensures a secure and tight fastening of the filter plate to the filter wall.
The filter element clamp comprises a clamping member, a threaded fastener, and a hardware nut. This combination of components allows for easy and efficient fastening of the filter plate to the filter wall.
The assembly includes four filter element clamps. This number of clamps ensures a strong and stable attachment of the filter plate to the filter wall, providing reliable security for the inlet filters.
The patent also describes a method for securing an inlet filter in an air inlet system using the filter element clamp assembly. The method involves using at least one clamp attached to the filter wall to clamp a filter plate with the attached inlet filter to the filter wall.
Similar to the assembly, the method involves using a filter plate with multiple apertures for attaching the inlet filters. The method also utilizes substantially curved filter element clamps for secure fastening.
The method includes the use of a clamping member, a threaded fastener, and a hardware nut for each filter element clamp. This ensures a strong and reliable attachment of the filter plate to the filter wall.
Overall, this patent presents a filter element clamp assembly and a method for securing inlet filters in an air inlet system. The assembly and method provide a secure and efficient way to attach and secure the filters, ensuring optimal performance of the air inlet system.
