Abstract
A filter subassembly, having a first screen comprising a fabric that has mesh elements, the mesh size of which determines how effectively particles are prevented from penetrating therethrough, wherein a second screen is provided at a distance from the first screen, and the two screens are arranged in series.
Claims5
A filter subassembly for hydraulic motor vehicle brake systems, the filter subassembly comprising:
- a first cylindrical screen comprising:
- a first plurality of mesh elements oriented in an axial direction of the first cylindrical screen;
- a closed bottom disposed as a first base of the first cylindrical screen coupled to the first plurality of mesh elements;
- and
- a plurality of annular bars disposed radially on an outer circumference of the first plurality of mesh elements at distances corresponding to a mesh length of the first plurality of mesh elements;
- and
- a second cylindrical screen comprising:
- a second plurality of mesh elements oriented in a radial directions of the second cylindrical screen,
- a plurality of longitudinal bars disposed in an axial direction of the second cylindrical screen on an outer circumference of the second plurality of mesh elements at distances corresponding to a mesh length of the second plurality of mesh elements;
- and
- a collar disposed around a coaxial opening at a second base of the second cylindrical screen opposite of the first base of the first cylindrical screen,
- wherein the second cylindrical screen is fitted coaxially inside the first cylindrical screen and a height of the plurality of longitudinal bars corresponds to a radial clearance between the first plurality of mesh elements and the second plurality of mesh elements.
