Abstract
Apparatus for filter cleaning including a filter element surface (12) to be cleaned, and a cleaning head (10), characterised by a controller (16) operative to move the cleaning head (10) with respect to the filter element surface (12) in a spiral scanning trajectory in such a way that a relative path of the cleaning head (10) with respect to the filter element surface (12) results in a trajectory that fully, or partially covers the filter element surface (12) and is produced by moving the filter element surface (12) in any combination of the following motions: a) one or more circular or semi-circular motions, b) one or more linear motions; while moving the cleaning head (10) in any combination of the following motions: c) one or more circular or semi-circular motions, d) one or more linear motions.
Claims12
Apparatus for filter cleaning comprising:
- a filter element surface to be cleaned;
- and
- a cleaning head;
- characterised by a controller operative to move said cleaning head with respect to said filter element surface in a spiral scanning trajectory in such a way that a relative path of said cleaning head with respect to said filter element surface results in a trajectory that fully, or partially covers said filter element surface and is produced by moving said filter element surface in any combination of the following motions:
- a) one or more circular or semi-circular motions, b) one or more linear motions;
- while moving said cleaning head in any combination of the following motions:
- c) one or more circular or semi-circular motions, d) one or more linear motions.
A method for filter cleaning characterised by:
- moving a cleaning head with respect to a filter element surface in a spiral scanning trajectory in such a way that a relative path of said cleaning head with respect to said filter element surface results in a trajectory that fully, or partially covers said filter element surface and is produced by moving said filter element surface in any combination of the following motions:
- a) one or more circular or semi-circular motions, b) one or more linear motions;
- while moving said cleaning head in any combination of the following motions:
- c) one or more circular or semi-circular motions, d) one or more linear motions.
