Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
A slip-on filter assembly comprising an elongated, hollow, tubular core having openings in its circumferential wall, a fitting configuration at one end of said core and formed and adapted for securing said core to a fixed structure, circumferential lands surrounding the external surface of said core at axially spaced points thereon, said openings being located between said lands, the opposite end of said core being closed, a filter element structure slidably received on and slidably removable from said core, said filter element structure having a length less than that of said core and seal elements carried by said filter element structure and sealingly engaging the circumferential external surfaces of said lands, said lands including ramp areas bordering said circumferential surfaces and inclined toward said core for initial contact by said seal elements, said filter element structure being out of contact with said core except through said seal elements.
