Abstract

Abstract A filter including a cylindrical filter element which is arranged to normally have fluid pass therethrough. A bypass valve is provided to bypass fluid directly to the outlet when the pressure at the inlet becomes excessive. A magnetized helical coil is provided adjacent the filter element to attract metal particles.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 157 words
The method of forming a magnetized helical coil of wire which has a plurality of alternating north and south poles along its entire length which comprises placing a helical coil having a plurality of convolutions on a core with adjacent convolutions of said helical coil spaced from one another, engaging a first pole of a DC coil with the exposed radial sides of the convolutions of said helical coil at a first set of longitudinally spaced points along the length of the helical coil, engaging a second pole of said DC coil with the exposed radial sides of the convolutions of said helical coil at a second set of longitudinally spaced points along the length of said helical coil, applying a force to said first and second poles to clamp said convolutions of said helical coil between said core and each of said poles, and applying a DC voltage across said poles to produce a magnetic field.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 157 words
The method of forming a magnetized helical coil of wire which has a plurality of alternating north and south poles along its entire length which comprises placing a helical coil having a plurality of convolutions on a core with adjacent convolutions of said helical coil spaced from one another, engaging a first pole of a DC coil with the exposed radial sides of the convolutions of said helical coil at a first set of longitudinally spaced points along the length of the helical coil, engaging a second pole of said DC coil with the exposed radial sides of the convolutions of said helical coil at a second set of longitudinally spaced points along the length of said helical coil, applying a force to said first and second poles to clamp said convolutions of said helical coil between said core and each of said poles, and applying a DC voltage across said poles to produce a magnetic field.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method set forth in claim 1 wherein said first and second sets of points each comprises at least one row extending axially of said helical coil.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 29 words
The method set forth in claim 1 wherein said first and second sets of points each comprise at least two circumferentially spaced rows extending axially of said helical coil.
