DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a filter material, and particularly to a filter material suitable for oil filters, air filters, etc. of internal combustion engines.

The requirements for a filtration material used in automobile oil filters and air filters are that it has filtration performance that effectively removes fine particles such as dust present in the fluid to be filtered, and that it remains palatable for a long period of time. It is especially important to continue to maintain filtration performance.

From this point of view, various filtration media have been proposed in the past, but conventional filtration media are not necessarily fully satisfactory in terms of simultaneously improving filtration performance and prolonging the service life. It's not a thing.

For example, a filter material is known in which a density gradient is provided in the thickness direction of the filter paper by combining filter papers with different fiber densities (for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 40778/1983).

These density gradient type filter media are formed so that the flow of the fluid to be filtered changes from coarse to dense in the direction from the flow side to the downstream side, so large particles are captured in the low density layer and the Although fine particles are trapped in the density layer, a good sieve fraction is excellent in that it is effective and can improve the life to some extent, but it has the following drawbacks.

(b) In conventional density gradient type filter media, the flow velocity when passing through the filter media is high, making it difficult for dust to adhere and be captured by mere contact, and the dust is firmly captured so that it penetrates into the deep layer ( (so-called deep filtration), the problem is that the filter media is easily clogged, leading to increased pressure loss.

(b) In conventional filter media, the porosity of the surface of the filter media on the upstream side of the fluid to be filtered is large, so dust is easily incorporated into the surface layer of the filter media, resulting in the formation of a dust cake layer on the surface layer of the filter media. The drawback is that it is difficult. Therefore, a filtration function (that is, a primal filter function) cannot be expected by the cake layer, and there are major limitations in L, which aims to increase the life of the cake layer.

In order to achieve the above object, the filter medium of the present invention is characterized in that the back surface of the filter medium is provided with irregularities, and a raised layer is formed on the surface of the filter medium on the upstream side of the flow of the fluid to be filtered. There is.

As shown in the cross-sectional conceptual diagram of FIG. 1, the filter material of the present invention is
Irregularities are provided on the back side of the base material 1 of the filtration material, and a raised layer 2 is provided on the surface of the base material on the upstream side of the flow of the fluid to be filtered (in the direction of the arrow in the figure), and this constitutes a raised layer. ing.

In this way, the filtration material of the present invention has a raised layer formed on the upstream side of the fluid to be filtered, so that dust is easily captured by this raised layer like rime, and a dust cake layer is easily formed on the raised layer. By utilizing the filtration action (brimal filter function) of this cake layer, the filtration performance can be further improved.

In addition, the said raised layer can be normally comprised in the state where the edge part of structure IIH of a filter medium protrudes from the surface of a filter medium, and is fluffed. The nap from the surface is sufficient to easily collect coarse dust particles and form a dust cake layer, and the density of the nap does not necessarily have to be as dense as that of a lawn. For example, if the dust size is 5 to 70
When it is a microscopic trace, the length of the protruding part of the fiber is 80 to 300
μ is sufficient.

Further, in the manufacturing process, by providing an uneven shape on the surface or back surface of the filter material, it is possible to easily form a density gradient in the filter material.

The filter media shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 are examples in which density gradients are provided in both the thickness direction and surface direction of the filter media. That is, in the thickness direction of the base material 1, there is a density gradient such that the diameter of the pores 3 gradually decreases from the inlet side to the outlet side of the fluid, and furthermore, in the surface direction of the filter material, the pore diameter also decreases. A small high-density portion and a low-density portion with a large pore diameter are provided in the convex portion and the concave portion, respectively. Therefore, first of all, since there is a density gradient in the thickness direction,
It is possible to capture large-sized dust particles in the low-density layer, and sequentially capture smaller-sized particles as you move downstream.
A good sieve content is effective and can increase the amount of dust retained.

Furthermore, since the high-density portions with relatively small pore diameters and the low-density portions with large pore diameters are uniformly distributed in the surface direction of the filter medium, dust capture can progress in stages. I can do it. In other words, clogging due to dust trapping occurs first in high-density areas and then moves to low-density areas, making it possible to prevent a sudden increase in pressure loss compared to when the density in the planar direction is constant. , it is possible to achieve a longer pufferfish life. Furthermore, since fine particles are removed more easily in the high-density layer, and large particles are more likely to be removed in the lower-density layer, filtration performance can be improved by appropriately selecting the density range and area ratio of both layers. It is possible to aim for the direction t. Further, the density difference in the planar direction may be changed continuously or stepwise.

Furthermore, although not shown, in FIG. 2, it is advantageous to provide unevenness on the upstream side of the fluid in order to improve the filtration performance. In other words, in general, large particles accumulate in low-density areas, and small particles tend to be captured in high-density areas. By keeping the level of the dust cake layer constant, the flow rate ratio of the uneven portion can be kept constant and the filtration performance can be improved.
