Problems solved by technology
A disadvantage of conventional cabin air filters is that, although many believe cabin air filters are generally considered highly efficient, conventional cabin air filters generally have relatively low Minimum Efficiency Reporting Values (MERVs) and thus allow gaseous molecular contamination prevent pollutants and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from entering the vehicle passenger compartment
Also, many manufacturers do not list MERV ratings for their cabin air filters, misleading many users into assuming that cabin air filters are HEPA filters
[0006] Another disadvantage of conventional cabin air filters is that dirty or clogged cabin air filters are typically removed from the vehicle and discarded, and a new cabin air filter is then installed

Embodiment Construction
[0027]In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present disclosure. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that the invention disclosed herein may be practiced without these specific details. In other cases, a specific numerical reference may be used, such as "first filter". However, specific numerical references should not be interpreted as a literal sequential order, but should be interpreted as different from the "first filter" than the "second filter". Accordingly, the specific details set forth are examples only. Specific details may be changed and still be considered within the spirit and scope of the present disclosure. The term "coupled" is defined to mean connected directly to a component or indirectly connected to a component through another component. Also, as used herein, the terms "about," "approximately," or "approximately" for any numerical value or range indicate...

Abstract
An apparatus and method are provided for a cabin air filter to remove gaseous molecular pollutants and volatile organic compounds from the passenger compartment of a vehicle. The cabin air filter includes a support frame configured to properly orient the cabin air filter within the vehicle's ventilation system. The support frame includes a shape and size suitable for supporting the cabin air filter within the ventilation system. The filter media is held within the support frame and is configured to remove gaseous molecular pollutants and volatile organic compounds from air flowing through the ventilation system. The filter media electrostatically attracts and agglomerates contaminants within the air flowing through the air filter. In some embodiments, the filter media includes fibers treated with antimicrobial molecules configured to destroy microorganisms. In some embodiments, the filter media includes fibrous material configured to release fragrance into the passenger compartment.
Description
[0001] priority [0002] This application claims the benefit of and priority to US Patent Application No. 14 / 668,772, filed March 25, 2015, entitled "Cabin Air Filters." technical field [0003] The field of the disclosure generally relates to filter devices. More specifically, the technical field of the invention relates to apparatus and methods for cabin air filters to remove gaseous molecular pollutants and volatile organic compounds from the air in the passenger compartment of a vehicle. Background technique [0004] An air filter is a device, usually comprising fibrous material, configured to remove solid particles, such as dust, pollen, mold and bacteria, from the air passing through the air filter. Air filters are used in applications where air quality is important, especially in building ventilation systems, in engines and in vehicle passenger compartments. [0005] The cabin air filter is usually a pleated paper filter which is placed in the outside air intake for...
