[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of air filters, and specifically relates to a diesel engine air filter facilitating the replacement of a filter element. Background Art

[0002] The diesel engine air filter is an essential component of a diesel engine, used for filtering the intake air to ensure the cleanliness of the intake air.

[0003] Currently, there are generally two types of diesel engine air filters on the market. One is to only use a honeycomb filter element to filter air. This type of air filter has limited filtering effect on impurities in the air, and the replacement frequency of the filter element is relatively high. The other is a wet-dry combined air filter, which consists of two parts, the upper part is for primary filtration after fresh air enters, and the lower part is for the air initially filtered in the upper part to enter the diesel engine after being re-filtered through an oil bath. However, for this type of wet-dry combined air filter, the primary filtration structure in the upper part is generally through the design of the intake air passage for primary filtration, and the filtering effect on impurities in the air is limited. This results in most impurities needing to be filtered through the oil bath, causing the engine oil in the oil bath chamber to need to be replaced frequently and the use effect is not good. Therefore, this application integrates and improves the existing two types of air filters, and proposes a diesel engine air filter facilitating the replacement of a filter element.
