[0012] 1. This highly sealed automotive air filter element solves the problem that existing automotive air filter elements adopt a drawer-type structure. During installation, the air filter element can be installed by pushing it into the housing. Due to the gap between the air filter element and the housing, some air leaks through the gap.

[0013] 2. When the air filter element of the vehicle with strong sealing performance needs to be removed, the nut on the threaded rod is connected through the external handle to drive the threaded rod to rotate in the opposite direction. The threaded rod drives the movable rod to slide back along the guide rail on the inner shell through the connecting rod. During this process, the arc-shaped protrusion on the bottom surface of the elastic spring falls back into the groove on the movable rod, and the space between the movable rod and the elastic spring increases, thereby releasing the squeeze on the elastic spring. The elastic spring returns to its original shape and pulls the movable frame to move inward. The movable frame drives the third sealing gasket away from the inner side of the air filter shell. At the same time, the first sealing gasket is separated from the inner side of the air filter shell, thereby facilitating the removal of the vehicle air filter element.

The bottom surface of the outer shell 1 is fixed with a bottom frame 4, the inner side of the bottom frame 4 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the inner shell 2, and the bottom surface of the bottom frame 4 is fixed with a first sealing gasket 5. The outer side of the outer shell 1 is rotatably connected with a threaded rod 6, the other end of the threaded rod 6 is fixed with a nut 15, and the outer side of the threaded rod 6 is threadedly connected with a connecting rod 7. Both ends of the connecting rod 7 are fixed with movable rods 8, and the opposite sides of the two movable rods 8 are provided with a slide groove 9. The inner side of the slide groove 9 is slidably connected with a guide rail 10, and one side of the guide rail 10 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the inner shell 2. The top surface of the movable rod 8 is provided with a plurality of grooves 11, and the top surface of the movable rod 8 is also slidably connected with an elastic spring 1 2, a movable frame 13 is provided between the outer shell 1 and the inner shell 2, the bottom surface of the movable frame 13 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the elastic spring 12, a second sealing gasket 14 is fixed to the top surface of the movable frame 13, a third sealing gasket 16 is fixed to the outside of the movable frame 13, the outside of the third sealing gasket 16 is in sliding contact with the inner side of the outer shell 1, the inner shell 2 is located inside the outer shell 1, the filter plate 3 is located inside the inner shell 2, the connecting rod 7 is located between the outer shell 1 and the inner shell 2, the movable rod 8 is located between the outer shell 1 and the inner shell 2, the elastic spring 12 has a wavy line structure, both ends of the elastic spring 12 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the outer shell 1, one end of the threaded rod 6 passes through the interior of the outer shell 1 and is rotatably connected to the outer side of the inner shell 2, and the cross-sections of the slide groove 9 and the guide rail 10 are both T-shaped structures;

[0023] Put the vehicle air filter element into the air filter housing, then connect the nut 15 on the threaded rod 6 through the external handle to drive the threaded rod 6 to rotate, and the threaded rod 6 drives the movable rod 8 to slide along the guide rail 10 on the inner housing 2 through the connecting rod 7. During this process, the groove 11 on the movable rod 8 is disengaged from the arc-shaped protrusion on the bottom surface of the elastic spring 12, so that the arc-shaped protrusion on the bottom surface of the elastic spring 12 contacts the top surface of the movable rod 8, and the space between the movable rod 8 and the elastic spring 12 is reduced, thereby squeezing the elastic spring 12. The elastic spring 12 pushes the movable frame 13 to move outward, and the movable frame 13 pushes the third sealing gasket 16 to fit tightly against the inner side of the air filter housing. At the same time, the reaction force is transmitted to the inner housing 2, and the inner housing 2 pushes the first sealing gasket 5 on the bottom frame 4 to fit tightly against the inner side of the air filter housing, solving the problem that the existing vehicle air filter element adopts a drawer-type structure. During installation, the air filter element can be installed by pushing it into the housing. Due to the gap between the air filter element and the housing, some air seeps through the gap.

[0024] The specific usage and function of this embodiment: The utility model puts the vehicle air filter element into the air filter housing, and then connects the nut 15 on the threaded rod 6 through the external handle to drive the threaded rod 6 to rotate, and the threaded rod 6 drives the movable rod 8 to slide along the guide rail 10 on the inner housing 2 through the connecting rod 7. During this process, the groove 11 on the movable rod 8 is disengaged from the arc-shaped protrusion on the bottom surface of the elastic spring 12, so that the arc-shaped protrusion on the bottom surface of the elastic spring 12 contacts the top surface of the movable rod 8, and the space between the movable rod 8 and the elastic spring 12 is reduced, thereby squeezing the elastic spring 12, and the elastic spring 12 pushes the movable frame 13 to move outward, and the movable frame 13 pushes the third sealing gasket 16 to fit closely to the inner side of the air filter housing. At the same time, the reaction force is transmitted to the inner housing 2, and the inner The shell 2 pushes the first sealing gasket 5 on the bottom frame 4 to fit tightly against the inner side of the air filter shell. When the air filter element needs to be removed, the nut 15 on the threaded rod 6 is connected through the external handle, thereby driving the threaded rod 6 to rotate in the opposite direction. The threaded rod 6 drives the movable rod 8 to slide back along the guide rail 10 on the inner shell 2 through the connecting rod 7. During this process, the arc-shaped protrusion on the bottom surface of the elastic spring 12 falls back into the groove 11 on the movable rod 8, and the space between the movable rod 8 and the elastic spring 12 increases, thereby releasing the squeeze on the elastic spring 12. The elastic spring 12 returns to its original shape and pulls the movable frame 13 to move inward. The movable frame 13 drives the third sealing gasket 16 away from the inner side of the air filter shell. At the same time, the first sealing gasket 5 is disengaged from the inner side of the air filter shell, thereby facilitating the removal of the vehicle air filter element.
