The direct current type air filter element is commonly used in air filter, which is clamped and sealed (or axial sealed) and mainly composed of medium package, shell, frame member and sealing member. The existing manufacturing process mainly includes: firstly, the medium package 3 is placed in the shell and the bottom end is abutted on the corresponding position of the bottom of the shell; then, the frame member is placed on the upper end of the medium package and the bottom surface is abutted on the corresponding position of the top of the medium package, at this time, the gap is left between the frame member and the shell; then, the corresponding sealing member is formed by foaming polyurethane material at the corresponding position. During the forming process, the polyurethane material is filled into the gap between the frame member, the medium package 3 and the shell and bonds the three together to form the integral sealing member structure. The above technical solution has high positioning matching degree requirement between the frame member, the medium package and the shell, improves the complexity of the frame member and the shell structure design, improves the process requirement of the sealing member forming, thereby greatly increases the processing cost of the direct current type air filter element and seriously reduces the economic benefit of the production.
