ABSTRACT:
A disposable, oil filter cartridge is described. The cartridge comprises a shell of circular outline within which a stack of interconnected filter discs of octagonal outline are held in preloaded, compressed condition by an end cap attached to the outer, or open, end of the shell. The stack of filter elements has a plurality of tortuous passageways through which oil flows and is discharged, after filtration, centrally of the stack of filter elements, through the end cap. A compression spring maintains the integrity of the tortuous passageways which might otherwise be lost due to the expected reduction in thickness of the filter elements during use. A second embodiment of the invention illustrates a similar cartridge in which the filter discs are of hexagonal outline which facilitates their fabrication from a sheet of filter material.
