ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for filtering particulate material from air and for removing the particulate material collected upon a filter is disclosed. The apparatus includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet. A hollow longitudinally extending filter is secured within the housing for filtering particulate material from the air passing from the inlet to the outlet. The hollow filter has a relatively rigid configuration but still is capable of being distorted. The hollow filter is formed of a pleated porous material. One longitudinal end of the filter is secured relative to the housing and a closure plate is secured to the other longitudinal end. A mechanism is provided for moving the plate to distort the filter and remove particulate material collected thereon.
