Vacuum pump filter silencer combination

Abstract

A container device having both a silencer chamber and an air filter chamber disposed within it and inlet and outlet conduits to each chamber and the two chambers compliment each other by the filter chamber providing acoustic qualities for the silencer chamber and the silencer chamber providing harmonic vibration to the filter chamber for filter cleaning assistance.

What is claimed  
     
         1 . A container device having both, a silencer chamber and an air filter chamber disposed within it and inlet and outlet conduits to each chamber.  
     
     
         2 . A container device according to  claim 1  whereby the filter chamber has a filter media disposed within it capable of self-cleaning its self of filtered refuge when vibrated.  
     
     
         3 . A container device as described in  claim 1  or  2  whereby the filter media is vibrated by harmonics created by the silencer chamber.  
     
     
         4 . A container device as described in  claim 1  whereby the filter media is vibrated by a mechanical vibrator being a piston vibrator, a ball vibrator, or a rotary vibrator.  
     
     
         5 . A container device as described in  claim 1  where by a packed acoustic filter media is disposed within the filter chamber.  
     
     
         6 . A container device as described in  claim 1  where by a dehydrator media is disposed within the filter chamber.  
     
     
         7 . A container device according to  claim 1  where by two or more filter chambers are dispersed within the container.  
     
     
         8 . A container device according to  claim 1 ,  2 ,  3 ,  4 ,  5 ,  6 , or  7  whereby the silencer chamber has a baffle system disposed within it.  
     
     
         9 . A container device according to claim  1 - 8  whereby the silencer chamber has an acoustic material disposed within it.  
     
     
         10 . A container device according to claims  1 - 9  whereby the container is constructed of an acoustic substance.
