A recharge and filter assembly (10) includes a housing (12) with a removable recharge and filter cartridge (142). The housing (12) includes a canister (13) with a re-movable cover (14) allowing access to the cartridge (42). The cartridge (42) includes a filter element (43) comprising a ring of media (45) and upper and lower end caps (50, 52). The upper end cap (50) carries a peripheral seal (86) which provides a fluid-tight seal with the housing canister (13). An annular channel (97) is provided between an annular portion (66) of the upper end cap (50) and the seal (86). An annular support member (100) from the cover (12) is received in the annular channel (97) to support the upper end cap (50). Latching fingers (74) on the upper end cap (50) and a mating ring (78) on the cover (12) removably couple the cartridge (42) to the cover (12). The cartridge (42) further includes a recharge canister (44) supported by tabs (120, 130) on the upper and lower end caps (50, 52). Fluid is recharged by the recharge canister (44), while particulates and other contaminants are removed by the filter media (45).

L'invention concerne un ensemble (10) de recharge et de filtrage comprenant un carter (12) renfermant une cartouche (142) de recharge et de filtrage amovible. Ledit carter (12) comprend un réservoir (13) équipé d'un couvercle amovible (14) permettant l'accès à la cartouche (42). La cartouche (42) renferme un élément de filtrage (43) constitué d'un milieu filtrant (45) de forme annulaire et des coiffes (50, 52) d'extrémité supérieure et inférieure. La coiffe (50) d'extrémité supérieure comporte un joint périphérique (86) constituant un joint étanche aux fluides avec le réservoir (13) du carter. Un canal annulaire (97) est ménagé entre une partie annulaire (66) de la coiffe (50) d'extrémité supérieure et ledit joint (86). Un élément de support (100) annulaire dépassant du couvercle (12) vient se loger dans ledit canal annulaire (97) de manière à assurer le support de la coiffe (50) d'extrémité supérieure. Des doigts (74) de verrouillage situés sur la coiffe (50) d'extrémité supérieure et une bague correspondante (78) située sur le couvercle (12) permettent le couplage amovible de la cartouche (42) au couvercle (12). Ladite cartouche (42) renferme, en outre, un réservoir (44) de recharge reposant sur des languettes (120, 130) sur les coiffes (50, 52) d'extrémité supérieure et inférieure. Le fluide est rechargé par le réservoir (44) de recharge, tandis que les particules et autres contaminant sont éliminés par le milieu filtrant (45).
