FILTER, USE OF FILTER ELEMENT IN FILTER, FILTER ELEMENT, AND MOTOR VEHICLE

A filter has a filter housing with a filter housing cover coupled to a filter housing part to close a receiving space configured to receive a first filter element and a second filter element each provided with a filter medium body and a frame device around the filter medium body. The filter housing has a radially projecting, circumferential contact shoulder in the receiving space. The filter housing cover, when mounted, exerts an axial clamping force on the frame device of the first filter element. The clamping force is transmitted through the frame device of the first filter element to the frame device of the second filter element. The frame device of the second filter element has a circumferential seal with a hollow chamber profile pressed by the clamping force on the contact shoulder to seal-tightly contact the contact shoulder.
