An air cleaner assembly, a main filter element, a safety element, combinations and methods for servicing an air cleaner assembly are provided according to the present invention. The air cleaner assembly includes an air cleaner housing and a main filter element. The air cleaner housing includes a safety liner that supports the main filter element, and can be configured to help reduce the tendency of the main filter element to rotate during use of the air cleaner assembly. A safety element having two open ends, for use with such an assembly is described.

1. A safety air filter element for use with an air cleaner also having a main air filter cartridge therein; the safety air filter element being configured to be positioned under the main air filter cartridge, in use; the safety air filter element comprising: (a) air filtration media surrounding an open filter interior and having first and second, opposite, media ends;(b) the first end of the air filtration media surrounding a central air flow aperture and having a radially outwardly directed housing seal member that surrounds the air filtration media; and,(c) an end cap at the second end of the air filter media having a portion molded to the air filter media; the end cap including a portion projecting across the open filter interior, from the air filter media, to a location surrounding an aperture that extends therethrough. 2. A combination of a safety air filter element and a main air filter cartridge, for use in an air cleaner; the combination comprising: (a) a safety air filter element having: (i) air filtration media surrounding an open filter interior and having first and second, opposite, media ends;(ii) the second end of the air filtration media of the safety air filter element having an end cap with a portion molded to the air filter media of the safety air filter element; the end cap including a portion projecting across the open filter interior, from the safety air filter media, to a location surrounding an aperture therethrough; and,(b) a main air filter cartridge separate from the safety air filter element and comprising: (i) first and second, opposite, end caps;(ii) air filtration media surrounding a media open interior and positioned in extension between the first and second ends of the main air filter cartridge; the second end cap of the main air filter cartridge including a portion projecting toward the first end cap of the main filter cartridge to a location surrounded by air filtration media of the main filter cartridge;(iii) the first end cap of the main air filter cartridge having a central aperture therethrough; and,(iv) a radially inwardly directed housing seal positioned on the first end cap of the main filter cartridge;(v) the safety air filter element being separable from the main filter cartridge and being sized and shaped to project into the media open interior of the main filter cartridge with a portion of the end cap on the second end of the air filtration media of the safety air filter element surrounding a portion of the second end cap, of the main filter cartridge, that projects toward the first end cap of the main filter cartridge. 3. A combination according to claim 2 wherein: (a) the second end cap of the main air filter cartridge is closed and includes an axially outwardly directed recess on an inner surface thereof. 4. An air cleaner assembly comprising: (a) an air cleaner housing defining an interior;(b) a safety liner positioned in the air cleaner housing; (i) the safety liner having an end adjacent the air flow outlet and an opposite end remote from the air flow outlet;(c) a safety air filter element removably positioned on the safety liner; the safety air filter element comprising: (i) air filtration media structure surrounding an open filter interior and having first and second media ends; (A) an end cap at the second media end of the air filtration media of the safety air filter element; the end cap at the second end of the safety air filter media having a portion molded to the media; the end cap also including a portion projecting across the open filter interior, from the media, to a location surrounding an aperture therethrough; and,(B) the safety filter element being positioned over the safety liner: with the second end of the safety filter element projecting to a location remote from the air flow outlet; and, with a portion of the end of the safety liner, remote from the air flow outlet, projecting through the aperture in the portion of the end cap at the second end of the media of the safety air filter element. 5. An air cleaner assembly according to claim 4 including: (a) a main air filter cartridge removably positioned over the safety air filter element. 6. An air cleaner assembly according to claim 5 wherein: (a) the main air filter cartridge includes a closed end cap having an axially outwardly directed recess on an inner surface thereof. 7. An air cleaner assembly according to claim 4 including: (a) a main air filter cartridge removably positioned over the safety air filter element and over the safety liner, the main air filter cartridge comprising: (i) first and second, opposite, end caps;(ii) media surrounding an open filter interior and positioned in extension between the first and second end caps;(iii) the first end cap of the main air filter cartridge having an aperture therethrough and including a radially inwardly directed housing radial seal thereon; the housing radial seal being releasably sealed to the housing; and,(iv) the second end cap of the main air filter cartridge being a closed end cap and having a portion thereon directed toward the first end cap of the main air filter cartridge to a location surrounding a portion of the safety liner.
