FIG. 3 is a bottom plan view of the housing of FIG. 1, the outlet tube being shown in broken lines and not being part of the design sought to be patented;

FIG. 4 is a top plan view of the housing of FIG. 1, the outlet tube being shown in broken lines and not being part of the design sought to be patented;

FIG. 5 is a right side elevational view of the housing of FIG. 1;

FIG. 6 is a left side elevational view of the housing of FIG. 1, the outlet tube being shown in broken lines and not being part of the design sought to be patented;

FIG. 7 is a second front side elevational view of the housing according to the embodiment of FIGS. 1-6, depicting an alternate outlet tube angled from the housing and in broken lines and thus showing the outlet tube is not part of the design sought to be patented;

FIG. 9 is front side elevational view of a second alternate embodiment of a housing for an air cleaner, the outlet tube being shown in broken lines and not being part of the design sought to be patented;

FIG. 10 is a back side elevational view of the housing of FIG. 9, the outlet tube being shown in broken lines and not being part of the design sought to be patented;

FIG. 11 is a bottom plan view of the housing of FIG. 9, the outlet tube being shown in broken lines and not being part of the design sought to be patented;

FIG. 12 is a top plan view of the housing of FIG. 9, the outlet tube being shown in broken lines and not being part of the design sought to be patented;

FIG. 13 is a right side elevational view of the housing of FIG. 9;

FIG. 14 is a left side elevational view of the housing of FIG. 9, the outlet tube being shown in broken lines and not being part of the design sought to be patented; the view of FIG. 14 being identical to the view of FIG. 6;

FIG. 15 is a second front side elevational view of the embodiment of FIGS. 9-14 according to the present invention, depicting an alternate outlet tube in broken lines and thus showing that the outlet tube is not a portion of the invention;
