Datatable filter doesn't work

Why filtering by name column doesn't work? Could somebody help with that?

There is an input with id="name" which should filter values by name column of the table. But it doesn't work. What is wrong?

HTML:

<div>
    <input type="text" id="name" name="name" placeholder="Name">
</div>    
<table id="shTable" class="table table-striped table-bordered dataTable no-footer dtr-inline" role="grid" aria-describedby="shTable_info">
    <thead class="">
        <tr>
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Position</th>
            <th>Office</th>
            <th>Age</th>
            <th>Start date</th>
            <th>Salary</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
</table>

JavaScript:

<script>
    $.fn.dataTable.ext.search.push(
        function( settings, data, dataIndex ) {
            var max = parseInt( $('#max').val(), 10 );
            var name = $('#name').val();

            var age = parseFloat( data[3] ) || 0; // use data for the age column
            var name_table = (data[0]);

            if ( isNaN( max ) || ( age <= max ) || ( isNaN( max ) ) || ( age <= max ) || name_table.indexOf(name) > -1 )
            {
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }
    );

    $(document).ready(function() {
        var table = $('#shTable').DataTable();

        // Event listener to the two range filtering inputs to redraw on input
        $('#max, #name').keyup( function() {
            table.draw();
        } );
    } );

</script>
