[0061] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the exhaust gas recirculation system in one embodiment of this application; Figure 2 for Figure 1 An exploded view of the connector in the illustrated embodiment.
[0062] See Figure 1-2 The exhaust gas recirculation system 100 provided in one embodiment of this application includes a cooler 10, a venturi tube 20, a connector 30, and a one-way valve 40.
[0063] The outlet of the cooler 10 and the inlet of the venturi tube 20 are spaced apart from each other. A connector 30 is connected between the outlet of the cooler 10 and the inlet of the venturi tube 20. The connector 30 has a first air inlet 30a communicating with the outlet of the cooler 10 and a first exhaust port 30b communicating with the inlet of the venturi tube 20. A one-way valve 40 (see...) Figure 2 The one-way valve 40 is located in the connector 30 and has an intake end 40a that communicates with the first intake port 30a and an exhaust end 40b that communicates with the first exhaust port 30b. The first intake port 30a and the first exhaust port 30b are connected to each other by means of the one-way valve 40.
[0064] The aforementioned exhaust gas recirculation system 100, by incorporating a cooler 10 to cool the exhaust gas before recirculation, lowers the combustion chamber temperature, improves engine efficiency, and reduces combustion emissions. A venturi tube 20 is used to measure exhaust gas flow. A connector 30 connects the outlet of the cooler 10 to the inlet of the venturi tube 20, allowing the exhaust gas, after being cooled by the cooler 10, to enter the connector 30 through its first inlet 30a and then through its first exhaust port 30b. A one-way valve 40 within the connector 30 connects the first inlet 30a and the first exhaust port 30b to prevent backflow, thereby increasing the EGR rate and reducing engine fuel consumption. Furthermore, since the one-way valve 40 is located within the connector 30, the one-way valve 40 is integrated with the connector 30, thus eliminating the need for additional parts for installing the one-way valve 40. This reduces the number of engine parts and makes the exhaust gas recirculation system 100 more compact, easier to arrange, and easier to install.
[0065] Specifically, the venturi tube 20 is configured to calculate the exhaust gas flow rate through temperature and pressure measurements.
[0066] Optionally, the check valve 40 is interference-fitted within the connector 30 to fix the check valve 40 relative to the connector 30.
[0067] In some embodiments, the exhaust gas recirculation system 100 further includes a first clamp (not shown in the figure), and one end of the connector 30 having a first air inlet 30a is connected to the cooler 10 via the first clamp. Thus, the first clamp is provided to provide a tight clamping connection between the end of the cooling pipe having an outlet and the end of the connector 30 having the first air inlet 30a.
[0068] In some embodiments, the exhaust gas recirculation system 100 further includes a second clamp (not shown in the figure), and the end of the connector 30 with the first exhaust port 30b is connected to the venturi tube 20 via the second clamp. Thus, the second clamp is provided to provide a tight clamping connection between the end of the connector 30 with the first exhaust port 30b and the end of the venturi tube 20 with the inlet.
[0069] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1-2As shown, the connector 30 includes a connecting flange 31 and a connecting pipe 32. One end of the connecting flange 31 is connected to the outlet of the cooler 10 and has a first air inlet 30a. The other end of the connecting flange 31 has a connecting flange exhaust port 31a communicating with the first air inlet 30a. One end of the connecting pipe 32 is connected to the end of the connecting flange 31 away from the cooler 10 and has a connecting pipe inlet 32a communicating with the connecting flange exhaust port 31a. The other end of the connecting pipe 32 is connected to the inlet of the venturi tube 20 and has a first exhaust port 30b. A one-way valve 40 is located inside the connecting pipe 32. The inlet end 40a communicates with the connecting pipe inlet 32a, and the exhaust end 40b communicates with the first exhaust port 30b. The connecting pipe inlet 32a and the first exhaust port 30b are connected to each other by means of the one-way valve 40. Thus, by providing the connecting member 30, which includes a connecting flange 31 and the connecting member 30, the connecting flange 31 is used to facilitate connection with the cooler 10, and the connecting pipe 32 is used to facilitate connection with the venturi tube 20. Furthermore, since the one-way valve 40 is located inside the connecting pipe 32, it is easier to assemble the one-way valve 40 inside the connecting pipe 32.
[0070] Figure 3 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the connecting flange in the illustrated embodiment.
[0071] Specifically, in combination Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the end of the connecting flange 31 with the first air inlet 30a is connected to the cooler 10 via the first clamp.
[0072] Figure 4 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the connecting flange in the illustrated embodiment from another perspective; Figure 5 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the connecting pipe in the illustrated embodiment.
[0073] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4-5 As shown, the connecting flange 31 has a first flange 311 at one end with a connecting flange vent 31a, and the first flange 311 surrounds the connecting flange vent 31a. The connecting pipe 32 has a second flange 321 at one end with a connecting pipe inlet 32a, and the second flange 321 surrounds the connecting pipe inlet 32a and abuts against the first flange 311. The connector 30 also includes a plurality of first fasteners 50 respectively passing through the first flange 311 and the second flange 321. In this way, by providing the first fasteners 50, the connecting flange 31 and the connecting pipe 32 can be detachably connected by means of the first fasteners 50, and the connecting flange 31 and the connecting pipe 32 can be easily assembled and disassembled. By providing the first flange 311 on the connecting flange 31 and the second flange 321 on the connecting pipe 32, space is provided for installing the first fasteners 50.
[0074] Specifically, all the first fasteners 50 are spaced apart from each other along the circumference of the connecting flange vent 31a to improve the connection reliability between the connecting flange 31 and the connecting pipe 32.
[0075] In some embodiments, the exhaust gas recirculation system 100 further includes a seal (not shown) disposed between the first flange 311 and the second flange 321 to form a seal between the first flange 311 and the second flange 321, thereby preventing air leakage at the connection between the first flange 311 and the second flange 321.
[0076] Optionally, the first flange 311 has a sealing element mounting groove (not shown in the figure) surrounding the connecting flange vent 31a on the side that mates with the second flange 321, and the sealing element is disposed in the sealing element mounting groove.
[0077] In one embodiment, the seal is an O-ring.
[0078] Figure 6 for Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the connecting pipe in the embodiment shown is viewed from another angle.
[0079] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the axis of the connecting pipe inlet 32a is angled to the axis of the first exhaust port 30b. Combined with... Figure 5-6 As shown, the connecting pipe 32 includes a first pipe body 322 and a second pipe body 323. One end of the first pipe body 322 is connected to the end of the connecting flange 31 that has a connecting flange exhaust port 31a, and it also has a connecting pipe inlet 32a. A one-way valve 40 is disposed inside the first pipe body 322, and the first pipe body 322 extends along the axis of the connecting pipe inlet 32a. One end of the second pipe body 323 is connected to the end of the first pipe body 322 away from the connecting flange 31, and the other end of the second pipe body 323 is connected to the inlet of the venturi tube 20 and has a first exhaust port 30b. The second pipe body 323 extends along the axis of the first exhaust port 30b. It should be noted that, in order to adapt to the arrangement space inside the vehicle 200, the axis of the first air inlet 30a is set at an angle to the axis of the first exhaust port 30b. Therefore, by setting the axis of the connecting pipe inlet 32a at an angle to the axis of the first exhaust port 30b, the connecting pipe 32, which connects the connecting flange 31 and the venturi tube 20, meets the space requirements, thereby further improving the ease of installation of the exhaust gas recirculation system 100 within the vehicle 200. The first pipe body 322 is provided to facilitate the installation of the one-way valve 40, and the second pipe body 323 is provided to connect the first pipe body 322 to the inlet of the venturi tube 20.
[0080] Optionally, the one-way valve 40 is interference-fitted inside the first pipe body 322.
[0081] Specifically, the first tube 322 has an inner cavity for accommodating the one-way valve 40, and the inner cavity is connected to the air inlet 32a of the connecting pipe and the end of the second tube 323 away from the venturi tube 20.
[0082] Figure 7 for Figure 1 A partial cross-sectional view of the connecting pipe in the illustrated embodiment.
[0083] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the connecting pipe 32 also includes a transition piece 324 extending along a curve. One end of the transition piece 324 is connected to the end of the first pipe body 322 away from the connecting flange 31 and communicates with the first pipe body 322. The other end of the transition piece 324 is connected to the end of the second pipe body 323 away from the venturi tube 20 and communicates with the second pipe body 323. Thus, by providing the transition piece 324, a smooth transition is achieved at the connection between the first pipe body 322 and the second pipe body 323, thereby reducing the impact of the change in the flow direction of the exhaust gas flow when it passes through the transition piece 324 on the exhaust gas flow.
[0084] Specifically, in combination Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, one end of the connecting pipe 32 with the first exhaust port 30b is connected to the venturi tube 20 via a second clamp. More specifically, one end of the second pipe body 323 with the first exhaust port 30b is connected to the venturi tube 20 via a second clamp.
[0085] Figure 8 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the assembly of the connector and the filter element in the illustrated embodiment; Figure 9 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the filter element in the illustrated embodiment.
[0086] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8-9 As shown, the exhaust gas recirculation system 100 also includes a filter element 60, which is disposed at the first exhaust port 30b and is used to filter the gas flowing out of the first exhaust port 30b from the connector 30. Thus, by providing the filter element 60, the one-way valve 40 (see...) is avoided. Figure 2 After breaking, fragments of the one-way valve 40 entered the engine intake system through the venturi tube 20, causing engine damage.
[0087] Optionally, combined Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the filter element 60 is embedded in the end of the second pipe body 323 where the first exhaust port 30b is located. In this way, the second pipe body 323 provides space for installing the filter element 60, so that the structure of the exhaust gas recirculation system 100 is more compact and easier to arrange.
[0088] In one embodiment, the filter element 60 is configured to be circular.
[0089] It should be understood that the radial dimension D1 of the filter element 60 is greater than the radial dimension of the first exhaust port 30b.
[0090] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8-9 As shown, the filter element 60 has a plurality of filter holes 60a communicating with the first exhaust port 30b, and a plurality of first mounting holes 60b located radially outward of all the filter holes 60a along the first exhaust port 30b. The connector 30 has second mounting holes (not shown in the figure) corresponding one-to-one with the first mounting holes 60b. The exhaust gas recirculation system 100 also includes second fasteners 70 (see figure) corresponding one-to-one with the first mounting holes 60b. Figure 8 Each second fastener 70 passes through a corresponding first mounting hole 60b and second mounting hole. This allows the filter element 60 to be mounted on the connector 30 via the second fasteners 70, facilitating assembly between the filter element 60 and the connector 30. Furthermore, by providing multiple filter holes 60a, it ensures that the filter element 60 flows into the venturi tube 20 (see...) Figure 1 ) exhaust gas flow rate.
[0091] Specifically, such as Figure 9 As shown, the aperture D2 of the filter hole 60a is smaller than the aperture D3 of the first mounting hole 60b. This allows the filter element 60 to prevent smaller debris from entering the engine intake system through the venturi tube 20.
[0092] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8-9 As shown, multiple first mounting holes 60b are spaced apart from each other along the circumference of the first exhaust port 30b.
[0093] In one embodiment, the number of first mounting holes 60b is four. In other embodiments, the number of first mounting holes 60b may be set differently according to the needs of use, as long as the filter element 60 is reliably fixed relative to the connector 30, and the number of first mounting holes 60b is not limited here.
[0094] The exhaust gas recirculation system 100 provided in this application can be applied to heavy-duty natural gas engines.
[0095] Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of an exhaust gas recirculation system, an engine intake system, and an engine exhaust system in one embodiment of this application.
[0096] According to another aspect of this application, a vehicle 200 is provided, including an exhaust gas recirculation system 100 as described in any of the above embodiments.
[0097] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10As shown, the vehicle 200 also includes an engine exhaust system 201 and an engine intake system 202. The exhaust port of the engine exhaust system 201 is connected to the inlet of the cooler 10, and the intake port of the engine intake system 202 is connected to the outlet of the venturi tube 20. Thus, the exhaust gas generated by the engine exhaust system 201 passes through the cooler 10, the connector 30, and the venturi tube 20 before entering the engine intake system 202. The cooler 10 cools the exhaust gas generated by the engine exhaust system 201, a one-way valve 40 located in the connector 30 prevents backflow of intake gas, and the venturi tube 20 measures the exhaust gas flow rate.
[0098] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10 As shown, the exhaust gas recirculation system 100 also includes an EGR valve 80, which is located between the outlet of the venturi tube 20 and the intake port of the engine intake system 202, and is used to control the exhaust gas entering the intake port of the engine intake system 202.
[0099] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0100] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
