[0022] The object of the present invention is to provide a gas blowby prevention structure to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, to avoid failures, to have higher reliability and better temperature adaptability.

[0023] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, in an anti-gas blowby structure known to the inventor, the side of the original pulse tube 6 is glued and fixed to the original sleeve 7, the side of the original pulse tube seat 8 is glued and fixed to the side of the original sleeve 7, and the original wire mesh layer 9 is arranged in the original sleeve 7 and located between the original pulse tube 6 and the original pulse tube seat 8.

[0025] The present invention provides a gas blowby prevention structure, such as Figure 1As shown, it includes: a pulse tube 1, a wire mesh layer 2, a guide core 3 and a sleeve 4, the sleeve 4 is connected to one end of the pulse tube 1 and the guide core 3 respectively, the guide core 3 has a guide channel 34, the sleeve 4 connects the guide channel 34 and the pulse tube 1, the wire mesh layer 2 is fixedly arranged in the pulse tube 1, the pulse tube 1 is welded to the sleeve 4 in the circumferential direction, and the guide core 3 is welded to the sleeve 4 in the circumferential direction.

[0026] In the anti-gas cross-flow structure provided by the present invention, the pulse tube 1 is welded to the sleeve 4 in the circumferential direction, and the guide core 3 is welded to the sleeve 4 in the circumferential direction, which replaces the original adhesive fixation, avoids the glue from squeezing out to block the mesh of the wire mesh layer 2, and is not easy to cause malfunctions; the welding position will not absorb and release water vapor, and the reliability is higher; the use of welding for fixation avoids the difference in the amount of expansion and contraction between the glue and the metal material when the temperature changes, and has better temperature adaptability.

[0027] In a preferred implementation of this embodiment, one end of the sleeve 4 extends into the pulse tube 1, and the portion of the sleeve 4 extending out of the pulse tube 1 is the first portion, the outer side surface of the first portion is flush with the outer side surface of the pulse tube 1, and the circumferential edge of one end of the pulse tube 1 is welded to the circumferential edge of the first portion close to one end of the pulse tube 1. By welding the circumferential edge of the sleeve to the circumferential edge of the pulse tube 1, the reliability of the connection is stronger and the anti-blowby effect is better.

[0028] In a preferred implementation of the present embodiment, the flow guide core 3 includes a first section 31, a second section 32 and a third section 33. The second section 32 is disposed between the first section 31 and the third section 33. The two ends of the second section 32 are fixedly connected to the first section 31 and the second section 32 respectively. The cross-sectional dimension of the first section 31 in the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the flow guide channel 34 is smaller than that of the second section 32.

The third section 33 is fixedly connected to the vascular seat 5, and the end surface of the second section 32 close to the third section 33 contacts the end surface of one end of the vascular seat 5. By fixing the third section 33 to the vascular seat 5, the reliability of the connection between the vascular seat 5 and the pulse tube 1 is further improved.

[0031] In order to further improve the sealing performance and anti-gas blowby capability between the vascular seat 5 and the flow guide core 3, in a preferred implementation of the present embodiment, an end of the third section 33 away from the second section 32 is welded to an end of the vascular seat 5 away from the second section 32.

The wire mesh layer 2 is limited by the first limiting surface 41 and the second limiting surface 35, thereby improving the stability of the wire mesh layer 2. The wire mesh layer 2 is formed by stacking a plurality of wire meshes.

[0034] In a preferred implementation of this embodiment, the guide channel 34 includes a first part and a second part, the first part is funnel-shaped, the large end of the first part is close to the wire mesh layer 2, and the small end of the first part is connected and communicated with one end of the second part.

[0036] In a preferred implementation of this embodiment, the pulse tube 1, the flow guide core 3 and the sleeve 4 are all made of stainless steel or titanium alloy. Stainless steel and titanium alloy are relatively strong and have strong temperature adaptability. Among them, the first section 31, the second section 32 and the third section 33 of the flow guide core 3 are made of stainless steel in one piece.
