[0014] The above technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail in combination with the specific circumstances of the noise control system for large heavy-duty self-unloading trucks in open-pit coal mines.
[0015] The embodiments of the present application propose a noise control device for large heavy-duty self-unloading trucks in open-pit coal mines, specifically comprising: The engine compartment soundproofing assembly: a multi-layer composite soundproofing material is wrapped around the engine compartment, the innermost layer is a high-temperature-resistant and high-damping butyl rubber layer, which can effectively absorb the vibration energy on the surface of the engine and reduce the noise generated by vibration; the middle layer is glass fiber acoustic cotton, which can absorb medium and high frequency noise; the outer layer is a metal sheet, which plays a protective role for the internal materials and reflects part of the noise. Special sealing rubber strips are installed at each opening of the engine compartment, such as access holes and ventilation openings, to ensure the sealing of the engine compartment and prevent noise leakage.
[0016] The exhaust system noise reduction device: a multi-stage impedance composite muffler is installed on the exhaust pipe, which is composed of an expansion chamber, a resonance cavity, and sound-absorbing material. Different frequencies of sound waves are reflected and interfered in the expansion chamber and resonance cavity, thereby reducing noise energy. The sound-absorbing material further absorbs the remaining noise. At the rear end of the muffler, a variable cross-section exhaust tail pipe is installed, which adjusts the cross-sectional area of the tail pipe in real time according to different operating conditions of the engine (such as idle speed, acceleration, full load running, etc.) through an intelligent control system, optimizes the exhaust gas flow, and reduces the exhaust noise.
[0017] Tire Noise Reduction Structure: A new type of noise reduction tire is developed. The surface of the tire adopts a special pattern design, and the arrangement and shape between the pattern blocks are optimized to effectively reduce the noise generated by the friction between the tire and the ground. Inside the tire, sound-absorbing materials such as polyurethane foam are filled to absorb the noise generated by air vibration inside the tire. In addition, rubber shock pads are installed at the connection between the hub and the tire to reduce the vibration transmitted to the hub and the vehicle body when the tire rotates.
[0018] Cab Soundproofing Sealing System: The cab is comprehensively soundproofed. Soundproof felt is pasted on the inner walls, floor and ceiling of the cab, and sound-absorbing materials such as melamine foam are filled inside. The door and window glass of the cab is replaced with double-layer laminated soundproof glass, and high-quality sealing strips are installed on the door and window frames to ensure the sealing of the cab and effectively block external noise from entering the cab, providing a quiet and comfortable working environment for the driver.
[0019] Real-time Noise Monitoring: Multiple noise sensors are installed in the engine compartment, exhaust port, tire area and inside the cab to collect real-time noise data at different positions and transmit these data to the vehicle-mounted central control system.
[0020] Data Analysis and Processing: The central control system uses advanced noise analysis algorithms to analyze the collected noise data in real time, identifies the main sources and frequency characteristics of the noise, and automatically determines whether the current noise exceeds the standard and the noise control measures that need to be started according to different noise sources and noise intensity.
[0021] Intelligent Control Strategy: When the system detects that the engine noise exceeds the standard, it automatically adjusts the fuel injection strategy and ignition time of the engine to optimize the combustion process and reduce noise caused by incomplete combustion. At the same time, the active noise reduction function of the engine compartment soundproofing assembly is started, and speakers installed in the engine compartment emit sound waves with opposite phase to the engine noise for noise cancellation. For exhaust noise, the cross-sectional area of the variable cross-section tailpipe in the exhaust system noise reduction device is automatically adjusted according to the engine operating conditions to ensure that the silencer is in the best noise reduction state. If the tire noise is too high, the system adjusts the suspension system parameters of the vehicle to change the contact pressure between the tire and the ground, reducing the tire noise. In addition, when the vehicle is in different operating scenarios (such as loading, transportation and unloading), the system will flexibly adjust the working parameters of each noise control device according to the pre-set noise control scheme to achieve comprehensive and intelligent noise control.
[0022] Engine Compartment Soundproofing Assembly Installation: Multiple layers of composite soundproofing materials are accurately cut and pasted on the inner walls of the engine compartment according to design requirements to ensure tight wrapping without gaps. Sealing strips are installed at each opening to ensure sealing effectiveness. After installation, the soundproofing assembly is tested for sealing to check for any leaks.
[0023] Exhaust system noise reduction device installation: Install the multi-stage impedance composite muffler according to the size and layout of the exhaust pipe, ensure firm connection and good sealing. Connect the intelligent control system line of the variable cross-section exhaust tail pipe, debug the system to accurately adjust the tail pipe cross-sectional area according to the engine operating conditions. Test the performance of the exhaust system noise reduction device to detect the noise reduction effect under different operating conditions.
[0024] Tire noise reduction structure installation: Install the new noise reduction tire on the hub, ensure correct installation and fastening. Install rubber shock pads at the connection between the hub and the tire, check if the installation is in place. Check the sound-absorbing material inside the tire to ensure uniform filling.
[0025] Cab soundproofing and sealing system installation: Paste soundproof felt on the inner wall, floor and ceiling of the cab, fill sound-absorbing material to ensure construction quality. Replace double-layer laminated soundproof glass, install sealing rubber strips on the door and window frames, and conduct overall soundproofing and sealing test on the cab to check the soundproofing effect.
