[0003] The exhaust aftertreatment system processes the hot exhaust gas generated by the engine through various upstream exhaust components to reduce the emission of pollutants. The various upstream exhaust components may include one or more of the following components: pipes, filters, valves, catalysts, mufflers, etc. For example, the upstream exhaust components guide the exhaust gas to a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) having an inlet and an outlet. The carrier of the DOC is divided into ceramic and metal. Usually the ceramic is cordierite, and there are many types of metals, such as iron, copper, brass, etc. The coating on the carrier is mainly composed of precious metal components, such as platinum, iridium, palladium, etc., and the catalytic effect is mainly the precious metals on these coatings.

[0004] As the precious metal content of DOC decreases, the uniformity of DOC inlet airflow is improved by improving the structure of the DOC inlet air intake baffle, which puts higher requirements on the uniformity of HC distribution before DOC. In the prior art, the uniformity of DOC inlet airflow is usually improved by improving the structure of the DOC inlet air intake baffle. For example, Chinese utility model patent CN212716830U discloses a DOC pre-uniformity device, specifically a swirl mixing baffle, so as to make the airflow flowing to the air intake end of DOC more uniform. However, this method has the following problems: only improving the uniformity of DOC inlet airflow cannot solve the problem, and adding a mixer to the air intake cone will increase the back pressure of the post-treatment system, and the economy and power performance will deteriorate.

[0026] It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are exemplary and are intended to provide further explanation of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in the present invention have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] In a typical implementation of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, an exhaust aftertreatment system is provided, including an exhaust pipe, wherein the exhaust pipe includes an exhaust main line 1 and an exhaust bypass line 4, wherein a throttle valve 2 is arranged on the exhaust main line 1, an HC injection device 3 and a mixer 5 are arranged in sequence on the exhaust bypass line 4, and an exhaust outlet of the exhaust main line 1 is connected to a diesel oxidation catalyst 8, a diesel particulate trap 9 and a selective catalytic reduction reactor 10 in sequence.

[0029] like Figure 2As shown, the mixer 5 includes a mixer body 501 , which is in a cylindrical shape. A plurality of blades 502 are arranged on the inner wall of the mixer body 501 , and the plurality of blades 502 are connected to the center of the mixer body 501 .

[0030] Furthermore, the blade 502 is a rectangular sheet structure, and the blade 502 is obliquely arranged on the inner wall surface of the mixer body 501 along the axis of the mixer body 501. The outer diameter of the mixer body 501 is the same as the inner diameter of the exhaust bypass pipe 4. The outer wall surface of the mixer body 501 is close to the inner wall surface of the exhaust bypass pipe 4, so that the mixer body 501 can be installed on the exhaust bypass pipe.

[0031] In this embodiment, the blades 502 are provided with eight blades, which are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction to form a cross-shaped structure. After bench testing of mixers with different numbers of blades, the results are as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the mixer adopts an eight-blade structure to ensure that HC is evenly distributed in the exhaust gas.

[0032] In this embodiment, the exhaust main line 1 is connected to the diesel oxidation catalyst 8 through the intake cone 6. A baffle 7 is provided in the intake cone 6. The baffle 7 can adopt an existing structure that allows the airflow to flow evenly to the intake end of the DOC.

[0033] In this embodiment, the HC injection device 3 includes an HC nozzle, which is installed on the exhaust bypass line and tilted toward the mixer. The HC injection device is used to inject diesel into the engine exhaust pipe. Hydrocarbons (HC) are oxidized in the DOC to increase the exhaust gas temperature.

[0034] In this embodiment, the filter body of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) is made of metal mesh or silicon carbide, and the DPF filters and reduces the particles in the exhaust gas.

[0035] In this embodiment, the diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) uses precious metals or ceramics as catalyst carriers. The main function of the DOC is to oxidize CO and HC in the exhaust gas and convert them into non-toxic and harmless CO2 and H2O. It can also absorb soluble organic components and some carbon particles to reduce the emission of some PM.

[0036] In this embodiment, the selective catalytic reduction reactor (SCR) includes a catalyst, a urea tank, a urea supply unit and a urea nozzle. The working principle is: under the action of the catalyst, the reducing agent ammonia or urea is sprayed to reduce NOx in the exhaust gas into N2 and H2O.

[0037] The exhaust after-treatment system provided in this embodiment, when the engine is regenerated, the throttle valve is fully closed, the exhaust gas flows from the exhaust bypass line, the HC injection device injects diesel, enters the DOC with the exhaust gas, and is oxidized and burned inside the DOC. The mixer behind the HC injection device ensures that the HC is evenly mixed in the exhaust gas, and the baffle of the intake cone in front of the DOC ensures that the airflow is evenly distributed at the DOC inlet. Therefore, the HC is evenly distributed in the DOC inlet cross section, ensuring that the DOC performance is fully utilized and preventing the DOC from being overheated and damaged. When operating in other modes, the throttle valve is fully opened to avoid problems such as economy and power caused by high system back pressure.

[0038] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
