[0002] The automobile air filter, scientifically known as the air filter, is a maintenance part that needs to be replaced frequently during daily automobile maintenance. It is equivalent to the engine mask. The main functions of the automobile air filter include keeping the air conditioner close to the shell to ensure that unfiltered air does not enter the car; separating dust, pollen, abrasive particles and solid impurities in the air; and ensuring that the air in the driving compartment is clean and does not breed bacteria.
[0003] The automobile air filter is generally located in the engine compartment, one side is connected to the air intake pipe, and the other end is connected to the engine. The pipe connecting the air filter and the engine is called the air filter intake pipe. The main function of the air filter intake pipe is to guide and transport fresh air filtered by the air filter into the combustion chamber of the engine. The traditional air filter connecting pipe is usually made of rubber, silicone, plastic and other materials, and the overall lightweight design can reduce material costs and reduce the weight of the car. However, the strength of rubber, silicone, plastic and other materials is relatively low. During the installation and maintenance process, it is easy to break due to bending and pulling, resulting in air leakage, affecting the engine's intake efficiency and performance.

The elbow joints 2 at both ends of the intake pipe main body 1 are used to connect the intake hood and the air filter. By arranging the first reinforcing ribs 3 with plasticity on the intake pipe main body 1, the strength of the intake pipe main body 1 is improved, and the bending and adjustment of the intake pipe main body 1 during installation is facilitated.
[0033] In this embodiment, at least four first reinforcing ribs 3 are provided, and the four first reinforcing ribs 3 are evenly distributed around the air intake pipe main body 1 to ensure that the strength of the air intake pipe main body 1 is evenly enhanced. A threaded fold 4 is provided at the middle of the air intake pipe main body 1 to facilitate the bending adjustment of the air intake pipe main body 1 during installation.
[0034] In a further embodiment, the buckle member 5 is a buckle ring 8 sleeved on the port of the elbow joint 2, a sealing gasket 9 is embedded on the inner wall of the port of the elbow joint 2, the sealing gasket 9 and the buckle ring 8 are aligned, connecting ear blocks 11 are provided at both ends of the buckle ring 8, and a pair of connecting ear blocks 11 are threadedly connected with a fastening bolt 12. After the elbow joint 2 is sleeved with the air filter, the fastening bolt 12 is turned to bring the pair of connecting ear blocks 11 closer, so that the buckle ring 8 can be used to fix the port of the elbow joint 2 by a ring, and the sealing gasket 9 on the inner wall of the port of the elbow joint 2 can achieve a tight sleeve connection between the elbow joint 2 and the air filter.
[0035] In a further embodiment, the buckle ring 8, the elbow joint 2 and the fastening bolt 12 are made of the same material as the intake pipe main body 1, which is silicone material.

The second reinforcing rib 13 is a metal sheet.
[0037] During use, the elbow joint 2 is sleeved with the interface of the automobile air filter. By screwing the fastening bolts 12, a pair of connecting ear blocks 11 are brought close together, the buckle ring 8 is tightened, and the port of the elbow joint 2 is fixed by a ring hoop. In combination with the sealing gasket 9 on the inner wall of the port of the elbow joint 2, a tight sleeve connection between the elbow joint 2 and the air filter can be achieved. Furthermore, since the buckle ring 8, the elbow joint 2 and the fastening bolts 12 are made of the same material as the intake pipe main body 1, that is, silicone, the entire intake pipe adopts a lightweight design, which can reduce costs and reduce the weight of the car. In addition, a first reinforcing rib 3 is provided on the outer surface of the intake pipe main body 1, and a second reinforcing rib 13 is provided on the buckle ring 8, and both the first reinforcing rib 3 and the second reinforcing rib 13 are plastic, the overall strength of the intake pipe is ensured under the premise of lightweight design, and the bending adjustment of the intake pipe main body 1 during installation is facilitated, which has high practical value.
