Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile accessories, in particular to a cooling air pipeline in a new energy automobile. Background Art
[0002] The air-conditioning duct in new energy vehicles is an important connecting pipe fitting in the automobile system. The air-conditioning duct is connected in the engine compartment. The air-conditioning duct is usually connected with a retractable bellows in the middle, and flanges are set at both ends for fixed connection with the engine. The bellows usually absorbs vibration and provides flexible connection. The structure in the engine compartment is compact and the installation space of the air-conditioning duct is small. In order to facilitate the connection of the air-conditioning duct, the bellows are usually provided with installation margin. The long-term thermal expansion and contraction in the engine compartment will cause the bellows to age and reduce the shrinkage performance of the bellows. The overall length of the bellows increases, resulting in excessive installation margin. When the engine vibrates, the vibration amplitude of the aged bellows increases. Excessive installation margin will cause the bellows to hit other components next to it in the engine compartment and cause abnormal noise. Utility Model Content
