Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of diesel engine systems, in particular to a heat insulation cover for a diesel engine exhaust system. Background Art

[0002] At present, as the power of diesel engines continues to increase, the exhaust temperature is also getting higher and higher, and the heat is continuously dissipated outward through the exhaust manifold and supercharger. In addition, as the emission standards become increasingly stringent, the distance between the post-processing arrangement and the supercharger is getting closer and closer. When the exhaust gas is oxidized, the post-processing will generate a lot of heat, which will be radiated outward through the post-processing surface. In general, a heat shield is set outside the exhaust system to prevent the high temperature from spreading to the engine compartment, which can reduce the heat radiation to other engine parts and ensure the normal operation of the engine.

[0003] The existing heat insulation cover has a small coverage area for the exhaust system, and the heat insulation cover fits the outer surface of its coverage area, resulting in poor heat insulation effect. A large amount of heat is radiated into the engine compartment through the exhaust system, which will cause damage to other parts, such as failure of sealing rubber parts and oil leakage, which not only affects the use but also poses a safety risk. In addition, since the exhaust system integrates more parts, the space for arranging the heat insulation cover is small, and the existing heat insulation cover ignores the avoidance of the assembly space of surrounding parts, which makes assembly difficult.

[0012] Preferably, a heat dissipation hole is provided on the heat shield at a position corresponding to the upper side of the connection portion between the supercharger and the oxidation catalyst, which can effectively prevent the supercharger from overheating and reduce the heat exposure of the gasket.
