[0040] This embodiment discloses an exhaust flange gasket with a claw structure, the gasket comprising:
[0041] Gasket body 1;
[0042] Both ends of the long axis of the gasket body 1 protrude outward to form wing portions 101;

[0044] A claw structure 2 is provided in the bolt installation hole 102 , and the claw structure 2 contacts the bolt 3 in the bolt installation hole 102 .
[0045] Specifically, the present embodiment discloses an exhaust flange gasket having a claw structure 2 disposed in a bolt mounting hole 102. First, according to the structure of the exhaust flange gasket, the exhaust flange gasket of the present embodiment mainly includes a gasket body 1, and wing portions 101 are formed protruding outward at both ends thereof, and the wing portions 101 are the parts where the gasket body 1 is installed, so a bolt mounting hole 102 is provided in the wing portions 101. In order to reduce or eliminate the relative displacement between the bolt 3 and the gasket and reduce shaking, a claw structure 2 is protrudingly formed in the bolt mounting hole 102 of the present embodiment, and the claw structure 2 is in contact with the maximum outer periphery of the bolt 3 to constrain the bolt.
[0046] Preferably, the opening size of the bolt mounting hole 102 of this embodiment is larger than the maximum outer diameter of the bolt 3;
[0047] The claw structure 2 includes a plurality of claws 201 . The space formed between the plurality of claws 201 is a bolt installation space. The diameter of a circle surrounded by the plurality of claws 201 is equal to the maximum outer diameter of the bolt 3 .
[0048] First, this embodiment further defines the dimensions of the bolt mounting hole 102 and the bolt 3, as well as the dimension requirements of the claw 201 and the bolt 3, wherein the opening dimension of the bolt mounting hole 102 is larger than the maximum outer diameter of the bolt 3, that is, larger than the protruding portion of the thread of the bolt 3; and this embodiment constrains the bolt 3 by contacting the bolt 3 through the claw structure 2, therefore, the diameter of the circle formed by the multiple claws 201 of the claw structure 2 is equal to the maximum outer diameter of the bolt 3, which can both meet the installation requirements of the bolt 3 and prevent the bolt 3 from moving relative to the gasket body 1.
[0049] As a first embodiment, the claw structure 2 of this embodiment includes three claws 201; wherein the three claws 201 are arranged at intervals along the inner circle of the bolt mounting hole 102;
[0050] When the bolt 3 is installed in the bolt installation hole 102 , the claw 201 contacts the outer ring of the bolt 3 .
[0051] In the first embodiment, there are three claws 201, which are evenly distributed on the outer circumference of the bolt 3, and the central angle between adjacent claws 201 is 120°.

[0061] The second embodiment of the present invention is an expanded implementation method, namely, a combination of a rectangular protrusion and an arc surface. Similarly, the rectangular protrusion of the present embodiment can also be replaced with a wedge-shaped protrusion. As long as the position in contact with the bolt 3 is an arc surface, the design requirements of the present application can be met.
[0062] As an extended implementation method, the claw structure of this embodiment can also be designed as four or more claws, and they can be evenly distributed around the outer circumference of the bolt at equal intervals as required.
[0063] In the above technical solution, the exhaust flange gasket with a claw structure provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
