[0031] The following describes the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 according to an embodiment of the utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0032] The engine compartment side air guide plate 1 is suitable for being installed behind the cooling module 10 and is located on both sides of the engine 20. The engine compartment side air guide plate 1 is constructed with an air guide side plate 100 on the outside of the engine 20. The outer peripheral side of the air guide side plate 100 is constructed with a surrounding plate 200 extending toward the engine 20. The surrounding plate 200 is suitable for surrounding the outside of the engine 20. The rear part of the air guide side plate 100 is constructed with an air guide grille 101 connecting the inside and outside of the air guide side plate 100 to form an air guide area.
[0033] For example, the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 is fixed to the side vehicle body exterior trim by fasteners, and the front side stops at the cooling module 10 , and the air guide grille 101 is located on the side away from the cooling module 10 .
[0034] According to the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 of the embodiment of the utility model, the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 is placed on both sides of the engine 20, behind the cooling module 10, which helps to guide the air to flow around the engine 20 effectively. During the driving process of the vehicle, the gas that passes through the cooling module 10 for heat exchange forms a passage perpendicular to the left and right sides of the engine 20, and the direction of the circulating gas can be guided by the front side of the engine compartment side air guide plate 1, so as to avoid the serious vortex phenomenon of the gas on the left and right sides of the engine 20, improve the heat dissipation efficiency, and avoid the local overheating problem caused by insufficient heat dissipation in some areas.
[0035] The rear part of the wind guide side plate 100 is constructed with a wind guide grille 101 connecting the inner and outer wind guide side plates 100 to form a wind guide area. This structure can take over the guidance of the gas at the front end of the engine compartment side wind guide plate 1, and after passing through the wind guide grille 101, the gas on the left and right sides of the engine 20 is dispersed, so that the gas is guided from both sides of the engine 20 to the outside of the vehicle, so that the gas inside the vehicle can be effectively circulated, the heat reflux phenomenon is reduced, the engine temperature is effectively reduced, and the cooling efficiency is improved.
[0036] Therefore, the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 according to the embodiment of the utility model has the advantages of improving cooling efficiency and reducing heat reflow phenomenon.
[0037] In some specific embodiments of the utility model, the wind guide side plate 100 is configured with a first wind guide portion 102 and a second wind guide portion 103 from front to back. The first wind guide portion 102 extends parallel to the side of the engine 20 in the front-to-back direction, and the second wind guide portion 103 gradually extends obliquely toward the outside of the engine 20 from front to back, and the wind guide grille 101 is formed on the second wind guide portion 103. The first wind guide portion 102 extends parallel to the side of the engine 20 in the front-to-back direction.
[0038] The air guide side plate 100 can be used to guide the air to flow through the side of the engine 20, helping to guide the cooling air to the vicinity of the engine 20 and improving the heat dissipation efficiency. The structure of the first air guide 110 can ensure the direction and speed of air flow, making the cooling effect more uniform and sufficient. The second air guide 120 gradually extends from front to back toward the outside of the engine 20 and forms an air guide grille 101. The second air guide 120 is to further guide the air to flow around the engine 20, thereby increasing the coverage area of the cooling air and optimizing the air circulation effect. With the help of the inclined design of the second air guide 10, the efficiency of air flowing into the engine area can be improved, which helps to reduce the temperature of the engine 20 and improve the heat dissipation effect.
[0039] In some specific embodiments of the utility model, the connecting line of the first air guide portion 110 and the second air guide portion 120 is gradually tilted backward from top to bottom. The tilted structure can make the shape of the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 better adapt to the vehicle body layout, ensuring that the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 is coordinated with the overall appearance and design style of the vehicle body. The tilted structure can make the appearance of the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 more smooth, matching the curve of the vehicle body, and enhancing the beauty and design sense of the appearance of the entire vehicle.
[0040] In addition, the inclined structure can also effectively prevent the phenomenon of hot air or hot wind rising. By tilting the connecting line of the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 backward, the gas can be guided to flow in a downward direction, preventing the gas from diffusing upward, reducing the impact of hot wind on other parts of the vehicle body, and keeping the air around the engine 20 unobstructed, which helps to improve the cooling efficiency.
[0041] In some specific embodiments of the utility model, the air guide grille 101 has a plurality of grille plates 110, each grille plate 110 gradually extends obliquely toward the outside of the engine 20 from front to back, and a first air guide port 104 is formed at the rear of the air guide grille 101. The air guide grille 101 has a structure of a plurality of grille plates 110, so that the air guide space can be subdivided into a plurality of small areas, which is conducive to more precise control of the direction and speed of air flow. The oblique extension structure of each grille plate 110 can effectively guide the air flow to the outside of the engine 20, optimize the air flow path, and improve the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0042] The first air guide port 104 formed behind the air guide grille 101 can effectively guide the air conditioned by the grille plate 110 to flow to the engine 20 area, increase the air circulation speed and pressure, improve the cooling effect, and help to further concentrate and guide the cooling air for effective heat dissipation.
[0043] In some specific embodiments of the utility model, the air guide area is formed with a secondary air guide port 105 on the front side of the grille plate 110, and the secondary air guide port 105 faces rearward and gradually increases in width from top to bottom. Among them, the secondary air guide port 105 is located on the side of the air guide side plate 110 that is closer to the cooling module 10. The secondary air guide port 105 on the front side of the grille plate 110 can be used to guide air to the main area of the engine compartment side air guide plate 1, which can increase the ventilation volume of the engine compartment side air guide plate 1, so that more cooling air flows into the outside of the engine 20, thereby increasing the heat dissipation effect. As the width of the secondary air guide port 105 gradually increases, the ventilation volume can be further increased, the cooling effect can be enhanced, which is conducive to maintaining the engine 20 within a suitable operating temperature range, and helps to enhance the overall cooling effect of the engine compartment side air guide plate 1, thereby improving the working efficiency and performance of the engine 20.
[0044] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the inclination angle of the grille plate 110 with respect to the front-rear direction is greater than the inclination angle of the second air guide portion 103 with respect to the front-rear direction.
[0045] Since the inclination angle of the grille plate 110 is greater than the inclination angle of the second air guide 103, the grille plate 110 can more effectively guide and control the air flow. A larger inclination angle helps to guide the air more accurately to the desired position, improve the guiding effect, and ensure the cooling effect of the air circulation on the engine.
[0046] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the grille plate 110 includes an upper air guide plate 111, a middle air guide plate 112, and a lower air guide plate 113. The upper air guide plates 111 are arranged in a staggered manner along the upper portion of the air guide side plate 101. The middle air guide plates 112 are arranged in a staggered manner along the middle portion of the air guide side plate 101, and the middle air guide plates 112 are configured with a bent portion extending obliquely downward from front to back. The lower air guide plates 113 are arranged in a staggered manner along the lower portion of the air guide side plate 101, and the lower air guide plates 113 are configured with an air guide folding edge obliquely extending downward from front to back.
[0047] The staggered arrangement of the upper air guide plate 111, the middle air guide plate 112 and the lower air guide plate 113 can help optimize the guidance of air flow. Air guide plates of different heights can guide air to different positions, so that the air covers the entire air guide plate area more evenly, which can increase the coverage area of the air guide plate and the accuracy of guiding air, effectively improve the cooling efficiency, improve the cooling effect, and ensure the normal operation of the engine 20 in a high temperature environment.
[0048] The middle air guide plate 112 is configured with an inclined bending portion and the lower air guide plate 113 is configured with an inclined air guide folding edge, and such a structure helps to improve the air guide efficiency. The bending portion and the air guide folding edge can change the direction and speed of air flow, so that the air flows to the engine area more effectively, thereby improving the cooling efficiency.
[0049] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, a second air guide port 201 is configured on the rear side of the enclosure 200 , and the second air guide port 201 is connected to the rear of the second air guide portion 103 .
[0050] By setting a second air guide 201 on the rear side of the enclosure, the air circulation channel can be increased, so that more cooling air can flow to the engine area, improve the heat dissipation effect, and ensure that the engine 20 operates within a suitable temperature range. At the same time. This structure can improve the direction and speed of air flow, so that air can flow more smoothly to the engine 20 area, avoid air flow blockage or confusion, improve the efficiency and coverage of air flow, further improve the heat dissipation efficiency, effectively reduce the operating temperature of the engine 20, and extend the service life of components.
[0051] In some specific embodiments of the utility model, the side of the enclosure 200 facing the engine 20 is configured with an outwardly folded mounting flange 210, and the mounting flange 210 is suitable for stopping at the side of the engine 20 and the side of the cooling module 10. Through the outwardly folded mounting flange 210 structure, the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 can be more easily and firmly installed on the side of the engine 20 and the side of the cooling module 10. The mounting flange 210 can provide additional support and fixing points to ensure that the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 will not loosen or shift under high-speed driving or vibration environment, thereby ensuring the safety and stability around the engine 20.
[0052] The folded installation flange 210 structure not only has practical functions, but also can improve the appearance of the engine compartment side air guide plate 1. By installing the flange 210 structure, the engine compartment side air guide plate 1 can look more neatly processed and solid, and more in line with the overall vehicle appearance design style requirements.
