[0033] According to a first aspect of the utility model, an intercooler air chamber is provided, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the intercooler air chamber 1 in this embodiment includes a main body 10 and an air pipe 13 connected to the main body 10, and the air pipe 13 is used to introduce or export gas. Hereinafter, the specific structure of the above-mentioned parts of the intercooler air chamber according to the utility model will be described in detail.

[0034] In this embodiment, the side of the main body 10 is provided with a first inclined section 1021, an arc section 1022 and a second inclined section 1023 connected in sequence, so that the cross section of the main body 10 is formed into a C-shaped structure. It should be noted that the cross section here refers to the cross section of the main body 10 in a direction perpendicular to its length direction, that is, Figures 1 to 3Specifically, the main body 10 in this embodiment includes a side plate 102 and two end plates 101. The side plate 102 is formed by sequentially connecting the first inclined section 1021, the arc-shaped section 1022 and the second inclined section 1023. The two end plates 101 are respectively connected to the two ends of the side plate 102 in the length direction, so that the main body 10 is formed with a cavity 103 and the cavity 103 is formed with an opening. In the intercooler, the cooling pipe 2 is connected to the cavity 103 of the main body 10 through the opening of the cavity 103.

[0035] Furthermore, if Figure 3 As shown, along the height direction of the main body 10, the first end of the first inclined section 1021 connected to the arc-shaped section 1022 is lower than the second end of the first inclined section 1021 away from the arc-shaped section 1022, and the first end of the second inclined section 1023 connected to the arc-shaped section 1022 is higher than the second end of the second inclined section 1023 away from the arc-shaped section 1022, so that the area of ​​the opening of the cavity 103 is larger, so as to facilitate the circulation of gas in the cooling tube 2. In addition, the side panel 102 of the main body 10 is arranged as above, so that the cavity 103 (cross section) of the main body 10 is formed into a triangular-shaped structure, and the triangle has better stability, that is, the side panel 102 as described above in this embodiment can effectively improve the stability of the overall structure of the main body 10 and the intercooler air chamber 1; in addition, the inclined side walls of the side panel 102 of the main body 10 (that is, the first inclined section 1021 and the second inclined section 1023) can play a certain guiding role for the gas, and the arc segment 1022 can effectively improve the uniformity of the force on the air chamber, and the arc segment 1022 cooperates with the inclined side wall to effectively improve the consistency and reliability of the overall structure of the main body 10, thereby avoiding the failure of the air chamber under the impact of high-temperature and high-pressure airflow.

[0036] In order to further improve the stability and reliability of the intercooler air chamber 1, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 11 are further provided in the cavity 103. Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the reinforcing ribs 11 in this embodiment are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the main body 10, but there are no specific restrictions on the spacing and number thereof, as long as the stability of the main body 10 can be improved without affecting the gas circulation. In addition, the specific structure of the reinforcing rib 11 is also not specifically limited. The reinforcing rib 11 in this embodiment is formed into a rod-shaped structure, and its two ends in the length direction are respectively connected to the first inclined section 1021 and the second inclined section 1023 (the length direction of the reinforcing rib 11 is the height direction of the main body 10).

[0037] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 to Figure 2As shown, the air pipe 13 is a columnar structure, which is located at the end of the length direction of the main body 10 and is connected to the side plate 102, so that the internal pipeline of the air pipe 13 is connected to the cavity 103 of the main body 10. When the air pipe 13 is connected to the main body 10, the axial direction of the air pipe 13 is the same as the height direction of the main body 10. It should be noted that in the intercooler air chamber 1, the connection and assembly of the air pipe 13 and the main body 10 are all conventional technical means of the existing intercooler, so they are not repeated here. Furthermore, a guide plate 14 is also provided in the cavity 103 to facilitate the introduction and export of gas. The guide plate 14 is formed into a rectangular plate structure; along the height direction of the main body 10 (i.e., the axial direction of the air pipe 13), the first end of the guide plate 14 in the height direction extends to the inside of the air pipe 13, and the second end of the guide plate 14 in the height direction is connected to the second inclined section 1023.

[0038] Furthermore, although not shown in the figure, the first end of the guide plate 14 is formed with a notch so that the first end can extend to the inside of the trachea 13 and match the inner diameter of the trachea 13; in addition, the guide plate 14 forms an angle with the width direction of the main body 10 to achieve its guide effect. Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the outer side wall of the overall structure of the intercooler air chamber 1 is also staggeredly provided with a plurality of ribs 12 to increase the reliability of the air chamber.

[0039] According to the intercooler air chamber of the utility model, a first inclined section 1021, an arc-shaped section 1022 and a second inclined section 1023 connected in sequence are arranged on the side of the main body 10 of the intercooler air chamber 1, so that the cross-section of the main body 10 is formed into a C-shaped structure. Compared with the existing rectangular structure of the air chamber, the air chamber in the utility model has higher stability, and the arc-shaped section 1022 can effectively improve the uniformity of the force on the air chamber, thereby improving the strength and reliability of the air chamber to reduce the possibility of failure under the impact of high temperature and high pressure airflow.

[0040] According to a second aspect of the present invention, an intercooler is provided, such as Figure 4 As shown, the intercooler is provided with two intercooler air chambers 1 as described above, and the two intercooler air chambers 1 are respectively connected to the two ends of the cooling pipe 2 in the length direction.
