[0001] The utility model relates to the field of pipes, in particular to a composite polypropylene pipe for new energy vehicles. Background Art
[0002] The areas where composite polypropylene pipes are used in new energy vehicles mainly include the following aspects: cooling system, air conditioning system, braking system, power system and other auxiliary systems, which are used to transport liquids. The use of composite polypropylene pipes for such pipes is mainly because they have the advantages of light weight, chemical corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, low cost, etc., and can meet the requirements of new energy vehicles in terms of performance, safety and cost.
[0003] Chinese Patent No. CN201220233367.4 discloses "A Polypropylene Pipe", which can effectively absorb these active free radicals by adding an anti-aging agent layer, making it impossible for them to age plastic products. On the premise of having all the advantages of ordinary polypropylene pipes, the service life of the pipe is longer;
[0004] This structure has certain advantages, but there are still some deficiencies:
[0005] This document optimizes the material of the pipe to make the service life of the pipe longer. However, when the pipe is in use, affected by external factors such as vehicle vibration, the pipe vibrates. Long-term vibration will cause the hose material to fatigue, resulting in damage such as cracks and ruptures, shortening the service life of the hose. Similarly, the service life of the pipe will also be short. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the structure of the pipe to make it more durable in use, and the vibration may affect the flow of liquids such as oil and coolant in the hose, resulting in unstable delivery volume and affecting the normal operation of related systems.

[0026] In order to further explain the technical solution of the utility model, the following will be elaborated in detail through specific embodiments.
[0027] Please refer to Figures 1-3 , the utility model provides a composite polypropylene pipe for new energy vehicles, including a pipe body 1, a grid layer 2, a buffer layer 3, a glass wool heat insulation layer 4, and a nano anti-fouling layer 5; the grid layer 2 is fixedly arranged on the outer side of the pipe body 1, and the grid layer 2 plays a shock absorption role through the grid structure; the buffer layer 3 is adhesively fixed on the outer side of the grid layer 2, and the buffer layer 3 is used for vibration prevention to weaken the influence brought by external vibration; the glass wool heat insulation layer 4 is arranged on the outer side of the buffer layer 3, and the glass wool heat insulation layer 4 is used for heat insulation; the nano anti-fouling layer 5 is sprayed on the outer side of the glass wool heat insulation layer 4, and the nano anti-fouling layer 5 is used for preventing dirt adhesion. The cross-section of the pipe body 1 is in an "I" shape, which is convenient for connecting with other parts at both ends, and the recessed middle part is convenient for arranging the grid layer 2 and the buffer layer 3. The grid layer 2 and the buffer layer 3 are used to achieve the shock absorption effect, effectively reducing the vibration fatigue of the pipe body 1 and avoiding the problem of liquid flow being affected by vibration.
[0028] Among them, in the grid layer 2, the rubber of the grid structure plays a double shock-absorbing role. When subjected to vibration, the grid structure can absorb and disperse the vibration energy, thereby reducing the vibration of the inner tube and achieving an anti-vibration effect. Moreover, when subjected to vibration or impact, the rods of the grid will deform, converting the vibration energy into the elastic potential energy and heat energy of the rods, thereby reducing the energy transmitted to the protected object. The natural frequency of the grid structure is different from that of the protected object. When vibration occurs, the two will not resonate, thereby reducing the impact of vibration. The force generated by vibration is evenly distributed over a larger area through the grid structure, reducing local stress concentration and minimizing damage to key parts. The rods in the grid structure are interconnected and friction with each other, increasing the damping of the entire system, thereby suppressing the amplitude and duration of vibration.
[0029] In addition, through the setting of the glass wool heat insulation layer 4, it can effectively play a heat insulation role. For example, during the transportation of liquid oil, when the ambient temperature where the pipeline is located is relatively low, heat insulation can prevent the oil temperature from dropping too quickly, ensuring the fluidity and process performance of the oil. When used in an air conditioning system, it can keep the coolant warm and avoid the temperature rising during transportation. Moreover, when spraying the nano anti-fouling layer 5 on the outside of the glass wool heat insulation layer 4, a primer can be used to strengthen the adhesion between the two. Such as epoxy primer, polyurethane primer, acrylic primer, etc., can all be used to enhance the bonding force between the nano material and the surface of the glass wool.
[0030] Please refer to Figure 4 , the present utility model provides a composite polypropylene pipe for new energy vehicles. The pipe body 1 includes a hose 11, a connection thickening area 12, and a nano coating 13. Connection thickening areas 12 are provided at both the left and right ends of the hose 11, and nano coatings 13 are sprayed on the outside of the hose 11 and the connection thickening areas 12. There is a gap between the connection thickening area 12 and the buffer layer 3 to prevent the connection thickening area 12 and the buffer layer 3 from colliding with each other and provide a buffer space for the movement of the buffer layer 3.
[0031] Refer to Figures 1-4 , during use, the pipe body 1 is used to connect two parts to conduct the transportation of liquid;
[0032] During the use process, the grid layer 2 and the buffer layer 3 are used for anti-vibration, and the glass wool heat insulation layer 4 is used for heat insulation to prevent the heat of the liquid transported inside from dissipating. In addition, the nano anti-fouling layer 5 and the nano coating 13 are used to play the roles of anti-fouling adhesion and bonding, keeping the outside of the pipe clean and effectively reducing the maintenance cost.
