Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automotive parts design and manufacturing, and particularly relates to a liquid collecting box structure and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] In some alpine regions, the temperature is often lower than -30°C. In such a natural environment, the interface between the crankcase ventilation pipe and the air filter outlet pipe of a fuel vehicle often freezes and blocks, resulting in problems such as an increase in the pressure of the engine crankcase, the disconnection of the engine crankshaft oil seal, or oil spraying.

[0003] Currently, most vehicles on the market have no active countermeasures for the problem of ice blockage in the crankcase ventilation pipe. In a cold environment, the crankcase gas coming out of the crankcase ventilation pipe, at the interface between the crankcase ventilation pipe and the air filter outlet pipe, due to the accumulation of hot and cold air, the moisture in the gas freezes when it meets the cold, easily causing the crankcase ventilation pipe to be blocked by ice here, resulting in an increase in crankcase pressure, and thus causing oil leakage from the oil seal, the detachment of the oil seal, and damage to the engine, with serious consequences.

[0004] Some vehicle models adopt the electric heating scheme for the crankcase ventilation pipe joint. The electric heating scheme can effectively solve the problem of ice blockage in the crankcase ventilation pipe, but the cost of the electric heating element is very high, and it requires the intervention of electronic control data for control, increasing the development difficulty. At the same time, there is a certain fire risk in applying electric heating, so the electric heating scheme is very rarely used in vehicle models on the market.

[0005] Some vehicle models adopt the method of coolant heating. This method requires adding an independent coolant circulation device, and both the number of parts and the volume of the parts increase accordingly. In addition to the increase in cost, it is not conducive to the layout in the cramped engine compartment space and is not conducive to the control of the overall vehicle cost and weight. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] The utility model aims to at least solve the technical problem that in the prior art, the interface between the crankcase ventilation pipe and the air filter outlet pipe of a fuel vehicle often freezes and blocks under low-temperature conditions.

[0007] To this end, one object of the utility model is to propose a liquid collecting box structure, including a liquid collecting box body, and the liquid collecting box body is arranged at the connection between the air filter outlet pipe and the crankcase ventilation pipe.

[0008] A flow guiding plate is arranged inside the liquid collecting box body, and the surface of the flow guiding plate is provided with a concave-convex structure.

[0009] Further, the concave-convex structure includes a plurality of convex blocks, and the plurality of convex blocks are connected to each other to form alternately distributed protruding parts and recessed parts.

[0010] Further, the shape of the convex block is a polyhedron, and the cross-section of the polyhedron is an equilateral triangle.

[0011] Further, the concave-convex structure includes a plurality of grid units, and the surface of the grid unit is provided with a recessed part.

[0012] Further, the concave-convex structure includes a plurality of convex blocks arranged at intervals, and a recessed part is formed between adjacent convex blocks.

[0013] Further, the concave-convex structure includes a plurality of strip-shaped convex blocks, and a groove is formed between adjacent strip-shaped convex blocks.

[0014] Further, a liquid collection box air inlet for connecting with a crankcase ventilation pipe is opened on the liquid collection box body; a liquid collection box air outlet communicating with the inside of the liquid collection box body is opened on the outer wall of the air filter outlet pipe.

[0015] Further, the deflector includes a first deflector and a second deflector; the first deflector is arranged close to the liquid collection box air inlet, and the second deflector is arranged close to the liquid collection box air outlet; the first deflector and the second deflector are arranged parallel to the width direction of the liquid collection box body;

[0016] A first air passage for air flow is formed between the first deflector and the side wall of the air filter outlet pipe; a second air passage for air flow is formed between the side of the second deflector away from the first air passage and the liquid collection box body.

[0017] Further, the concave-convex structure is provided on both side plates of the first deflector; the concave-convex structure is provided on the surface of the second deflector close to the liquid collection box air outlet; the concave-convex structure on the second deflector includes a plurality of strip-shaped convex blocks, and a groove is formed between adjacent strip-shaped convex blocks, and the groove is arranged parallel to the liquid collection box air outlet.

[0018] The present invention provides a vehicle, including any one of the above liquid collection box structures.

[0019] A liquid collection box structure and a vehicle of the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0020] In a liquid collection box structure of the present invention, by arranging a deflector with a concave-convex structure on the surface inside the liquid collection box body, the air flow will hit the wall surfaces in all directions of the structure, increasing the collision chance and collision area between the air flow and the wall surface of the deflector, which is beneficial to the precipitation of liquid droplets from the oil-gas mixture, reducing the water molecule content in the oil-gas mixture, and effectively alleviating the problem of ice blockage at the joint of the crankcase ventilation pipe in severely cold areas in winter.

[0048] Embodiment 1

[0049] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, this embodiment provides a liquid collecting box structure, including a liquid collecting box body 100, and the liquid collecting box body is arranged at the connection of the air filter outlet pipe 200 and the crankcase ventilation pipe;

[0050] A liquid collecting box air inlet 103 for connecting with the crankcase ventilation pipe is arranged on the liquid collecting box body 100; a liquid collecting box air outlet 201 communicating with the inside of the liquid collecting box body 100 is arranged on the outer wall of the air filter outlet pipe 200;

[0051] A deflector plate is provided inside the liquid collecting box body 100. The surface of the deflector plate is designed with concave and convex structures. After the oil-gas mixture in the crankcase ventilation pipe enters the liquid collecting box body 100 and collides with the deflector plate, it enters the air filter outlet pipe 200.

[0052] The oil-gas mixture flowing out of the crankcase ventilation pipe is mainly composed of the oil-gas treated by the oil-gas separator in the engine cylinder head and the water droplet particles condensed from the water vapor due to the temperature reduction. The main function of the liquid collecting box of the present invention is to condense the water droplet particles in the oil-gas mixture inside the liquid collecting box, reduce the moisture entering the air filter outlet pipe, and reduce the probability of icing at the crankcase ventilation joint.

[0053] Specifically, the air flow continuously collides with the concave and convex structures on the deflector plate. Compared with a smooth wall surface, due to the design of this concave and convex structure, the air flow will hit the wall surfaces in all directions of this structure, increasing the collision opportunity and collision area between the air flow and the wall surface. Liquid droplets or liquid films will gradually form on the wall surface, which is more conducive to the attachment and precipitation of moisture. Part of the air flow will be rebounded by the wall surface and continue to flow with the air. The air will continue to collide with other concave and convex units on the deflector plate, and the speed of the residual liquid droplets in the air will also decrease. Due to the reduction of inertia and the longer residence time, under the action of gravity, partial sedimentation or attachment will also occur and finally remain inside the liquid collecting box. Due to the continuous precipitation of moisture, the number of liquid droplet particles flowing into the air filter outlet pipe decreases, and the probability of icing at the crankcase ventilation joint will be reduced.

[0054] A liquid collecting box structure of the present invention, by providing a deflector plate with concave and convex structures on the surface inside the liquid collecting box body 100, the air flow will hit the wall surfaces in all directions of this structure, increasing the collision opportunity and collision area between the air flow and the deflector plate wall surface, which is conducive to the precipitation of liquid droplets from the oil-gas mixture, reducing the content of water molecules in the oil-gas mixture, and effectively alleviating the problem of icing and blockage of the crankcase ventilation pipe joint in cold winter regions.

[0055] Embodiment 2

[0056] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, this embodiment provides a liquid collecting box structure, including a liquid collecting box body 100, and the liquid collecting box body is arranged at the connection of the air filter outlet pipe 200 and the crankcase ventilation pipe;

[0058] A flow guide plate is arranged inside the liquid collecting box body 100. The surface of the flow guide plate is designed with a concave-convex structure. After the oil-gas mixture in the crankcase ventilation pipe enters the liquid collecting box body 100 and collides with the flow guide plate, it enters the air filter outlet pipe 200.

[0059] The oil-gas mixture flowing out of the crankcase ventilation pipe is mainly composed of the oil-gas treated by the oil-gas separator in the engine cylinder head and the water droplet particles condensed from the water vapor due to the temperature reduction. The main function of the liquid collecting box of the present utility model is to make the water droplet particles in the oil-gas mixture condense in the liquid collecting box, reduce the moisture entering the air filter outlet pipe, and reduce the probability of icing at the crankcase ventilation joint.

[0060] Specifically, the air flow continuously collides with the concave-convex structure on the flow guide plate. Compared with the smooth wall surface, due to the design of this concave-convex structure, the air flow will hit the wall surfaces in all directions of the structure, increasing the collision chance and collision area between the air flow and the wall surface. Liquid droplets or liquid films will gradually form on the wall surface, which is more conducive to the attachment and precipitation of moisture. Part of the air flow will be rebounded by the wall surface and continue to flow with the air. The gas will continue to collide with other concave-convex units on the flow guide plate, and the speed of the residual liquid droplets in the gas will also decrease. Due to the reduction of inertia and the longer residence time, under the action of gravity, partial sedimentation or attachment will also occur and finally remain inside the liquid collecting box. Due to the continuous precipitation of moisture, the liquid droplet particles flowing into the air filter outlet pipe decrease, and the probability of icing at the crankcase ventilation joint will be reduced.

[0061] In a liquid collecting box structure of the present utility model, by arranging a flow guide plate with a concave-convex structure on the surface inside the liquid collecting box body 100, the air flow will hit the wall surfaces in all directions of the structure, increasing the collision chance and collision area between the air flow and the wall surface of the flow guide plate, which is conducive to the precipitation of liquid droplets from the oil-gas mixture, reducing the content of water molecules in the oil-gas mixture, and effectively alleviating the problem of icing and blockage at the crankcase ventilation pipe joint in cold winter regions.

[0062] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is as follows:

[0063] The flow guide plate is arranged along the width direction of the liquid collecting box body 100; the liquid collecting box air inlet 103 is arranged on one side of the liquid collecting box body 100 away from the air filter outlet pipe 200.

[0064] The concave-convex structure includes a plurality of convex blocks, and the plurality of convex blocks are connected to each other to form alternately distributed raised portions and sunken portions. Specifically, the cross section of the convex block is semicircular, elliptical, triangular, trapezoidal, rectangular, polygonal or other special shapes. And / or,

[0065] The concavo-convex structure includes a plurality of bumps, the shape of the bumps being polyhedrons, the cross-section of the polyhedrons being equilateral triangles with side lengths in the range of 2 - 10 mm. And / or,

[0067] A plurality of the grid units are arrayed longitudinally and horizontally to form the concavo-convex structure. Airflow will strike the walls of the structure in all directions, increasing the chance and area of collision between the airflow and the walls, and droplets or liquid films will gradually form on the walls, which is more conducive to the attachment and precipitation of moisture. And / or,

[0068] The concavo-convex structure includes a plurality of bumps arranged at intervals, and a recessed portion is formed between adjacent bumps. And / or,

[0069] The concavo-convex structure includes a plurality of strip-shaped bumps, and a groove is formed between adjacent strip-shaped bumps. Airflow will strike the walls of the structure in all directions, increasing the chance and area of collision between the airflow and the walls, and droplets or liquid films will gradually form on the walls, which is more conducive to the attachment and precipitation of moisture.

[0070] Embodiment 3

[0071] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, this embodiment provides a liquid collecting box structure, including a liquid collecting box body 100, the liquid collecting box body being arranged at the connection of the air filter outlet pipe 200 and the crankcase ventilation pipe;

[0072] A liquid collecting box air inlet 103 for connecting with the crankcase ventilation pipe is arranged on the liquid collecting box body 100; a liquid collecting box air outlet 201 communicating with the inside of the liquid collecting box body 100 is arranged on the outer wall of the air filter outlet pipe 200;

[0073] A flow guiding plate is arranged inside the liquid collecting box body 100, and a concavo-convex structure is designed on the surface of the flow guiding plate. After the oil-gas mixture in the crankcase ventilation pipe enters the liquid collecting box body 100 and collides with the flow guiding plate, it enters the air filter outlet pipe 200.

[0074] The oil-gas mixture flowing out of the crankcase ventilation pipe is mainly composed of the oil-gas treated by the oil-gas separator in the engine cylinder head and the water droplet particles condensed from the water vapor due to the temperature reduction. The main function of the liquid collecting box of the present utility model is to make the water droplet particles in the oil-gas mixture condense in the liquid collecting box, reduce the moisture entering the air filter outlet pipe, and reduce the probability of icing at the crankcase ventilation joint.

[0075] Specifically, the air flow continuously collides with the concave-convex structure on the flow guide plate. Compared with a smooth wall surface, due to the design of this concave-convex structure, the air flow will hit the wall surfaces in all directions of this structure, increasing the collision opportunities and collision area between the air flow and the wall surface. Droplets or liquid films will gradually form on the wall surface, which is more conducive to the attachment and precipitation of moisture. Some of the air flow will be rebounded by the wall surface and continue to flow with the air. The gas will continue to collide with other concave-convex units on the flow guide plate, and the speed of the residual droplets in the gas will also decrease. Due to the reduction of inertia and the longer residence time, under the action of gravity, some sedimentation or attachment will also occur and finally remain inside the liquid collection box. Due to the continuous precipitation of moisture, the droplet particles flowing into the air filter outlet pipe decrease, and the probability of icing at the crankcase ventilation joint will be reduced.

[0076] A liquid collection box structure of the present utility model, by arranging a flow guide plate with a concave-convex structure on the surface inside the liquid collection box body 100, the air flow will hit the wall surfaces in all directions of this structure, increasing the collision opportunities and collision area between the air flow and the wall surface of the flow guide plate, which is conducive to the precipitation of droplets from the oil-gas mixture, reducing the water molecule content in the oil-gas mixture, and effectively alleviating the problem of ice blockage at the crankcase ventilation pipe joint in severely cold regions in winter.

[0077] The difference between this embodiment and the second embodiment lies in:

[0078] As Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the flow guide plate includes a first flow guide plate 104 and a second flow guide plate 105;

[0079] The first flow guide plate 104 is arranged close to the air inlet 103 of the liquid collection box, and the second flow guide plate 105 is arranged close to the air outlet 201 of the liquid collection box.

[0080] The first flow guide plate 104 is provided with a concave-convex structure. The concave-convex structure includes a plurality of convex blocks, and the plurality of convex blocks are connected to each other to form alternately distributed raised portions and recessed portions. Specifically, the cross-section of the convex block is semicircular, elliptical, triangular, trapezoidal, rectangular, polygonal or other special shapes. And / or,

[0081] The concave-convex structure includes a plurality of convex blocks, the shape of the convex block is a polyhedron, the cross-section of the polyhedron is an equilateral triangle, and the side length range is 2-10 mm. And / or,

[0082] The concave-convex structure includes a plurality of grid units, the grid unit has a plurality of recessed portions, and the cross-section of the recessed portion is semicircular, elliptical, triangular, trapezoidal, rectangular or other special shapes. And / or,

[0083] A plurality of the grid units form the concave-convex structure in an array along the longitudinal direction and the horizontal line. Airflow will strike the wall surfaces in all directions of this structure, increasing the collision chance and collision area between the airflow and the wall surfaces. Droplets or liquid films will gradually form on the wall surfaces, which is more conducive to the attachment and precipitation of moisture. And / or, the concave-convex structure includes a plurality of convex blocks arranged at intervals, and a concave portion is formed between adjacent convex blocks. And / or,

[0084] The concave-convex structure includes a plurality of strip-shaped convex blocks, and a groove is formed between adjacent strip-shaped convex blocks. Airflow will strike the wall surfaces in all directions of this structure, increasing the collision chance and collision area between the airflow and the wall surfaces. Droplets or liquid films will gradually form on the wall surfaces, which is more conducive to the attachment and precipitation of moisture.

[0085] The surface of the second flow guide plate 105 is also provided with a concave-convex structure, which is the same as the concave-convex structure on the first flow guide plate 104;

[0086] Or, the concave-convex structure of the second flow guide plate 105 includes a plurality of strip-shaped convex blocks, and a groove is formed between adjacent strip-shaped convex blocks. The side opening of the groove faces the air outlet 201 of the liquid collection box, which plays a role in guiding the airflow into the air filter outlet pipe.

[0087] As Figure 7 shown, a first air passage for airflow to flow is formed between the side of the first flow guide plate 104 away from the liquid collection box air inlet 103 and the side wall of the air filter outlet pipe 200;

[0088] A second air passage for airflow to flow is formed between the side of the second flow guide plate 105 away from the side wall of the air filter outlet pipe 200 and the liquid collection box body 100;

[0093] A flow guiding plate is arranged inside the liquid collecting box body 100. The surface of the flow guiding plate is designed with concave-convex structures. After the oil-gas mixture in the crankcase ventilation pipe enters the liquid collecting box body 100 and collides with the flow guiding plate, it enters the air filter outlet pipe 200.

[0094] The oil-gas mixture flowing out of the crankcase ventilation pipe is mainly composed of the oil-gas treated by the oil-gas separator in the engine cylinder head and the water droplet particles condensed from the water vapor due to the temperature reduction. The main function of the liquid collecting box of the present utility model is to make the water droplet particles in the oil-gas mixture condense inside the liquid collecting box, reduce the moisture entering the air filter outlet pipe, and reduce the probability of icing at the crankcase ventilation joint.

[0095] Specifically, the air flow continuously collides with the concave-convex structures on the flow guiding plate. Compared with the smooth wall surface, due to the design of this concave-convex structure, the air flow will hit the wall surfaces in all directions of the structure, increasing the collision opportunity and collision area between the air flow and the wall surface. Liquid droplets or liquid films will gradually form on the wall surface, which is more conducive to the attachment and precipitation of moisture. Part of the air flow will be rebounded by the wall surface and continue to flow with the air. The gas will continue to collide with other concave-convex units on the flow guiding plate, and the speed of the residual liquid droplets in the gas will also decrease. Due to the reduction of inertia and the longer residence time, under the action of gravity, partial sedimentation or attachment will also occur and finally remain inside the liquid collecting box. Due to the continuous precipitation of moisture, the liquid droplet particles flowing into the air filter outlet pipe decrease, and the probability of icing at the crankcase ventilation joint will be reduced.
