They are used together with the embodiments of the present utility model to explain the present utility model, and do not constitute a limitation to the present utility model.

[0024] The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] As Figure 1 shown, a water-air intercooled flame arrester intake system includes an intake connecting pipe 1, an intake flame arrester grid 2 and an intercooler 3 connected in sequence. The intake connecting pipe 1 can be connected to an intake main pipe (not shown in the figure), and the intercooler 3 is used to be connected to an intake pipe of a cylinder (not shown in the figure); the intake flame arrester grid 2 is arranged between the outlet of the intake connecting pipe 1 and the inlet of the intercooler 3. The intake flame arrester grid 2 is in the shape of a long rectangular plate, and the inlet of the intercooler 3 is a rectangular opening that matches the intake flame arrester grid 2. By installing the intake flame arrester grid, it can prevent the flame that may return in the diesel engine cylinder from directly leading to the atmosphere, and the flame will go out when passing through, thereby avoiding igniting the flammable gas in the working environment. By the intake flame arrester grid, the explosion-proof performance of the engine can be improved, and at the same time, the intercooler is used to reduce the intake air temperature, reduce the heat load of the engine, increase the intake air volume, and thus increase the power of the engine.
[0026] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 2 shown, the intake connecting pipe 1 includes a mounting plate 11 and two intake passages 12. The edge of the mounting plate 11 can be connected to the periphery of the intake flame arrester grid 2; the inlets of the two intake passages 12 are respectively arranged at the lower parts of both ends of the mounting plate 11. The middle of the intake passage 12 has a bend, and the inlets and outlets are arranged staggeredly. The outlets of the two intake passages 12 are close to the middle of the mounting plate 11 and are arranged at intervals; the outlet size of the two intake passages 12 is larger than their inlet size, which can increase the contact area between the air flow and the flame arrester grid. With the intake passage of the above structure, the air flow can enter in an S shape, which can extend the path of the air flow, reduce the intake resistance, and optimize the performance of the engine.
[0027] During specific design, as Figures 2 - 4 shown, the inlet of the intake passage 12 is rectangular, and a flange 6 connected to the intake main pipe is provided around the inlet of the intake passage 12. Flange connection is convenient for loading, unloading and maintenance. At the same time, the structures of the intake passages at both ends and the height of the inlets can be designed according to the actual installation position, and are not limited to the same structure and / or the same height.
[0028] During specific manufacturing, the surface roughness of the intake connection pipe 1 at its intake end and outlet end is 3.2, as Figure 5 shown. This structure facilitates the installation of gaskets at the intake end and outlet end, ensuring the sealing performance of the intake system.
[0029] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown, the two sides and the bottom of the mounting plate 11 are provided with flanges 10 that can wrap the intake flame arrester grid 2. Removable guard plates 4 are provided around the intake flame arrester grid 2. The four sides of the mounting plate 11 are connected to the four side edges of the intercooler 3 through extended bolts (not shown in the figure). Using the flanges to wrap around the intake flame arrester grid and clamping and fixing the intake flame arrester grid between the intake connection pipe and the intercooler with extended bolts can improve the firmness of the intake system. During long-term operation, impurities will accumulate in the intake flame arrester grid. The intake flame arrester grid can be cleaned by removing the guard plates and reinstalled after cleaning for recycling.
[0030] To facilitate the loading and unloading of the intake flame arrester grid, a handle 5 is installed at the top of the intake flame arrester grid 2. A long groove for the handle 5 to pass through is provided in the front side of the guard plate 4 at the top of the intake flame arrester grid 2, facilitating the handling of the handle to load and unload the flame arrester grid.
[0031] In several embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the intercooler 3 is a water-air intercooler. Among them, a rectangular intake port matching the intake flame arrester grid 2 is provided on the front side of the box body 30 of the water-air intercooler. Two outlet pipes 31 are symmetrically provided on the rear side of the box body of the water-air intercooler, and the outlets of the two outlet pipes 31 are horizontally directed towards the left and right sides of the box body; water inlet and outlet ports 32 are symmetrically provided on the left and right sides of the box body 30 of the water-air intercooler, and the openings of the water inlet and outlet ports 32 are all directed towards the lower part of the box body 30. The water-air intercooler with this structure can make rational use of space, making the overall intake system more compact. The intake temperature can be reduced through the water-air intercooler, the intake air volume can be increased, and the performance of the engine can be optimized.
[0032] In summary, the present invention has the advantages of simple structure, small volume, and good explosion-proof performance. By clamping and fixing the intake flame arrester grid between the intake connection pipe and the water-air intercooler, while being more compact as a whole, it can prevent the flame in the engine cylinder from returning to the intake passage, improving the explosion-proof performance and optimizing the structure and performance of the engine.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present utility model.
