[0053] In this article, examples of various specific processes and materials are provided, but those of ordinary skill in the art can be aware of the application of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0054] The present invention provides a sound-absorbing structure, which is applied to an oxygen generation device. As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the sound-absorbing structure includes a compressor 1, an intake air sound-absorbing device 2, and a nitrogen sound-absorbing device 3 that are used to be arranged in a compressor chamber. The intake air sound-absorbing device 2 is used to reduce the noise of the air entering the compressor 1, and the nitrogen sound-absorbing device 3 is used to reduce the noise of the nitrogen discharged by the oxygen generation device.

[0055] One side of the compressor 1 is connected with an intake pipe 11. The intake silencing device 2 is arranged on the side of the compressor 1 where the intake pipe 11 is connected, and the nitrogen silencing device 3 is arranged on the other side of the compressor 1.

[0056] The bottom of the intake silencing device 2 forms a groove 23 for avoiding the intake pipe 11, an intake silencing chamber is formed inside, and a first intake port 21 and a first outlet port 22 communicating with the intake silencing chamber are provided. The first outlet port 22 is arranged in the groove 23 and connected with the intake pipe 11.

[0057] The air flow enters the intake silencing device 2 through the first intake port 21, and after silencing treatment, enters the compressor 1 through the intake pipe 11.

[0058] The inside of the nitrogen silencing device 3 forms a nitrogen silencing chamber, and a second intake port 31 and a second outlet port 32 communicating with the nitrogen silencing chamber are provided. The second intake port 31 is used for connecting the nitrogen pipeline of the oxygen generation equipment. The nitrogen separated by the oxygen generation equipment enters the nitrogen silencing device 3 through the second intake port 31, and after silencing treatment, is discharged into the inner cavity of the compressor chamber through the second outlet port 32. Further, the opening area of the second intake port 31 is smaller than the opening area of the second outlet port 32 to avoid whistling.

[0059] The intake silencing device 2 and the nitrogen silencing device 3 are respectively arranged on the opposite sides of the compressor 1, with a compact structure, reasonably utilizing the space in the compressor chamber. In the limited internal space of the compressor chamber, the volumes of the intake silencing device 2 and the nitrogen silencing device 3 can be increased, thereby improving the silencing effect.

[0060] The intake silencing device 2 avoids the intake pipe 11 through the groove 23, can better adapt to the shape of the compressor 1, is closely matched with the compressor 1, increases the volume of the intake silencing device 2, and improves the silencing effect. The groove 23 makes the intake silencing chamber form a bent air flow channel, which can change the flow direction of the air flow in the intake silencing chamber, make the path of the air flow more tortuous, consume more energy, and thus effectively reduce the noise of the air flow. The first outlet port is arranged on the side wall of the groove 23 and can be directly connected to the intake pipe 11 extending into the groove 23, which is beneficial to reducing the pipeline length, making the structure more reasonable, and also reducing the cost.

[0061] Specifically, the compressor 1 is selected as an oil-free air compressor, which has two groups of cylinder components. The intake pipe 11 is a three-way pipe and can respectively supply air to the two groups of cylinder components. The first outlet port 22 can be arranged on the side wall of the groove 23 away from the first intake port 21, which can better extend the path of the air flow.

[0062] Further, for the convenience of connection, the first air inlet 21, the first air outlet 22, and the second air inlet 31 can be configured as pipe joint structures to facilitate the connection of pipelines.

[0063] In some embodiments, sound-absorbing materials are provided in the air intake silencing chamber of the air intake silencing device 2 and / or the nitrogen silencing chamber of the nitrogen silencing device 3. The sound-absorbing materials can absorb the sound of the air flow, improving the silencing effect.

[0065] In some embodiments, as Figure 6 shown, at least one first partition 25 is disposed in the air intake silencing chamber of the air intake silencing device 2. The first partition 25 divides the air intake silencing chamber into a plurality of communicating silencing chambers. After the air flow enters the first air inlet 21, it passes through the plurality of communicating silencing chambers, and then enters the intake pipe 11 of the compressor 1 from the first air outlet 22. The first partition 25 can affect the path of the air flow and improve the silencing effect on the air flow.

[0066] In some embodiments, as Figure 6 shown, at least one second partition 35 is disposed in the nitrogen silencing chamber. The second partition 35 divides the nitrogen silencing chamber into at least two communicating silencing chambers. After the nitrogen flow enters the second air inlet 31, it passes through the plurality of communicating silencing chambers, and then is discharged from the second air outlet 32. The second partition 35 can affect the path of the air flow and improve the silencing effect on the air flow.

[0067] In some embodiments, a hollow plate 33 is provided at the bottom of the nitrogen silencing device 3, and a plurality of second air outlets 32 are provided and distributed on the hollow plate 33.

An air duct air inlet 43 communicating with the heat dissipation air duct 6 is provided on the engine compartment 4, and an exhaust passage communicating with the heat dissipation air duct 6 is provided at the bottom of the base 5.
