Specific embodiments
[0025] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the following further details the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.
[0026] Please refer to the attached Figure 1-2 The present utility model provides a post - treatment muffler structure applicable to natural - gas vehicle models, including a post - treatment part 1, an external outlet pipe 2, a muffler part 3, and a back - pressure valve 4. The upstream end of the external outlet pipe 2 is connected to the outlet end of the post - treatment part 1, and its downstream end is connected to the intake end of the muffler part 3. The back - pressure valve 4 is arranged at the connection between the external outlet pipe 2 and the muffler part 3. The muffler part 3 includes a high - frequency pipe 310, an outlet connecting pipe 320, and high - frequency sound - absorbing cotton 330. The high - frequency pipe 310 and the outlet connecting pipe 320 are arranged with inner and outer nesting, and the high - frequency sound - absorbing cotton 330 is filled between the high - frequency pipe 310 and the outlet connecting pipe 320.
[0027] The exhaust gas is first treated by the post - treatment part 1, then enters the muffler part 3 through the external outlet pipe 2. After the muffler part 3 absorbs the noise, the exhaust gas is discharged from the end of the outlet connecting pipe 320 and enters the downstream equipment. The back - pressure valve 4 is opened under the action of the exhaust pressure to suppress low - frequency noise, and the high - frequency pipe 310 and the high - frequency sound - absorbing cotton 330 absorb the high - frequency noise brought by the back - pressure valve 4, solving the problem of interior rumbling.
[0028] In a specific connection relationship, one end of the outlet connecting pipe 320 is fixedly welded to the external outlet pipe 2, and the end of the high - frequency pipe 320 is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the outlet connecting pipe 320. The exhaust gas can only enter the high - frequency pipe 320 from the external outlet pipe 2 and does not directly contact the high - frequency sound - absorbing cotton 330.
[0029] Preferably, since the exhaust temperature is relatively high, adjusting the valve body size of the back pressure valve 4 and increasing the exhaust flow area can reduce the pressure difference between the front and rear pipelines of the back pressure valve 4. Secondly, by adjusting the torsion spring angle of the back pressure valve 4 to adapt to the exhaust gas flow velocity and the pipe diameter of the high-frequency pipe 310, the absorption effect of high-frequency noise can be further improved.
[0030] Preferably, the valve disc shape of the back pressure valve 4 is configured as a circle, so that the aperture of the valve disc at the high-flow opening angle and other apertures is as large as possible, which can increase the exhaust flow area and avoid the problem of the valve body falling off caused by the large pressure difference between the front and rear pipelines of the back pressure valve.
[0031] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the installation and connection of the muffler part 3 and the downstream equipment, an outlet flange 340 is provided at one end of the outlet connecting pipe 320 away from the outlet pipe 2.
[0032] In the present application, the outlet pipe 2 is bent to make the post-treatment part 1 and the muffler part 3 parallel, and the muffler part 3 is connected to the post-treatment part 1 through a V-shaped bracket 6. In a specific embodiment, the outlet end of the post-treatment part 1 is located on the side of the post-treatment part 1 and is perpendicular to the axis of the post-treatment part 1. By configuring the shape of the outlet pipe 2 as a bent pipe, the total length of the entire post-treatment and muffler structure remains unchanged, but the exhaust path is lengthened, and in cooperation with the structure of the muffler part 3, the in-vehicle roar is further eliminated.
[0033] In one embodiment, an oxygen sensor 210 is provided inside the outlet pipe 2. The oxygen sensor 210 can detect the pollutant content in the exhaust gas to ensure the exhaust gas quality.
[0034] In the present application, the post-treatment part 1 includes a post-treatment inner cylinder 110, an inlet end cover 120, an outlet end cover 130, and a TWC catalyst 140. The inlet end cover 120 and the outlet end cover 130 are respectively arranged at the inlet end and the outlet end of the post-treatment inner cylinder 110, and at least two TWC catalysts 140 are arranged in sequence along the gas flow direction inside the post-treatment inner cylinder 110. In a specific embodiment, the post-treatment inner cylinder, the inlet end cover 120, and the outlet end cover 130 are welded to form a sealed chamber. The exhaust gas enters from the side of the inlet end cover 120 and exits from the side of the outlet end cover 130. Two TWC catalysts 140 are press-fitted and over-fitted inside the post-treatment inner cylinder 110, and the generated CO, HC, NO X etc. are absorbed by the TWC catalyst 140, and at the same time, the honeycomb shape of the TWC catalyst 140 is used to absorb noise.
[0035] Furthermore, a post-treatment outer cylinder 160 is nested outside the post-treatment inner cylinder 110, and heat insulation cotton 150 is filled between the post-treatment inner cylinder 110 and the post-treatment outer cylinder 160. The post-treatment outer cylinder 160 and the post-treatment inner cylinder 110 implement a double-layer structure design for the cylinder structure, and the heat insulation cotton 150 filled in the middle prevents the temperature of the outer surface of the post-treatment part 1 from being too high.
[0036] The intake structure of the post-treatment part 1 is specifically configured as follows: An inner intake pipe 170 is installed at the intake end cover 120 and inside the post-treatment inner cylinder 110. A plurality of intake holes are provided on the side of the inner intake pipe 170 facing the TWC catalyst 140. Exhaust gas first passes through the end of the inner intake pipe 170 and then enters the post-treatment inner cylinder 110 through the intake holes. In one embodiment, please refer to the appendix Figure 2 and the appendix Figure 3 , the inner intake pipe 170 is horizontally arranged and perpendicular to the axis of the post-treatment inner cylinder 110. Exhaust gas enters its interior from the end of the inner intake pipe 170 and then enters the post-treatment inner cylinder 110 through the intake holes on its upper side; the shapes of the intake holes include square and circular, and the aperture sizes are large and small. Preferably, square holes are arranged in the middle of the inner intake pipe 170, and circular holes are arranged on the axial two sides of the square holes, aiming to evenly distribute the exhaust gas flow, make the contact between the exhaust gas and the TWC catalyst 140 more uniform, and avoid the problem that part of the TWC catalyst 140 is damaged after long-term use due to uneven exhaust gas flow.
[0037] To facilitate the connection between the post-treatment part 1 and the upstream equipment, an outer intake pipe 5 connected to the inner intake pipe 170 is installed at the intake end cover 120 and outside the post-treatment inner cylinder 110. An intake flange 510 is provided at the end of the outer intake pipe 5 away from the intake end cover 120. In a specific embodiment, the outer intake pipe 5 is fixedly welded to one end of the inner intake pipe 170, and the intake flange 510 is used to dock with the upstream equipment and is detachably connected.
[0038] The outlet structure of the post-treatment part 1 is specifically configured as follows: An inner outlet pipe 180 connected to the outer outlet pipe 2 is installed at the outlet end cover 130 and inside the post-treatment inner cylinder 110. A plurality of outlet holes are provided on the side of the inner outlet pipe 180 facing the TWC catalyst 140. Exhaust gas is discharged from the post-treatment inner cylinder 110 through the outlet holes and then through the end of the inner outlet pipe 180. In one embodiment, the inner outlet pipe 180 is horizontally arranged and perpendicular to the axis of the post-treatment inner cylinder 110. Exhaust gas enters the interior of the inner outlet pipe 180 through the outlet holes on the lower side of the inner outlet pipe 180 and then is discharged from its end; the shape of the exhaust hole is square or circular, and the aperture size is adjusted according to the diameter of the back pressure valve and the muffler part 3, which is used to comprehensively eliminate low-frequency and high-frequency noises.
[0039] In the present application, for the convenience of better fitting and fixing the sound absorption structure with the vehicle body, a transverse bracket 7 is arranged on the outer surface of the post-treatment outer cylinder 160 along the transverse direction; a longitudinal bracket 8 is arranged on the outer surface of the post-treatment outer cylinder 160 along the longitudinal direction.
[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the examples, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
