[0002] Commercial vehicle chassis braking systems utilize air brakes. The vehicle chassis requires a brake air source. An engine-driven air compressor pumps air into the vehicle's brake system reservoir, providing fresh air at the required pressure. Existing commercial vehicle chassis engine air compressors lack intake noise reduction devices. Fresh air exiting the air filter enters the engine air compressor directly, generating noticeable noise both inside and outside the cab. In particular, the noise level when the compressor is pumping under load is significantly higher than when operating without a load, compromising driver and passenger comfort and contributing to poor NVH performance. The existing chassis structure precludes the integration of intake noise reduction devices. Adding these would require significant changes to the product, potentially requiring the redevelopment of specialized molds and components. This complicates the product structure and reduces interchangeability, increasing costs and resulting in a poor price-performance ratio, ultimately reducing user benefits. Summary of the Invention

One end of the expandable circular barrel 10 is connected to the air intake bracket 20 and the air intake pipe 40, and the other end of the expandable circular barrel 10 is connected to the air outlet bracket 30 and the air outlet pipe 50; the air intake pipe 40 is communicated with the air intake bracket 20 and the expandable circular barrel 10, and the air outlet pipe 50 is communicated with the air outlet bracket 30 and the expandable cylindrical barrel 10; the air intake bracket 20 is L-shaped, and has a mounting hole 21 and a through hole on the air intake bracket 20; a fastening screw 31 is vertically penetrated on the air outlet bracket 30; a mounting bracket 60 and a mounting bracket 70 are provided on the main expandable cylindrical barrel 10 of the air intake noise reduction device, and the mounting brackets 60 and 70 are respectively provided with a first mounting hole 61 and a second mounting hole 71. The air intake noise reduction device is a welded stainless steel assembly. The expanded cylindrical barrel 10 is a thin-walled part. The air intake bracket 20 and the air outlet bracket 30 are both thin plates. The air intake pipe 40 and the air outlet pipe 50 are thin-walled pipe fittings. The pipe end of the air intake pipe 40 has an outer convex circle 41, and the pipe end of the air outlet pipe 50 has an outer convex circle 51 for connecting the pipeline seal; the air intake bracket 20 is provided with a through hole with the same outer diameter as the air intake pipe 40 and is uniformly welded to the air intake pipe. The air outlet bracket 30 is provided with a through hole with the same outer diameter as the air intake pipe 40 and is uniformly welded to the air intake pipe. The air outlet pipe 50 has a through hole with the same outer diameter and is evenly welded to the air outlet pipe; the air inlet bracket 20 is coaxially and evenly welded to one end of the expandable cylindrical barrel 10, and the air outlet bracket 30 is coaxially and evenly welded to the other end of the expandable cylindrical barrel 10.
