Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automobile engine seals, and in particular to a quick-install automobile intake manifold seal. Background Art

[0002] The intake manifold seal is a key component in modern automotive engines, ensuring airtightness between engine components and improving overall engine efficiency. To reduce vehicle maintenance time, the seal needs to be quick and easy to install.

[0003] At present, the general installation of the intake manifold sealing ring is through an embedded clip design, which uses the clips on the sealing ring and the slots on the manifold to achieve the connection of the sealing structure, thereby ensuring close contact between the sealing ring and the manifold to achieve a sealing effect.

[0004] However, the buckle is difficult to embed during installation, resulting in reduced installation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to improve the installation efficiency of the sealing ring, the present application provides a quick-install automobile intake manifold sealing ring.

[0006] The quick-install automobile intake manifold sealing ring provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] Quick-install automobile intake manifold seal, including:

[0008] A sealing ring body corresponding to the multiple intake manifolds;

[0009] At least two clamping parts, each of which extends radially outward along the sealing ring body to form a clamping claw, and each clamping claw has a free end and a connecting end;

[0010] The distance between the free end and the sealing ring body is greater than the distance between the connecting end and the sealing ring body.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing ring body can be fixed to the intake manifold through a snap-fit action without additional fasteners, thereby greatly shortening the installation time. At the same time, during the disassembly process, the sealing ring can be removed from the intake manifold by simply prying the claws, which facilitates maintenance and replacement and improves work efficiency.

[0012] In addition, since the distance between the free end of the claw and the sealing ring body is greater than the connection end, the claw can fit more closely to the installation surface of the intake manifold during installation, forming an effective seal; through the elastic deformation of the claw, it can further adapt to the slight unevenness of the intake manifold surface, ensuring that the sealing performance of the sealing ring is not affected.

[0013] Optionally, the claws are provided with anti-slip barbs.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the friction between the sealing ring and the intake manifold is increased, so that the claws can be more firmly fixed on the mounting surface of the intake manifold after installation, preventing the sealing ring from falling off due to vibration or external force, making the sealing ring more stable after installation, thereby further ensuring a close fit between the sealing ring and the intake manifold, and making it easier to further improve the sealing performance.

[0015] Optionally, there are multiple anti-slip barbs, which are evenly distributed on the inner side of the claw.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple barbs for preventing loss of seal can increase the contact area and contact pressure between the sealing ring and the mounting surface of the intake manifold, and can form multi-point fixation, making the sealing ring more stable after installation and less likely to be displaced or fall off due to vibration or external force, so that the sealing ring can fit more closely on the intake manifold, thereby improving the sealing performance.

[0017] Optionally, the sealing ring body is an annular structure.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the annular sealing ring body can fit closely to the outer contour of the intake manifold, ensuring gapless contact between the sealing surfaces, thereby improving the sealing performance; at the same time, the sealing ring body can be more easily positioned at the installation position of the intake manifold during installation, enabling quick installation and improving installation efficiency.

[0019] Optionally, the cross section of the sealing ring body is trapezoidal.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, during installation, it can fit more closely to the installation surface of the intake manifold, forming an effective seal, helping to prevent leakage of air, fuel or other fluids and improving sealing performance;

[0021] In addition, the sealing ring body can distribute stress more evenly when subjected to force, reducing wear and damage caused by excessive force at a single point, helping to improve the wear resistance of the sealing ring body, thereby easily extending the service life of the sealing ring body.

[0022] Optionally, the bottom edge of the trapezoidal shape of the sealing ring body faces the inside of the annular structure of the sealing ring body.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, due to the characteristics of the trapezoidal structure, the wider bottom part can provide a larger contact area, which can fit more closely to the installation surface of the intake manifold during installation, forming a more effective seal.

[0024] Optionally, the clamping portion and the sealing ring body are integrally formed.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the entire sealing ring becomes an integral structure, avoiding gaps caused by the connection between different components, helping to enhance the sealing ring's resistance to vibration, and enabling the sealing ring body to maintain stable performance for a long time in harsh engine environments.

[0026] Optionally, the clamping portion is made of elastic material.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic material has good elasticity and recovery properties, so that the clamping part can fit tightly to the surface of the intake manifold during installation to form an effective seal. The tight fit not only reduces the risk of leakage, but also improves the sealing efficiency and durability of the sealing ring.

[0028] Optionally, the elastic material is rubber.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, the rubber material, due to its high elasticity and good recovery, can closely fit the surface of the intake manifold to form an effective seal. The tight fit not only reduces the risk of leakage, but also improves the sealing efficiency and durability of the sealing ring.

[0030] In addition, rubber materials generally have good weather resistance and corrosion resistance, and can resist the erosion of fuel, engine oil and other chemicals, so that the rubber sealing ring can maintain stable performance during long-term use and extend its service life.

[0031] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0032] 1. By setting the claws, the sealing ring body is fixed to the intake manifold only by the snap action. At the same time, during the disassembly process, the sealing ring can be removed from the intake manifold by simply prying the claws, which is convenient for maintenance and replacement. The design greatly shortens the installation time and improves work efficiency.

[0033] 2. The anti-slip barbs allow the claws to be more firmly fixed to the mounting surface of the intake manifold after installation, making the seal ring more stable after installation, thereby further ensuring a close fit between the seal ring and the intake manifold, and thus facilitating further improvement of sealing performance.

[0034] 3. By setting a trapezoidal cross-section, it can fit more closely to the mounting surface of the intake manifold during installation, forming an effective seal, helping to prevent leakage of air, fuel or other fluids and improving sealing performance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0042] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.

[0043] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 This application is described in further detail.

[0044] The embodiment of the present application discloses a quick-install automobile intake manifold sealing ring. Figure 1The quick-install automobile intake manifold sealing ring includes a sealing ring body 1 and two groups of clamping parts 2. The two groups of clamping parts 2 are respectively arranged on both sides of the sealing ring body 1. Each group of clamping parts 2 is evenly arranged along the length direction of the sealing ring body 1. The clamping parts 2 and the sealing ring body 1 are integrally formed.

[0045] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The clamping portion 2 extends radially outward along the sealing ring body 1 to form a claw, each claw having a free end 21 and a connecting end 22, wherein the distance between the free end 21 of the claw and the sealing ring body 1 is greater than the distance between the connecting end 22 of the claw and the sealing ring body 1.

[0046] During installation, the free end 21 of the claw is moved to increase the distance between the free end 21 of the claw and the connecting end 22 of the claw. Then, the sealing ring body 1 is clamped on the intake manifold and the sealing ring body 1 is pressed so that the connecting end 22 of the claw is tightly against the port of the intake manifold. Then, the free end 21 of the claw is loosened so that the free end 21 of the claw is tightly against the pipe wall of the intake manifold.

[0047] When disassembly is required, the claw is pried and the free end 21 of the claw is twisted. The free end 21 of the claw drives the connecting end 22 of the claw to twist, and the connecting end 22 of the claw drives the sealing ring body 1 to be pulled out, thereby facilitating maintenance and replacement and improving work efficiency.

[0048] Reference Figure 2 The sealing ring body 1 is provided with multiple sealing ring bodies 1, and the multiple sealing ring bodies 1 are connected by a clamping block 11 and a buckle 12. One end of the clamping block 11 is fixedly connected to the edge of the sealing ring body 1, and the buckle 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the sealing ring body 1 away from the clamping block 11. The clamping block 11 and the buckle 12 are clamped and connected.

[0049] When in use, before installation, first engage the block 11 on the sealing ring body 1 on the buckle 12 to form a long strip of the sealing ring body 1. When wear occurs, the sealing ring body 1 can be replaced separately, which facilitates maintenance and improves work efficiency.

[0050] Reference Figure 3 The sealing ring body 1 is an annular structure, and the cross section of the sealing ring body 1 is trapezoidal, with the bottom edge of the trapezoidal shape of the sealing ring body 1 facing the inside of the annular structure of the sealing ring body 1. The claw is provided with anti-slip barbs 23, and the number of the anti-slip barbs 23 is multiple and evenly distributed on the inner side of the claw.

[0051] The material of the clamping portion 2 is an elastic material, and in the embodiment of the present application, the elastic material is rubber. The material of the anti-slip barb 23 is an elastic material, and in the embodiment of the present application, the elastic material is rubber.

[0052] When in use, during installation, press the free end 21 of the claw, and multiple barbs to prevent falling off can increase the contact area and contact pressure between the sealing ring and the installation surface of the intake manifold, forming multi-point fixation, so that the claw can be more firmly fixed on the installation surface of the intake manifold after installation, preventing the sealing ring from falling off due to vibration or external force, making the sealing ring more stable after installation, thereby further ensuring the close fit between the sealing ring and the intake manifold, and making it easy to further improve the sealing performance.

[0053] The implementation principle of the quick-install automobile intake manifold sealing ring of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: before installation, the clamping block 11 on the sealing ring body 1 is first engaged with the buckle 12 to form a long strip of the sealing ring body 1;

[0054] During installation, the free end 21 of the clamping claw is bent, and then the sealing ring body 1 is clamped on the intake manifold. The sealing ring body 1 is pressed so that the connecting end 22 of the clamping claw is tightly against the intake manifold port. Then, the free end 21 of the clamping claw is released and the free end 21 of the clamping claw is pressed. The multiple barbs increase the contact area and contact pressure between the sealing ring and the installation surface of the intake manifold, forming a multi-point fixation, so that the free end 21 of the clamping claw is tightly against the pipe wall of the intake manifold.

[0055] During disassembly, the claw is pried and the free end 21 of the claw is twisted. The free end 21 of the claw drives the connecting end 22 of the claw to twist, and the connecting end 22 of the claw drives the sealing ring body 1 to be pulled out, thereby facilitating maintenance and replacement and improving work efficiency.

[0056] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
