[0035] like Figure 2-5 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a general-purpose muffler, comprising a muffler housing 2 having an expansion chamber 1 and a muffler structure 3 disposed in the muffler housing 2, wherein the muffler structure 3 comprises at least one reactive muffler unit 4, wherein:

[0036] A sealing plate 5 is radially arranged in the muffler shell 2, which divides the expansion chamber 1 into a first chamber 11 and a second chamber 12. A first mounting through hole 51 is opened in the middle of the sealing plate 5, and the muffler structure 3 is installed in the first mounting through hole 51. The two ends of the muffler structure 3 are respectively embedded in the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12 and connect the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12.

[0037] The general-purpose muffler of the embodiment of the present application is provided with a sealing plate 5 radially arranged in a muffler housing 2 having an expansion chamber 1, and the expansion chamber 1 is divided into a first chamber 11 and a second chamber 12 by the sealing plate 5. A first mounting through hole 51 is opened in the middle of the sealing plate 5, and a muffler structure 3 having at least one resistive muffler unit 4 is installed in the first mounting through hole 51, and the two ends of the muffler structure 3 are respectively embedded in the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12 and connect the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12, thereby effectively improving the muffler performance of the general-purpose muffler under the premise of ensuring that the installation space of the muffler is not increased.

[0038] In one embodiment, the resistive silencer unit 4 includes an inner tube 41 arranged along the axial direction of the silencer, and a silencer baffle 42 is provided at the air outlet end of the inner tube 41. The silencer baffle 42 and the inner tube 41 form a resonance chamber 43. A second mounting through hole 421 and an air vent 422 are provided on the silencer baffle 42. The air vent 422 is used to connect the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12. A ventilation pipe 44 is provided through the second mounting through hole 421. The ventilation pipe 44 is used to connect the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12. The resistive silencer unit 4 in this embodiment is provided with an inner tube 41, and a silencer baffle 42 with air holes 422 is provided at the air outlet end of the inner tube 41. The air holes 422 on the silencer baffle 42 can control the impedance of the airflow on the one hand, and on the other hand, the silencer baffle 42 and the inner tube 41 form a resonance chamber 43, so that the sound reaches the resonance frequency in the resonance chamber 43, thereby realizing the conversion from sound energy to kinetic energy and achieving the silencer effect.

[0039] Specifically, the aperture and number of the vent holes 422 on the muffler baffle 42 and the diameter of the vent pipe 44 can be set through experiments according to the frequency range of the noise to be eliminated.

[0040] In one embodiment, the muffler structure 3 includes multiple reactive muffler units 4, each of which is arranged in series along the axial direction of the muffler, with adjacent reactive muffler units 4 fixedly connected. This embodiment effectively enhances the muffler effect by providing multiple reactive muffler units 4 in series. It should be noted that the number of reactive muffler units 4 can be determined experimentally based on the desired noise frequency range.

[0041] In one embodiment, the air inlet end of the inner tube 41 of the rear reactive muffler unit 4 is sealed and connected to the air outlet end of the inner tube 41 of the front reactive muffler unit 4 by welding. This ensures the connection reliability of the two adjacent reactive muffler units 4 and also seals the connection between the two reactive muffler units 4, effectively enhancing the resonance effect and thus the muffler effect.

[0042] In one embodiment, the number of reactive muffler units 4 is an odd number, and the outer wall of the inner tube 41 of the middle reactive muffler unit 4 is sealed to the inner wall of the first mounting hole 51. This arrangement enables uniform muffler silencing in the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12, reduces the loudness of the muffler, and improves the sound quality of the muffler.

[0043] In one embodiment, the air inlet end of the vent pipe 44 extends into the resonance chamber 43, and the air outlet end of the vent pipe 44 is arranged to protrude relative to the air outlet side of the muffler baffle 42. This effectively increases the exhaust gas processing time in the muffler, allowing the sound to better resonate in the resonance chamber 43 formed between the outer wall of the vent pipe 44, the muffler baffle 42, and the inner tube 41, thereby improving the sound reduction effect.

[0044] In one embodiment, the muffler housing 2 includes an outer tube 21, an air inlet pipe 22, an air outlet pipe 23, a first outer sealing plate 24 and a second outer sealing plate 25. The diameters of the air inlet pipe 22 and the air outlet pipe 23 are the same and are both smaller than the diameter of the outer tube 21. One end of the outer tube 21 is connected to the air inlet pipe 22 through the first outer sealing plate 24, and the other end of the outer tube 21 is connected to the air outlet pipe 23 through the second outer sealing plate 25. The first outer sealing plate 24, the outer tube 21 and the second outer sealing plate 25 form an expansion chamber 1.

[0045] In one embodiment, the outlet end of the inlet pipe 22 extends into the first chamber 11, and the inlet pipe 22 of the outlet pipe 23 extends into the second chamber 12. This arrangement can effectively increase the processing time of the exhaust gas in the muffler and enhance the muffler effect.

[0046] like Figure 6-Figure 8 As shown, Figure 6 yes Figure 1 The sound pressure cloud diagram of the existing general engine muffler is shown. Figure 7 yes Figure 5 The sound pressure cloud diagram of the general muffler in the embodiment of the present application is shown. Figure 8 yes Figure 5 The muffler of the present application embodiment is shown in FIG. Figure 1 The figure shows a comparison of the outlet response characteristic curves of existing general-purpose mufflers.

[0047] By comparison Figure 6 and Figure 7It can be seen that the general machine muffler in the embodiment of the present application can effectively reduce the sound pressure on the surface of the muffler cylinder, thereby reducing noise.

[0048] By comparison Figure 8 The blue curve in ( Figure 1 The outlet response characteristic curve of the existing general-purpose muffler shown) and the orange curve ( Figure 5 As shown in the outlet response characteristic curve of the general-purpose muffler in the embodiment of the present application, it can be seen that the general-purpose muffler in the embodiment of the present application can effectively reduce the outlet response in the low-frequency band, thereby reducing the loudness of the muffler, reducing noise, and improving the sound quality of the muffler.

[0049] An embodiment of the present application also provides an engine exhaust system, comprising the engine-wide muffler in any of the above embodiments.

[0050] It should be noted that, since the engine exhaust system includes the general muffler in any of the above embodiments, the engine exhaust system has the same technical effects as the general muffler in each of the above embodiments. The specific structure of the engine exhaust system belongs to the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0051] An embodiment of the present application also provides a general engine, including the engine exhaust system in the above embodiment.

In some instances, well-known methods, structures, and techniques are not shown in detail in order not to obscure the understanding of this specification.

[0054] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features therein.
