Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of silencer elbows, in particular to a silencer elbow for exhaust of a generator set. Background Art
[0002] Generator sets, as core equipment for power supply, are widely used in various industrial, commercial, and residential sectors. However, during generator set operation, the noise generated by their exhaust systems often becomes a significant source of environmental pollution and public nuisance. To effectively control and reduce this noise, generator set exhaust silencing elbows have emerged. Silencer elbows are noise reduction devices specifically designed for use in generator set exhaust systems. They not only guide airflow for smooth exhaust, but more importantly, significantly reduce the noise generated during the exhaust process, thereby protecting the surrounding environment and human health. With growing environmental awareness and increasingly stringent noise pollution regulations, the demand for generator set exhaust silencing elbows is becoming increasingly urgent, making them an indispensable component of generator set equipment. While various generator set exhaust silencing elbow designs are available on the market, conventional technologies still exhibit numerous shortcomings in practical application. For one thing, conventional silencing elbows often employ relatively simple or simplistic noise reduction structures, such as relying solely on sound-absorbing materials or simple flow-guiding designs. This results in limited noise reduction effectiveness when dealing with complex noise spectrums, particularly low-frequency noise. On the other hand, the durability and stability of traditional silencer elbows are also major problems. In harsh working environments such as high temperature, high pressure, and corrosive gases, the sound-absorbing material is prone to aging, deformation, and even falling off, resulting in a significant decrease in noise reduction performance. In addition, the complex structural design and high manufacturing costs are also important factors that make it difficult to widely promote traditional silencer elbows. These problems not only affect the overall performance of the generator set exhaust system, but may also have long-term adverse effects on the surrounding environment and personnel health. Therefore, a more efficient, stable, and economical silencer elbow for generator set exhaust is urgently needed to replace traditional technology.
[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN203797910U discloses a silencer elbow, which achieves a certain degree of noise attenuation through a combination of a cylindrical shell, a glass wool sound-absorbing layer, a perforated galvanized sheet, an inlet flange, and an outlet flange. Among them, the glass wool sound-absorbing layer serves as the core noise reduction component, reducing noise by absorbing and reflecting sound waves. However, when the above patent is in use, its noise reduction effect is limited by the material and structure of the glass wool sound-absorbing layer. The attenuation effect for high-frequency noise is particularly obvious, but it is powerless in dealing with low-frequency noise. In addition, the design structure of this patent is relatively complex, the manufacturing cost is high, and during long-term use, the glass wool sound-absorbing layer may cause the noise reduction performance to decline due to factors such as moisture and aging. For this reason, we propose a silencer elbow for generator exhaust. Utility Model Content

[0014] (3) Beneficial effects
[0015] Compared with the existing technology, the utility model provides a silencer elbow for generator set exhaust, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. This generator set exhaust muffler elbow, referring to the comparative document CN203797910U, discloses a technology that uses a glass wool sound-absorbing layer as the primary noise reduction method. However, this technology has limited attenuation of low-frequency noise. This application document utilizes a carefully designed multi-layer gas baffle, air vents, and guide teeth, effectively attenuating high-frequency noise while also excelling in suppressing low-frequency noise. The multi-layered baffle structure causes the gas to be diverted, reflected, and collided multiple times within the elbow, significantly reducing the transmission efficiency of low-frequency noise.
[0017] 2. The generator set exhaust muffler elbow achieves exceptional sealing performance through close frictional contact between the sealing strip and the second half of the elbow pipe, as well as the secure fit between the threaded ring, the second threaded ring, and the retaining nut, effectively preventing gas leakage. This design not only ensures the integrity of the exhaust system but also provides a stable foundation for subsequent muffler treatment, ensuring a sustained and stable noise reduction effect.
[0018] 3. The combined design of the generator set's exhaust muffler elbow, baffle plate 15, and vent pipe 16, along with the vent holes 17 on the vent pipe, optimizes and refines airflow. The baffle plate effectively blocks direct airflow, while the vent pipe provides a narrow channel, squeezing and diverting the air as it passes through. The vent holes 17 further refine the airflow, allowing it to exit the elbow in a smoother and more orderly manner, effectively reducing eddies and turbulence, thereby lowering noise levels.

[0038] 8. Gas baffle 11: inserted into the bottom of the inner wall of the half elbow tube 1, the ventilation circular hole 12 is opened to force the gas to be diverted when passing through, forming multiple reflections and collisions to reduce noise. It is located on the bottom inner wall of the half elbow tube 1, and there are three groups of them, arranged in parallel.
[0039] 9. Second gas baffle 13: inserted on one side of the inner wall of the half elbow pipe 1, located above the gas baffle 11, and further forces the gas to change its flow direction through the second ventilation circular hole 14, increasing the number of collisions and reducing noise. It is perpendicular to the gas baffle 11 and is provided with four groups, arranged parallel to each other.
[0040] 10. Baffle 15: Located above the second gas baffle 13, it effectively blocks the direct rise of gas, provides support for the vent pipe 16, and is inserted into the top inner wall of the half elbow pipe 1.
[0041] 11. Vent pipe 16: provides a narrow channel for gas discharge. The vent holes 17 on it further refine the airflow, allowing the gas to be discharged more smoothly. It is fixedly connected to the top output end of the baffle 15 and the bottom passes through the baffle 15.
[0042] 12. Vent 17: It is provided on the outer wall of the vent pipe 16 so that the gas is further squeezed and diverted when passing through, thereby reducing noise and being evenly distributed on the outer wall of the vent pipe 16.
[0043] 13. Second baffle 18: Located at the top of the vent pipe 16, it is inserted into the inner wall of one end of the half elbow pipe 1 to further fix and seal the vent pipe 16. It is located at the top output end of the vent pipe 16.
[0044] 14. Guide teeth 19: Arranged in an arc shape, they guide the gas out of the elbow in a more orderly manner, reduce the generation of eddies and turbulence, and reduce noise. They are fixedly connected to the top output ends of the half elbow pipe 1 and the second half elbow pipe 3 and are evenly arranged in a circular shape.
[0045] Working Principle: First, the frictional contact between the sealing strip 2 and the second half-elbow tube 3, as well as the tight fit between the threaded ring 4, the second threaded ring 5, and the fixing nut 6, ensure the sealing and stability of the entire elbow structure. This design not only prevents gas leakage but also provides a solid foundation for subsequent noise reduction. Next, after entering the half-elbow tube 1, the gas is first blocked by gas baffles 11. The vent holes 12 on these baffles force the gas to divert as it passes through, resulting in multiple reflections and collisions, effectively reducing the gas's flow rate and kinetic energy, initially achieving a noise reduction effect. The gas then continues upward and encounters further obstruction from the second gas baffle 13. The second vent holes 14 on these baffles are perpendicular to the vent holes of the gas baffle 11, further forcing the gas to change its flow direction, increasing its residence time and the number of collisions within the elbow, thereby further reducing noise. The combined design of the baffle 15 and vent pipe 16 plays a key role in the gas flow path. The baffle, located above the second gas baffle, effectively blocks the direct upward movement of the gas, while the vent tube provides a relatively narrow passage, further squeezing and diverting the gas as it passes through. The vent holes 17 on the vent tube further refine the airflow, allowing it to exit more smoothly. Furthermore, the design of the guide teeth 19 is also an important component of the noise reduction effect. These arc-shaped guide teeth guide the gas out of the elbow in a more orderly manner, reducing the generation of vortices and turbulence, thereby reducing noise.
[0046] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
