[0002] Loaders are mainly used in various places with harsh working conditions such as various mines, quarrying sites, earthwork sites, etc. The air in these places is dusty, so in order to ensure the normal air intake of the engine intake system, a pre-filter is usually added to the engine intake system to remove impurities in the air in advance.
[0003] The engine's air filter is located inside the hood, while the pre-filter is located outside. Currently, the air filter and pre-filter are connected directly. To ensure the hood opens properly, a slotted hole must be created in the hood. The slotted hole's diameter must be larger than the pre-filter's maximum diameter, leaving enough clearance for assembly. This slotted hole leaves the hood top unsealed, increasing external noise and allowing dust and rainwater to enter the cabin, while also affecting the aesthetics. Utility Model Content
[0004] In response to the defects or shortcomings in the existing technology, the utility model provides a pre-filter connection structure for a loader, which does not require a long hole to be opened on the engine hood, thereby avoiding the increase of external noise and the easy entry of dust and rainwater into the cabin, while not affecting the normal opening of the engine hood.

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] A typical implementation of the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a pre-filter connection structure for a loader includes an air filter 1 and a pre-filter 2. The air filter 1 and the pre-filter 2 are respectively arranged inside and outside the engine hood 3. A telescopic hose 4 is provided between the air filter 1 and the pre-filter 2. The top end of the telescopic hose 4 is connected to the air outlet pipe of the pre-filter 2, and the bottom end of the telescopic hose 4 is connected to the air inlet pipe of the air filter 1.
[0025] The pre-filter 2 is fixed to the engine hood 3 through a fixing base 5. The fixing base 5 includes a fixing section 51 and a connecting section 52. The fixing section 51 is a rectangular structure, which is hollow inside and has an opening at the bottom. A connecting hole is provided on the engine hood 3. The size of the connecting hole is larger than the size of the telescopic hose 4 for the telescopic hose 4 to pass through. A circular hole is provided on the top surface of the fixing section 51. The connecting section 52 is a cylindrical structure with openings at both ends. The diameter of the connecting section 52 is the same as the diameter of the circular hole. The bottom end of the connecting section 52 is fixed to the fixing section 51. The axis of the connecting section 52 coincides with the axis of the circular hole. The diameter of the connecting section 52 is smaller than the diameter of the outlet pipe of the pre-filter 2. The outlet pipe of the pre-filter 2 is sleeved on the top of the connecting section 52 and is fixed to the connecting section 52 by a first clamp.
[0026] The bottom end of the fixing section 51 is welded and fixed on the engine hood 3 and is arranged opposite the connecting hole. The bottom opening size of the fixing section 51 is larger than the connecting hole size, so that the connecting hole can be covered to prevent dust and rainwater from entering the engine compartment.
[0027] When the engine hood 3 is closed, the top end of the telescopic hose 4 passes through the connecting hole and contacts the top wall of the fixing section 51 of the fixing seat 5 .
[0028] The outer wall of the telescopic hose 4 has a corrugated structure, so that the telescopic hose 4 has a telescopic amount of 10 mm when compressed. The bottom diameter of the telescopic hose 4 is larger than the diameter of the air filter 1 intake pipe, so that the bottom of the telescopic hose 4 can be sleeved on the outside of the air filter 1 intake pipe and fixed by a second clamp to achieve a fixed connection between the telescopic hose 4 and the air filter 1.
[0029] When the engine hood 3 is closed, the top end of the telescopic hose 4 passes through the connecting hole and contacts the top wall of the fixed section 51 of the fixing seat 5, so that the connecting section 52 is connected to the telescopic hose 4. The top end of the telescopic hose 4 is adapted to the top wall of the fixed section 51. At the same time, the top wall of the fixed section 51 of the fixing seat 5 compresses the telescopic hose 4, thereby ensuring the sealing between the top wall of the fixed section 51 and the telescopic hose 4.
[0030] The utility model fixes the telescopic hose 4 to the air intake pipe of the air filter 1 and fixes the pre-filter 2 to the engine hood 3 through the fixing seat 5. When the engine hood 3 is closed, the top of the telescopic hose 4 contacts the fixing seat 5, thereby realizing the communication between the pre-filter 2 and the air filter 1 by using the telescopic hose 4 and the fixing seat 5. Figure 3 As shown, when the engine hood 3 is opened, the telescopic hose 4 is separated from the fixing seat 5, thereby not affecting the normal opening and closing of the engine hood 3.
[0031] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the present invention is susceptible to various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
