AI Technical Summary
In 12-cylinder or larger diesel engines, the installation of twin turbochargers on one side of the engine results in a narrow maintenance space and difficulty in operation. In addition, the turbochargers are far away from the cylinders, which affects combustion efficiency.
The turbocharger is installed in the cylinder angle area of the V-type engine and fixed with a turbocharger mounting plate. The turbine end and compression end pipelines are designed along the cylinder arrangement direction, which increases maintenance space and reduces the distance between the turbocharger and the cylinder. The pressurized gas enters the cylinder faster to promote combustion.
The maintenance space of the turbocharger is increased, the distance between the turbocharger and the cylinder is shortened, and the combustion efficiency and turbine response speed are improved.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of engine technology, and in particular to an engine arrangement structure with a mid-mounted turbocharger. Background Art
[0002] To improve fuel economy, diesel engines typically incorporate an intake air boost system. Existing diesel engines primarily utilize turbocharging because diesel exhaust gas has greater pressure and volume than gasoline engines, allowing it to reach the required pressure to drive the turbine blades more quickly. A turbocharging system primarily consists of an exhaust manifold, turbocharger, intercooler, and intake manifold. The intake manifold connects to the engine cylinders.
[0003] Twelve-cylinder and larger diesel engines typically use twin turbochargers to provide sufficient intake air. However, twin turbochargers are larger, and existing diesel engines typically mount them on one side of the engine. In mining vehicles, to ensure the structural strength of the engine compartment, a larger frame ring beam is designed to enclose the engine compartment, resulting in limited space in the engine compartment.
[0004] Therefore, when the turbocharger needs to be repaired or replaced, the space in the engine compartment is limited and the turbocharger is located between the frame ring beam and the engine, resulting in a small maintenance space and difficult operation.
[0005] Therefore, the present application provides an engine arrangement with a mid-mounted turbocharger. Utility Model Content
[0006] In order to overcome the problems existing in the related art, the present application provides an engine arrangement structure with a mid-mounted turbocharger, comprising: a turbocharger, a turbocharger mounting plate, a compression end pipe, and a turbine end pipe;
[0007] The supercharger mounting plate is arranged in a cylinder angle region of the V-shaped engine, wherein the cylinder angle region is located between the angles formed by two groups of cylinders of the V-shaped engine, and the cross section of the cylinder angle region perpendicular to the cylinder arrangement direction is V-shaped;
[0008] The supercharger mounting plate is adapted to the shape of the angled area, and the turbocharger is mounted on the supercharger mounting plate;
[0009] The turbine end pipe is used to circulate the exhaust gas that drives the turbine end impeller, and the pressure end pipe is used to circulate the air compressed by the pressure end impeller.
[0010] In one embodiment, two turbochargers are provided, and the turbocharger mounting plate is fixed to the outer wall of the cylinder body of the engine through screw holes.
[0011] In one embodiment, the supercharger mounting plate includes: a first turbine support plate and a second turbine support plate;
[0012] The first turbocharger and the second turbocharger are mounted on the first turbine support plate and the second turbine support plate, respectively.
[0013] In one embodiment, the first turbine support plate and the second turbine support plate are arranged side by side perpendicular to the cylinder arrangement direction.
[0014] In one embodiment, the length direction of the turbine end pipe is arranged along the cylinder arrangement direction within the cylinder angle region.
[0015] In one embodiment, the turbine end pipe is fixed to the supercharger mounting plate arranged below the turbocharger, the turbine end pipe is fixed to the outer wall of the cylinder body of the engine, and the length direction of the turbine end pipe is along the cylinder arrangement direction.
[0016] In one embodiment, an intercooler is further included; the intercooler is connected to the compressed air outlet of the turbocharger and the cylinder intake manifold of the engine.
[0017] In one embodiment, a lubricating oil pipeline is further included; the lubricating oil pipeline is connected to the turbine shaft and the oil storage tank of the turbocharger.
[0018] In one embodiment, a turbine cooling pipe is further included; the turbine cooling pipe is connected to the turbocharger and the engine cooler.
[0019] The technical solution provided by this application may have the following beneficial effects:
[0020] In this application, the turbocharger is installed in the cylinder angle area of a V-type engine, above the cylinder. The frame ring beam is arranged circumferentially around the side of the engine. When the turbocharger is repaired, it can avoid the obstruction of the frame ring beam, increasing the working space. Furthermore, the placement of the turbocharger 1 above the cylinder reduces the distance between the turbocharger and the cylinder. This allows the pressurized gas to enter the cylinder more quickly through the intake manifold, promoting combustion and increasing the turbine's response speed.

[0030] In order to improve the versatility of turbocharged diesel engines for different frame ring beam structures, the present application provides an engine layout structure with a mid-mounted turbocharger, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes: a turbocharger 1, a turbocharger mounting plate 2, a compression end pipe and a vortex end pipe 31.
[0031] In a V-type engine, the cylinders are arranged in two groups along the length of the crankshaft. Each cylinder's piston connecting rod is connected to the crankshaft at one end, and the two groups of cylinders are arranged at a certain angle, so that the two groups of cylinders form a plane with an angle.
[0032] like Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 3 , in a cross-sectional view viewed in the direction of cylinder arrangement, the cylinder angle region 3 is the angle region formed by the two cylinder groups of the V-type engine. Figure 3 In the area marked by the dotted line, the cylinder angle area 3 has a V-shaped cross section perpendicular to the cylinder arrangement direction.
[0033] Specifically, the supercharger mounting plate 2 is positioned within the cylinder angle of a V-shaped engine. The supercharger mounting plate 2 conforms to the shape of the cylinder angle region 3, and the turbocharger 1 is mounted on the supercharger mounting plate 2. A gas flow channel connects the engine cylinders for turbocharging the gas flow. The gas flow channel consists of a compression end channel and a turbine end channel 31.
[0034] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to provide the required intake air volume for the large-displacement engine, the turbocharger 1 includes a first turbocharger 11 and a second turbocharger 12 .
[0035] Corresponding to the turbocharger 1 , the turbocharger mounting plate 2 includes: a first turbine support plate 21 and a second turbine support plate 22 ; the first turbocharger 11 and the second turbocharger 12 are mounted on the first turbine support plate 21 and the second turbine support plate 22 , respectively.
[0036] Structurally, the first turbine support plate 21 and the second turbine support plate 22 are arranged side by side perpendicular to the cylinder arrangement direction, and the first turbocharger 11 and the second turbocharger 12 are installed above the cylinders.
[0037] In order to reduce the volume of the engine assembly, the turbine end pipe 31 of the embodiment of the present application is arranged between the turbocharger 1 and the engine, and the length direction of the turbine end pipe 31 is along the cylinder arrangement direction.
[0038] Furthermore, the gas flow pipeline also includes an intercooler; the intercooler is connected to the compressed air outlet of the twin turbocharger 1 and the intake manifold.
[0039] Furthermore, it also includes a lubricating oil pipeline 4; the lubricating oil pipeline 4 is connected to the turbine shaft and the oil storage tank of the turbocharger 1.
[0040] Furthermore, it also includes a turbine cooling pipe 5; the turbine cooling pipe 5 connects the turbocharger 1 and the engine cooler.
[0041] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to improve the space utilization of the engine compartment, the turbocharger 1, exhaust pipe and other accessories are installed in the cylinder angle area 3 of the V-type engine, making the engine structure assembly more compact.
[0042] In this embodiment, the turbocharger 1 is installed in the cylinder angle region 3 of a V-type engine, above the cylinder. The frame ring beam is circumferentially arranged around the side of the engine. When performing maintenance on the turbocharger 1, the frame ring beam is avoided, increasing the working space. Furthermore, the placement of the turbocharger 1 above the cylinder reduces the distance between the turbocharger 1 and the cylinder, allowing the pressurized gas to enter the cylinder more quickly through the intake manifold, promoting combustion and increasing the turbine's response speed.
[0043] Various embodiments of the present application have been described above. The above description is exemplary, not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments.
