Figure 1 The cylinder structure 100 of this embodiment is, for example, a cylinder structure of an internal combustion engine for a vehicle, and includes a plurality of cylinders 110 and a cylinder head 120 covering these cylinders 110. These cylinders 110 each have combustion chambers 1101, 1102, and 1103, which are arranged along a cylinder bank formed by these cylinders 130. The cylinder head 120 includes a cylinder head body 122 and an exhaust passage 124 integrated with the cylinder head body 120. The exhaust passage 124 includes a plurality of exhaust sections (shown as a pair of exhaust sections 1241A, a pair of exhaust sections 1241B, and a pair of exhaust sections 1241C) and an exhaust manifold 1242.

[0028] One end of each of the exhaust sections 1241A, 1241B, and 1241C is connected to each of the combustion chambers 1101, 1102, and 1103, and the other ends of each of the exhaust sections 1241A, 1241B, and 1241C are connected to an exhaust manifold 1242. The exhaust manifold 1242 is connected to the catalyst device 60 via the exhaust pipe 50. Although not shown in detail, the catalyst device 60 contains a catalyst for purifying components in the exhaust gas. Waste from the combustion chambers 1101, 1102, and 1103 flows through the exhaust sections 1241A, 1241B, and 1241C to the exhaust manifold 1242, and then reaches the catalyst device 60 via the exhaust manifold 1242 and the exhaust pipe 50, where it is purified by the catalyst device 60 and then discharged. The detailed operation of the cylinders of the vehicle's internal combustion engine and the functioning of the catalyst device are known in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0029] Figure 2 Show Figure 1 Please refer to the exhaust passage. Figure 2In the present embodiment, the exhaust portion 1241A has an arc surface S1 curved toward the inner side of the exhaust passage 124, the exhaust portion 1241B has an arc surface S2 curved toward the inner side of the exhaust passage 124, and the exhaust portion 1241C has an arc surface S3 curved toward the inner side of the exhaust passage 124. More specifically, the arc surface S1 is an outer surface of the exhaust portion 1241A and is a concave arc surface, the arc surface S2 is an outer surface of the exhaust portion 1241B and is a concave arc surface, and the arc surface S3 is an outer surface of the exhaust portion 1241C and is a concave arc surface. The exhaust passage 124 forms a trumpet shape extending from the exhaust collection portion 1242 through the arc surface S1 of the exhaust portion 1241A and the arc surface S3 of the exhaust portion 1241C. Accordingly, the flow paths of the exhaust portions 1241A, 1241B, and 1241C are expanded by the arc surfaces S1, S2, and S3 of the exhaust portions 1241A, 1241B, and 1241C, the trumpet shape of the exhaust passage 124, and the flow paths of the exhaust portions 1241A, 1241B, and 1241C are smooth and increased in length, and the exhaust gas can flow smoothly along the exhaust portions 1241A, 1241B, and 1241C to the exhaust collection portion 1242, and the heat dissipation area of the exhaust passage 124 is increased. Thus, the cylinder structure 100 of the present embodiment can increase the flow rate and heat dissipation efficiency of the exhaust portions 1241A, 1241B, and 1241C.

[0030] Figure 3 is Figure 2 a cross-sectional view of the exhaust passage along the line I-I. In the present embodiment, the combustion chamber 1101 is connected to a pair of exhaust portions 1241A as shown in Figure 1 , the pair of exhaust portions 1241A meet at a meeting position P1 (indicated by Figure 2 ) and have a spectacle-shaped cross section 1241a (indicated by Figure 3 ) between the meeting position P1 and the exhaust collection portion 1242. Similarly, the combustion chamber 1102 is connected to a pair of exhaust portions 1241B as shown in Figure 1 , the pair of exhaust portions 1241B meet at a meeting position P2 (indicated by Figure 2 ) and have a spectacle-shaped cross section similar to the spectacle-shaped cross section 1241a of Figure 3 , which is not shown here. Similarly, the combustion chamber 1103 is connected to a pair of exhaust portions 1241C as shown in Figure 1 , the pair of exhaust portions 1241C meet at a meeting position P3 (indicated by Figure 2 ) and have a spectacle-shaped cross section similar to the spectacle-shaped cross section 1241a of Figure 3The eyeglass-shaped cross section 1241a of the exhaust portion 1241A, 1241B, 1241C is not shown here. The structure of the eyeglass-shaped cross section of the exhaust portion 1241A, 1241B, 1241C can further increase the surface area of the exhaust portion 1241A, 1241B, 1241C to improve the heat dissipation performance.

Similarly, the central exhaust portion (the pair of exhaust portions 1241B) has the aforementioned curved surface S2 in the area of the aforementioned eyeglass-shaped cross section. Accordingly, the curved surfaces S1, S2, S3 increase the extension range of the area of the eyeglass-shaped cross section of the exhaust portions 1241A, 1241B, 1241C, respectively, and the heat dissipation area of the exhaust portions 1241A, 1241B, 1241C can be greatly increased.

[0032] In summary, in the cylinder structure of the present application, the exhaust portion of the exhaust passage has a curved surface curved toward the inner side, so that the exhaust passage forms a bell mouth shape. Accordingly, through the bell mouth shape of the exhaust passage, the flow path of the exhaust portion is expanded, the flow path of the exhaust portion is smooth and the length is increased, and further, the exhaust gas can flow smoothly along the exhaust portion to the exhaust collection portion, and the heat dissipation area of the exhaust passage is increased. Therefore, the cylinder structure of the present application can increase the flow rate and heat dissipation efficiency of the exhaust portion.
