[0023] The core of this invention is to provide a methanol-diesel engine atomizing premixing device. Based on a specific structure, it utilizes the Venturi effect to form atomized methanol. The atomized particles are significantly smaller than the methanol particles sprayed from the pressure nozzle, resulting in a more uniform mixing of methanol and air and more complete combustion. Another core aspect of this invention is to provide a diesel engine including the aforementioned methanol-diesel engine atomizing premixing device.

[0024] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a specific embodiment of the methanol-diesel engine atomization premixing device provided by this utility model.

[0026] This utility model provides a methanol-diesel engine atomization premixing device, including a methanol atomization component and a mixing chamber component. Methanol is atomized in the methanol atomization component and then fed into the mixing chamber component, where the atomized methanol is thoroughly mixed with pressurized air. The methanol atomization component includes a compressed air pipe 1, an atomized methanol injection pipe 2, and a methanol intake pipe 3. The inlet of the compressed air pipe 1 is connected to a compressed air source, and the outlet of the compressed air pipe 1 is connected to the inlet of the atomized methanol injection pipe 2, with both pipes arranged coaxially. The inlet of the methanol intake pipe 3 is connected to a methanol source, and the outlet of the methanol intake pipe 3 is connected to the inlet of the atomized methanol injection pipe 2. The extending direction of the methanol intake pipe 3 is perpendicular to the compressed air pipe 1 and the atomized methanol injection pipe 2, i.e., the compressed air pipe 1, the atomized methanol injection pipe 2, and the methanol intake pipe 3 form a T-shaped pipe structure. The mixing chamber assembly includes a pressurized air pipe 4, a mixing injection pipe 5, and an atomized methanol delivery pipe 6. The inlet of the pressurized air pipe 4 is connected to a pressurized air source, and the outlet of the pressurized air pipe 4 is connected to the inlet of the mixing injection pipe 5, with both arranged coaxially. The outlet of the atomized methanol delivery pipe 6 is connected to the junction of the pressurized air pipe 4 and the mixing injection pipe 5. The extension direction of the atomized methanol delivery pipe 6 is perpendicular to the pressurized air pipe 4 and the mixing injection pipe 5. The outlet of the atomized methanol injection pipe 6 is connected to the inlet of the atomized methanol delivery pipe 6, with both arranged coaxially. The outlet of the mixing injection pipe 5 is connected to a diesel engine.

[0027] During operation, compressed air blows straight through compressed air pipe 1 and atomized methanol injection pipe 2. Due to the Venturi effect created by the high-speed airflow at methanol intake pipe 3, methanol is drawn into atomized methanol injection pipe 2, where it is atomized into particles by the impact of the airflow. Further, pressurized air blows straight through pressurized air pipe 4 and mixing injection pipe 5. Due to the Venturi effect created by the high-speed airflow at atomized methanol delivery pipe 6, atomized methanol is drawn into the mixing chamber, accelerating its entry speed and ensuring thorough mixing with the pressurized air before entering the combustion chamber for combustion.

[0028] The methanol atomizing assembly, through the arrangement of compressed air pipe 1, atomized methanol spray pipe 2, and methanol intake pipe 3, utilizes the Venturi effect to spray atomized methanol, which then enters the mixing chamber assembly. The mixing chamber assembly, through the arrangement of pressurized air pipe 4, mixing spray pipe 5, and atomized methanol delivery pipe 6, utilizes the Venturi effect to fully mix with pressurized air. Compared with traditional pressure atomizing nozzles, it has a better atomization effect, and the droplet particles are significantly smaller than those of pressure nozzles, resulting in a more uniform mixing of methanol and air and more complete combustion.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 This is a front view schematic diagram of the methanol atomization component in a specific embodiment of the methanol-diesel engine atomization premixing device provided by this utility model. Figure 3This is a side view of the methanol atomization component in a specific embodiment of the methanol-diesel engine atomization premixing device provided by this utility model.

[0030] In the methanol-diesel atomizing premixing device provided in the specific embodiment of this utility model, a multi-hole nozzle 7 is installed at the inlet end inside the atomizing methanol injection pipe 2, and the multi-hole nozzle 7 is provided with multiple through holes that penetrate axially.

[0031] Specifically, the multi-hole nozzle 7 is provided with multiple alternating straight nozzles 9 and multiple Laval nozzles 10, including three straight nozzles 9 and three Laval nozzles 10. The number and arrangement of each nozzle can also be adjusted as needed, all within the protection scope of this utility model. Compressed air enters the multi-hole nozzle 7 through the compressed air pipe 1. Through the multiple Laval nozzles 10 and straight nozzles 9 on the multi-hole nozzle 7, the compressed air will cause a cross-jet phenomenon after being discharged through the nozzles. The methanol intake pipe 3 is drawn into the multi-hole nozzle 7 due to the Venturi effect formed by the high-speed airflow. When methanol and high-speed airflow both enter the interior of the atomizing methanol spray pipe 2, due to the action of the cross-jet high-speed airflow, the methanol is continuously collided under the impact of the cross-jet airflow and the action of low air pressure, causing the droplets to break into small methanol vapor particles, thereby improving the atomization effect.

[0032] For stable installation, a limiting platform is provided at the inlet end of the multi-hole nozzle 7, which abuts against the outlet end face of the compressed air pipe 1. Simultaneously, a gap is provided between the outer wall of the multi-hole nozzle 7 and the inner wall of the atomized methanol spray pipe 2. An opening aligned with this gap is provided on the side wall of the atomized methanol spray pipe 2, which is connected to the outlet of the methanol suction pipe 3. Connecting flanges are provided at both ends of the atomized methanol spray pipe 2, with sealing rings at the flanges. Connections can be made via flange bolts or threads, both within the protection scope of this utility model. The multi-hole nozzle 7 can also be installed inside the mixing spray pipe 5 to improve the mixing effect.

[0033] Based on the methanol-diesel engine atomization premixing device provided in the above specific embodiments, a mixing sleeve 8 is installed at the outlet end inside the atomized methanol injection pipe 2. The inner diameter of the mixing sleeve 8 gradually decreases and then increases from the inlet to the outlet, changing the airflow direction and further improving the atomization mixing effect.

[0034] In addition to the methanol-diesel engine atomization premixing device described above, this utility model also provides a diesel engine including the methanol-diesel engine atomization premixing device described above. For the structure of other parts of the diesel engine, please refer to the prior art, which will not be repeated here.

Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The descriptions of the embodiments above are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of ​​this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
