[0027] Reference Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a device for simulating the intake air volume and flow rate of a cold flow test bench engine, comprising:
[0028] The main unit 100 includes a frame 101, in which an engine body is placed. A cover plate 102 is slidably connected to the frame 101. A perforated plate 103 is fixedly connected to one inner wall of the frame 101. A positioning rod 104 is movably connected to the perforated plate 103. The bottom end of the positioning rod 104 moves through the cover plate 102. The engine body is placed through the frame 101, and the frame 101 is sealed by the cover plate 102 to prevent air leakage during engine intake flow rate testing.
[0029] The measuring unit 200 includes a connecting pipe 201, which is fixedly connected to the frame 101. The connecting pipe 201 is matched with the engine body. A compressor is installed on the connecting pipe 201, and a flow meter 202 is fixedly connected to the compressor. An analog component 203 is installed on the frame 101, and a stabilizing component 204 is installed inside the frame 101. The flow meter 202 displays the test data of the engine intake air flow rate, and the connecting pipe 201 facilitates the interconnection of engines of different specifications.
[0030] The simulation component 203 includes a bidirectional flow fresh air fan 203a, which is fixedly connected to the frame 101. The two output ends of the bidirectional flow fresh air fan 203a are fixedly connected to ducts 203b, and the other ends of the two ducts 203b movably pass through the frame 101. The bidirectional flow fresh air fan 203a delivers the temperature airflow required for the simulation into the frame 101, which is beneficial for simulating the cold flow environment of the engine body in actual operation.
[0031] Furthermore, the stabilizing component 204 includes two crossbars 204a, both ends of which are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame 101. The arms of the two crossbars 204a are slidably connected to two hollow plates 204b. Multiple air outlet pipes 204c are fixedly connected to the sides of the two hollow plates 204b that are close to each other. Anti-slip pads 204d are fixedly connected to the two hollow plates 204b. The hollow plates 204b are pushed by the gas, which causes the anti-slip pads 204d to clamp and fix the engine body, improving the stability of the equipment when testing the intake air flow of the engine body and preventing shaking that could affect the accuracy of the test. The multiple air outlet pipes 204c can quickly change the simulated temperature inside the frame 101, improving the testing efficiency of the equipment. At the same time, the anti-slip pads 204d prevent damage to the engine body from force and the crossbars 204a guide the hollow plates 204b to prevent misalignment.
[0032] Furthermore, collars 205 are fixedly connected to both sides of the two hollow plates 204b that are far apart from each other. Multiple collars 205 are slidably connected to the corresponding crossbars 204a. A pressure sensor 206 is fixedly connected to one of the hollow plates 204b. The collars 205 prevent the movement of the movable plates 204b on both sides from affecting the use of the pressure sensor 206 and the exhaust fan 207. At the same time, the pressure sensor 206 detects the air pressure in the frame 101 to prevent excessive pressure from affecting the testing and use of the engine body.
[0033] Furthermore, an exhaust fan 207 is fixedly connected to one inner wall of the frame 101. The input end of the exhaust fan 207 moves through another hollow plate 204b, and the output end of the exhaust fan 207 moves through the frame 101. The exhaust fan 207 helps to relieve pressure on the frame 101 and keep the internal air pressure stable.
[0034] Furthermore, a regulated power supply is installed within the frame 101, and the regulated power supply is interconnected with the compressor, flow meter 202, bidirectional flow fresh air unit 203a, pressure sensor 206, and exhaust fan 207 via internal wiring harnesses. The compressor, flow meter 202, bidirectional flow fresh air unit 203a, pressure sensor 206, and exhaust fan 207 in the overall equipment are all existing technologies, and will not be described in detail here.
[0035] During use, the engine body is placed on the frame 101, and then the frame 101 is sealed by the cover plate 102 to prevent air leakage during engine intake flow rate testing. The test data of engine intake flow rate is displayed by the flow meter 202, and the connecting pipe 201 facilitates the interconnection of engines of different specifications. The bidirectional flow fresh air fan 203a delivers the required temperature airflow to the frame 101, which is beneficial for simulating the cold flow environment of the engine body in actual operation. The hollow plate 204b is pushed by the gas, which clamps and fixes the anti-slip pad 204d to the engine body, improving the stability of the equipment during engine intake flow rate testing and preventing shaking that could affect the accuracy of the test. The simulated temperature inside the frame 101 can be quickly changed through multiple air outlet pipes 204c, improving the testing efficiency of the equipment. At the same time, the anti-slip pad 204d avoids damage to the engine body due to force, and the crossbar 204a guides the hollow plate 204b to prevent misalignment.
[0036] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
