TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of automobile intake system, specifically, the utility model relates to an intake hose assembly. BACKGROUND
[0002] The automobile intake hose assembly is an indispensable component in the power system of a vehicle, mainly used for connecting an air cleaner and an engine intake manifold, and is responsible for delivering filtered air to the engine.
[0003] The intake hose assembly is a pipeline of a traditional and hybrid automobile intake system, used for connecting a supercharger, a throttle valve and an air cleaner assembly, and transporting clean air filtered by the air cleaner. At the same time, the intake hose assembly needs to overcome a temperature of about 60℃ to 130℃, a negative pressure of about -10kpa, and vibration and impact from the vehicle and the engine. With the development of economy, customers not only have basic functional requirements for vehicles, but also require lower costs. This leads to the need to consider lower-cost processes and materials in product design while meeting functional requirements. In particular, when designing the pipeline of a supercharged engine and a range extender, the heat resistance requirement for the pipeline is even higher. Therefore, it is particularly necessary to design a low-cost and high-temperature-resistant intake hose when the intake hose pipeline is long. The intake hose assembly generally includes a corrugated pipe, an air cleaner end interface and an engine side interface, and some vehicle models also integrate a muffler. The intake hose body composed of the corrugated pipe and the interface is generally made of EPDM / NBR+PVC materials, but considering the temperature resistance of the engine side interface, the rubber pipe will use AEM / FKM+VMQ materials with higher temperature resistance. However, the cost of AEM materials is higher than that of EPDM materials.
[0004] Chinese patent CN103147888A disclosed on June 12, 2013 discloses an intake hose for a vehicle and a manufacturing method thereof, which cannot solve the problem of using low-cost rubber on the low-temperature side and using high-cost rubber on the high-temperature side, and cannot guarantee the use performance while reducing the cost of the product. Therefore, it is particularly important to design a rubber lining structure with different material rubber pipes connected for cost control in the intake hose product. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

The air hose body 1 has the effect of good pressure resistance, easy installation; rubber lining 9 can use AEM or VMQ material to achieve heat resistance effect, and the air hose body 1 can use low-cost EPDM or NBR+PVC material, play the role of reducing cost.
[0024] Air cleaner port 6 is connected with the first clamp 3, and the engine end interface 7 is connected with the second clamp 4. The first clamp 3 and the second clamp 4 both play the role of connecting and fixing the pipeline, and the clamp also has a certain deflection angle and expansion capacity, which can adapt to the displacement and deformation of the pipeline caused by factors such as thermal expansion and cold shrinkage.
[0025] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the outer wall of the rubber lining 9 is provided with an anti-off boss 14, and the rubber lining 9 and the air hose body 1 are interference fit. The anti-off boss 14 is on the outer wall of the rubber lining 9, which plays a role in preventing the interface from falling off when connected; the rubber lining 9 and the air hose body 1 are interference fit, which is simple in structure and has large bearing capacity.

The rubber lining 9 can also be selected according to other use scenarios, such as low-temperature-resistant and oil-resistant rubber materials.
[0027] The engine end interface 7 is provided with a crankcase ventilation pipe 10 on one side, and the air filter end interface 6 is provided with a fuel pipe 11 on one side. The crankcase ventilation pipe 10 can adjust the pressure and temperature in the crankcase, prevent the lubricating oil from deteriorating due to high temperature and fuel dilution, thereby prolonging the service life of the oil and reducing the wear and corrosion of mechanical parts. The crankcase ventilation pipe 10 can introduce the gas in the crankcase into the intake pipe, reduce the pressure and temperature in the crankcase, prevent gas leakage, and help lubricating oil maintain normal performance. The main function of the fuel pipe 11 is to transmit the fuel sprayed by the fuel injection pipe to the air inlet hose body 1 and mix with the air entering the engine to form combustible atomized mixture.

The protrusion 12 is mainly used to protect the air inlet hose body 1 from damage from the external environment, such as preventing wear, tearing and aging. Especially in high temperature and high pressure environment, this protection structure is particularly important.
[0030] The outer wall of one side of the air inlet hose body 1 is provided with a protrusion 13. The protrusion 13 is a corrugated pipe with shock absorption and noise reduction functions. The corrugated pipe can connect pipelines of different diameters and can compensate for the length deformation and displacement of the pipeline caused by factors such as temperature change and vibration. This makes the pipeline system stable in various environments, and is usually made of high-temperature-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials, which can ensure the safe and stable operation of the pipeline system in high temperature, high pressure and corrosive environment.
[0031] The protrusion 12 is a grid structure, and the protrusion 13 is a ring. The protrusion 12 on the outer wall is a grid structure, and the protrusion 13 is a ring-shaped corrugated pipe.
