[0028] Engine oil coking refers to a series of chemical reactions that occur under high temperature, high pressure and oxidation, resulting in deterioration and thickening of engine oil, and ultimately forming coke-like substances.
[0029] In the prior art, the oil-gas separator of the vehicle separates the gas discharged from the crankcase, and the gas discharged from the oil-gas separator is compressed in the air compressor and enters the combustion chamber of the engine for combustion.
[0030] The compressor works on gas to compress the gas, and the internal energy of the gas increases during the compression process, thereby increasing the temperature of the compressor. The gas separated by the oil-gas separator still contains oil. The gas discharged from the oil-gas separator enters the compressor, and because the temperature of the compressor is relatively high, a large risk of oil coking exists in the compressor impeller and the inner cavity, and the coking of the compressor impeller and the inner cavity will cause the efficiency of the compressor to decrease.
[0031] To at least solve the problem of the large risk of oil coking in the compressor impeller and the inner cavity in the prior art. Embodiments of the present application propose a compressor shell 100, which can reduce the risk of coking of the compressor inlet passage, the mounting cavity, the compressor outlet passage and the compressor wheel by heating the second shell 2 to make the gas in the heating gas passage coking, thereby reducing the oil content in the gas.
[0032] The compressor shell 100 of the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0033] As shown in Figure 1 , the compressor shell 100 of the embodiments of the present application comprises a first shell 1 and a second shell 2. The first shell 1 is provided with a compressor inlet passage, a compressor outlet passage and a mounting cavity for mounting a compressor wheel, and the compressor inlet passage and the compressor outlet passage are both in communication with the mounting cavity; the second shell 2 is arranged on the first shell 1, the second shell 2 is in thermal contact with the first shell 1, and the second shell 2 is provided with a heating gas passage, the gas inlet 22 of the heating gas passage is used for communication with the oil-gas separator, and the gas outlet 23 of the heating gas passage is in communication with the compressor inlet passage.
[0034] When the compressor works, it does work on the gas to compress the gas, and the internal energy of the gas increases during the compression process, thereby increasing the temperature of the first shell 1. The second shell 2 is arranged on the first shell 1, and the second shell 2 can heat the gas in the heating gas passage by absorbing the heat of the first shell 1, so that the oil in the gas cokes in the heating gas passage, thereby reducing the oil content in the gas, and further reducing the risk of coking of the compressor inlet passage, the mounting cavity, the compressor outlet passage and the compressor wheel.
[0035] As shown in Figure 1 , in some embodiments, the first shell 1 comprises a compressor inlet portion 11, a mounting portion 12 and a compressor outlet portion 13, the compressor inlet portion 11 and the compressor outlet portion 13 are both connected with the mounting portion 12, the compressor inlet portion 11 is provided with a compressor inlet passage, the mounting portion 12 is provided with a mounting cavity, the compressor outlet portion 13 is provided with a compressor outlet passage, and at least part of the second shell 2 is arranged on the compressor outlet portion 13.
[0036] The gas in the first shell 1 is compressed and enters the compressed gas outlet channel. Since the compressed gas has high internal energy, the compressed gas outlet part 13 has high temperature. By arranging at least part of the second shell 2 at the compressed gas outlet part 13, the heat absorption efficiency of the second shell 2 can be improved, thereby increasing the amount of oil in the gas coking in the heating gas channel, and further reducing the coking risk of the compressed gas inlet channel, the mounting cavity, the compressed gas outlet channel and the compressor wheel.
[0037] As shown in Figure 1 some embodiments, the mounting part 12 is located between the compressed gas inlet part 11 and the compressed gas outlet part 13, and the extension direction of at least part of the second shell 2 is the same as the extension direction of the compressed gas outlet part 13.
[0038] By arranging at least part of the second shell 2 in the same extension direction as the compressed gas outlet part 13, the length of the second shell 2 and the heating gas channel can be increased, thereby improving the efficiency of removing oil in the gas.
[0039] Moreover, by arranging at least part of the second shell 2 in the same extension direction as the compressed gas outlet part 13, the heat absorption efficiency of the second shell 2 can be improved, thereby increasing the amount of oil in the gas coking in the heating gas channel, and further reducing the coking risk of the compressed gas inlet channel, the mounting cavity, the compressed gas outlet channel and the compressor wheel.
[0040] In some embodiments, the second shell 2 includes a main body part and a cover plate, the main body part is located outside the first shell 1 and arranged at the side of the compressed gas outlet part 13 away from the mounting part 12, the main body part is provided with a heating gas channel, the heating gas channel forms a process opening at the side away from the compressed gas outlet part 13, and the cover plate is arranged on the main body part and closes the process opening.
[0041] By forming the process opening in the main body part, the production difficulty of the main body part can be reduced, and by closing the process opening with the cover plate, the heating gas channel can work normally. Therefore, by the main body part and the cover plate, the forming difficulty of the second shell 2 and the heating gas channel can be reduced under the condition that the second shell 2 and the heating gas channel work normally.
[0042] As shown in Figure 1 some embodiments, part of the second shell 2 is arranged at the side of the mounting part 12 away from the compressed gas inlet part 11, and another part of the second shell 2 is arranged at the side of the compressed gas outlet part 13 away from the mounting part 12, the inlet port 22 and the outlet port 23 are located at the side of the second shell 2 away from the compressed gas inlet part 11, the inlet port 22 is used to communicate with the oil-gas separator through the first pipeline, and the outlet port 23 is used to communicate with the compressed gas inlet channel through the second pipeline.

The air inlet 22 and the air outlet 23 are both located on the side of the second shell 2 away from the air inlet portion 11, which can reduce the difficulty of connecting the air inlet 22 with the first pipeline and the difficulty of connecting the air outlet 23 with the second pipeline, so that the structure of the air compressor shell 100 in the embodiment is reasonably distributed.
[0044] In addition, by arranging the second shell 2 in the embodiment, the coking in the second shell 2 can be cleaned, so that the cleaning difficulty of the coking in the second shell 2 is reduced.
[0045] In some embodiments, part of the outer wall of the first shell 1 is configured as part of the inner wall of the heating air channel.
[0046] The gas in the heating air channel can be directly heated by the outer wall of the first shell 1, so that the heating effect of the gas in the heating air channel is improved, and the amount of coking of the machine oil in the gas in the heating air channel is increased, so that the coking risk of the air inlet channel, the mounting cavity, the air outlet channel and the air compressor wheel is further reduced.
[0047] In some embodiments, the air inlet 22 is located at one end of the second shell 2, and the air outlet 23 is located at the other end of the second shell 2.
[0048] By locating the air inlet 22 at one end of the second shell 2 and the air outlet 23 at the other end of the second shell 2, the space in the heating air channel can be fully utilized, so that the gas in the heating air channel is sufficiently heated, the amount of coking of the machine oil in the gas in the heating air channel is increased, and the coking risk of the air inlet channel, the mounting cavity, the air outlet channel and the air compressor wheel is further reduced.

The second shell 2 is arranged on the first shell 1, and the second shell 2 can heat the gas in the heating air channel by absorbing the heat of the first shell 1, so that the machine oil in the gas is coked in the heating air channel, the content of the machine oil in the gas is reduced, and the coking risk of the air inlet channel, the mounting cavity, the air outlet channel and the air compressor wheel is reduced.
