[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Reference Figures 1-3 As shown, one embodiment of this utility model provides a vehicle air filter with snow-proof air intake, including an air filter body 1. Multiple mounting frames 4 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the air filter body 1. A fixing frame 6 is provided on the inner wall of each mounting frame 4. A slot 5 is provided on the inner wall of each mounting frame 4. A locking block 10 is provided on the inner wall of each slot 5. The shape of the locking block 10 fits the slot 5. The outer wall of each locking block 10 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 6. A sliding rod 8 is slidably connected to the inner wall of each fixing frame 6. Multiple connecting rods 9 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of each sliding rod 8. The other end of each connecting rod 9 is rotatably connected to a locking block. The inner wall of the slide rod 8 and the outer wall of the slide rod 8 are both provided with rotating rings 12. The bottom end of the rotating rings 12 is fixedly connected to the limiting rings 13. The inner wall of the slide rod 8 is provided with limiting grooves 11. The outer wall of the limiting rings 13 is provided on the inner wall of the limiting grooves 11. The shape of the limiting rings 13 fits the limiting grooves 11. The top of the rotating rings 12 is fixedly connected to the threaded sleeves 14. The lower side of the inner wall of the fixing frame 6 is provided with threaded grooves. The outer wall of the threaded sleeves 14 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded grooves. The inner wall of the fixing frame 6 is provided with multiple sliding grooves 7. The shape of the mounting frame 4 fits the sliding grooves 7 for the disassembly and assembly of the air filter body 1.

[0026] Specifically, the fixing frame 6 is installed inside the vehicle body by bolts passing through the through holes. When it is necessary to disassemble the air filter body 1, simply rotate the rotating ring 12 and push the slide bar 8 upward to remove the air filter body 1 from the fixing frame 6. The operation is simple, and maintenance personnel can quickly complete the disassembly of the air filter without spending a lot of time on complicated disassembly procedures, thereby improving maintenance efficiency, shortening the overall vehicle maintenance time, and reducing the labor costs of the repair shop.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the fixed frame 6 has through holes at all four ends, the air filter body 1 has a first baffle 2 fixedly connected to the inner wall, and the air filter body 1 has a second baffle 3 fixedly connected to the bottom end, so as to block most of the snowflakes.

[0028] Specifically, by setting the first baffle 2 and the second baffle 3, the solid snowflakes are effectively blocked, so that the air entering the air filter body 1 remains unobstructed, ensuring that the engine has enough fresh air for combustion, maintaining normal operation, and avoiding problems such as reduced engine power, vibration or even stalling due to insufficient air intake.

[0029] Working principle: First, during use, air enters the second baffle 3 from the lower left side of the air filter body 1, blocking the snowflakes for the first time. Simultaneously, the air passes through the second baffle 3 to the first baffle 2, blocking most of the snowflakes. The air then enters the air filter body 1 and the vehicle body to the right. When disassembling the air filter body 1, the rotating ring 12 is rotated, causing the threaded sleeve 14 to rotate. This causes the threaded sleeve 14 to rotate within the threaded groove, moving it upwards and pushing the limiting ring 13 out of the limiting groove 1. Remove the slide bar 8 from the slot 5 and push it upwards. The slide bar 8 will rotate the connecting rods 9 on both sides and cause the locking blocks 10 on both sides to slide inwards. Remove the locking blocks 10 from the slots 5, and then remove the air filter body 1 downwards to complete the disassembly. When installing, first align the four mounting frames 4 with the slide grooves 7 and push them upwards. After installation, pull the slide bar 8 downwards to lock the locking blocks 10 into the slots 5 respectively. Then rotate the rotating ring 12 in the opposite direction to lock the limiting ring 13 into the limiting groove 11 to limit the slide bar 8, thus completing the installation.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
