[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and beneficial effects of the utility model clearer, the technical scheme of the utility model is further explained below in combination with the drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the utility model and do not limit the utility model.
[0023] Referring to Figs. 1-2 The utility model provides a kind of muffler structure, applied to engine, the engine includes cylinder body 12;The muffler structure includes:
[0024] Muffler body 1;
[0025] Cover assembly, including front cover 2 and rear cover 3, the front cover 2 and the rear cover 3 are detachably connected, and installation cavity 4 with four periphery closed, opposite two ends open is formed between them, the two open ends of the installation cavity 4 are defined as air inlet 5 and air outlet 6, the air inlet 5 and the air outlet 6 are respectively arranged in the rear cover 3 and the front cover 2, the air inlet 5 and the air outlet 6 are configured as first heat dissipation path, and the muffler structure body is located in the first heat dissipation path;
[0026] Air guide 7, is arranged in the front cover 2, for being configured as second heat dissipation path with the air outlet 6;
[0027] Among them, the first heat dissipation path and the second heat dissipation path are used for heat dissipation to the muffler structure body, and the first heat dissipation path is also used for heat dissipation to the cylinder body 12.
[0028] In this embodiment, the muffler body 1 is responsible for reducing the noise generated by the engine exhaust, the cover assembly includes a front cover 2 and a rear cover 3, the two parts can be disassembled and connected, and a mounting cavity 4 is formed between the two parts, which is closed on all sides and open at both ends. One end of the mounting cavity 4 is the air inlet 5 for connecting the engine cylinder body 12, and the other end is the air outlet 6, which is located on the rear cover 3 and the front cover 2 respectively. The first cooling path is formed between the air inlet 5 and the air outlet 6, and the cold air of the first cooling path is supplied by the exhaust fan arranged on the left side of the cylinder body, which is used to cool the engine cylinder body 12, and then discharged from the air outlet 6 behind the muffler, which can cool and reduce noise at the same time. On the other hand, the air inlet 7 on the front cover 2 together with the air outlet 6 forms the second cooling path, and the cold air of the second cooling path is supplied by the exhaust fan arranged on the right side of the cylinder body. The air inlet 7 of the front cover 2 introduces external airflow, which converges with the airflow of the air outlet 6 of the first cooling path to form a "double airflow superposition effect", forming a negative pressure area at the tail of the muffler body 1 to accelerate the exhaust of hot air. The second cooling path can cool the muffler body 1 and the front cover 2 separately, reduce the temperature of the muffler body 1 and the front cover 2, and reduce the aging, damage and other problems caused by high temperature of the muffler and related components, thereby prolonging the service life of the muffler body 1.
[0029] A plurality of first mounting boss groups 8 are arranged between the rear cover 3 and the cylinder body 12, and each first mounting boss group 8 is connected by a first fastening bolt. Further, a plurality of second mounting boss groups 9 are arranged between the front cover 2 and the rear cover 3, and each second mounting boss group 9 is connected by a second fastening bolt.
[0030] In this embodiment, a plurality of first mounting boss groups 8 are arranged between the rear cover 3 and the engine cylinder body 12, and the rear cover 3 is firmly connected to the engine cylinder body 12 by using first fastening bolts; a plurality of second mounting boss groups 9 are also arranged between the front cover 2 and the rear cover 3, and each second mounting boss group 9 is connected by a second fastening bolt, so that the front cover 2 and the rear cover 3 can be stably combined together while maintaining their detachability, which is convenient for checking, maintaining or replacing the internal components.
[0031] The mounting gap is formed between the muffler body 1 and the inner wall of the mounting cavity 4, and the mounting gap extends along the direction of the first cooling path.
[0032] In this embodiment, a mounting gap is formed between the muffler body 1 and the inner wall of the mounting cavity 4, and this mounting gap extends along the direction of the first heat dissipation path. The heat dissipation path between the air inlet 5 and the air outlet 6 not only includes the airflow passage through the inside of the muffler body 1, but also includes the space between the outside of the muffler body 1 and the inner wall of the mounting cavity 4. By providing a mounting gap between the muffler body 1 and the inner wall of the mounting cavity 4, the space for air flow can be increased, so that heat can be dissipated more effectively, and both the muffler body 1 and the engine block 12 can be better cooled. Since the muffler generates a large amount of heat during operation, if the muffler body 1 directly contacts the inner wall of the mounting cavity 4, thermal stress may be generated due to uneven thermal expansion of the material caused by temperature difference, resulting in structural damage. The provision of a mounting gap helps to alleviate this situation and protect the equipment from thermal damage.
[0033] The air guide opening 7 is located at the bottom of the front cover 2. Further, the center line of the air outlet is perpendicular to the center line of the air guide opening 7.
[0034] In this embodiment, the air guide opening 7 is located at the bottom of the front cover 2. By locating the air guide opening 7 at the bottom, the principle of hot air rising can be utilized to allow cool air to enter from a lower position, forming an effective air flow path and thus improving heat dissipation efficiency. The center line of the air outlet is perpendicular to the center line of the air guide opening 7, which can effectively avoid direct conflict between the inlet and outlet air flows, ensuring smooth flow of the air flow.
[0035] The front cover 2 is provided with an air guide boss 10, and the air guide opening 7 is located between the air guide boss 10 and the air outlet.
[0036] In this embodiment, the design of the air guide boss 10 helps to better control and guide the incoming cooling air, ensuring that it flows along the intended path, thereby improving the overall heat dissipation performance and preventing the incoming cool air from the air guide opening 7 from flowing back into the engine block 12.
[0037] The rear cover 3 is provided with a flow guide plate 11, which extends along the direction of the first heat dissipation path.
[0038] In this embodiment, the rear cover 3 is provided with a flow guide plate 11, which extends along the direction of the first heat dissipation path. The flow guide plate 11 is used to guide the airflow from the air inlet 5 to the air outlet 6, making it flow more smoothly and efficiently through the space around the muffler body 1, thereby improving the overall heat dissipation effect.
[0039] The embodiment also provides an engine comprising the muffler structure, and the specific structure of the engine is referred to the above embodiment.
[0040] Finally, it should be pointed out that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model and not to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the utility model can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solutions of the utility model, and all should be covered in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
