When a component is considered "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or may have a component in between. When a component is considered "set on" another component, it can be directly set on the other component or may have a component in between. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.

[0021] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0022] Please combine Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model provides an automotive exhaust muffler, which includes a housing 1, an intake pipe 2, and an exhaust pipe 3. The intake pipe 2 is fixedly installed at one end of the housing 1, and the exhaust pipe 3 is fixedly installed at the other end of the housing 1. A first partition 4, a second partition 5, a third partition 6, and a fourth partition 7 are fixedly installed inside the housing 1.

[0023] A Helmholtz chamber 8 is formed between one side of the first partition 4 and the inner surface of the outer shell 1. A first noise reduction chamber is formed between the first partition 4 and the second partition 5. A second noise reduction chamber is formed between the second partition 5 and the third partition 6. A third noise reduction chamber is formed between the fourth partition 7 and the outer shell 1. A partition chamber is formed between the third partition 6 and the fourth partition 7.

[0024] A second connecting pipe 12 is fixedly installed between the second partition 5 and the fourth partition 7. The second connecting pipe 12 connects the first noise reduction cavity and the third noise reduction cavity. A first connecting pipe 11 is fixedly installed between the third partition 6 and the fourth partition 7. The first connecting pipe 11 connects the second noise reduction cavity and the third noise reduction cavity.

[0025] A first air supply pipe 9 and a second air supply pipe 10 are fixedly installed on one end of the air intake pipe 2. Both the first air supply pipe 9 and the second air supply pipe 10 are fixedly connected to the inside of the outer shell 1. One end of the first air supply pipe 9 is connected to the first noise reduction cavity, and one end of the second air supply pipe 10 is connected to the second noise reduction cavity.

[0026] The intake pipe 2 receives the exhaust gas discharged from the catalytic converter and disperses it into the first air supply pipe 9 and the second air supply pipe 10. The first air supply pipe 9 delivers a portion of the exhaust gas to the first noise reduction chamber, and the second air supply pipe 10 delivers a portion of the exhaust gas to the second noise reduction chamber. The exhaust gas in the first noise reduction chamber collides with the first baffle 4 and the second baffle 5, forming sound waves opposite to the noise waves in the exhaust gas, thus completing noise reduction. The exhaust gas in the exhaust gas collides with the second baffle 5 and the third baffle 6 and forms a sound wave opposite to the noise wave in the exhaust gas, thus completing the noise reduction. The first noise reduction chamber and the second noise reduction chamber respectively reduce the noise of the exhaust gas transported by the intake pipe 2, and the noise reduction effect is better. After the noise in the exhaust gas has been treated once, the exhaust gas in the first noise reduction chamber enters the third noise reduction chamber through the second connecting pipe 12, and the exhaust gas in the second noise reduction chamber also enters the third noise reduction chamber through the first connecting pipe 11, and continues to reduce noise in the third noise reduction chamber.

[0027] One end of the exhaust pipe 3 passes through the Helmholtz chamber 8, the first noise reduction chamber, the second noise reduction chamber, and the partition chamber, and the other end of the exhaust pipe 3 is connected to the third noise reduction chamber. The exhaust gas entering the third noise reduction chamber will move towards the middle of the third noise reduction chamber. The exhaust gas entering the third noise reduction chamber through the first connecting pipe 11 moves in the opposite direction to the exhaust gas entering the third noise reduction chamber through the second connecting pipe 12. Finally, they will enter the exhaust pipe 3 together. The exhaust gas also has the effect of reducing noise after meeting, further improving the noise reduction effect of the exhaust gas.

[0028] A liquid storage box 13 is fixedly installed on one end of the outer casing 1. Parts of the air inlet pipe 2, the first air supply pipe 9, and the second air supply pipe 10 are located inside the liquid storage box 13. The inside of the liquid storage box 13 is used to store coolant, which can be water. It can absorb the heat in the exhaust gas and reduce the damage of the heat in the exhaust gas to the outer casing 1.

[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model in any way. Those skilled in the art can readily implement this utility model based on the accompanying drawings and the above description. However, any modifications, alterations, or equivalent variations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the utility model's technical solution, utilizing the disclosed technical content, are considered equivalent embodiments of this utility model. Furthermore, any equivalent changes, alterations, or variations made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model's technical solution.
