Technical Field

[0002] An exhaust heat shield for a diesel engine is a device used to enclose the exhaust system. It is typically made of high-temperature resistant materials such as ceramic fiber, glass fiber, or metal composites. Its main function is to reduce the heat emitted by the exhaust system, lower the ambient temperature, and prevent heat from damaging nearby components, equipment, and personnel. Simultaneously, the exhaust heat shield also provides some sound insulation and noise reduction, decreasing the noise generated during diesel engine operation. Furthermore, it can improve the thermal efficiency of the diesel engine because reduced heat loss allows for more efficient utilization of exhaust energy. Moreover, the exhaust heat shield protects the exhaust system itself, slowing down the aging and damage of its components caused by high temperatures, extending the service life of the exhaust system, and thus improving the reliability and stability of the entire diesel engine system.
[0003] Existing exhaust heat shields are typically fixed to the diesel engine exhaust pipe surface using bolts and pre-drilled mounting holes. However, in actual use, high temperatures can alter the mechanical properties of the bolt materials, and combined with the vibrations of the diesel engine during operation, the bolts are prone to fatigue fracture. Furthermore, after repeated disassembly and maintenance, the bolt holes may experience wear, stripping, and other problems, affecting the heat shield's fixation effectiveness. Utility Model Content

[0025] In practical use, the equally spaced slots 2 are used to make the insert block 3 plug in and engage with it to fix it together, thereby stably and firmly fixing the connection of the heat insulation cover body 1.
[0026] Preferably, the bump 5 has a "T" shaped structure, and the shape and size of the bump 5 are adapted to the slot 6.
[0027] In practical use, the heat shield body 1 is placed on the diesel engine pipe, and then the slot 6 opened on one side is used to insert and fix the protrusion 5.
[0028] Preferably, the limiting block 7 has a "T" shaped structure, with semi-circular rubber blocks 8 on both sides of its horizontal end. The shape and size of the semi-circular rubber blocks 8 are adapted to the groove opened at the upper end where the slot 6 and the heat insulation cover body 1 intersect.
[0029] In practical use, the limiting block 7 and the semi-circular rubber block 8 are inserted and locked onto the top of the protrusion 5, thereby fixing the position of the protrusion 5 on the slot 6.
[0030] Preferably, the other side surface of the connector 13 is connected to the surface of the protective cover 12, and the protective cover 12 is located at the intersection of the rectangular block and the fixing ear 11 and is threadedly connected to the screw 14.
[0031] In practical use, the protective cover 12 is fixed by fitting the inner wall of the fixing ears 11 distributed in a ring on the surface of the heat insulation cover body 1, and the screw 14 is threaded through the rectangular block on the surface of the protective cover 12 and connected to the fixing ears 11, thereby fixing the position of the two protective covers 12 on the surface of the heat insulation cover body 1.

[0033] In practical use, the connector 13 is used to plug into the intersection of the two protective covers 12, thereby increasing the contact area of the open ends of the two and preventing the protective covers 12 from shifting during docking.
[0034] Preferably, the fixing ear 11, the protective cover 12, the connector 13 and the screw 14 form a threaded connection structure.
[0035] In practical use, the protective cover 12 is fixed by fitting the inner wall of the fixing ears 11 distributed in a ring on the surface of the heat insulation cover body 1, and the screw 14 is threaded through the rectangular block on the surface of the protective cover 12 and connected to the fixing ears 11, thereby fixing the position of the two protective covers 12 on the surface of the heat insulation cover body 1. Then, the two sets of protective covers 12 are joined together to wrap and protect the surface of the heat insulation cover body 1.
[0036] Working principle: When using the heat shield body 1 to provide heat insulation protection for the diesel engine exhaust pipe, the heat shield body 1 is placed on the diesel engine pipe. Then, the slot 6 on one open end is used to insert and fix the protrusion 5. The limiting block 7 and the semi-circular rubber block 8 are inserted and engaged to fix the top of the protrusion 5, thus fixing the position of the protrusion 5 in the slot 6. This, in turn, fixes the position of the connecting plate 4 at one open end of the heat shield body 1. At this time, the equally spaced inserts 3 on one side of the connecting plate 4 are inserted and engaged in the slot 2, thus fixing the position of the heat shield body 1 on the surface of the diesel engine exhaust pipe. In this design, the inserts 3, limiting blocks 7, and semi-circular rubber blocks 8 are all made of high-temperature resistant rubber, capable of withstanding the high temperatures during the operation of the heat shield body 1. The slot 2 and inserts 3 are engaged to fix the connection between the two open ends of the heat shield body 1. Simultaneously, the sealing film 9 connected to the surface of the heat shield body 1 near the connecting plate 4 is inserted into the limiting sleeve 10. The rubber material of the sealing film 9 and the limiting sleeve 10 increases the heat shield body's position. The friction between the two contact surfaces is increased to fix the connection between them, thereby filling the gap at the intersection of the heat insulation cover body 1 and preventing hot air from escaping from the gap and affecting other surrounding components and the environment. After the heat insulation cover body 1 is fixed in place, the protective cover 12 is fixed by using the inner wall of the fixing ears 11 distributed in a ring on the surface of the heat insulation cover body 1. The screw 14 is threaded through the rectangular block on the surface of the protective cover 12 and connected to the fixing ear 11, thereby fixing the position of the two protective covers 12 on the surface of the heat insulation cover body 1. The two sets of protective covers 12 are then used to abut together to wrap and protect the surface of the heat insulation cover body 1, so that there is a gap between the heat insulation cover body 1 and other external components, preventing the heat insulation cover body 1 from being damaged by particle impact. At the same time, after the insertion block 3 ages due to long-term use, the limiting block 7 that is engaged in the slot 6 is pulled out, thereby removing the protrusion 5 and connecting plate 4 inserted in the slot 6 and replacing the aged insertion block 3 to ensure the connection stability and firmness of the heat insulation cover body 1.
