Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of diesel engine intake pipe, and specifically relates to a diesel engine intake pipe. Background Technology

[0002] The diesel engine intake manifold is a key component connecting the air filter and the engine cylinders. Its main function is to provide the engine with sufficient and clean air and optimize the intake airflow to improve combustion efficiency. The intake manifold typically includes straight sections, bends, pressure stabilizing chambers, or resonant chambers. The resonant chamber is used to improve volumetric efficiency by utilizing the intake pulsation effect. However, if the volume of the resonant chamber is not adjustable, it will have significant drawbacks. These drawbacks mainly stem from its inability to adapt to the dynamic demands of the engine under different operating conditions. First, a resonant chamber with a fixed volume will limit the engine's intake efficiency under varying operating conditions. When the diesel engine speed and load change, the pulsation frequency of the intake airflow changes accordingly, and the volume of the resonant chamber needs to be matched to effectively utilize the pressure wave effect to enhance the intake volume. If the volume is not adjustable, the resonance effect can only be achieved at specific speeds. At other speeds, the intake efficiency decreases, resulting in insufficient torque at low speeds or limited power at high speeds. Therefore, we aim to design a diesel engine intake manifold to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

By adjusting the volume of the corrugated resonant box 21, the intake pressure wave frequency at different speeds can be matched. The resonance effect is used to enhance the intake volume in a specific speed range and improve the cylinder charging efficiency.
