Description
Snail-shaped electric horn with breathable, waterproof, and heat-dissipating structure Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of snail-shaped electric horn technology, and more specifically, to a breathable, waterproof, and heat-dissipating structure for a snail-shaped electric horn. Background Technology
[0002] The snail-shaped electric horn is a common type of electric horn used in cars, motorcycles, and other vehicles, named for its snail-shell-like shape. It uses electromagnetic principles to drive internal contacts to open and close, emitting a warning sound. It is widely used in cars, motorcycles, and electric vehicles. Snail-shaped electric horns typically feature waterproofing, heat dissipation, and breathability. Special structural designs (such as waterproof and breathable membranes and threaded fastening structures) enhance their durability and reliability in complex environments. Furthermore, they have a loud volume and stable sound quality, effectively transmitting warning signals and are suitable for various road conditions and weather conditions. Due to its compact structure and stable performance, this type of electric horn has become an important choice in the high-end automotive parts market.
[0003] A search revealed an existing patent (publication number: CN219107646U) that discloses a basin-shaped electric horn assembly, including a housing, an upper plate on the housing, a diaphragm on the upper plate, a resonating plate on the diaphragm, a lower plate, an insulating plate, and a lower plate connected to the upper plate by screws, contacts on the upper and lower plates, two contacts in contact with each other, an armature on the upper plate, a moving iron core on the armature, a connector on the housing, a fixing block fixedly connected to the connector, a coil frame on the housing, and a stationary iron core on the moving iron core. This utility model, by incorporating components such as a fixing block, a connecting sleeve, and a limiting bracket, allows the connector to be inserted into the connector by the limiting bracket engaging the locking block within the fixing block, thus limiting the connection and ensuring a more stable and secure connection without loosening.
[0004] While the snail-shaped electric horn features structural innovations, it suffers from significant shortcomings in waterproofing and heat dissipation. Firstly, the seal between the protective sleeve and the cover is not tight enough, allowing water to easily enter the horn and affect its normal operation, especially in harsh environments such as humid or rainy days. Secondly, the snail-shaped electric horn generates heat through the frequent opening and closing of internal contacts during operation, but its structural design fails to effectively dissipate this heat, leading to elevated internal temperatures and impacting the horn's performance and lifespan. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, this utility model provides a snail-shaped electric horn breathable, waterproof and heat dissipation structure to solve the problems of poor heat dissipation and sealing.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a snail-shaped electric horn with a breathable, waterproof, and heat-dissipating structure, comprising: a snail-shaped electric horn body; a waterproof and breathable device mounted on the snail-shaped electric horn body, the waterproof and breathable device being used for heat dissipation, waterproofing, and breathability of the snail-shaped electric horn body; a bolt fixing and sealing device mounted on one end of the snail-shaped electric horn body, the bolt fixing and sealing device being used for installation and waterproofing; and an auxiliary heat dissipation device mounted on one side of the snail-shaped electric horn body, the auxiliary heat dissipation device being used for auxiliary heat dissipation.

[0013] Preferably, a sealing ring is fixedly installed on the inner side of the heat dissipation mounting hole, and the sealing ring is used to prevent rainwater from entering.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] This invention transmits current to the coil frame, activating the breathable membrane inside the coil frame. Through gas exchange, it regulates the air pressure inside and outside the horn, ensuring stable sound quality at high altitudes or under complex road conditions. The chassis is tightly connected to the coil frame, and the insert protects the breathable membrane from splashes of water or mud, while also providing waterproofing. The bolt-fixing sealing device uses a thin nut and a threaded connection with the bolt core, combined with thixotropic sealant type one and type two to fill the thread gaps, ensuring stable installation and excellent waterproof performance under vibration and complex road conditions. This design, through the synergistic effect of the breathable membrane and sealant, improves the horn's waterproofing, heat dissipation, and breathability, while also enhancing installation stability and shock resistance.
[0016] This invention further optimizes heat dissipation performance through an auxiliary heat dissipation device.

Multiple sets of heat dissipation mounting holes, heat dissipation connecting rings, and heat dissipation fins are equidistantly distributed on the rear side of the horn to ensure uniform and efficient heat dissipation. At the same time, the sealing ring inside the heat dissipation mounting holes effectively prevents rainwater from entering, further improving waterproof performance. Thixotropic sealant between the threaded groove and the bolt core further enhances the sealing effect. This design, through the synergistic effect of multiple sets of heat dissipation fins and sealing rings, significantly improves the horn's heat dissipation efficiency and protective performance, extends its service life, and maintains good waterproof performance.

[0028] When the snail-shaped electric horn is powered on, the power leads transmit current to the coil frame 201.
