Furthermore, in practical applications, some powertrain upgrade devices are complex to install, requiring the disassembly of numerous original vehicle parts, resulting in long construction periods and high costs. Simultaneously, due to differences in powertrain design across different vehicle models, upgrade devices with poor universality cannot meet diverse needs. Therefore, the market urgently needs a more flexible and convenient powertrain upgrade solution. Utility Model Content

[0014] This utility model relates to an externally mounted integrated modular power upgrade device for automobiles, the structural design of which aims to effectively improve engine performance through the synergistic effect of multiple components. The following description, in conjunction with the appendix... Figures 1 to 3 The components are detailed in the accompanying drawings, along with their part numbers. The device mainly consists of a power enhancement unit 1, a signal processing component 2, a mounting bracket 3, and a cooling auxiliary mechanism 4. The overall function is achieved through specific connections and spatial arrangements between the components.

[0015] The power booster unit 1 is the core component of the entire device. Its rectangular housing is divided into multiple chambers to house the electronic control module 5 and the air supply booster 6. The electronic control module 5 is connected to the inner wall of the housing via a circuit board mounting bracket, ensuring its stability during operation. The air supply booster 6 is fixed to the bottom of the housing via elastic shock-absorbing pads. This fixing method effectively absorbs vibrations during operation, reducing the impact on the housing. The air intake of the air supply booster 6 is connected to the external air filter via a flexible duct, and the air outlet is connected to the vehicle's intake manifold via a metal bellows. The choice of flexible duct and metal bellows balances sealing and durability while allowing for a certain degree of displacement to adapt to changes in the engine compartment layout. The drive motor inside the air supply booster 6 is connected to the turbine blades via a gear transmission mechanism. The turbine blade speed is adjusted in real time by the electronic control module 5 according to the vehicle's operating status. This mechanical connection allows the air supply booster 6 to provide an appropriate intake volume under different operating conditions.

[0016] The signal processing component 2 is connected to the electronic control module 5 in the power enhancement unit 1 via a data transmission cable. Its housing is made of aluminum alloy and contacts the mounting bracket 3 via a thermally conductive silicone pad for heat dissipation. The signal processing component 2 includes a signal acquisition module, a signal conversion module, and an output interface. The signal acquisition module uses a magnetic sensor attached near the engine's crankshaft position sensor to acquire engine speed signals. The signal conversion module converts the acquired analog signals into digital signals and transmits them to the electronic control module 5 via the data transmission cable. The output interface is located on the side of the signal processing component 2 and features a waterproof plug design for connection to the vehicle's on-board diagnostic system. The signal processing component 2 is positioned close to the engine's critical sensing areas, facilitating efficient data acquisition by the signal acquisition module. Furthermore, the length of the connection cable between the signal processing component 2 and the power enhancement unit 1 has been optimized to avoid wiring difficulties caused by excessively long or short cables.

[0017] The mounting bracket 3 consists of a main frame 7 and a secondary support arm 8. The main frame 7 has a U-shaped structure with threaded holes at both ends for fixing to the housing of the power enhancement unit 1. The secondary support arm 8 is connected to the main frame 7 via a slide rail, which has locking bolts for adjusting the position of the secondary support arm 8. The end of the secondary support arm 8 has a rubber-coated clamping block 9 with a groove on its inner side for fitting against the fixing points in the engine compartment. A level 10 is located at the bottom of the mounting bracket 3 to ensure the device remains level during installation. The main frame 7 and the power enhancement unit 1 are fixed with bolts, ensuring a secure and reliable connection. The adjustable design of the secondary support arm 8 allows the mounting bracket 3 to adapt to the engine compartment layout of different vehicle models, while the rubber coating of the clamping block 9 protects the fixing points in the engine compartment from damage.

[0018] The cooling auxiliary mechanism 4 is located on one side of the power enhancement unit 1 and is fixed to the mounting bracket 3 via a nested snap-fit ​​structure. The cooling auxiliary mechanism 4 includes a cooling fan, an air guide shroud, and a temperature sensor. The cooling fan is fixed to the center of the air guide shroud with screws. The inlet end of the air guide shroud has a dust filter, and the outlet end is connected to the housing of the power enhancement unit 1 via a flexible hose. The temperature sensor is located on the side of the cooling fan and is connected to the electronic control module 5 via a wire to monitor the operating temperature of the cooling fan. When the temperature exceeds a preset value, the electronic control module 5 automatically increases the speed of the cooling fan to enhance the cooling effect. The air guide shroud is designed to guide the airflow direction, ensuring that the airflow generated by the cooling fan effectively covers the critical parts of the power enhancement unit 1, while the dust filter prevents external impurities from entering the cooling system.

[0019] In practical applications, the installation process of this device is as follows. First, place the mounting bracket 3 in the engine compartment. Adjust the position of the auxiliary support arm 8 to align the clamping block 9 with the fixing point in the engine compartment, and secure the position of the auxiliary support arm 8 with locking bolts. Then, fix the power enhancement unit 1 to the main frame 7 of the mounting bracket 3 with bolts, ensuring a secure and reliable connection. Next, attach the signal processing component 2 near the crankshaft position sensor of the engine and connect it to the power enhancement unit 1 via a data transmission cable. Finally, fix the cooling auxiliary mechanism 4 to the mounting bracket 3 using a snap-fit ​​structure, and connect the outlet end of the air duct to the housing of the power enhancement unit 1 via a hose. During installation, adjust the angle of the mounting bracket 3 according to the level indicator 10 to ensure the entire device is level.

[0020] During operation, the signal acquisition module of the signal processing component 2 acquires the engine speed signal through a magnetic sensor and transmits it to the signal conversion module for processing. The signal conversion module converts the analog signal into a digital signal and transmits it to the electronic control module 5 in the power enhancement unit 1 via a data transmission cable. The electronic control module 5 adjusts the turbine blade speed of the air supply booster 6 in real time based on the received signal, thereby controlling the intake air volume. The air supply booster 6 draws in air from the external air filter through a flexible pipe and delivers the boosted air to the vehicle's intake manifold through a metal bellows, thereby improving engine combustion efficiency. Simultaneously, the temperature sensor of the cooling auxiliary mechanism 4 continuously monitors the operating temperature of the radiator fan and feeds the data back to the electronic control module 5. When the temperature exceeds a preset value, the electronic control module 5 increases the radiator fan speed to enhance cooling and ensure the reliability of the device under high load operation.

[0021] The structural design of this device fully considers ease of installation and versatility. The adjustable clamping arm of the mounting bracket 3 and the level 10 ensure that the device can adapt to the engine compartment layout of different vehicle models. The connection between the power enhancement unit 1 and the signal processing component 2 has been optimized to avoid complex wiring operations. The design of the cooling auxiliary mechanism 4 further improves the stability of the device under high-load operating conditions. This device can achieve a significant improvement in power performance without changing the original structure of the vehicle, while reducing construction costs and time consumption. To better enable those skilled in the art to fully understand and implement this utility model, the following supplementary explanation of the operating principle and implementation steps of this utility model is provided in conjunction with a specific application scenario.

[0022] When installing this device on a 2.0L family sedan, first place the mounting bracket 3 in the engine compartment. Adjust the position of the secondary support arm 8 to align the clamping block 9 with the fixing point in the engine compartment, and then secure the position of the secondary support arm 8 with locking bolts. During this process, adjust the angle of the mounting bracket 3 according to the level indicator 10 to ensure the entire device is level. Subsequently, fix the power enhancement unit 1 to the main frame 7 with bolts. At this point, the elastic damping pad can absorb the vibration of the air supply supercharger 6 during operation, thereby reducing the impact on the housing. The signal processing component 2 is attached to the vicinity of the engine crankshaft position sensor via a magnetic sensor and is connected to the power enhancement unit 1 via a data transmission cable. The cooling auxiliary mechanism 4 is fixed to the mounting bracket 3 with a snap-fit ​​structure, and its air duct outlet is connected to the housing of the power enhancement unit 1 via a hose.

[0023] Once the vehicle starts, the signal acquisition module of the signal processing component 2 acquires the real-time engine speed signal through a magnetic sensor and transmits this analog signal to the signal conversion module. The signal conversion module converts the analog signal into a digital signal and transmits it to the electronic control module 5 via a data transmission cable. Based on the received signal, the electronic control module 5 calculates the required intake air volume under the current operating conditions and adjusts the turbine blade speed via the drive motor. Changes in the turbine blade speed directly affect the output pressure of the air supply booster device 6, thereby altering the flow rate of air drawn in through the flexible duct. The boosted air is then delivered to the vehicle's intake manifold through a metal bellows, improving combustion efficiency.

[0024] Meanwhile, the temperature sensor in the cooling auxiliary mechanism 4 continuously monitors the operating temperature of the cooling fan and feeds the data back to the electronic control module 5. When the temperature exceeds a preset value, the electronic control module 5 increases the speed of the cooling fan to enhance the cooling effect. The design of the air shroud allows airflow to effectively cover the key parts of the power enhancement unit 1, while the dust filter prevents external impurities from entering the cooling system. In addition, the choice of flexible pipes and metal bellows balances sealing and durability, while allowing a certain degree of displacement to adapt to changes in the layout within the engine compartment.

[0025] During actual driving, when the vehicle is under high load conditions such as acceleration or hill climbing, the electronic control module 5 will further increase the turbine blade speed of the air supply booster 6 based on real-time data provided by the signal processing component 2, thereby increasing the intake air volume. This dynamic adjustment mechanism significantly improves the engine's power response speed and combustion efficiency. Under low load conditions, the turbine blade speed will be reduced accordingly to avoid unnecessary energy loss.

[0026] As can be seen from the above steps, this device effectively enhances engine performance through the synergistic effect of the power enhancement unit 1, signal processing component 2, mounting bracket 3, and cooling auxiliary mechanism 4. Specifically, the air supply booster device 6 ensures the sealing and durability of the intake system through the connection of flexible pipes and metal bellows; the magnetic sensor design of the signal processing component 2 enables it to efficiently acquire engine speed signals and convert analog signals into digital signals through a signal conversion module, facilitating real-time adjustments by the electronic control module 5; the adjustable clamping arm and level 10 of the mounting bracket 3 ensure stable installation of the device on different vehicle models; and the cooling auxiliary mechanism 4 ensures the reliability of the device under high-load operation through an intelligent temperature control mechanism.

[0027] In summary, this device can significantly improve engine power performance by optimizing the intake system and real-time signal processing without altering the original vehicle structure, while simultaneously reducing construction costs and time consumption.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
