[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides a gas preheating device for a gas generator set: It includes an intake pipe 1, with a groove 2 fixedly connected to the end of the intake pipe 1. A U-shaped plate 17 is slidably connected inside the groove 2, and a filter plate 18 is slidably connected inside the U-shaped plate 17. A sealing plate 7 is fixedly connected to the outside of the U-shaped plate 17, and the sealing plate 7 is slidably connected to the outside of the groove 2. A countersunk hole 28 penetrates the inner side of the sealing plate 7, and a fixing member is rotatably fitted inside the countersunk hole 28. The fixing member is threadedly connected to the groove 2. A connector 3 is fixedly connected to the right side of the groove 2, and an outer pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the right side of the connector 3. An inner pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the inside of the outer pipe 5. The inner tube 10 is equipped with a heating element. The end of the outer tube 5 is fixedly connected to the air outlet pipe 6. The inner wall of the U-shaped plate 17 has slots 19 on both sides. The slots 19 are slidably connected to the slots 19. The slots 20 are fixedly connected to the filter plate 18. The outer corner of the groove 2 has blind holes 25. The blind holes 25 are slidably connected to the blind holes 25. The guide rods 26 are fixedly connected to the sealing plate 7. The inner wall of the blind holes 25 has two guide grooves 22 symmetrically opened. The guide blocks 24 are slidably connected to the guide grooves 22. The guide blocks 24 are fixedly connected to the guide rods 26. The inner wall of the guide grooves 22 and the guide blocks 24 are fixed together with a spring 23.

[0025] The fastener includes a connecting rod 27 passing through the countersunk hole 28. One end of the connecting rod 27 is fixedly connected to a screw block 8, and the other end is fixedly connected to a threaded block 30. A threaded groove 29 is opened on the outside of the groove body 2. The threaded block 30 is threadedly connected to the threaded groove 29. A rubber sheet is fixedly connected to the inner side of the sealing plate 7. The rubber sheet passes through the through hole and the through groove. The rubber sheet is fixedly sleeved on the outer edge of the U-shaped plate 17, the guide rod 26, and the connecting rod 27 through the through groove and the through hole.

[0026] By setting a detachable U-shaped filter plate 18 at the end of the intake pipe 1, impurities in the gas are effectively intercepted, preventing impurities from accumulating and affecting the heat conduction performance of the preheating pipe. The filter plate 18 is slidably installed through the slot 19 and the block 20. With the guide structure of the sealing plate 7, it can be quickly pulled out for cleaning or replacement without disassembling the pipe, making maintenance simple. The sealing plate 7 achieves dynamic compression sealing through the spring 23, guide rod 26 and rubber sheet to prevent gas leakage. The threaded connection of the fastener further strengthens the stability of the filter structure.

[0027] The heating element includes a spiral heating wire 14 disposed inside the inner tube 10. A conical head 16 and a plug 9 are threaded to both ends of the inner tube 10, respectively. The conical head 16 is located on one side of the air intake pipe 1. Two support rods 15 are symmetrically fixed to both ends of the inner tube 10. The support rods 15 are fixed to the inner wall of the outer tube 5. Spiral fins 13 are fixedly connected to the outside of the inner tube 10. A cavity 12 is provided inside the outer tube 5. Multiple vertically symmetrical baffles 21 are fixedly connected inside the cavity 12. The baffles 21 are obliquely distributed inside the cavity 12. An exhaust gas inlet 4 and an exhaust gas outlet 11 are fixedly connected to the outside of the outer tube 5, and both the exhaust gas inlet 4 and the exhaust gas outlet 11 are connected to the cavity 12. The spiral heating wire 14 is coated with an insulating ceramic coating. The outer tube 5 and the inner tube 10 are made of ceramic fiber composite material and copper-aluminum alloy, respectively.

[0028] The gas passes through the spiral fins 13 channel between the outer tube 5 and the inner tube 10, fully absorbing the direct heat from the electric heating wire in the inner tube 10. At the same time, the exhaust heat from the engine introduced by the exhaust gas inlet 4 is used to preheat the gas in the cavity 12, improving thermal efficiency. The obliquely symmetrically distributed baffles 21 extend the gas flow path, enhance the heat exchange effect, and ensure that the gas temperature rises uniformly. The spiral heating wire 14 is built into the inner tube 10, and both ends are sealed by the conical head 16 and the plug 9 to avoid direct contact with the gas.

[0029] Working principle: The gas enters the tank 2 from the intake pipe 1. After the U-shaped filter plate 18 intercepts impurities, it flows into the spiral fin 13 channel between the outer pipe 5 and the inner pipe 10 through the connector 3. After the spiral heating wire 14 is energized, it directly heats the wall of the inner pipe 10. The heat is conducted to the gas through the surface of the inner pipe 10 and the spiral fin 13. The engine exhaust gas is injected into the cavity 12 from the exhaust gas inlet 4. After indirect heat exchange with the gas, it is discharged from the exhaust gas outlet 11 to realize the utilization of waste heat. When the gas flows along the cavity 12, it is guided by the baffle 21 to form turbulence, which fully absorbs the heat of the electric heating wire in the inner pipe 10 and the waste heat of the exhaust gas. Finally, it is output to the generator set from the exhaust pipe 6.

[0030] When the filter plate 18 needs cleaning, the rotating block 8 is rotated. The rotating block 8 drives the threaded block 30 to rotate via the connecting rod 27, causing the threaded block 30 to unscrew from the threaded groove 29 and retract into the countersunk hole 28. Then, the rotating block 8 pulls the sealing plate 7 outward, separating the sealing plate 7 from the inlet end of the tank 2. At the same time, the guide rod 26 is pulled out from the blind hole 25, and the guide block 24 moves within the guide groove 22, simultaneously compressing the spring 23. This causes the spring 23 to compress, thereby causing the U-shaped plate 17, along with the filter plate 18, to exit the tank. Pull out 2, then remove the filter plate 18 upward from the U-shaped plate 17 for cleaning. After cleaning, connect the filter plate 18 to the U-shaped plate 17 through the slot 19 and the block 20. Then release the screw block 8, and the spring 23 will return to the original position, allowing the U-shaped plate 17 and the filter plate 18 to return to the tank 2. The sealing plate 7 will fit tightly against the inlet end of the tank 2 to seal the tank 2. Then rotate the screw block 8, which will drive the threaded block 30 to rotate through the connecting rod 27, so that the threaded block 30 is screwed into the threaded groove 29.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
