Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle component technology, and in particular to a high-position air intake and a vehicle having the same. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, the high-position air intake is usually connected to the damping pad through the mounting hole of the air intake body, and finally the damping pad is tightened with a nut. During the tightening process of the nut and the damping pad, when the friction between the damping pad and the mounting surface of the air intake body is less than the tightening torque of the nut, the tightening torque of the nut will act directly on the damping pad, causing the damping pad to twist and deform due to the torque, resulting in poor stability. At the same time, the elasticity of the damping pad is weakened, and the damping effect is reduced. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. Therefore, one objective of the present invention is to provide a high-position air intake duct that has advantages such as high stability and good vibration reduction.

[0004] Another objective of this invention is to provide a vehicle having the aforementioned high-position air intake.

[0005] A high-mounted air intake duct according to a first aspect of the present invention includes: an air intake duct body adapted to be installed on one side of a cab; a shock-absorbing pad disposed between the air intake duct body and the cab; a fastening bolt connected to the end face of the shock-absorbing pad facing the cab and adapted to be installed with the cab; a notched bolt connected to the end face of the shock-absorbing pad facing the air intake duct body and adapted to be installed with the air intake duct body, the outer peripheral surface of the notched bolt having a first notched surface; and an anti-rotation clamping plate sleeved on the notched bolt and having a second notched surface that anti-rotates with the first notched surface.

[0006] According to the high-position air intake duct of this utility model embodiment, when fixing the air intake duct body to the shock absorber pad, an anti-rotation clamp is first placed on the cut bolt. Since the first and second cut surfaces have the same shape and cooperate with each other, the anti-rotation clamp fixes the cut bolt. When the cut bolt is subjected to torsional force applied by an external force such as an air gun, it rotates. The tightening force generated during the tightening process does not directly act on the shock absorber pad, ensuring that the relative position between them remains unchanged. This prevents the shock absorber pad from twisting and deforming during the tightening process of the high-position air intake duct, improving the stability of the shock absorber pad. Simultaneously, the increased stability of the shock absorber pad allows it to better absorb vibrations generated during vehicle operation, reducing the impact of these vibrations on the air intake duct body and improving the shock absorption effect during the use of the high-position air intake duct.

[0007] Therefore, the high-position air intake according to the embodiment of this utility model has the advantages of high stability and good shock absorption.

[0008] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the shock-absorbing pad includes: a soft pad; a first end plate, the first end plate being connected to the side end face of the soft pad facing the cab, and the fastening bolt being fixedly connected to the first end plate; and a second end plate, the second end plate being connected to the side end face of the soft pad facing the air intake body, and the notched bolt being fixedly connected to the second end plate.

[0009] According to some embodiments of the present invention, both the first end plate and the second end plate are constructed as metal parts, the soft pad is a rubber part, the first end plate and the soft pad are vulcanized and bonded, and the second end plate and the soft pad are vulcanized and bonded.

[0010] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the side of the soft pad facing the first end plate is provided with a first receiving groove, and one end of the fastening bolt is provided with a first nut, the first nut being received in the first receiving groove and abutting against the first end plate; the side of the soft pad facing the second end plate is provided with a second receiving groove, and one end of the cut bolt is provided with a second nut, the second nut being received in the second receiving groove and abutting against the second end plate.

[0011] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the soft pad is constructed in a columnar shape, and the outer contours of the cross-sections of the first end plate and the second end plate are both constructed in a polygonal shape, and the outer contours of the first end plate and the second end plate are both located radially outside the outer periphery of the soft pad.

[0012] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the diameter of the pad at the middle along the axial direction is smaller than the diameter of the pad at both ends along the axial direction.

[0013] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the high-position air intake duct further includes a flexible gasket, which is disposed between the first end plate and the cab.

[0014] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the outer contour of the flexible gasket coincides with the outer contour of the first end plate, and the inner circumferential surface of the flexible gasket is radially spaced from the fastening bolt.

[0015] According to some embodiments of this utility model, a high-position air intake duct is characterized in that it further includes: an air intake duct mounting nut, the air intake duct mounting nut being screwed onto the cut bolt, the air intake duct mounting nut and the shock-absorbing pad being located on both sides of the thickness direction of the air intake duct; wherein, the outer contour of the flexible pad is located radially outside the outer contour of the outer contour of the air intake duct mounting nut.

[0033] In the description of this utility model, "multiple" means two or more, and "several" means one or more.

[0034] The high-position air intake duct 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the high-position air intake duct 1 according to the first aspect embodiment of the present utility model includes an air intake duct body 100, a shock-absorbing pad 200, a fastening bolt 300, a notched bolt 400, and an anti-rotation clamping plate 500.

[0036] The air intake duct body 100 is adapted to be installed on one side of the cab. A shock absorber 200 is disposed between the air intake duct body 100 and the cab. A fastening bolt 300 is connected to the end face of the shock absorber 200 facing the cab and is adapted to be installed with the cab. A notched bolt 400 is connected to the end face of the shock absorber 200 facing the air intake duct body 100 and is adapted to be installed with the air intake duct body 100; the outer peripheral surface of the notched bolt 400 has a first notched surface 401. An anti-rotation clamp 500 is sleeved on the notched bolt 400 and has a second notched surface 501 that engages with the first notched surface 401 to prevent rotation.

[0037] For example, during the installation of the high-position air intake 1, the shock absorber 200 can be connected to the cab by threads first, then the mounting holes of the air intake body 100 and the cut bolts 400 can be fitted, then the anti-rotation clamp 500 can be fitted into the cut bolts 400 and tightly attached to the mounting surface of the air intake body 100. After that, the air intake body 100 and the shock absorber 200 can be fixedly connected by an air gun and an auxiliary installation tool. The auxiliary installation tool can be an anti-rotation head or other tools.

[0038] According to the embodiment of this utility model, when the high-position air intake duct 1 is fixedly connected between the air intake duct body 100 and the shock absorber 200, the anti-rotation clamp 500 is first fitted onto the cut bolt 400. Since the first cut surface 401 and the second cut surface 501 have the same shape and cooperate with each other, the anti-rotation clamp 500 fixes the cut bolt 400. When the cut bolt 400 is subjected to the torsional force applied by external forces such as an air gun, it rotates. The tightening force generated during the tightening process will not directly act on the shock absorber 200, ensuring that the relative position between them remains unchanged. This prevents the shock absorber 200 from twisting and deforming during the tightening of the high-position air intake duct 1, thus improving the stability of the shock absorber 200. At the same time, the increased stability of the shock absorber 200 allows it to better absorb vibrations generated during vehicle operation, reducing the impact of these vibrations on the air intake duct body 100 and improving the shock absorption effect of the high-position air intake duct 1 during use.

[0039] Therefore, the high-position air intake duct 1 according to the embodiment of this utility model has the advantages of high stability and good shock absorption effect.

[0040] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the shock absorber 200 includes a soft pad 210, a first end plate 220, and a second end plate 230. The first end plate 220 is connected to the side of the soft pad 210 facing the cab, and a fastening bolt 300 is fixedly connected to the first end plate 220. The second end plate 230 is connected to the side of the soft pad 210 facing the air intake body 100, and a notched bolt 400 is fixedly connected to the second end plate 230.

[0041] The use of cushion 210 can effectively absorb and reduce vibrations and impacts transmitted through the intake manifold 100, reduce transmission to the cab, thereby improving the driving experience and protecting other components inside the vehicle.

[0042] The arrangement of the first end plate 220 and the second end plate 230 enables the shock absorber 200 to provide a solid connection at both ends of the pad 210. When the fastening bolts 300 and the notched bolts 400 are fastened to the intake manifold body 100 and the cab through the first end plate 220 and the second end plate 230, the pad can be effectively prevented from deforming due to the applied torque, thus avoiding the deformation problem of the shock absorber 200 caused by uneven force.

[0043] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the first end plate 220 and the second end plate 230 are both constructed as metal parts, and the soft pad 210 is a rubber part. The first end plate 220 and the soft pad 210 are vulcanized and bonded together, and the second end plate 230 and the soft pad 210 are vulcanized and bonded together.

[0044] The rubber-material cushion 210 effectively absorbs and dampens vibrations during vehicle operation, reducing the transmission of noise and vibration generated by the intake manifold 100 to the cab, thereby improving driving comfort and overall vehicle performance. The first end plate 220 and the second end plate 230 are both metal parts, vulcanized and bonded to the cushion 210 to form a single unit, making the overall structure more robust. The combination of metal and rubber components provides the shock absorber 200 with good strength and durability, ensuring its reliability during long-term use.

[0045] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the side of the pad 210 facing the first end plate 220 has a first receiving groove 211, and one end of the fastening bolt 300 has a first nut 301, which is received in the first receiving groove 211 and abuts against the first end plate 220. The side of the pad 210 facing the second end plate 230 has a second receiving groove 212, and one end of the cut-out bolt 400 has a second nut 402, which is received in the second receiving groove 212 and abuts against the second end plate 230.

[0046] When the high-position air intake 1 is installed, the fastening bolts 300 and the notched bolts 400 are tightened respectively. During the tightening process, the first receiving groove 211 and the second receiving groove 212 can buffer the first nut 301 and the second nut 402, which can reduce the direct impact on the soft pad 210 caused by tightening and improve the shock absorption capacity of the entire high-position air intake 1.

[0047] The first nut 301 and the second nut 402 are positioned within the first receiving groove 211 and the second receiving groove 212, respectively, to prevent them from loosening during vibration or movement. This stable fixing method ensures the firmness of the connection part of the shock-absorbing pad 200, prevents the displacement or failure of the fastening bolt 300 and the notched bolt 400, and ensures the overall stability of the high-position air intake duct 1.

[0048] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the cushion 210 is constructed in a columnar shape, and the outer contours of the cross-sections of the first end plate 220 and the second end plate 230 are both constructed in polygonal shapes. The outer contours of the first end plate 220 and the second end plate 230 are both located radially outside the outer periphery of the cushion 210. The first end plate 220 and the second end plate 220 can both be constructed as regular hexagons, and the anti-rotation clamping plate 500 can also be constructed as a regular hexagon.

[0049] The polygonal first end plate 220 and second end plate 230 provide a larger contact area between the first end plate 220 and the second end plate 230 and the cushion 210, which helps to distribute the load and reduce stress concentration, thereby enhancing the stability and durability of the high-mounted air intake 1. When the air intake body 100 is subjected to vibration, the columnar cushion 210 can provide better shock absorption, thereby improving driving comfort.

[0050] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the diameter of the middle part of the pad 210 along the axial direction is smaller than the diameter of the two ends of the pad 210 along the axial direction.

[0051] The cushion 210 has a smaller diameter in the middle and a larger diameter at both ends, which can effectively reduce the overall weight of the shock absorber 200. While ensuring that the shock absorber 200 has sufficient cushioning force, it can also reduce the use of materials, thereby improving fuel economy and saving production costs.

[0052] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the high-position air intake duct 1 also includes a flexible gasket 600. The flexible gasket 600 is disposed between the first end plate 220 and the cab. The flexible gasket 600 can be constructed as a regular polygon with the first end plate 220, and the fastening bolts 300 pass through the flexible gasket 600 to fix it to the cab.

[0053] The outer surface of the first end plate 220 is vulcanized with a flexible gasket 600, which provides an effective waterproof seal when the shock absorber 200 contacts the rear panel of the cab, preventing moisture and debris from seeping in, protecting internal components, and extending their service life. At the same time, the vulcanized flexible gasket 600 effectively prevents scratches when the shock absorber 200 contacts the rear panel of the cab during rotation or movement, thus protecting the vehicle body paint and maintaining the vehicle's appearance.

[0054] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the outer contour of the flexible gasket 600 coincides with the outer contour of the first end plate 220, and the inner circumferential surface of the flexible gasket 600 is radially spaced from the fastening bolt 300.

[0055] The spacing between the inner circumferential surface of the flexible gasket 600 and the fastening bolt 300 can prevent the bolt from directly contacting the flexible gasket 600, reduce stress concentration during the installation and operation of the shock-absorbing pad 200, and help improve the durability and service life of the flexible gasket 600.

[0056] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1As shown, the high-position air intake duct 1 also includes an air intake duct mounting nut 700. The air intake duct mounting nut 700 is screwed onto the notched bolt 400, and the air intake duct mounting nut 700 and the shock-absorbing pad 200 are located on opposite sides of the thickness direction of the air intake duct. The outer contour of the flexible pad 600 is radially outside the outer contour of the air intake duct mounting nut 700.

[0057] For example, during the installation of the shock absorber 200, the lower end of the anti-rotation head 20 is engaged and locked with the anti-rotation clamping plate 500, while the upper middle part of the anti-rotation head 20 is held in place by hand. Then, the intake manifold mounting nut 700 is tightened with a pneumatic wrench to a fixed torque. The gripping force of the anti-rotation head 20 during the installation of the shock absorber 200 is transferred to the anti-rotation clamping plate 500, ensuring that the notched bolt 400 on one side of the shock absorber 200 remains fixed when the intake manifold mounting nut 700 is tightened with a pneumatic wrench. This prevents the soft pad 210 in the middle of the shock absorber 200 from tortuous deformation.

[0058] The anti-rotation head 20 has spaced notches on one side near the intake duct mounting nut 700, which allows for easy observation of the condition of the intake duct mounting nut 700 and the anti-rotation plate 500.
