Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of generator equipment technology, and specifically to a noise reduction component for a generator. Background Technology
[0002] When the internal combustion engine (diesel / gasoline) of a generator is working, the high-temperature, high-pressure exhaust gas is discharged at high speed, which will generate strong pulse noise (up to 100-120 decibels), equivalent to the noise level of a chainsaw or a rock concert. The muffler reduces the noise to a safe range (usually targeting 65-85 decibels) through its internal sound-absorbing structure to meet environmental protection and occupational health standards. The generator muffler is a key component that balances "power output, environmental compliance, and personal safety".
[0003] In China, there are very clear and strict regulations regarding the orientation of generator exhaust outlets. The core of these regulations is the mandatory requirement in Clause 5.4.13 of GB50016: "The exhaust pipe opening should not face areas of personnel activity, equipment operation areas, pedestrian walkways, evacuation routes, areas that may cause fire hazards, or roof openings." Therefore, in existing technology, generator exhaust outlets are positioned as close to the ground as possible.
[0004] Chinese patent document CN222933723U discloses a generator support chassis assembly, including a chassis body. The chassis body includes a base plate, a front crossbeam, a rear crossbeam, a left crossbeam, and a right crossbeam. The chassis body contains a muffler, a battery, and a fuel tank. The battery is located between the muffler and the fuel tank. The muffler is positioned near the front crossbeam. The front crossbeam has a heat dissipation mesh and exhaust vents. A partition is provided between the muffler and the battery.
[0005] The existing technology has the following shortcomings: Although the exhaust port of the existing muffler is low, as long as the muffler is directly connected to the outside, the high temperature gas generated by the muffler will have more or less impact on the operator or plants and animals close to the ground. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the technical issues of environmental protection and safety in generators, this utility model provides a generator silencing component, a generator housing, and a muffler. The generator housing is equipped with a silencing chamber. The muffler's exhaust pipe is located within the silencing chamber, a vent is provided on one side of the silencing chamber, and a cooling device is provided between the vent and the exhaust pipe.
[0007] Preferably, the cooling device has a cooling pipe array in the middle, and the gaps between the cooling pipe arrays allow gas to pass through.
[0008] To facilitate circulating cooling, the cooling equipment includes an upper cooling chamber and a lower cooling chamber, and the cooling pipes connect the upper cooling chamber and the lower cooling chamber. The upper cooling chamber and the lower cooling chamber are also connected by a circulating pipe and a water pump.
[0009] To facilitate the installation of the muffler, the muffler is mounted inside the generator housing via a horizontal bracket. The horizontal bracket includes two transverse support rods with a gap between them. The muffler's air intake pipe runs around the bottom of the horizontal bracket and connects to the engine.
[0010] To avoid safety risks after the exhaust heating housing, an exhaust baffle is installed between the exhaust port of the exhaust pipe and the generator housing.
[0011] Preferably, the muffler is installed between the support plates on both sides of the horizontal bracket, the exhaust port of the exhaust pipe faces the extension of the support plate, and the gas discharged from the exhaust port is blocked by the extension.
[0012] To facilitate airflow guidance and spatial arrangement, the exhaust pipe is located on one side of the muffler, and the exhaust pipe has a C-shaped structure and is parallel to the cooling equipment.
[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. This utility model creates a semi-enclosed secondary noise reduction space by incorporating a cooling device within the muffler's exhaust pipe. The sound waves from the exhaust gas after the initial noise reduction by the muffler are further absorbed and attenuated by the shell within the anechoic chamber, and then released more smoothly to the outside through the ventilation mesh. This achieves more thorough and effective noise suppression, significantly reducing the final noise level emitted into the environment and better meeting environmental protection and occupational health standards. Simultaneously, the built-in exhaust system prevents high-temperature exhaust gas (and its noise) from directly impacting personnel or sensitive areas (such as ground vegetation and equipment) at close range.
[0015] 2. The temperature and velocity of the exhaust gas after passing through the anechoic chamber and cooling equipment and then being discharged through the vent mesh forcibly change the final injection direction of the high-temperature, high-speed exhaust gas, ensuring that the exhaust port will not directly face any personnel activity areas, equipment operation areas, pedestrian passages, evacuation routes, places that may cause fire hazards, or roof openings.
