Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turbocharger technology, and in particular to a turbocharger impeller acceleration device. Background Technology

[0002] Older diesel engine power systems using turbochargers produce significant pollution, especially during engine startup. Remodeling the engine or selecting a new turbocharger is time-consuming and doesn't guarantee satisfactory results. Therefore, a common, economical, and quicker adjustment method involves introducing compressed air into the turbocharger impeller to rapidly increase the rotor speed, providing more air to the engine, improving combustion, and reducing black smoke during startup. In practice, some turbochargers are designed with impeller acceleration bleed air in mind, incorporating bleed air channels and structures. However, others lack this design and corresponding bleed air channels and structures. To address the latter, this paper presents a novel and flexible turbocharger impeller acceleration device. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a turbocharger impeller acceleration device to achieve turbocharger impeller bleed air acceleration.

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows: A turbocharger impeller acceleration device includes a front impeller casing and a rear impeller casing. Both the front and rear impeller casings have inner rings, which are sealed together. The rear impeller casing has an outer ring. Connecting flanges are correspondingly provided on the outer edges of the front and rear impeller casings. The connecting flanges on the front and rear impeller casings are fixed together by fasteners, making the front and rear impeller casings a single unit. A gas channel is formed between the outer ring of the rear impeller casing and the inner rings of the front and rear impeller casings. An air inlet for the gas channel is provided at the rear end of the rear impeller casing. A plurality of injection holes are provided at the front end of the front impeller casing, which are respectively connected to the gas channel and the inner hole of the front impeller casing.

[0005] Preferably, the inner side of the connecting flange on the front impeller casing and the rear impeller casing is provided with a stepped structure for positioning, and the axial end face of the stepped structure fits in place.

[0006] Preferably, the connecting flanges on the front impeller casing and the rear impeller casing are mounted on the turbocharger by fasteners, and the rear end of the rear impeller casing is provided with a flange, which is mounted on the turbocharger by fasteners.

[0007] Preferably, the air inlet is arranged axially or radially, and the shape of the air inlet is elliptical, circular or square, and the air inlet is equipped with a hexagonal tube connector.

[0008] Preferably, the injection holes are inclined and face the outer edge of the turbocharger impeller.

[0009] Preferably, the front impeller casing and the rear impeller casing are connected by a concave-convex structure and sealed by a sealing ring.

[0010] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: Under the suction of the turbocharger impeller, compressed air enters through the air inlet on the rear impeller casing, passes through the gas passage formed by the combination of the front and rear impeller casings, and is finally ejected through the injection hole, acting on the impeller near the outer diameter, using the kinetic energy of the compressed air to accelerate the rotor.

[0011] This structure is an independent complete set of structures that can be flexibly designed and adjusted according to turbochargers with different impeller sizes and spatial structures. It is easy to install and use, and provides a reference for turbocharger impeller bleed air acceleration. Attached Figure Description
