Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air filter technology, specifically to an air filter inlet pipe with a moisture-absorbing structure. Background Technology
[0002] As living standards improve, people have increasingly higher demands for car comfort. Simultaneously, with stricter noise standards for motor vehicles, these demands are also rising. Noise control is one of the effective ways to improve car comfort, and a significant portion of car noise originates from the air intake system.
[0003] Existing air filter intake pipes mostly use a simple ventilation structure, lacking dehumidification functionality. In high-humidity environments, moisture easily enters the filter element, causing blockage, reduced filtration efficiency, and even engine malfunction. Some devices rely on external drying devices, which are complex in structure, costly, and inconvenient to maintain. Intake pipes cannot achieve automatic moisture separation and adsorption, and the moisture-absorbing material is difficult to replace. To address these issues, we propose an air filter intake pipe with a moisture-absorbing structure. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an air filter inlet pipe with a moisture-absorbing structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an air filter inlet pipe with a moisture-absorbing structure, comprising a main structure, wherein the main structure includes an outlet pipe, a first connecting pipe and a second connecting pipe, wherein the first connecting pipe is installed on the right side below the outlet pipe and the second connecting pipe is installed on the left side below the outlet pipe;
[0006] An auxiliary structure includes a pipe connector, a pipe body, and a first stop. The outer side of the second connecting pipe and the left side of the first connecting pipe are connected to both sides of the pipe body via the pipe connector. A first stop is installed on the left side of the inner wall of the pipe body. A venting cylinder is provided on the right side of the first stop. The venting cylinder is located on the right side of the inside of the pipe body. A storage groove is provided on the inner side of the venting cylinder. A sealing cover is installed on the right side of the storage groove. A second stop is provided on the right side of the sealing cover. The second stop is located on the left side of the inner wall of the first connecting pipe.

Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0028] Example 1:
[0029] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution for an air filter inlet pipe with a moisture-absorbing structure: an air filter inlet pipe with a moisture-absorbing structure includes a main structure 1, the main structure 1 includes an outlet pipe 101, a first connecting pipe 102 and a second connecting pipe 103, the first connecting pipe 102 is installed on the right side below the outlet pipe 101, and the second connecting pipe 103 is installed on the left side below the outlet pipe 101;
[0030] Auxiliary structure 2 includes a pipe connector 201, a pipe body 202, and a first stop 203. The outer side of the second connecting pipe 103 and the left side of the first connecting pipe 102 are connected to both sides of the pipe body 202 through the pipe connector 201. The first stop 203 is installed on the left side of the inner wall of the pipe body 202. A ventilator 204 is provided on the right side of the first stop 203. The ventilator 204 is located on the right side of the inside of the pipe body 202. A storage tank 205 is provided on the inner side of the ventilator 204. The storage tank 205 is filled with replaceable moisture-absorbing material. A sealing cover 206 is installed on the right side of the storage tank 205. A second stop 207 is provided on the right side of the sealing cover 206. The second stop 207 is located on the left side of the inner wall of the first connecting pipe 102.
[0031] The vent pipe 101 is L-shaped and is integrated with the first connecting pipe 102 to separate moisture and dry air, thus preventing them from mixing.
[0032] The exhaust pipe 101 and the second connecting pipe 103 are integrated, and the interiors of the exhaust pipe 101, the second connecting pipe 103 and the first connecting pipe 102 are connected to achieve gas flow.
[0033] Example 2:
[0034] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model also provides another solution. Based on the first embodiment, the lower part of the second connecting pipe 103 corresponds to the left side of the pipe body 202, and the left side of the first connecting pipe 102 corresponds to the right side of the pipe body 202. The pipe body 202 is L-shaped and fixedly connected to the first stop block 203. The inner wall of the first stop block 203 is on the same horizontal line as the inner wall of the ventilator 204. The right side of the inside of the pipe body 202 corresponds to the ventilator 204. The ventilator 204 is placed inside the first connecting pipe 102, without increasing the volume of additional equipment, saving space. The ventilator 204 and the storage tank 205 are integrated. The storage tank and sealing cap are also integrated. For filling activated alumina, the right side of the storage tank 205 is snap-fitted to the sealing cap 206, allowing for quick replacement of activated alumina without disassembling the entire tube, thus reducing maintenance costs. The first connecting pipe 102 is fixedly connected to the second stop 207. The left side of the second stop 207 is on the same horizontal line as the left side of the first connecting pipe 102. The right wall of the sealing cap 206 and the right wall of the pipe body 202 are on the same horizontal line. A removable flow guide baffle is provided inside the first connecting pipe 102. The flow guide baffle extends backward from the middle of the first connecting pipe 102, and its end forms an air intake channel to the pipe body 202 with the inner wall of the first connecting pipe 102, which is used to intercept and guide part of the airflow into the auxiliary structure 2.
[0035] Working principle:
[0036] When humid air enters the first connecting pipe 102 from the outside, the airflow moves forward. When it encounters the guide baffle 208, the airflow path in the lower half of the pipe is physically blocked because the baffle obstructs part of the airflow's direct passage. The airflow is forced to change direction and enters the pipe body 202 of the auxiliary structure 2 through the only channel left below the guide baffle 208. This diverted humid air then flows through the ventilation cylinder 204 and comes into full contact with the moisture-absorbing material such as activated alumina filled in the storage tank 205, where the moisture in the air is efficiently adsorbed. The dried air flows out from the other end of the pipe body 202 through the second connecting pipe 103 and finally merges into the outlet pipe 101. The unobstructed upper airflow in the first connecting pipe 102 directly crosses the upper edge of the guide baffle 208 and mixes with the dried airflow from the auxiliary structure 2 in the outlet pipe 101 before being sent to the air filter. This forced diversion and re-merging method achieves efficient and reliable dehumidification of the intake air.
[0037] Although embodiments of the present utility have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present utility, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
