Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of engine technology, specifically to an engine protection device. Background Technology
[0002] An engine is a device that converts some form of energy into mechanical energy, primarily used to generate power to drive other machinery. Based on the type of fuel used, engines can be classified as gasoline engines, diesel engines, and gas-fueled engines. Diesel engines, with their high compression ratio (typically 30%–50% higher than gasoline engines) and compression ignition, have higher combustion efficiency and can output strong torque at low speeds, making them suitable for heavy-duty and hill-climbing applications. They are widely used in construction machinery and other fields, such as excavators.
[0003] To facilitate heat exchange between the engine and the external environment, excavator bodies typically have grille baffles installed at the top and bottom of the installation compartment to allow contact with outside air. While this method can achieve heat exchange, the airflow is difficult to control, resulting in less than ideal heat exchange performance. Therefore, an engine protection device is proposed to address this problem. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0014] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0015] Please see Figure 1-10 This utility model provides a technical solution: an engine protection device, including an excavator body 1, an engine compartment 2 and an engine body 3. The engine compartment 2 is installed on the top of the excavator body 1, and the engine body 3 is installed inside the engine compartment 2. Both sides of the engine compartment 2 are provided with assembly reserved openings 15 for use with the engine body 3.
[0016] Furthermore, to facilitate stable heat dissipation, a cooling fan 4 is installed inside the engine compartment 2, and a ring cover 5 is rotatably installed on the top of the engine compartment 2. Several first main air intake filter holes 6 are opened on one side of the top of the ring cover 5, and several first secondary air intake filter holes 7 are opened on the other side of the top of the ring cover 5. Several air outlet holes 8 are opened at the bottom of the engine compartment 2.
[0017] Furthermore, to facilitate sealing the air intake direction during periods of inactivity, a sealing mechanism 9 is installed on the top of the engine compartment 2. The sealing mechanism 9 includes a sealing plate 901, which is rotatably mounted on the top of the ring cover 5. One side of the top of the sealing plate 901 has several second secondary air intake filters 902 that correspond to the first secondary air intake filter 7, and the other side of the top of the sealing plate 901 has several second main air intake filters 903 that correspond to the first main air intake filter 6. A servo motor 904 is fixedly connected to the top of the engine compartment 2 via a bracket. The output shaft of the motor 904 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 905 via a coupling, and one end of the rotating shaft 905 extends into the interior of the engine compartment 2. A first pulley 906 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 905. An annular groove 907 is provided on the outer surface of the rotary sealing plate 901. A first belt 908 is connected between the annular groove 907 and the first pulley 906. Several toothed limit blocks 909 are fixedly connected at equal intervals around the surface of the ring cover 5. A gear 910 that meshes with the toothed limit blocks 909 is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating shaft 905 that extends into the engine compartment 2.
[0018] Furthermore, to facilitate the sealing of the air outlet direction, a bottom sealing mechanism 10 is provided at the bottom of the engine compartment 2. The bottom sealing mechanism 10 includes an assembly slot 100. There are two assembly slots 100, which are respectively opened on both sides of the bottom of the engine compartment 2. Guide slots 101 are opened on the front and rear sides of the inner cavity of the assembly slot 100. Guide blocks 102 are slidably connected inside the guide slots 101. A bottom sealing plate 103, which is used in conjunction with the rotating shaft 905, is fixedly connected between the two guide blocks 102 on the same side. Several air guide holes 104 are opened on the top of the bottom sealing plate 103, and the air guide holes 104 are staggered with the air outlet 8.
[0019] Furthermore, to facilitate automatic linkage sealing of the air inlet and outlet, the surface of the engine compartment 2 is provided with an automatic sealing drive mechanism 11 that is used in conjunction with the rotary sealing mechanism 9 and the bottom sealing mechanism 10. The automatic sealing drive mechanism 11 includes a mounting frame 111, which is slidably disposed on the front side of the engine compartment 2. The bottom of the bottom sealing plate 103 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 112 via a bracket. The connecting rod 112 and the mounting frame 111 are rotatably connected to a connecting plate 113. A threaded rod 114 is rotatably disposed on the front side of the engine compartment 2. The surface of the threaded rod 114 and the surface of the rotating shaft 905 are both fixedly connected to a second pulley 115. A second belt 116 is connected between the two second pulleys 115. A threaded sleeve 117 is threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod 114. Pressing brackets 118 that are used in conjunction with the mounting frame 111 are fixedly connected to both sides of the threaded sleeve 117. A limiting groove 12 is provided on the front side of the engine compartment 2. A limiting slider 13 is slidably connected inside the limiting groove 12. The front side of the limiting slider 13 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the mounting frame 111. A return spring 14 is fixedly connected between the limiting groove 12 and the limiting slider 13. A sliding plate 16 is fixedly connected to the front side of the engine compartment 2. A sliding block 17 is slidably connected inside the sliding plate 16. The front side of the sliding block 17 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the threaded sleeve 117.
[0020] When cooling the engine body 3, the servo motor 904 is started. The servo motor 904 drives the rotating shaft 905 to rotate. The rotating shaft 905 drives the first pulley 906 and the gear 910 to rotate. The first pulley 906 rotates and engages with the annular groove 907 and the first belt 908 for transmission until the first belt 908 drives the rotary sealing plate 901 to rotate to ninety degrees. The gear 910 rotates and meshes with the tooth limit block 909, causing the annular cover 5 to finally rotate in the opposite direction to the rotary sealing plate 901 to ninety degrees. After the annular cover 5 and the rotary sealing plate 901 rotate in the opposite direction by ninety degrees, the first secondary air intake filter 7 in the annular cover 5 will overlap with the second secondary air intake filter 902 in the rotary sealing plate 901 to form an air intake passage. Correspondingly, the first main air intake filter 6 will overlap with the second main air intake filter 903 to form an air intake passage. When the servo motor 904 drives the rotating shaft 905 to rotate, the rotating shaft 905 synchronously drives the second pulley 115 to rotate. The second pulley 115 synchronously engages with the adjacent second pulley 115 and the second belt 116, causing the threaded rod 114 to rotate synchronously. The threaded rod 114 rotates and its surface threaded sleeve 117 descends. The threaded sleeve 117 drives the pressing frame 118 to descend. The descending pressing frame 118 will squeeze the mounting frame 111. The mounting frame 111 is forced to push the connecting plate 113 to expand the rotation angle. The connecting plate 113 pushes the connecting rod 112 and the bottom sealing plate 103 to move laterally through the rotation angle. The lateral movement of the bottom sealing plate 103 will cause the air guide hole 104 to overlap with the air outlet hole 8, forming an air outlet through hole. When the enclosure is idle, the servo motor 904 is reversed to cause the rotating shaft 905 to rotate in the opposite direction for a fixed number of turns. After the rotating shaft 905 rotates in reverse, the ring cover 5 and the rotary sealing plate 901 are reset to their original positions. That is, the first main air inlet filter 6 and the second auxiliary air inlet filter 902 are mutually blocked, and the first auxiliary air inlet filter 7 and the second main air inlet filter 903 are mutually blocked to complete the enclosure. When the servo motor 904 reverses, the threaded sleeve 117 rises and resets in succession. The rise of the threaded sleeve 117 drives the pressing frame 118 to rise. The pressing frame 118 is lifted and releases the pressure on the mounting frame 111. After the mounting frame 111 loses pressure, it is reset by the tension of the reset spring 14. The reset of the mounting frame 111 drags the connecting plate 113 to restore the original angle. The reset of the connecting plate 113 pulls the bottom sealing plate 103 to move laterally and reset, causing the air guide hole 104 on the surface of the bottom sealing plate 103 to continue to form a misaligned seal with the air outlet hole 8.
[0021] Although embodiments of the present invention 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 invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
