Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of explosion-proof engine technology for coal mines, specifically to an explosion-proof engine exhaust manifold cooling system resistant to thermal stress cracking. Background Technology
[0002] Exhaust manifold cooling in explosion-proof engines refers to a cooling technology applied to the exhaust manifold. The main purpose of this technology is to reduce the temperature of the exhaust manifold, thereby reducing heat buildup, improving safety, and preventing potential explosion risks.
[0003] Our subsidiary currently supplies approximately 50 Caterpillar explosion-proof engines to large coal mines around Inner Mongolia. About 30 of these engines' exhaust manifolds have been damaged due to thermal stress cracking, resulting in direct economic losses of approximately 240,000 yuan and indirect costs of other damaged parts and repairs of approximately 100,000 yuan. Furthermore, the downtime caused by the damaged exhaust manifolds has severely impacted the normal production of these coal mines. In light of these serious consequences, there is an urgent need to develop a thermal stress crack-resistant cooling system for the exhaust manifolds of explosion-proof engines. Therefore, this utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content

It should be noted that, within the existing space, the height and thickness of the exhaust manifold body 2 have been increased, allowing for more cooling water within the exhaust manifold body 2, thus better cooling the exhaust manifold body 2.

An additional water pipe is connected between the radiator's water tank and the built-in water pump on the explosion-proof engine body. The additional water pipe serves to continuously and adequately supply water to both the built-in and external water pumps on the explosion-proof engine body.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This explosion-proof engine exhaust manifold cooling system, which is resistant to thermal stress cracking, achieves thermal stress cracking resistance in the exhaust manifold through the configuration of the exhaust manifold body, internal water circulation component, external water circulation component, and air pipeline component.
