Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate tuning without reducing a resonance effect by forming a plurality of holes on a bulkhead of an atmosphere of a muffler or the other volume, in the muffler having a resonance chamber which is branched from a vehicular intake duct and communicates with the intake duct inside. SOLUTION: A resonator 20 as a muffler is branched from a vehicular intake duct 10, and is provided with a resonance chamber 30 communicating with the intake duct inside, and a resonance pipe 40 communicating with the resonance chamber 30 and the intake duct 10. A plurality of holes 34 for turning a frequency for communicating the resonance chartier 30 and an atmosphere or a volume other than the resonance chamber 30 are formed on a wall of the resonance chamber 30. In the case where the holes 34 are formed on a bottom wall of the resonance chamber 30, at least one of the holes 34 is used for a drain hole 33. Since a resonance frequency of the resonator 20 is slid to a higher side in proportion to the number of the holes 34, tuning of the frequency is facilitated without change of a capacity and reduction of a resonance effect.

2. Description of the Related Art A case where a silencer conventionally used is a resonator having a resonance chamber therein will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 9 shows the resonator 1 which branches off from an intake duct upstream of a vehicle air cleaner (not shown) and communicates with the intake duct. The resonator 1 includes a box-shaped resonance chamber 2 and a resonance pipe 3 that communicates the suction chamber (not shown) with the resonance chamber 2. One drain hole 5 is provided in the bottom 4 of the resonance chamber 2. The drain hole 5 is for draining the moisture (rain, splashed water, etc.) in the intake air passing through the intake duct that has entered the resonance chamber 2. The resonator is made of resin, molded using a mold, mounted on an actual vehicle, tested, and manually tuned to have a predetermined frequency. Using a resonator whose frequency is tuned as a model, the mold is modified, and the resonator 1 actually mounted on the vehicle is formed. The tuning of the frequency is performed by the relational expression of the volume V of the resonance chamber 2, the length L of the resonance tube 3, the opening area S of the resonance tube 3, and the sound speed c. F = [c / 2π] {S / (LV)} 1 / 2 f: resonance frequency c: sound velocity S: resonance tube opening area L: resonance tube length V: resonance chamber volume, using the opening area S, resonance tube length L, resonance chamber volume V,
This is performed by changing the three elements. Also,
In general, in tuning the frequency, the resonance effect of the resonator 1 tends to decrease as the volume V of the resonance chamber decreases, and it is said that the volume V needs to be as large as possible at low frequencies. ing.

However, the above-mentioned conventional silencer has the following problems. Since the tuning portion has three elements of the volume V, the opening area S, and the length L of the resonance tube, and each of the three elements has a degree of freedom to change, the tuning man-hour is increased and tuning is difficult. When tuning is performed in a direction in which the volume V, the opening area S, and the length L of the resonance tube are reduced, a resonance effect (a silencing effect) is reduced. When tuning is performed such that the volume V, the opening area S, and the length L of the resonance tube are set in the enlargement direction, it is often difficult to mount the vehicle. If the volume V and the opening area S are changed at the time of tuning, the cost for correcting the mold is high. An object of the present invention is to provide a muffler that can easily perform tuning. Another object of the present invention is to provide a muffler that does not reduce the resonance effect even when tuning is performed and does not affect the mounting on a vehicle. It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a silencer that requires little modification of the mold for tuning.

In the silencer of the present invention, the volume of the resonance chamber,
To tune the frequency of the sound region to be reduced by providing holes without changing the opening area of the resonance tube and the length of the resonance tube, tuning only by changing the number of holes, the position of the holes, etc. Can be easily performed. In addition, even if the content of tuning is conventionally in the direction of reduction in the resonance chamber volume, the resonance tube opening area, and the resonance tube length, the present invention does not change the resonance chamber volume, the resonance tube opening area, and the resonance tube length without changing the resonance tube length. Tuning by number and position of holes does not reduce the resonance effect. Also, the resonance chamber volume,
Since the frequency is tuned by providing the holes without changing the opening area of the resonance tube and the length of the resonance tube, the resonance tube can be mounted on a vehicle without any problem without enlarging the resonance room or increasing the length of the resonance tube. Furthermore, since the frequency is tuned by providing the holes, it is only necessary to make a hole in the wall of the silencer, and the mold does not need to be modified, or only a small amount is required, and the cost is low.

On one wall 32 or two or more walls of the resonance chamber 30, there are formed a plurality of holes 34 for frequency tuning which communicate the resonance chamber 30 with the atmosphere or a volume other than the resonance chamber 30. If holes 34 are formed in the bottom wall of the resonance chamber 30, at least one of the holes 34 is also used for the drain hole 33. The drain hole 33 is for draining the water (rain, splashed water, etc.) in the intake air passing through the intake duct 10 that has entered the resonance chamber 30. If the hole 34 is not provided on the bottom wall of the resonance chamber 30, one drain hole 33 must be provided on the bottom wall of the resonance chamber 30.

The drain hole 33 and the hole 34 do not necessarily have to be in the same wall. The hole 34 may be formed in a portion other than the bottom wall 32 of the resonance chamber 30 or may be formed in the resonance tube 40. . The diameter and the number of the holes 34 are such that sound leaking from the holes 34 to the outside of the resonator 20 has no problem.
For example, when the hole 34 has a round shape, the diameter is 3 mm to 15 m.

When the hole 34 is formed in the resonance chamber bottom wall 32 in the same shape, the same diameter, and with a predetermined regularity,
In proportion to the number of holes 34 formed, the resonance frequency of the resonator 20 tends to shift higher. FIG. 3 shows that the hole 34 is formed at a predetermined position with a diameter of 5 mm and a diameter of 6 mm without changing the volume V of the resonance chamber 30, the length in the longitudinal direction and the opening area S of the resonance tube 20.
This shows the resonance effect when 18 or 18 pieces are formed (six pieces are shown by dotted lines in the figure, and 18 pieces are shown by dashed lines in the figure). The frequency is shifted to a higher side as compared with the case where no pattern is formed (solid line in the figure).

Here, an example of the resonator 20 from the state of the prototype (model) to the frequency tuning will be described. First, a mold that is considered appropriate from conventional experience is manufactured. Using the mold, a prototype (model) of the resonator is formed by, for example, resin injection molding (injection molding). A test is conducted by mounting the formed resonator model on an actual vehicle. Thereafter, when frequency tuning is required, holes 34 are formed in the resonator model as necessary, and the resonance frequency of the resonator of the model is made to correspond to the frequency to be silenced. Thereafter, the mold is modified to form a resonator similar to the resonator model. This correction is performed by driving a pin into a mold at a position where the hole 34 is to be formed. Using the modified mold, the resonator 20 whose frequency is tuned is formed. Alternatively, at the stage of forming a resonator model using a mold, a plurality of holes 34 are previously formed in the model, and as shown in FIGS.
By using a hole closing member 50 and a hole diameter adjusting member 51 made of resin such as rubber, which are separate from the above, the resonance frequency of the resonator model may be adjusted to the frequency to be eliminated.

Next, the operation will be described. When a resonator adapted to a predetermined engine and intake pipe length and a resonator adapted to another engine and intake pipe length have the same shape, the mold used when molding the resonator adapted to the predetermined engine and intake pipe length is used. By changing the number, position, shape, diameter, and the like of the holes 34, it can be used even in the case of a resonator that is compatible with another engine and intake pipe length. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the hole closing member 50 made of a resin such as rubber, which is separate from the resonator 20, can be used to change the direction of closing the hole 34 and to reduce the diameter of the hole 34. It is convenient to use the hole diameter adjusting member 51.

In the case where the resonator 20 capable of extinguishing 0 Hz) is tuned to the resonator 20 capable of extinguishing higher frequencies (about 120 to 140 Hz), the volume V has conventionally had to be reduced. Since the volume V need not be changed in the vessel, the frequency can be tuned without deteriorating the resonance effect. Further, the case where the muffler of the present invention is a box-shaped resonator 20 having the resonance tube 40 and the resonance chamber 30 has been described as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to the box-shaped resonator 20. It may be a cylindrical resonator (side branch) or an expansion chamber type resonator. In that case, the space in the side branch constitutes the resonance chamber,
The expansion chamber constitutes the resonance chamber.

According to the silencer of the present invention, the frequency can be reduced by providing a plurality of holes in the wall of the resonance chamber without changing the volume of the resonance chamber, the opening area of the resonance pipe, and the length of the resonance pipe. Since tuning is performed, tuning can be performed only by changing the number of holes, the position of the holes, and the like, and tuning is facilitated. Further, even when the tuning is performed in the conventional resonance chamber volume, resonance tube opening area, and reduction direction in the resonance tube length, the present invention does not change the resonance chamber volume, resonance tube opening area, and resonance tube length without changing the hole. Tuning by number and position of holes does not reduce the resonance effect.
Further, since the frequency is tuned by providing holes without changing the resonance chamber volume, the resonance tube opening area, and the resonance tube length, it can be mounted on a vehicle without any space problem. Furthermore, since tuning is performed by providing holes, the correction of the mold is only required to raise the pin that forms the hole in the silencer, and there is no need to rebuild the entire mold.
