Abstract
Description
本発明は、排気管継手構造に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an exhaust pipe joint structure.
車両における排気管は複数箇所にてフランジ継手を介し接続されるようになっているのが通常であるが、例えば、トラック等ではマフラ直後のテールパイプ部分を車幅方向に曲げて「横出し」にしたものがあり、このような「横出し」の型式を採用した車両では、車体側部に適宜に取り付けられる架装物に応じマフラの軸心回りにテールパイプ部分を傾動して前記架装物との干渉を避けたいという要望がある。 Normally, exhaust pipes in vehicles are connected via flange joints at multiple locations. For example, in trucks, etc., the tail pipe part just after the muffler is bent in the vehicle width direction. In vehicles employing such a “side-out” type, the tail pipe portion is tilted around the axis of the muffler according to the body to be appropriately attached to the side of the vehicle body. There is a desire to avoid interference with things.
このため、従来においては、マフラ直後の継手箇所の締結状態を緩めることにより軸心回りの回転を許容して適宜な回転位置で再び締結し得るようにした差し込み式の継手構造、即ち、一方の端部に対し他方の端部をスリット等を入れて拡管した上で外嵌装着し且つその外周囲をクランプにより締結するようにした継手構造が一般的に採用されていた。 For this reason, in the past, a plug-in type joint structure in which one of the joints immediately after the muffler is loosened and allowed to rotate around the axis center and can be fastened again at an appropriate rotational position. A joint structure is generally employed in which the other end is expanded with a slit or the like and the outer end is attached and the outer periphery is fastened with a clamp.
ただし、斯かる差し込み式の継手構造では、そのガス漏れ防止性が満足のいくものではなかったため、近年においては、従来の差し込み式の継手構造よりガス漏れ防止性の良いV型クランプを利用した継手構造の採用が検討されている。 However, such a plug-type joint structure has not been satisfactory in its gas leakage prevention property, and in recent years, a joint using a V-type clamp having a better gas leakage prevention property than the conventional plug-in joint structure. Adoption of the structure is under consideration.
即ち、V型クランプを利用した継手構造とは、図3に示す如く、接続すべき一方の排気管1の端部(ここではマフラ直後の排気管を図示している)に全周に亘り山型断面を成す拡径部2を形成する一方、図4に示す如く、他方の排気管3の端部には末広がり状にテーパ部4を形成し、図5に示す如く、一方の排気管1の端部を他方の排気管3の端部に挿入して前記拡径部2の手前側の傾斜面2aに前記テーパ部4を沿わせ、これらテーパ部4及び拡径部2に該拡径部2の山型形状に対応したV字溝5を有するV型クランプ6を外嵌装着して締め付け、該V型クランプ6の楔作用により両排気管1,3を緊密に接続するようにしたものである。
That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the joint structure using the V-shaped clamp is a mountain over the entire circumference at the end of one
図6は前記V型クランプ6の詳細を補足的に説明するための全体図であり、ここに図示している例では、V字溝5を有する一対のリテーナ7を内周側に固着したバンド8の一端にクイッククラッチ9を介して接続したボルト部10に対し、前記バンド8の他端に装備したトラニオン11を遊嵌してナット12で締め込むことにより前記バンド8にテンションを付与せしめ、これにより排気管1,3の中心に向かって締め付け力を働かせるようになっている。
FIG. 6 is an overall view for supplementarily explaining details of the V-
尚、この種の排気管の継手構造に関連する先行技術文献情報としては例えば下記の特許文献1等がある。
しかしながら、斯かるV型クランプ6を利用した従来の継手構造では、一方の排気管1の端部における拡径部2の内周側に窪み部13(図5参照)ができてしまうので、排気管1から排気管3へ流れる排出ガス14が前記窪み部13を通過する際に気流渦15(図5参照)を生じ、この気流渦15を要因として車両の全負荷加速時等に気流騒音が発生するという問題があった。
However, in the conventional joint structure using such a V-
本発明は上述の実情に鑑みてなしたもので、気流渦の発生を防止して気流騒音の大幅な低減化を図り得るようにした排気管継手構造を提供することを目的としている。 The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide an exhaust pipe joint structure capable of preventing generation of airflow vortices and greatly reducing airflow noise.
本発明は、一方の排気管の端部に全周に亘り山型断面を成す拡径部を形成すると共に、他方の排気管の端部には末広がり状にテーパ部を形成し、一方の排気管の端部を他方の排気管の端部に挿入して前記拡径部の手前側の傾斜面に前記テーパ部を沿わせ、これらテーパ部及び拡径部に該拡径部の山型形状に対応したV字溝を有するV型クランプを外嵌装着して締め付け、該V型クランプの楔作用により両排気管を緊密に接続した排気管継手構造であって、一方の排気管の端部に前記拡径部内周側の窪み部を被覆し得るようインナーパイプを内嵌装着したことを特徴とするものである。 In the present invention, an enlarged diameter portion having a mountain-shaped cross section is formed at the end of one exhaust pipe, and a tapered portion is formed at the end of the other exhaust pipe so as to be widened toward the end. Insert the end of the pipe into the end of the other exhaust pipe, and place the tapered portion along the inclined surface on the near side of the enlarged diameter portion, and the tapered shape of the enlarged diameter portion on the tapered portion and the enlarged diameter portion An exhaust pipe joint structure in which a V-type clamp having a V-shaped groove corresponding to the above is fitted and tightened, and both exhaust pipes are tightly connected by the wedge action of the V-type clamp, and the end of one exhaust pipe Further, the inner pipe is fitted and attached so as to cover the hollow portion on the inner peripheral side of the enlarged diameter portion.
而して、このようにすれば、インナーパイプで拡径部の内周側の窪み部が被覆されることにより、一方の排気管の端部における内周面がインナーパイプを介し窪みなく滑らかに連続するものとなり、ここを流れる排出ガスが一方の排気管の内周面に沿い剥離なく流れて整流化されるので、従来の如き気流渦が発生しなくなって、該気流渦を要因とする気流騒音が大幅に低減されることになる。 In this way, the inner pipe covers the inner-side depression of the enlarged diameter portion with the inner pipe, so that the inner circumferential surface at the end of one exhaust pipe can be smooth without depression through the inner pipe. Since the exhaust gas flowing through this flow is rectified by flowing along the inner peripheral surface of one of the exhaust pipes without being separated, the air flow vortex is no longer generated and the air flow caused by the air flow vortex Noise will be greatly reduced.
上記した本発明の排気管継手構造によれば、インナーパイプで拡径部の内周側の窪み部を被覆したことにより、該窪み部における気流渦の発生を確実に防止して排出ガスの流れの整流化を図ることができるので、気流渦を要因とする気流騒音を従来より大幅に低減することができるという優れた効果を奏し得る。 According to the above-described exhaust pipe joint structure of the present invention, the inner pipe covers the hollow portion on the inner peripheral side of the enlarged diameter portion, thereby reliably preventing the generation of airflow vortices in the hollow portion and the flow of exhaust gas. Therefore, the air flow noise caused by the air flow vortex can be greatly reduced as compared with the prior art.
以下本発明の実施の形態を図面を参照しつつ説明する。 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
図1及び図2は本発明を実施する形態の一例を示すもので、図3〜図6と同一の符号を付した部分は同一物を表わしている。 1 and 2 show an example of an embodiment for carrying out the present invention, and portions denoted by the same reference numerals as those in FIGS. 3 to 6 represent the same items.
図1に示す如く、本形態例においては、前述した図3〜図6と略同様のV型クランプ6を利用した継手構造に関し、一方の排気管1の端部に、前記拡径部2の内周側に形成される窪み部13を被覆し得るようにインナーパイプ16を内嵌装着したものとなっている。
As shown in FIG. 1, in this embodiment, a joint structure using a V-
而して、このように一方の排気管1の端部にインナーパイプ16を内嵌装着しておけば、インナーパイプ16で拡径部2の内周側の窪み部13が被覆されることにより、一方の排気管1の端部における内周面が前記インナーパイプ16を介し窪みなく滑らかに連続するものとなり、ここを流れる排出ガス14が排気管1の内周面に沿い剥離なく流れて整流化されるので、従来の如き気流渦が発生しなくなって、該気流渦を要因とする気流騒音が大幅に低減されることになる。
Thus, if the
事実、本発明者らによる検証実験によれば、図2にグラフで示す通り、インナーパイプ16が有る場合と無い場合とを比較した場合に、人間の聴力で最も感度が高い領域である約2.5〜3.0KHzの周波数帯で非常に効果的な音圧レベルの低下が確認された。
In fact, according to a verification experiment by the present inventors, as shown by a graph in FIG. 2, when comparing the case where the
従って、上記形態例によれば、インナーパイプ16で拡径部2の内周側の窪み部13を被覆したことにより、該窪み部13における気流渦の発生を確実に防止して排出ガス14の流れの整流化を図ることができるので、気流渦を要因とする気流騒音を従来より大幅に低減することができる。
Therefore, according to the embodiment described above, the
尚、本発明の排気管継手構造は、上述の形態例にのみ限定されるものではなく、必ずしもマフラ直後のテールパイプ部分における継手構造に限定されないこと、その他、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲内において種々変更を加え得ることは勿論である。 Note that the exhaust pipe joint structure of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and is not necessarily limited to the joint structure in the tail pipe portion immediately after the muffler, and within the scope not departing from the gist of the present invention. Of course, various changes can be made.
