Abstract:
A working machine includes an engine compartment, an engine hood, an internal combustion engine arranged in the engine compartment and an exhaust system, which extends from the engine out of the engine compartment via the engine hood. The exhaust system is provided with an air intake for admitting air from the engine compartment into the exhaust system and entraining the air together with the exhaust gases. The air intake includes an air baffle element, which leads the air into an essentially central area in an outlet duct, in which the exhaust gases are led out, in such a way that the air is entrained out of the engine compartment by the exhaust gases through an ejector effect which the exhaust gases exert on the air in the outlet duct.
Abstract:
A system and apparatus for evacuating air from an at least partially enclosed space around an internal combustion engine including an exhaust pipe for the flow of combustion products to atmosphere. The present system and apparatus includes a shaft and structure for mounting the shaft to the exhaust pipe in the exhaust path, and an impeller mountable for rotation on the shaft, the impeller including a first rotor having at least one vane or blade positioned in the exhaust path and oriented so as to be rotatably driven by the flow of combustion products, and a second rotor connected in rotatably driven communication to the first rotor, the second rotor including at least one vane or blade positioned and oriented for propelling air within the enclosure for evacuating the air therefrom.
Abstract:
This invention provides a device for accelerating an exhaust gas stream discharged from the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine the flow velocity of said gas stream having been lowered under the internal resistance by passing through the exhaust system ducts, machinery and tools such as catalyzers, mufflers interposed in the exhaust gas stream. The exhaust gas stream the flow velocity of which is accelerated through an acceleration portion or portions as much as possible to the flow velocity of the exhaust gas stream discharged immediately after it has been discharged from the combustion chamber is discharged into the air. As a result thereof, the exhausting efficiency can be improved and the exhausting characteristics are stabilized so that the rotational output is stabilized at the time of low-speed driving, and the decrease of the back pressure contributes at the time of high-speed driving so that it has the advantages that the so-called stretching of the rotation becomes better.
Abstract:
An air cooling mechanism for an internal combustion engine which has cooling jackets for cooling the internal center of the engine with air, an atmospheric air inlet to the cooling jackets and an air suction unit in the exhaust system for drawing air into the cooling jackets and exhausting air from the jackets and having a structure so that the air is forcibly drawn through the jackets for cooling the engine. The energy for drawing the cooling air is obtained by accelerating the exhaust gas stream and utilizes the intake energy responsive to the power demand of the engine and does not consume power from the engine.
Abstract:
A suction type turbo-supercharger (6) is driven by highly negative pressure suction air produced by a negative pressure generator (4) which accelerates the exhaust gas stream of an internal combustion engine (1), external air being drawn by the negative pressure into the suction turbine (61) of the turbo-supercharger (6) to rotate the supercharging turbine (62) coaxial and coupled with the suction turbine (61) to thereby supercharge the air fed into the combustion chamber of the engine. The air stream produced by the negative pressure drives the turbo-supercharger and may also be used to cool the engine, in which case the turbo-supercharger is driven by the air stream after cooling the engine.
Abstract:
An internal combustion engine having a retarder and a heat exchanger which re-cools the retarder oil, with cooling air being supplied to the heat exchanger during the braking operation. The internal combustion engine is provided with an exhaust conduit in which is arranged a blocking device for closing off the exhaust conduit during the braking operation, with the thus retained gas flow being utilized for conveying the cooling-air flow to the retarder oil heat exchanger.
