DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0030] Exhaust gas discharged from an engine enters a post-treatment device through an air intake port, is processed by a DOC catalyst, a DPF catalyst, a urea injection and mixing unit, and an SCR catalyst in sequence, and is finally discharged from the post-treatment device.

[0031] FIGS. 1 to 3 show schematic structural views of an SCR system urea mixer according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the SCR system urea mixer includes an outer pipe and an inner pipe disposed in the outer pipe. The outer pipe includes an intake air cone pipe 11 and an intake air straight pipe 12 connected with the intake air cone pipe 11, the inner pipe includes an intake air rectifying pipe 21 and a porous pipe 22, the porous pipe 22 is sleeved inside the intake air rectifying pipe 21, and the intake air rectifying pipe 21 is provided with airflow rotating blades 211 configured to rotate exhaust gas entering the intake air cone pipe 11.

[0032] The SCR system urea mixer is provided at the air intake port thereof with a urea nozzle installation plate 3. The urea nozzle installation plate 3 is installed at an inlet of the intake air rectifying pipe 21, and the urea nozzle installation plate 3 is provided with an installation hole matching a urea nozzle which injects urea into the mixer via the installation hole so that the urea is mixed with the exhaust gas injected into the mixer.

[0033] A diameter of the intake air cone pipe 11 gradually decreases in an inflow direction of airflow. The intake air cone pipe 11 and the intake air straight pipe 12 are designed to have a reduced diameter and a smooth transition therebetween. A length of the inner porous pipe 22 extends to a middle position of the intake air straight pipe 12, so that the airflow can still pass through the inner porous pipe 22 for rotation after flowing through the blade structure of the intake air rectifying pipe 21, and the flow rate of the gas will not decrease rapidly, thereby preventing urea crystallization in the intake air straight pipe 12.

[0034] The number of pores, the diameter of pores and the arrangement of pores in the porous pipe 22 may be adjusted. In one embodiment, the diameter of pores near the intake air cone pipe 11 is larger, and the diameter of pores near the intake air straight pipe 12 is smaller, so that the urea and the airflow can be fully mixed at the intake air cone pipe 11 under the action of the airflow rotating blades 211.

[0035] In addition, outer portions of the mixer intake air cone pipe 11 and the intake air straight pipe 12 are each provided with a heat insulation shield to wrap the outer pipe so as to prevent the airflow from exchanging heat with an external airflow after entering the mixer, lowering the temperature of the exhaust gas, affecting evaporation and atomization of urea solution, and causing urea crystallization. In one embodiment, the heat insulation shield 4 is heat insulation cotton.

[0036] The outside of the intake air cone pipe 11 is wrapped with a first heat insulation shield 41, and the outside of the intake air straight pipe 12 is wrapped with a second heat insulation shield 42. In a specific embodiment, the first heat insulation shield 41 and the second heat insulation shield 42 may be integrally wrapped around the outer pipe, or may be wrapped around the intake air cone pipe 11 and the intake air straight pipe 12 respectively, which is not specifically limited herein.

[0037] In order to prevent the urea from crystallizing in the intake air cone pipe 11, a heat insulation layer 5 is also provided in the intake air cone pipe 11.

[0038] Installation angles of the airflow rotating blades 211 are all acute angles, that is, the airflow rotating blades 211 are distributed radially on the outside of the intake air rectifying pipe 21, so that the incoming airflow rotates at a high speed and forms a swirl flow.

[0039] The specific working principle of the present disclosure is as follows:

[0040] The engine exhaust gas enters the mixer through the intake air rectifying pipe 21, and the exhaust gas rotates at a high speed in the intake air cone pipe 11 under the dual action of the intake air rectifying pipe 21 and the inner porous pipe 22, so that the urea solution ejected from the urea nozzle is sufficiently mixed with the exhaust gas. The airflow further enters the intake air straight pipe 12 through the inner porous pipe 22. Under the action of the inner porous pipe 22, the airflow continues to rotate and mix in the intake air straight pipe 12, and finally flows out of the mixer through the intake air straight pipe 12.

[0041] Under the dual action of the intake air rectifying pipe 21 and the inner porous pipe 22, the airflow generates strong disturbance when it flows through the airflow rotating blades 211, which wraps and takes away the urea solution ejected from the urea nozzle. Under the action of the airflow rotating at a high speed, the urea solution is rapidly evaporated and atomized, the contact of the urea solution with an inner wall of the intake air cone pipe 11 is reduced, and urea crystallization is avoided.

[0042] In a specific embodiment, the SCR system mixer of the present disclosure can realize the modularization of the structure, may be applied to engines with different displacements, and has strong versatility. According to the operating conditions of the engine, a reasonable distribution of air flow can be achieved by adjusting the blade angle, length and number of the airflow rotating blades 211 on the intake air rectifying pipe 21; and by adjusting the number, diameter and arrangement of pores in the inner porous pipe 22, a reasonable match with the engine is achieved.

[0043] The urea mixer of the present disclosure can be applied to SCR systems with different structures, and has strong versatility. For example, it can be applied to different SCR systems such as a box-type SCR system, an S-type SCR system and a U-type SCR system.

[0044] In addition, the SCR system mixer of the present disclosure has no complicated connection and installation structures, is convenient to install, and has high reliability.

[0045] The present disclosure also provides an SCR system having the above SCR system urea mixer installed thereon.

[0046] The SCR system urea mixer provided by the present disclosure enables the urea solution to be fully mixed with the engine exhaust gas. When the airflow enters the SCR catalyst through the mixer, the distribution of NH.sub.3 on a front end face of the SCR catalyst is more uniform, thus increasing the utilization rate of the SCR catalyst and improving the NO.sub.x conversion efficiency of the engine exhaust gas.

[0047] Described above are only specific preferred embodiments of the present disclosure, but the scope of protection of the present disclosure is not limited to this. Any change or replacement that can be easily contemplated by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present disclosure should be covered within the scope of protection of the present disclosure. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present disclosure shall be accorded with the scope of the claims.
