Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a silencer, and more particularly to an improvement of a silencer having a fixing bracket. 2. Description of the Related Art Generally, in a vehicle, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, a silencer 1 of a predetermined container is continuously connected to a duct D of an intake system (or an exhaust system) of an engine E via a branch pipe Da. The silencer 1 is formed into a hollow box shape by blow molding with a synthetic resin such as nylon, polypropylene, or polyethylene, and is provided on one end surface of the box-shaped main body 1a. Is provided with a neck pipe 1b and is connected to a branch pipe Da of the duct D by means of bonding, welding, or a tightening band. The other end face has a triangular vertical rib 2a having a height decreasing from the base toward the tip on both sides. A bracket 2 having a concave shape is protruded, and is fixed to the vehicle body F by a stopper T so that the bracket 2 does not swing. The muffler 1 is formed with a box-shaped groove Ma for forming a main body, a semi-circular groove Mb for forming a neck pipe, and a concave groove Mc for forming a bracket, as shown in FIG. A second mold M having only a first mold M1, a box-shaped groove Ma for forming a main body, and a semicircular groove Mb for forming a neck pipe.
The extruder E is used by these two molds M 1 and M 2.
Of the box-shaped body 1a and the neck pipe 1b by sandwiching the parison P extruded from the nozzle N of
And the resin at the lower end of the parison P is pressed into the concave groove Mc to form the bracket 2 at the same time. [0004] By the way, in the above-mentioned conventional silencer, the first mold M 1 In the lower part of the box-shaped groove Ma, a concave groove Mc for a bracket having narrow stripes for forming vertical grooves on both sides is formed, and a part of the resin of the parison P is formed in the two grooves. However, if the grooves on both sides are deepened (that is, if the height of the base of the vertical rib 2a is increased), the resin does not enter into the grooves easily, so that the base of the vertical rib 2a is sufficiently inserted. The bracket 2 becomes flat and weak in strength, is easily broken, and the overhang length of the bracket 2 cannot be too long, so that it may be difficult to fix the bracket 2 to the vehicle body. . Accordingly, the present invention provides a silencer with a fixing bracket, which increases the strength of the base end of the bracket to make it less likely to break, and at the same time, increases the overhang length of the bracket to facilitate attachment to the vehicle body. As an issue. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a silencer made of synthetic resin and having a box-shaped main body having a predetermined volume and a fixing bracket attached to the box-shaped main body. A bracket formed of a continuous hollow bag portion and a flat portion having a shallow cross section and extending outward from the tip thereof is formed. 1 and 2 show a muffler 11 according to the present invention.
This is an example of nylon, polypropylene,
A hollow box-shaped main body 11a having a predetermined volume is provided with a neck pipe 11b at the center of one end face thereof, and is bonded and welded to a branch pipe Da of a duct D of an intake system or an exhaust system of an engine. Alternatively, a bag having a side surface triangular shape is formed so as to be connected to the center of the other end surface of the box-shaped main body 11a continuously from the box-shaped main body 11a and inclined downward from the base. A bracket 12 composed of a portion 12a and a shallow groove-shaped flat portion 12b extending outward from the end thereof is formed, and the flat portion 12b is fixed to the vehicle body F by a stopper T. In the molding, as shown in FIG. 3, a semi-circular groove Mb for forming a neck pipe is provided at an upper portion of a box-shaped groove Ma for forming a main body, and a chute-like shape for forming a bag portion 12a is provided at a lower portion. a first mold M 1 having a groove Mc of bracket formed consisting of short pinion concave shaped groove Mc 2 for the flat portion 12b create a groove Mc 1, box-shaped groove Ma and neck pipe forming for body forming second mold M 2 having only a semicircular groove Mb of use is used. The parison P extruded from the nozzle N of the extruder by the first and second molds M 1 and M 2 .
When compressed air is blown into the parison P and expanded, the bag portion 12a of the bracket 12 is blow-molded along with the box-shaped main body 11a and the neck pipe 11b. the lower end of the resin is pushed into concave shape groove Mc 2, the flat portion 12b of the bracket 12 is formed. In this case, since concave shaped groove Mc 2 is a shallow short hardware, resin is pushed the very best in the groove. As described above, since the bag portion 12a of the bracket 12 is formed by blow molding continuously to the box-shaped main body 11a, the height of the base portion and the overhang length can be formed as desired. The rigidity is increased and the mounting on the vehicle body is facilitated. In use, the noise of the intake system or the exhaust system transmitted into the duct D is generated by the branch pipe Da and the neck pipe 11b.
Into the box-shaped main body 11a through the
Noise of a specific frequency corresponding to the length and the inner volume of the box-shaped main body is attenuated. In the illustrated example, the bracket bag 12
The shape of a is shown as a truncated pyramid, but is not limited to this.
The shape may be a truncated cone, a semi-cylindrical shape, or the like. The vertical ribs on both sides of the flat portion 12b may be inclined downward. According to the present invention, since the silencer with the fixing bracket is configured as described above, the bracket bag can be blow-molded together with the box-shaped main body, and the base end thereof can be formed. The height of the part can be appropriately selected and increased, and the cross-sectional shape becomes annular, so that the strength can be increased as compared with the conventional one, and the overhang length of the bag part is also appropriately selected and Length can be increased,
Installation to the vehicle body is also easy.
