Water muffler of personal watercraft
View Patent ↗A water muffler of a personal watercraft comprises: a muffler body; and an inlet pipe which is connected to the muffler body and guides an exhaust gas and cooling water to an inner space of the muffler body. The inlet pipe includes: a center pipe wall; an outer pipe wall provided to surround the center pipe wall; an exhaust passage provided inside the center pipe wall; and a water passage surrounded by the center pipe wall and the outer pipe wall. The center pipe wall has in a downstream end portion of the inlet pipe, a protruding portion protruding from the outer pipe wall in an axial direction of the inlet pipe, and an outlet of the water passage is located to be apart from an outlet of the exhaust passage in an axial direction of the inlet pipe.
1. A water muffler of a personal watercraft, comprising:
a muffler body having a tubular shape; and
an inlet pipe which is connected to the muffler body and guides an exhaust gas and cooling water to an inner space of the muffler body,
wherein the inlet pipe includes:
a center pipe wall;
an outer pipe wall provided to surround the center pipe wall;
an exhaust passage which is provided inside the center pipe wall and through which the exhaust gas flows; and
a water passage which is surrounded by an outer peripheral surface of the center pipe wall and an inner peripheral surface of the outer pipe wall, and through which cooling water flows,
wherein the center pipe wall has in a downstream end portion of the inlet pipe, a protruding portion protruding from the outer pipe wall in an axial direction of the inlet pipe, and an outlet of the water passage is located to be apart from an outlet of the exhaust passage in the axial direction of the inlet pipe, and
wherein the protruding portion of the center pipe wall is provided with a radially protruding portion which protrudes in a radial direction of the inlet pipe.
2. A water muffler of a personal watercraft, comprising:
a muffler body having a tubular shape; and
an inlet pipe which is connected to the muffler body and guides an exhaust gas and cooling water to an inner space of the muffler body,
wherein the inlet pipe includes:
a center pipe wall;
an outer pipe wall provided to surround the center pipe wall;
an exhaust passage which is provided inside the center pipe wall and through which the exhaust gas flows; and
a water passage which is surrounded by an outer peripheral surface of the center pipe wall and an inner peripheral surface of the outer pipe wall, and through which cooling water flows,
wherein the center pipe wall has in a downstream end portion of the inlet pipe, a protruding portion protruding from the outer pipe wall in an axial direction of the inlet pipe, and an outlet of the water passage is located to be apart from an outlet of the exhaust passage in the axial direction of the inlet pipe, and
wherein the inlet pipe is inclined downward toward a downstream side.
3. A water muffler of a personal watercraft, comprising:
a muffler body having a tubular shape; and
an inlet pipe which is connected to the muffler body and guides an exhaust gas and cooling water to an inner space of the muffler body,
wherein the inlet pipe includes:
a center pipe wall;
an outer pipe wall provided to surround the center pipe wall;
an exhaust passage which is provided inside the center pipe wall and through which the exhaust gas flows; and
a water passage which is surrounded by an outer peripheral surface of the center pipe wall and an inner peripheral surface of the outer pipe wall, and through which cooling water flows,
wherein the center pipe wall has in a downstream end portion of the inlet pipe, a protruding portion protruding from the outer pipe wall in an axial direction of the inlet pipe, and an outlet of the water passage is located to be apart from an outlet of the exhaust passage in the axial direction of the inlet pipe, and
wherein a center of the outlet of the exhaust passage is located above a center of the muffler body.
