Abstract
A fan housing for a vehicle system includes a housing frame extending in a peripheral direction and penetrated by a connection opening for suctioning external air or external particles. A suctioned airflow or particle flow flows through the housing frame as a suction flow and in a direction of flow. Starting from the connection opening, a connection pipe extends in a direction outside the housing frame and a partition extends in a direction inside the housing frame.
Claims20
A fan housing for a vehicle system, comprising:
- a housing frame extending in a peripheral direction and penetrated by a connection opening for suctioning external air or external particles;
- and
- a particle flow configured to flow through the housing frame in a direction of flow;
- wherein, starting from the connection opening, a connection pipe extends in a direction outside the housing frame and a partition extends in a direction inside the housing frame;
- wherein, an airflow through the connection pipe forms a suction flow.
A cooling circuit for cooling an engine of a vehicle system, comprising:
- a heat exchanger;
- an air filter;
- a suction line fluidly coupled to the air filter;
- a connection pipe fluidly coupled to the suction line for suctioning particles from the air filter;
- a fan housing including a housing frame defining a connection opening, the connection opening coupled to the connection pipe;
- a first airflow of particles suctioned through the connection pipe and into the fan housing via the connection opening;
- a second airflow of particles configured to flow through the heat exchanger and into the fan housing;
- and
- a partition extending into the fan housing downstream of the first and second airflows.
A fan housing for a vehicle system, comprising:
- a housing frame defining a connection opening for receiving suctioned particles;
- a connection pipe fluidly coupled to the connection opening for suctioning particles therethrough;
- a first airflow of particles suctioned through the connection pipe and into the housing frame via the connection opening, the first airflow flowing in a first flow direction;
- a second airflow of particles configured to flow into the housing frame, the second airflow flowing in a second flow direction;
- and
- a partition extending into the fan housing downstream of the first and second airflows.
