[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Field> This invention relates to a cooling device for an automobile exhaust system. <Conventional Technology> As is well known, when a car is operated under heavy load such as driving at low speeds during the summer, or driving at low speeds with the air conditioning system activated, the exhaust manifolds and exhaust pipes of the engine are damaged. When the exhaust system becomes hot, fuel evaporates and fuel vapor accumulates in fuel passages such as fuel pipes and fuel pumps, blocking the fuel passages and causing a vapor lock phenomenon in which fuel is no longer supplied to the engine. When this vapor lock phenomenon occurs, it causes a decrease in output, poor acceleration, and surges, and in extreme cases, the vehicle becomes unable to run.

In addition, the fuel in the fuel passage of the carburetor is heated and steam is generated, and the pumping action of the steam causes liquid fuel to be discharged from the main nozzle and acceleration nozzle, resulting in a rich air-fuel ratio and unstable idle. Problems such as engine stalling and poor restartability also occur.

Therefore, as a measure to lower the fuel temperature, there is a fuel return method in which a large amount of fuel is supplied and a portion of it is recirculated to the tank, but this is not a fundamental solution to the above problem.

Although it is not a measure against the above-mentioned trouble, in the exhaust system of an automobile engine equipped with a catalytic converter, a heat pipe device for receiving exhaust heat is provided behind the catalytic converter, and the heat dissipation section of the heat pipe device is provided. An idea was proposed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 115920/1983 in which the exhaust gas was connected to a part of the vehicle body to lower the temperature of the exhaust gas.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> The above-mentioned troubles are mainly caused by overheating in the engine room during the summer due to convective heat transfer using the exhaust system such as the exhaust manifold as a heat source. Therefore, it is never a bad idea to cool the exhaust system such as the exhaust manifold, but if it is cooled more than necessary, the water vapor contained in the exhaust gas will condense in the winter, causing corrosion of the exhaust system such as the exhaust manifold. becomes.

When the engine is operated with the valve 13 open in a car equipped with the exhaust system cooling device as described above, the working fluid in the heat receiving part 6 evaporates due to the heat of the exhaust gas, and the heat is radiated through the outgoing pipe 11. The heat is returned to the heat receiving part 6 through the heat dissipating part 10, that is, the vehicle body 3 having a large area, where it is radiated to the outside air and condensed, and then returns to the heat receiving part 6 through the return pipe 12. and heat receiving part 6
is heated again and the cycle is repeated. Therefore, the heat of the exhaust gas can be exchanged with the heat receiving part 6 and radiated to the outside of the vehicle with the heat radiating part 10, thereby cooling the exhaust system.

On the other hand, when the engine is operated with the valve 13 closed, the working fluid in the heat receiving section 6 evaporates, flows back through the outgoing pipe 11 to the heat radiating section 10, radiates heat, and condenses. However, since the valve 13 is closed, the heat cannot return to the heat receiving part 6 and accumulates in the heat radiating part 10. Then, since no new working fluid is supplied to the heat receiving section 6, the operation of the heat pipe is stopped. Therefore, cooling of the exhaust system can be stopped.

<Effects of the invention> The present invention not only cools the exhaust system by opening the valve in the middle of the return pipe and circulating the working fluid of the heat pipe to the heat radiation part, but also allows the heat radiation part to be connected to a part of the vehicle body. Since it is constructed of the following, heat can be radiated over a large area and the heat radiating effect is high, and the heat of the exhaust system is efficiently radiated to the outside air to prevent engine troubles due to overheating of the exhaust system.
Moreover, if the circulation of the working fluid is stopped by closing the valve in the middle of the return pipe, the exhaust system will not be cooled, so that problems such as the generation of condensed water due to overcooling of the exhaust system can be prevented. Furthermore, since the heat dissipation section is formed of a part of the vehicle body, the mounting strength of the heat pipe is increased, and the mounting work is also facilitated, thereby improving work efficiency. The present invention opens the valve to circulate the working fluid in the summer when the exhaust system needs to be cooled, and closes the valve to circulate the working fluid in the winter when the exhaust system does not need to be cooled. Since the exhaust system temperature is adjusted by stopping the exhaust system, it has high practical value as an exhaust system cooling device for automobiles.
