The ripple structure and flexible characteristics of flexible metal hoses can play a role in attenuating vibration between vibration systems and rigid system connections, reducing noise, balancing thermal expansion and compensating for the displacement between connections. In addition, flexible metal hoses as automotive OEM components, its early design matching work is extremely complex.
In the design process, not only the comprehensive size specifications, mechanical performance but also through a series of vibration, heat resistance, fatigue and road tests, more demanding than the actual application of the test. Therefore, the application of this flexible metal hose connector to automotive engineering can further improve the comfort and safety of the car, and is conducive to the realization of green requirements.
Today, flexible metal hoses have been widely used in automotive engineering, especially in Europe, and have shown extremely broad prospects for development.
Flexible metal hoses are used more and more in automotive engineering, such as in exhaust pipes, which greatly attenuated the vibration and noise transmitted by the engine to the exhaust pipe. And the structure strength is high, can partially carry the suspension of the exhaust system. The ripple structure achieves maximum motion absorption and expansion compensation in the shortest connection length.
Therefore, the application of flexible metal hose in the emission system can reduce the vibration and noise of the car, not only improve the comfort of the car, but also help to extend the life of the vehicle emission system. Metal hoses have the advantages of compact structure, simple installation, good air tightness, high temperature resistance and anti-squeezing, even in high-frequency vibration conditions, still have good vibration and noise damping characteristics.
As an important component in the connecting pipeline of modern industrial equipment, metal hoses have a wide range of applications and uses. After a hundred years of development, material improvement, metal hose performance is better, the role of greater. Metal hoses are now used in more and more industries.
