A mixer for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a mixer housing (40) with an inflow opening central axis (LE) and with an outflow opening (38). A first flow duct (48) following the inflow opening (24) in the mixer housing (40) and a second flow duct (50) lead parallel to one another to a third flow duct (54) and open into same. The third flow duct (54) leads to the outflow opening (38). The first flow duct (48) and the second flow duct (50) are provided between an outer wall (16) of the mixer housing (40) and a flow divider wall (36) enclosed by the outer wall (16), and the third flow duct (54) is enclosed by the flow divider wall (36).

An exhaust system provided to an engine having an output shaft extending in a specific direction, includes an exhaust passage, a turbocharger having a turbine housing, and purifying parts. The exhaust passage includes a first passage part extending to one side in the specific direction from the turbine housing, a third passage part extending in the specific direction below the turbine housing, and a second passage part extending upward from one end part of the third passage part in the specific direction. A center axis of the second passage part inclines so that an upper end thereof is located on one side of a lower end in the specific direction. The first passage part has in an upper surface thereof an inclined part to which one of a sensor configured to detect a property of exhaust gas and an injector configured to inject fluid into exhaust gas, is attached.

Clamping apparatus is provided including clamp means for clamping two or more items together in use. The clamping means are arranged to move between a clamped and an unclamped position in use. Attachment means are provided on or associated with the clamping means for attaching one or more components to said clamping means in use. The components consist of any or any combination of one or more sensor means, one or more dispensing means or one or more electronic components. The clamping means includes at least one band member. The at least one band member forms an outer band and the attachment means are provided on or associated with at least an additional band member in the form of an inner band or segment that is provided with or associated with the outer band.

An automated diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) system and method for refilling DEF. The automated DEF system provides DEF refilling after an initial setup and without manual intervention. The automated DEF system includes a electric DEF flow control device that controls the flow of DEF. The electric DEF flow control device may include control circuitry, an electrics enclosure that encloses the control circuity, an electric fluid sensor, a valve, a beacon light, a status light, a button, a threaded swivel connection, and a mandrel on the inside of the threaded swivel connection.

A controller for controlling regeneration in an aftertreatment system comprising a first leg and a second leg is configured to: determine whether regeneration is permitted by the engine based on engine operating parameters; in response to regeneration being permitted, determine whether regeneration is required in at least one of the first leg or the second leg based on operating parameters of the first leg and the second leg, and whether regeneration is inhibited in either the first leg or the second leg; and in response to determining that (i) regeneration is required in at least one of the first or second leg, and (ii) regeneration is not inhibited in either the first or the second leg, cause insertion of hydrocarbons into the engine to thereby increase the temperature of the exhaust gas to a target temperature and cause regeneration in each of the first and second leg.

Systems and methods to control operation of a system based on aftertreatment interaction include a controller structured to receive one or more parameters associated with an exhaust aftertreatment system of an electric vehicle, where the one or more parameters are associated with an aftertreatment event associated with the aftertreatment system, determine an operation state of the system based on the one or more parameters, and generate a command structured to adjust operation of the system responsive to the determination of the operation state.

An exhaust system is provided to an engine having an output shaft extending in a vehicle front-and-rear direction. The system includes an exhaust passage including a first passage part extending forward from a turbine housing of a turbocharger, a fourth passage part extending in the front-and-rear direction below the turbine housing, a second passage part disposed so that it extends vertically and its center axis inclines forward and upward, and a third passage part having a downstream connecting part extending forward from a front end of the fourth passage part, and an upstream connecting part extending forward and upward from an upper part of a front end of the downstream connecting part. The downstream part has, at a lower part of its front end, an attaching part extending downwardly from a lower edge of the upstream part, and to which a sensor or an injector is attached.

An arrangement of at least two engine-compartment exhaust system components is provided for an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle. The at least two engine-compartment exhaust system components are arranged one behind the other downstream from the internal combustion engine of the motor vehicle and are connected to one another by means of a first connecting body, so that exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine can be directed in succession through the at least two exhaust system components in the direction of an exhaust system. In addition, the two exhaust system components are also arranged behind a manifold device of the internal combustion engine by means of a second connecting body. A motor vehicle is also provided which comprises at least one such arrangement.

A method for diagnosing a plurality of lambda sensors which are arranged upstream of an exhaust gas catalytic converter in a plurality of exhaust gas banks of a multi-flow exhaust gas system of an internal combustion engine. An opposite lambda offset of the lambda sensors is identified (54) when a difference (ΔT) between a measured exhaust gas temperature (T.sub.measure) and a modeled exhaust gas temperature (T.sub.mod) downstream of the exhaust gas catalytic converter overshoots a threshold value (S).

A mixer for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a mixer housing (40) with an inflow opening central axis (LE) and with an outflow opening (38). A first flow duct (48) following the inflow opening (24) in the mixer housing (40) and a second flow duct (50) lead parallel to one another to a third flow duct (54) and open into same. The third flow duct (54) leads to the outflow opening (38). The first flow duct (48) and the second flow duct (50) are provided between an outer wall (16) of the mixer housing (40) and a flow divider wall (36) enclosed by the outer wall (16), and the third flow duct (54) is enclosed by the flow divider wall (36).
