A component for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a component housing (22) elongated in the direction of a housing axis with an exhaust gas inlet (21) and with an exhaust gas outlet (24) and a carrier assembly unit (28) for connecting the component (16) to a carrier structure. The carrier assembly unit (28) includes a carrier rod (46), the carrier rod (46) being fixed to the component housing (22) in at least two fastening areas (60, 62) located at spaced locations from one another along the carrier rod (46). The carrier assembly unit (28) has at least one carrier rod connection area (52, 54) for connection to the carrier structure.

An exhaust device (108) for a vehicle is provided. The exhaust device (108) includes an outer shell (202), an inlet (206) to receive exhaust gases, an outlet (208), an inner shell (204) received within the outer shell (202), a pair of partition walls (216) and a Helmholtz neck (220). The inner shell (204) defines an inner volume (210). A plurality of first circumferential openings (212) extending through the inner shell (204) fluidly communicates the inlet (206) with the inner volume (210). A plurality of second circumferential openings (214) extending through the inner shell (204) fluidly communicates the outlet (208) with the inner volume (210). The pair of partition walls (216) is disposed between the inner shell (204) and the outer shell (202). The pair of partition walls (216), the inner shell (204) and the outer shell (202) define a Helmholtz chamber (218) therebetween. The partition walls (216) seal the Helmholtz chamber (218) from the inlet (206) and the outlet (208). The Helmholtz neck (220) is disposed on the inner shell (204) or one of the pair of partition walls (216).

A valve mounting structure includes a mounting portion, a valve, and a cushion. The valve includes a valve seat having a cylindrical joining portion that receives the mounting portion inserted thereto, or is inserted to the mounting portion. The cushion is arranged between the mounting portion and the joining portion, and fixed to each of the mounting portion and the joining portion. In a case where one of the mounting portion and the joining portion is a first portion and the other is a second portion, the first portion includes a peripheral wall and an opening portion without the peripheral wall formed therein. A fixing portion in which the second portion and the cushion are fixed to each other is at least partly arranged at a position adjacent to the opening portion along a radial direction of the mounting portion.

An acoustic damper includes a low porosity layer section and a housing. The low porosity layer section is formed in a liner of a gas turbine combustor and has an arrangement of elongated generally S-shaped slots formed therein. The housing has a plurality of feed apertures. The housing is coupled to the low porosity layer section thereby defining a cavity such that air outside the housing is configured to flow through the apertures and through the elongated generally S-shaped slots in the low porosity layer section, thereby transforming acoustic energy into thermal energy and aiding in providing an acoustic dampening effect for the gas turbine combustor during operation thereof.

A muffler for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a muffler housing having a peripheral wall elongated along a longitudinal housing axis. The muffler has an end wall on each axial end region of the peripheral wall and a muffler insert, surrounded by the peripheral wall and supported on the peripheral wall. A retaining wall extends substantially in the direction of the longitudinal housing axis and a first exhaust-gas routing pipe is positioned with a first end region engaging in an opening in the peripheral wall and is secured to the peripheral wall and retained with a second end region on the retaining wall. The first exhaust-gas routing pipe is retained in its second end region on the retaining wall by force closure or interlocking.

A condensed water drainage device of an exhaust system includes a casing having an inlet on a first side thereof and an outlet on a second side thereof and a deformable member coupled to the first side of the casing and configured to elastically and extendably deform. The drainage device includes a condensed water drainage member coupled to the deformable member to extend the deformable member by pressure of an exhaust gas introduced to the deformable member and having a condensed water drainage hole communicating with the outlet. The drainage device includes a stopper coupled to the second side of the casing to limit movement of the condensed water drainage member and to open or close the condensed water drainage hole according to extension or contraction of the deformable member.
