A method of manufacturing an exhaust gas carrying device, in particular an exhaust gas purification device, and a tool provided therefor include segment-like jaws that are used to deforma an outer housing. The jaws have indentations or projections adjacent to each other, and which are complementary to form a continuously surrounding indentation/projection. The reshaped outer housing is provided with one or more surrounding projections or indentations by the deformation.

A sealed honeycomb structure may include porous walls dividedly forming inlet cells and outlet cells extending from an end surface of an inlet side to an end surface of an outlet side, inlet and outlet side sealing portion 5b, and an inlet side sealing portion, wherein at least one outlet cell is a reinforced cell where a reinforcing part 6 for reinforcing the outlet cell 2b is formed at at least one corner portion 21a at which the walls on a cross-section vertical to an extending direction of the cell cross each other, wherein the inlet cell is a non-reinforced cell where the reinforcing part is not formed at all the corner portions at which the walls on the cross-section vertical to the extending direction of the cell cross each other, and wherein the reinforcing parts 6 of the reinforced cells 22 are formed at a section of the honeycomb structure from the end surface of the outlet side in the extending direction of the cell.

An electrically heating support according to the present invention includes: a ceramic honeycomb structure, the honeycomb structure including an outer peripheral wall and a partition wall arranged on an inner side of the outer peripheral wall, the partition wall defining a plurality of cells each extending from one end face to other end face to form a flow path; and a pair of metal electrodes 5 for applying a voltage to a honeycomb structure, wherein each of the pair of metal electrodes 5 includes: at least one connection portion 50 fixed to an outer peripheral surface of the honeycomb structure; and at least one drawer portion 51 extending from the connection portion 50, and wherein the drawer portion is provided with at least two bent portions 510, and extending directions of ridgelines of the at least two bent portions 510 are different from each other.

A marine muffler adapted with an internally tunable sound suppression structure is adaptable to different configurations thereby allowing for structural adjustments to optimize sound suppression and minimize backpressure for particular engine and exhaust conditions. A muffler housing defines an interior volume and includes an exhaust inlet and outlet. The outlet has a reduced diameter as compared with the inlet such that the exhaust gas accelerates through the muffler. An inclined baffle partitions the interior volume into a lower chamber in communication with the exhaust inlet and an upper chamber in communication with the exhaust outlet. Exhaust ducts attached to each side wall penetrate the baffle thereby placing the upper and lower chambers in fluid communication. A corrugated partition divides each exhaust duct into a plurality of non-circular conduits. The muffler may be tuned by selectively capping one or more conduit outlets.

A component (6) of an exhaust system (1) for an internal combustion engine (3), of a motor vehicle, has a housing including a shell (12), two end bottoms (13, 14) and an intermediate bottom (15, 16). The shell (12) encloses an interior space (18) of the housing (11) in a circumferential direction (19). The two end bottoms (13, 14) delimit the interior space (18) in an axial direction (17) at opposite ends and are fixed to the shell (12). The intermediate bottom (15) is arranged in the interior space (18) axially between the end bottoms (13, 14) and is radially supported on the shell (12). A holding pipe (22), for connection of the component (6) to a system periphery (9), is radially held on the intermediate bottom (15) in the interior space (18), passes through one end bottom (13), is fastened thereon and is closed off in a gas-tight manner.

A bracket assembly for locating an injector relative to a vehicle exhaust component including a first bracket configured to be attached to a cross-beam of a vehicle frame; and a second bracket configured to be attached to the first bracket and including a primary panel configured to support the injector relative to the vehicle exhaust component The first bracket includes a first end, an opposite second end, and a planar section connecting the first end and the opposite second end, the first end, the opposite second end, and the planar section collectively defining a seat configured for receipt of the cross-beam; and the second bracket includes a first arm extending outward from the primary panel configured to mate with the first end and a second arm extending outward from the primary panel configured to mate with the second end.

An exhaust structure for an exhaust manifold includes a body including a first inlet section configured to receive exhaust gas, a second inlet section configured to receive exhaust gas, and an outlet section disposed in fluid communication with each of the first inlet section and the second inlet section to receive exhaust gas, wherein exhaust gas from the first inlet section and the second inlet section exit the exhaust structure through the outlet section, and wherein the outlet section includes a flange. The body may include a rib extending generally along the longitudinal axis and disposed on a surface of the outlet section, the rib including a first section having a first inclined surface, a second section spaced from the first section and having a second inclined surface, and a third section disposed between the first section and the second section, the third section having a curved surface.

A sound damper for a fuel-cell system includes a tubular sound-damper casing made of plastic material. The casing is elongate in the direction of a sound-damper longitudinal axis. A first sound-damper end piece made of plastic material is fixed to the sound-damper casing at a first axial end of the sound-damper casing. A second sound-damper end piece made of plastic material is fixed to the sound-damper casing at a second axial end of the sound-damper casing. On at least one sound-damper end piece, at least one fastening element is provided for fastening the sound damper to a support structure.
