Exhaust gas muffler and method for the manufacture thereof
An exhaust gas muffler, for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, includes a muffler housing (12) with a circumferential wall (14) elongated in a housing axis (L) direction and with an end wall (20, 22) at each axial end area (16, 18). Two exhaust gas pipe holding openings (44, 46) are provided in the circumferential wall (14) with an exhaust gas pipe (40) fixed to the circumferential wall (14) in an area of each exhaust gas pipe holding opening (44, 46) and open towards a housing interior (24). The exhaust gas pipe (40) is preferably closed at one end area (54) by a closing element (58). The exhaust gas pipe (40) has at least one exhaust gas passage opening (66) in a length area (64) extending between the two exhaust gas pipe holding openings (44, 46).
Manufacturing Method of Turbine Housing
In a manufacturing method of a turbine housing having an exhaust gas flow path, the exhaust gas flow path in the turbine housing is formed of a sheet-metal-made divided body and a cast-metal-made divided body, the sheet-metal-made divided body is formed by press molding a sheet metal material, and the cast-metal-made divided body is molded by casting, when the cast-metal-made divided body is cast, one end of the sheet-metal-made divided body is cast into the cast-metal-made divided body by melting the one end of the sheet-metal-made divided body such that the original shape thereof is disappeared.
Reductant dosing unit compact side feed inlet port
A side feed inlet port for an injector, which makes use of stamped parts to form a compact, high strength three-piece inlet port at a significantly reduced cost. By using an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve, injector sealing is accomplished using the interior sleeve, creating a sealing point, while allowing for inlet conduit attachment to the outer sleeve at, above, or below the sealing point of the DEF injector. The construction of the inlet port is such that there is proper sealing between the inner sleeve and one or more seals, while allowing for the connection between the inlet conduit and the outer sleeve to reduce the overall height of the inlet port, and therefore, the injector. The position of the inlet conduit may be altered without affecting the sealing connection between the inner sleeve and the seal(s), such that the desirable overall height may be achieved.
ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR BRAKING THE DISPLACEMENT OF A TAILPIPE COVER
An assembly for braking the displacement of a tailpipe cover is disclosed. The assembly has a clamping element with an elastic material, a tailpipe, and a tailpipe cover. The clamping element is arranged at least indirectly on the tailpipe and on the tailpipe cover. A section of the clamping element extends over the tailpipe in the axial direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tailpipe cover. The distance between the longitudinal axis and the clamping element is designed to be at least partly shorter than the distance between the longitudinal axis and the tailpipe in said clamping element section. Alternatively or in addition thereto, at least one section of the clamping element is arranged at least indirectly against the tailpipe in an immovable manner in the direction of the longitudinal axis.
EXHAUST DEVICE FOR ENGINE
An exhaust device includes a first exhaust pipe, a second exhaust pipe, and a third exhaust pipe. The first exhaust pipe is comprised of a pipe member. The second exhaust pipe and the third exhaust pipe are comprised of a tubular member including a merging tubular portion and a downstream tubular portion. In the merging tubular portion, exhaust gas to be discharged from an exhaust port of the second cylinder and exhaust gas to be discharged from an exhaust port of the third cylinder are merged. The merging tubular portion is comprised of combining a plurality of plate members, at least a part of which is formed by press working. A distal end of the first exhaust pipe is disposed inside the downstream tubular portion. The downstream tubular portion is offset on the side of the first cylinder with respect to a center in a cylinder array direction.
EXHAUST GAS AFTER-TREATMENT MIXING DEVICE
Provided is a tail gas post-treatment mixing device (3), comprising a shell (31), a mixing tube (32) located inside the shell (31), and a partition plate (33) fixed at the periphery of the mixing tube (32), wherein the partition plate (33) separates the shell (31) into a first space used to be in communication with a first post-treatment carrier assembly and a second space used to be in communication with a second post-treatment carrier assembly; the partition plate (33) comprises a first plate sheet (331) located at one side of the mixing tube (32), a second plate sheet (332) located at the other side of the mixing tube (32), and a third plate sheet (333) connecting the first plate sheet and the second plate sheet, with the third plate sheet being provided with a through hole (334) for the mixing tube (32) to pass through; and the mixing tube (32) comprises a first tube part (321) located in the first space and a second tube part (322) located in the second space, and the first tube part is provided with at least two first openings (3211) respectively located at two sides of the first tube part. The tail gas post-treatment mixing device further comprises a first shielding plate (381) and a second shielding plate (382) respectively shielding the front end of the first opening, so that the vast majority of exhaust flow needs to bypass the first and second shielding plates (381, 382) to enter the first opening (3211).
ARRANGEMENT AND METHOD FOR FASTENING A TAILPIPE COVER
An arrangement for fastening a tailpipe cover to a tailpipe is disclosed. The arrangement has a tailpipe cover, a tailpipe and a bracket. The bracket is arranged on the tailpipe cover. The tailpipe cover can be latched here to the tailpipe at a tailpipe projection, which is arranged on the tailpipe, by the bracket being deflected laterally in the circumferential direction of the tailpipe cover.
MUFFLER WITH BAFFLE DEFINING MULTIPLE CHAMBERS
An internal combustion engine includes an engine block including a cylinder and a muffler assembly configured to receive exhaust gases from the cylinder. The muffler assembly includes a housing defining an interior volume and including an exhaust inlet and an exhaust outlet, and a baffle assembly positioned within the interior volume. The baffle assembly includes a plurality of chambers in fluid communication with each other. The plurality of chambers are in fluid communication with the exhaust inlet and the exhaust outlet so that the plurality of chambers are configured to cause exhaust gases to be directed through the muffler assembly from the exhaust inlet to the exhaust outlet through four passes in the baffle assembly before exiting through the exhaust outlet.
Method of manufacturing a cylindrical housing of an exhaust gas treatment unit and method of manufacturing an exhaust gas treatment unit for vehicles
A method of manufacturing a cylindrical housing of an exhaust-gas treatment unit for vehicles includes providing a flat sheet metal part having at least one embossing, and round bending the sheet-metal part in a round bending tool by displacing the sheet metal part between rolls such that the sheet metal part obtains a cylindrical shape having a longitudinal direction parallel to roll axes of the rolls. At least one elastic roll is used such that the embossing of the sheet metal part is maintained during round bending. The longitudinal edges of the cylindrical sheet metal part are then connected to form a tube. A method of manufacturing an exhaust-gas treatment unit is furthermore shown.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AN EXHAUST-GAS AFTERTREATMENT DEVICE
