MIX BOX
A mix box for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, the mix box being used to incorporate additives into an exhaust gas flow and including at least one inlet tube, at least one outlet tube and a housing for accommodating the inlet tube and the outlet tube, wherein: the housing delimits a volume of the mix box in relation to the surroundings; the inlet tube has an inflow section located inside the housing, which inflow section is provided with at least one inflow opening for introducing the exhaust gas into the housing; the outlet tube has a metering device designed as an injection nozzle at the end of the outlet tube and has an outflow section located inside the housing, which outflow section has a length (La) and is provided with at least one outflow opening for discharging the exhaust gas from the housing; a flow zone is provided between the inlet tube and the outlet tube and the flow zone, over at least 30% of its length (La), is free of flow guiding elements which deflect the flow in a circumferential direction and which have an outer face and an inner face inside the volume.
Quadruple-tuned silencer apparatus and method for attenuating sound from an engine exhaust
An apparatus and method for attenuating sound from an engine exhaust. The relative lengths of the expansion chambers and other components within the apparatus provide a quadruple tuning effect which attenuates sound over a wide frequency range. Attenuation at higher frequencies is also increased and extended by the use of acoustically lined internal baffle tubes inside the apparatus housing.

Motorcycle and motorcycle rear wheel swingarm with integrated resonator
A motorcycle has an engine and an exhaust gas pipe which is connected thereto, as well as a motorcycle rear wheel swingarm. The motorcycle rear wheel swingarm has a closed cavity which is in fluid connection with the exhaust gas pipe by way of a connecting element.
EXHAUST DEVICE
An exhaust device includes: an exhaust chamber defining within an exhaust gas passage an expansion space in which exhaust gas is allowed to expand; a chamber inlet pipe coupled to the exhaust chamber and having a downstream end that is open to the expansion space; a first catalyst located in the exhaust gas passage upstream of the expansion space; and a second catalyst located in the chamber inlet pipe in opposition to the expansion space.
Exhaust handling systems for marine vessels and related methods
An embodiment of an exhaust handling system for a marine vessel includes a cap connected to a top end portion of an exhaust stack of the marine vessel to form an enclosure at least partially surrounding an outlet of an exhaust pipe extending through the exhaust stack. In addition, the exhaust handling system includes a collection pipe in fluid communication with the cap such that the collection pipe is to receive exhaust from the enclosure, and a coupling connected to the collection pipe that is to connect to an exhaust cleaning assembly. The exhaust cleaning system includes a tank to receive the exhaust. The cap at least partially defines a first flow path for the exhaust that extends from the enclosure to the atmosphere. The collection pipe at least partially defines a second flow path for the exhaust that extends from the enclosure to the coupling via the collection pipe.
