A method of manufacturing a subassembly for an exhaust treatment device includes providing a metal sheet including first and second apertures having respective first and second sizes, and a one-piece pipe including first and second linear portions having respective third and fourth sizes. The method further includes defining the first size based on a first difference between the first size and the third size being less than or equal to a predetermined value, and defining the second size based on manufacturing tolerances of the pipe to assure that the second linear portion will pass through the second aperture while the first linear portion passes through the first aperture. The method further includes fixing the first linear portion to the sheet, expanding the second linear portion from the fourth size to an enlarged size less than or equal to the predetermined value, and fixing the second linear portion to the sheet.

A muffler, connected to an engine through an exhaust pipe, includes a shell serving as a muffler body, an inlet pipe configured to introduce exhaust gas from the engine into the shell, an outlet pipe configured to discharge the exhaust gas out of the shell, and a cap configured to be attached to a narrowed portion of the inlet pipe and control the direction in which the exhaust gas flows out. The cap is provided with an opening through which the exhaust gas passes and which regulates the direction in which the exhaust gas flows out.

A silencer insert (10) for a silencer of an exhaust system includes a first and a second partition wall (11, 12) and a connecting wall (13) arranged therebetween. The first partition wall (11) defines a first plane (E1), the second partition wall (12) defines a second plane (E2), and the connecting wall (13) defines a third plane (E3). At least one of the first partition wall, the second partition wall, and the connecting wall includes at least one perforated area (15). The connecting wall (13) is formed in one piece with the first partition wall (11) and the second partition wall (12). The first plane encloses with the second plane an angle of not more than 60, the first plane and the second plane being particularly in parallel. A silencer is provided including a housing (1) receiving the silencer insert (10). A method is provided for manufacturing the silencer insert.

An exhaust gas-treating device (1) for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, especially of a motor vehicle, has a housing (2), which has a jacket (3) extending circumferentially on the side and two end-side end bottoms (4, 5). Maintenance is simplified with at least one mounting tube (6), which passes through one or the first end bottom (4) and into the outlet end (8) of which a particle filter (7) is plugged axially from the outside, with a deflecting housing (9). The deflecting housing (9) contains a deflecting chamber (10), and has at least one inlet (11) communicating with the deflecting chamber (10) and at least one outlet (12) communicating with the deflecting chamber (10). A fastening device (13) is provided for detachably fastening the respective inlet (11) at the respective outlet end (8) of the mounting tube (6).

An air exhausting device includes a muffler internally divided into a plurality of chambers by a separator, an inlet pipe that couples an exhaust pipe of an engine to the muffler, and an outlet pipe that is a path to discharge an exhaust gas inside the muffler to outside air. The muffler is configured of an expansion chamber to which a downstream end of the inlet pipe opens, and a resonator chamber communicated with only the expansion chamber via a plurality of resonator pipes. Any of or both of lengths and thicknesses of the plurality of resonator pipes are different.

An air exhausting device includes an inlet pipe that couples an exhaust pipe of an engine to a muffler, an outlet pipe that is a path to discharge an exhaust gas inside the muffler to outside air, and the muffler divided into a plurality of chambers by separators. The muffler is configured of a first expansion chamber, a second expansion chamber with which the outlet pipe is communicated, and a third expansion chamber. The inlet pipe is communicated with the first expansion chamber. The outlet pipe is communicated with the second expansion chamber. The first expansion chamber is adjacent to and communicated with the second expansion chamber via a first pipe. The second expansion chamber is communicated with the third expansion chamber via a second pipe. The first expansion chamber is communicated with the third expansion chamber via a third pipe.

There is provided an exhaust device of a straddle-type vehicle. A first muffler body is arranged at one side, at which a drive chain is not arranged, in a region at the rear of a chamber. A second muffler body is arranged at another side, at which the drive chain is arranged. A first connection pipe interconnects the chamber and the first muffler body. A second connection pipe interconnects the chamber and the second muffler body. An exhaust control valve is configured to control a flow rate of exhaust air to circulate from an exhaust port toward the first muffler body via an exhaust pipe, the chamber and the first connection pipe. A part or all of the second connection pipe is formed to have a pipe shape by two or more plate materials, and has a non-true circular cross-sectional surface shape.

The invention is related to a pulsation muffler (100) for a gaseous medium flow (107), which is supplied by a compressor. The pulsation muffler (100) comprises a housing (101) extending along a central axis with a medium flow inlet (106) and a medium flow outlet; several tubular absorber elements (108) concentrically arranged in the housing (10) and fluidically arranged one behind the other. Each tubular absorber element (108) is provided with an inlet area and an outlet area, positioned at an axial distance from each other. Between the respective radially adjacent wall sections of different absorber elements (108), a flow compartment (112, 114) is maintained for the medium flow (107).

An exhaust device includes an expansion chamber that expands an exhaust gas from an engine; a separator that partitions the expansion chamber; and a plurality of catalyst units arranged in the expansion chamber and supported in parallel by the separator. The separator is divided into upper and lower portions through a dividing plane, and the plurality of catalyst units are supported in such a manner as to be clamped from upper and lower sides at the dividing plane.
