An insulating device for a thermal and/or acoustic insulation of an exhaust system of a vehicle has a first half shell including at least a first connection rim and a second half shell including at least a second connection rim, the first half shell and the second half shell being connected by a welded joint at the connection rims. The connection rims are reshaped into a multiple fold. Further disclosed are a vehicle exhaust system having an exhaust gas-carrying duct and an insulating device circumferentially surrounding the duct, as well as a method for producing an insulating device for a thermal and/or acoustic insulation of an exhaust system of a vehicle.

A modular exhaust manifold 1 for a motor vehicle, with multiple adjoining manifold pipe modules, having: at least one engine flange, via which an inlet connection pipe of the manifold pipe modules can be connected to a cylinder head of the motor vehicle; at least one manifold pipe module, configured as a collector pipe module and having a contact flange, via which the exhaust manifold can be connected to an exhaust system of the motor vehicle, the respective manifold pipe modules having an overlap contour of a length a that permits the telescoping of two manifold pipe modules to an insertion depth t for coupling purposes, at least two manifold pipe modules being identical in shape, and a variation of the insertion depth t of at least 5 mm to 30 mm or 10 mm or 15 mm or 20 mm or 25 mm being obtained by the formation of length a of the overlap contour. A method for producing a manifold formed from multiple adjoining manifold pipe modules.

A muffler assembly unit for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, especially in a vehicle, includes a muffler (42) with a muffler housing (10). The muffler housing (10) is elongated along a longitudinal axis of the housing. A housing jacket (40) encloses the muffler housing (10). At least one air guiding bulge (34) is provided on the housing jacket (40).

An exhaust system that includes a catalytic converter, selective catalytic reduction system, a muffler and, for certain applications, a diesel particulate filter that each include at least one filter that has an electric heating element, a metallic coating and a plurality of metal rods extending therethrough. The combination of elements are configured to heat the internal housings of the exhaust system and disrupt the direction of flow of exhaust gases which contain harmful toxic gases and pollutants and aid in removing and/or reducing said toxic gases and pollutants.

An exhaust muffler is made up of a plurality of layers including an exhaust passage pipe and expansion chambers, and includes a front assembly and a rear assembly sub-assembled separately from the front assembly. The front assembly includes a front exhaust passage pipe, a front muffler body disposed in covering relation to the outside of the front exhaust passage pipe and cooperating with the front exhaust passage pipe in making up double-walled pipes, and an exhaust valve disposed in the front exhaust passage pipe. The rear assembly includes a rear exhaust passage pipe and a rear muffler body disposed in covering relation to the outside of the rear exhaust passage pipe and cooperating with the rear exhaust passage pipe in making up double-walled pipes. There is thus provided an exhaust device for an internal combustion engine in which the accuracy of a position where the exhaust valve is installed is high.

An exhaust manifold includes an inner assembly that defines an exhaust gas passage and an outer housing assembly that surrounds the inner assembly. The outer housing assembly includes a first housing component configured for attachment to an engine and a second housing component configured for attachment to a turbocharger. The first and second housing components cooperate to surround the inner assembly. At least one fastener secures the first and second housing components together to generate a compressive force that seals and holds the inner assembly in a gas tight manner.

An exhaust gas aftertreatment system for a vehicle includes a cylindrical inner shell, a cylindrical outer shell, an inner end cap, a metal mounting member, and an outer end cap. The inner shell is configured to guide exhaust gas. The outer shell forms a first gap to the inner shell. The inner end cap encloses an open end of the outer shell. The inner end cap includes a first axially-extending lip. The inner end cap is fixed to the inner shell. The outer end cap is fixed to the inner end cap. The outer end cap includes a second axially-extending lip. The outer end cap and the inner end cap cooperate to encapsulate the mounting member. The first axially-extending lip is sandwiched between the outer shell and the second axially-extending lip.

An exhaust tail trim for a vehicle capable of being manufactured in various colors and having advantages of improving aesthetic sense, improving sense of integrated design and improving merchantability of a vehicle may include a heat pipe assembly disposed at an outside of an exhaust pipe through which exhaust gas is discharged; and a trim cover disposed at an end portion of the exhaust pipe and located at an outside of the heat pipe assembly, where the trim cover is made of synthetic resin.

A mixing conduit for use within an exhaust treatment system of a work vehicle. The mixing conduit is configured to receive engine exhaust and a mixture of engine exhaust and reductant. The mixing conduit includes an outer tube and an inner tube within the outer tube. Each tube extends lengthwise from upstream ends to downstream ends of the inner and outer tubes, respectively. The inner tube includes an exterior surface, and the outer tube includes an interior surface. The inner tube defines an inner flowpath within the inner tube. The outer tube and inner tube also define an outer flowpath radially between the exterior surface of the inner tube and the interior surface of the outer tube. The mixing conduit further includes one or more swirler vanes extending radially between the exterior surface of the inner tube and the interior surface of the outer tube and within the outer flowpath.

An outboard motor catalytic converter that can downsize an outboard motor by making a space, where catalysts are installed, small and can ensure efficient reaction of the catalysts. The outboard motor catalytic converter includes exhaust pipes that are connected to exhaust manifolds of an engine of the outboard motor. Catalysts are installed inside the exhaust pipes, and at least a portion of each of the exhaust pipes, which corresponds to a place where the catalysts are installed, is formed to have a double structure constituted of an inner pipe and an outer pipe.
