An exhaust pipe includes a tubular portion and a space forming portion. The tubular portion forms an exhaust flow path in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine. The tubular portion has a tubular shape. The space forming portion is provided along at least one of an inner surface and an outer surface of the tubular portion and forms at least one branch space between the space forming portion and the tubular portion. The at least one branch space communicates with the exhaust flow path and has a function as a side-branch muffler. The at least one branch space includes a space with a length that is one third or more of an entire length of the exhaust system.

Constraints on arrangement of catalysts are reduced, and early activation and long-term performance maintenance of the catalysts are both achieved. An exhaust pipe includes a first catalyst provided in a first exhaust pipe extending upward on the side of an exhaust manifold, and a second catalyst provided in a second exhaust pipe that extends downward from a bent pipe extending from the first exhaust pipe and that is adjacent to the first exhaust pipe. The second catalyst is disposed at a position offset to a higher location from an up-down middle position of the first exhaust pipe.

A vehicle exhaust system for allowing passage of exhaust gasses therethrough. The vehicle exhaust system has a first pipe having a first end and a second end. The first end defines an exhaust gas inlet and the second end defines an exhaust gas outlet. The vehicle exhaust system also has a second pipe positioned downstream of the first pipe and has a third end and a fourth end. At least a portion of the second end of first pipe is positioned within the third end of the second pipe defining an overlap between the second end of the first pipe and the third end of the second pipe. The first pipe and the second pipe together define a volume for the exhaust gasses. The volume comprises a first volume passageway between the exhaust gas inlet and the exhaust gas outlet and a second volume passageway defined by the overlap of the second pipe and the first pipe and having an inlet for exhaust gasses into the second volume passageway and an outlet from the second volume passageway positioned axially upstream of inlet. The inlet is positioned downstream of the exhaust gas outlet

Disclosed is a turbocharger for an internal combustion engine comprising a turbine having a turbine housing and a diffusor. The turbine housing comprises an exhaust gas outlet volume, and the diffusor is arranged in this volume. A housing orifice and a diffusor orifice are arranged through each of the turbine housing and diffusor respectively and are mutually aligned to provide an opening into the exhaust gas outlet volume. The turbocharger further comprises a bushing arranged within the housing orifice and extending towards the diffusor orifice and ending at a first end in association with the diffusor orifice. The first end of bushing has an internal diameter that is greater than or equal to a diameter of the diffusor orifice.

A catalytic converter includes at least one heating element that is configured to 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.

A vehicle exhaust system includes a tubular component which allow passage of exhaust gases therethrough. The tubular component includes an upstream pipe having a first end and a second end. The tubular component further includes a downstream pipe having a third end and a fourth end. The third end of the downstream pipe at least partially encloses the second end of the upstream pipe such that the upstream pipe and the downstream pipe together define a junction region and the fourth end defines a primary exhaust gas flow path. The downstream pipe at least partially defines an opening within the junction region such that the opening provides a secondary exhaust gas flow path.

A vehicle exhaust system for allowing passage of exhaust gasses therethrough. The vehicle exhaust system has a first pipe having a first end and a second end. The first end defines an exhaust gas inlet and the second end defines an exhaust gas outlet. The vehicle exhaust system also has a second pipe positioned downstream of the first pipe and has a third end and a fourth end. At least a portion of the second end of first pipe is positioned within the third end of the second pipe defining an overlap between the second end of the first pipe and the third end of the second pipe. The first pipe and the second pipe together define a volume for the exhaust gasses. The volume comprises a first volume passageway between the exhaust gas inlet and the exhaust gas outlet and a second volume passageway defined by the overlap of the second pipe and the first pipe and having an inlet for exhaust gasses into the second volume passageway and an outlet from the second volume passageway positioned axially upstream of inlet. The inlet is positioned downstream of the exhaust gas outlet

An exhaust system with a multipiece heat shield for a work vehicle includes a first shield part and a second shield part. The first shield part surrounds an aftertreatment unit for aftertreating exhaust gases. The first shield part extends in an axial direction. The second shield part surrounds an exhaust tailpipe with radial spacing between the second shield part and the exhaust tailpipe. The second shield extends in the axial direction from the first shield part, wherein a radial gap between the first and second shield parts is sealed by a seal.

A vehicle exhaust system includes an inner pipe in which exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine flows, and an outer pipe surrounding a part of the inner pipe. One end of the outer pipe is formed to have a diameter smaller than that of other portions of the outer pipe, and fixed to an outer surface of the inner pipe. A region of the outer pipe from the other end before the one end is a free region unattached to the outer surface of the inner pipe.

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.
