An assembly unit 1 of an exhaust system has at least one and particularly two connection funnels 2 made of cast material and a pipe 3. The at least one connection funnel 2 has a pipe socket 21 and at least one bracket 22. The bracket 22 is arranged outside of the pipe socket 21. A connection section 31 of the pipe 3 is fastened to the bracket 22 of the at least one connection funnel. The pipe socket 21 extends beyond the connection section 31 of the pipe 3 into the interior of the pipe 3 and is spaced apart from an inner wall of the pipe 3 by at least the simple wall thickness of the pipe 3.

A diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank for an off-road vehicle including a retaining bar configured to support the DEF tank and a channel molded into a side of the DEF tank. The channel is configured to interface with the retaining rod. The DEF tank further including a cutout formed within the channel, wherein the cutout establishes a gap between the retaining bar and a body of the DEF tank. The DEF tank also includes a drain channel molded into an exterior surface of the DEF tank. The drain channel is configured to provide structural support to the DEF tank, and the gap is configured to enable DEF flow downwardly into the drain channel without contacting the retaining bar.

A diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank for an off-road vehicle including a first conduit channel molded into an exterior surface of the DEF tank, at a first depth, in which the first conduit channel is configured to guide a first conduit along the exterior surface of the DEF tank. The DEF tank further including a second conduit channel molded into the exterior surface of the DEF tank at a second depth, different than the first depth, in which the second conduit channel is configured to guide a second conduit, and the first depth and the second depth are selected to create a vertical gap between the first conduit and the second conduit at an intersection of the conduits.

Continuous fiber molded part for silencers or mufflers comprising a continuous fiber and a coat of inorganic binder, wherein the coat encloses the continuous fiber.

A marine propulsion device and a method of making a marine propulsion device including an internal combustion engine that discharges exhaust gases. The internal combustion engine has first and second castings. A first exhaust flow passage is in the first casting and a second exhaust flow passage is in the second casting. The second exhaust flow passage has a first and second leg that are transversely oriented to each other. A catalyst is disposed in the second exhaust flow passage and configured to treat the exhaust gases. A flow control element is between the first and second flow passages. The flow control element forms a smooth transition that is devoid of edges such that the exhaust gases flow across and are dispersed by the flow control element before being treated by the catalyst.

Disclosed is a urea tank and fuel tank assembly, which belongs to the field of automobile parts. The urea tank and fuel tank assembly includes a shell, wherein the shell includes an upper shell, a middle shell and a lower shell, the upper shell, the middle shell and the lower shell are welded separately to form a cavity including a fuel cavity. The urea tank and fuel tank assembly is welded after injection molding, so that not only is the shell uniform in wall thickness and high in mechanical strength, but also the welding stress is dispersed to the upper and lower ends of the shell by setting that the upper shell, the middle shell and the lower shell are welded separately, on the one hand, the stress concentration of the welded part of the shell is reduced and the cracking of the welded part is avoided.

A muffler for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes at least one muffler component with a perforation defined by a plurality of through-flow openings in a wall of the muffler component. The through-flow openings can be flowed through in a flow direction in the direction from an upstream side of the wall to a downstream side of the wall. At least in the case of some or all of the through-flow openings of the perforation, a through-flow opening flow cross section decreases in the flow direction in order to provide a through-flow opening flow-guiding surface.
