A silencer includes conduit with a downstream end portion configured from a tubular member which includes a conduit discharge port extending through a silencer main body and discharges exhaust gas to the outside therethrough. The tubular member includes a resonance communication hole communicating with a resonance chamber and an upstream side communication hole and a downstream side communication hole communicating with a second chamber. A barrier wall serving as a throttle portion for throttling an exhaust path at an intermediate location of the tubular member is provided in the inside of the tubular member and between the upstream side communication hole and the downstream side communication hole.

A sound generator (100) mounts on a vehicle to manipulate vehicle noise originating from a vehicle operated by an internal combustion engine. The sound generator (100) includes a casing (110), a loudspeaker (120), and at least one pressure compensation valve (130). The loudspeaker (120) and the casing (110) together thereby enclose a volume (115). Further, the pressure compensation valve (130) couples the volume (115) enclosed by the loudspeaker (120) and the casing to an outside of the casing (110). The pressure compensation valve (130) thereby extends through a plane in which the loudspeaker (120) is located. A system (200) for manipulating sound waves propagating through exhaust systems of vehicles driven by an internal combustion engine uses the above sound generator (100).

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.

An exhaust muffler in which the anti-scattering property of a sound deadening element is high and for which shaping is not required and a sound deadening element for use with the exhaust muffler. An exhaust muffler includes an expansion chamber into which exhaust gas of an engine is introduced, and a sound deadening element in which the expansion chamber is inserted. The sound deadening element is configured from a knitted article formed by knitting continuous fibers of glass fiber. The exhaust muffler further includes an inner pipe inserted in a spaced relationship from an inner circumferential wall of the expansion chamber in the expansion chamber and configured to introduce the exhaust gas therethrough. The sound deadening element is disposed between an outer circumferential wall of the inner pipe and the inner circumferential wall of the expansion chamber.
