EXHAUST SYSTEM COMPONENT
An exhaust system component for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle comprises a substrate which is held in a substantially cylindrical housing. The cylindrical housing has a housing jacket which comprises a metal sheet bent about a cylinder axis. The ends of the metal sheet oriented in the circumferential direction relative to the cylinder axis form a joint connected with a weld seam. The weld seam is spaced apart from an inner surface of the housing jacket and the ends each have a bevel at least in sections.
TURBO HOUSING ELEMENT
A turbo housing manifold includes a base plate defining a first opening and a housing conduit portion connected with the base plate and defining a second opening distal from the first opening. The housing conduit can include a first extending portion proximate to the base plate and extending axially away from the base plate, and a second extending portion connected with the first extending portion and distal from the base plate wherein an inner surface of the second extending portion transitions as the second extending portion extends away from the base plate.
COMPOSITIONS AND USES THEREOF
Provided are solid dispersions, solid molecular complexes, salts and crystalline polymorphs involving propane-1-sulfonic acid {3-[5-(4-chloro-phenyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carbonyl]-2,4-difluoro-phenyl}-amide.
MUFFLER ASSEMBLY UNIT
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).
VORTICITY BASED NOISE ABATEMENT
A noise abatement system including at least one fluid circulation chamber to receive at least one flow of fluid; at least one vorticity-inducing component adjacent to the at least one fluid circulation chamber, the at least one vorticity-inducing component to redirect the at least one flow of fluid tangentially to an inside perimeter wall of the at least one fluid circulation chamber to create fluctuations in a flow and pressure of the fluid causing increased and variable vorticity within the at least one fluid circulation chamber; and at least one vorticity-interaction region in communication with the at least one vorticity-inducing component to attenuate acoustics caused by the at least one flow of fluid.
SHEET METAL TUBE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SAME
A method includes providing first and second half-pipe sections. Each of the first and second half-pipe sections includes a first curved portion and defines a first outer edge length. Third and fourth half-pipe sections are provided. Each of the third and fourth half-pipe sections includes a second curved portion and defines a second outer edge length. The second outer edge length is longer than the first outer edge length. The first half-pipe section is welded to the third half-pipe section so as to form a first half-pipe subassembly. The second half-pipe section is welded to the fourth half-pipe section so as to form a second half-pipe subassembly. The first half-pipe subassembly is welded to the second half-pipe subassembly so as to form an exhaust tube section.
Catalytic converter
Provided is a catalytic converter to be disposed in a branch portion between an exhaust gas passage that guides exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine to outside and an exhaust gas recirculation passage that recirculates a portion of the exhaust gas from the exhaust gas passage to an intake system of the internal combustion engine. The catalytic converter comprises a catalyst storage case that stores a catalyst, a recirculation pipe that forms the exhaust gas recirculation passage, an abutment portion that makes the catalyst storage case and the recirculation pipe be in surface contact with each other and be arranged in parallel to each other, and a downstream cone that makes the exhaust gas passage and the exhaust gas recirculation passage merge with each other.
MUFFLER
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.
EXHAUST SYSTEM OF INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE
In an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, an exhaust pipe is reliably bent and deformed during vehicle rear collision while improving drainage performance in the exhaust pipe in normal times. The exhaust system 1 includes a second pipe 17 corresponding to a downstream end part of an exhaust pipe 10 through which exhaust gas flows from an engine 2. The second pipe 17 includes: a fragile part 30 as a starting point of bending deformation of a tail pipe 13; and a partition plate 20 vertically dividing the inside of the second pipe 17 to form, under the partition plate 20, a lower passage 7 to flow water that accumulates in the exhaust pipe 10. The partition plate 20 is in a vicinity of the fragile part 30 and at a position not overlapping with the fragile part 30 in an axial direction of the second pipe 17.
EXHAUST HOUSING
The disclosure relates to a gas-carrying exhaust gas housing of an internal combustion engine comprising: a manifold section, having a central axis and multiple manifold pipe connectors, for securing on a flange plate for connecting to a cylinder of an internal combustion engine; a catalyst housing section having a central axis; and an exhaust pipe connector section provided downstream of the catalyst housing section, for connecting to an onward-conveying exhaust system. In addition, together with catalyst housing section and exhaust pipe connector section, the manifold section forms a two-shell exhaust housing having a first half shell and a second half shell, wherein the two half shells have a separation plane (T) running parallel to the central axis at least in sections, wherein the manifold section has multiple integral manifold pipe connectors which can be attached directly to a flange plate.
