Mixing subassembly for an exhaust gas system of an internal combustion engine
A mixing subassembly for an exhaust gas system of an internal combustion engine for mixing exhaust gas, which is discharged by an internal combustion engine, with reactant includes a mixing path which extends in the direction of a mixing path longitudinal axis and which has an upstream mixing path inflow region for receiving exhaust gas and/or reactant in the mixing path. The mixing path includes a core flow channel, through which a first exhaust gas partial flow flows, and a bypass flow channel, through which a second exhaust gas partial flow flows. At least one flow blocking element reduces a flow cross section of the bypass flow channel and is arranged in the bypass flow channel.
Mixer device
A mixer device for introducing and distributing a liquid into a gas flow comprises a mixing chamber which can be flowed through by the gas flow, an overflow pipe which is arranged at least partly in the mixing chamber and which has a jacket surface and a first and a second pipe end, and at least one injector associated with the first pipe end of the overflow pipe to inject the liquid into the overflow pipe. The jacket surface of the overflow pipe has at least one inflow opening through which gas can flow from the mixing chamber into the overflow pipe for a subsequent mixing with the injected fluid. The overflow pipe is configured such that inflowing gas in its interior can have two swirl components of opposite senses imparted onto it.

Selective catalytic reduction with integrated decomposition chamber with exhaust flow swirl generating design
A selective catalytic reduction including a decomposition section including an intake chamber, with a swirl generating plate disposed in an internal volume of the intake chamber. The swirl generating plate includes a curved sidewall, a first end defining an opening, and a second end. The curved sidewall is oriented substantially normal to the direction of an intake flow of exhaust gas and a convex surface of the curved sidewall is oriented to face the direction of the intake flow. The swirl generating plate is configured to divide the intake flow into a first flow portion flowing through the opening, a second and a third flow portion which are directed substantially normal to the direction of intake flow and the flow direction of the first flow portion, and in opposite directions to each other towards a backwall of the intake chamber so as to create opposing swirls.
Method, apparatus and system for aftertreatment of exhaust gas comprising inline housing
An apparatus for aftertreatment of exhaust gas including a housing having a longitudinal axis that extends between a first end and a second end of the housing; an exhaust inlet being positioned at a portion of the first end of the housing for entering exhaust gas flow into the interior of the housing; a first substrate being positioned within the interior of the housing downstream to the exhaust inlet, wherein the exhaust gas flow being configured to flow through the first substrate in direction of the longitudinal axis; mixer arrangement being positioned within the interior of the housing downstream to the first substrate and including: first flow guide arrangement configured to guide the exhaust gas flow to rotating and advancing gas flow in direction of a crosswise axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis; a reactant inlet for dispensing reactant to the rotating and advancing gas flow, the reactant configured to mix with the exhaust gas; and second flow guide arrangement configured to guide the rotating and advancing mixed gas flow in direction of the longitudinal axis as a mixed exhaust gas flow; and a second substrate being positioned within the interior of the housing downstream to the mixer arrangement, wherein the mixed exhaust gas flow being configured to flow through the second substrate in direction of the longitudinal axis.
DOSING AND MIXING ARRANGEMENT FOR USE IN EXHAUST AFTERTREATMENT
Dosing and mixing exhaust gas includes directing exhaust gas towards a periphery of a mixing tube that is configured to direct the exhaust gas to flow around and through the mixing tube to effectively mix and dose exhaust gas within a relatively small area. Some mixing tubes include a slotted region and a non-slotted region. Some mixing tubes include a louvered region and a non-louvered region. Some mixing tubes are offset within a mixing region of a housing.
Mixing tube
The invention relates to a mixer for an exhaust gas system for mixing an additive into an exhaust gas flow of an internal combustion engine, having a first shell and at least a second shell which are arranged successively in the circumferential direction in relation to a center axis, each shell having at least two shell edges that are arranged offset in the circumferential direction and which each form a flow edge, wherein the flow edges of two circumferentially adjacent shell edges of two different shells delimit an inflow opening, such that at least one pipe end arranged coaxially with the center axis is provided with a circumferential pipe profile that has a nominal radius Rn and is used for connection to an exhaust pipe, the pipe end being formed by the circumferentially adjacent shells.
INJECTOR SPRAY PROTECTOR
A vehicle exhaust system includes an injector assembly having an injector mount configured to mount an injector to an exhaust component. The injector mount includes a spray opening surrounding a spray axis. An injector housing extends from an inlet end that receives exhaust gases to an outlet end. The inlet end defines a planar area that is transverse to the spray axis. A spray protector extends axially from the injector mount to break the planar area. A vehicle exhaust component assembly comprising a mixer with the injector assembly and a method for injecting a fluid into an exhaust component using the injector assembly are also disclosed.

A system for use with this concentrate container, in which the coupling fittings are convex in shape. A connection piece provides for disinfection of the system.
APPARATUSES AND SYSTEMS FOR AND METHODS OF GENERATING AND PLACING ZERO-SLUMP-PUMPABLE CONCRETE
Methods, systems, and devices, are developed for creating a means of in-situ placement of a concrete mix that can have the thixotropy to hold vertical dimension without containment, while maintaining pliability to be pumped into place and manipulated to a desired shape, and can be combined with concrete set accelerators, allowing subsequent layers of this concrete mix to be continuously stacked in place to build tall walls and such without the use of forms. Concrete without these special properties is pumped toward the point of placement where it is modified by injecting and mixing, into that line of pumped concrete, an admixture containing thixotropes, thickeners and/or set accelerators or other modifiers to provide these properties and other improvements. This method allows conventional plant batching with commonly available constituent materials for batching an economical concrete that is delivered to a jobsite and then is pumped most of the way to a point of placement, before inline modification; allowing minimal conveyance and pumping of a zero-slump and set-accelerated concrete mix, avoiding difficulties and risk associated with pumping such a modified concrete mix. Various means of metering the injection of the admixture flow rate to correspond proportionally to the concrete flow rate are also disclosed. Alternatively a means for modifying a volumetric concrete batching and mixing system to achieve the same result is disclosed. A system is disclosed for defining a vertical or sloped concrete surface utilizing a movable beam attached to guide elements with sliding brackets, with the beam contact surface optionally having an active non-stick system.
