A muffler for an exhaust gas system of an internal combustion engine. The muffler has a muffler housing having at least two interconnected housing shells delimiting a muffler interior. Each housing shell has a connecting edge extending away from the muffler interior. The housing shells are mutually connected by material bonding in the region of their mutually adjacent housing shell connecting edges. An insulating arrangement covers at least regions of the inner side of one of the housing shells. The insulating arrangement has an insulating shell with an insulating shell connecting edge extending away from the muffler interior and the insulating shell is arranged with the insulating shell connecting edge between the mutually adjacent connecting edges of the housing shells and is connected by material bonding to the connecting edges of the housing shells in the region of the insulating shell connecting edge.

A muffler for receiving exhaust gas from a combustion engine comprises a shell, first and second inlet pipes each having outlets providing exhaust gas to a mixing chamber within the shell, a first chamber and a second chamber positioned within the shell and a pair of communication pipes each including an inlet receiving exhaust gas from the mixing chamber. Each communication pipe includes an outlet providing exhaust to the second chamber. Each of the communication pipes further includes a Helmholtz opening positioned downstream of the mixing chamber. The Helmholtz openings are open to the first chamber.

An exhaust device (108) for a vehicle is provided. The exhaust device (108) includes an outer shell (202), an inlet (206) to receive exhaust gases, an outlet (208), an inner shell (204) received within the outer shell (202), a pair of partition walls (216) and a Helmholtz neck (220). The inner shell (204) defines an inner volume (210). A plurality of first circumferential openings (212) extending through the inner shell (204) fluidly communicates the inlet (206) with the inner volume (210). A plurality of second circumferential openings (214) extending through the inner shell (204) fluidly communicates the outlet (208) with the inner volume (210). The pair of partition walls (216) is disposed between the inner shell (204) and the outer shell (202). The pair of partition walls (216), the inner shell (204) and the outer shell (202) define a Helmholtz chamber (218) therebetween. The partition walls (216) seal the Helmholtz chamber (218) from the inlet (206) and the outlet (208). The Helmholtz neck (220) is disposed on the inner shell (204) or one of the pair of partition walls (216).

A muffler includes a housing defining a first chamber, a second chamber and a third chamber. The muffler includes at least a pair of nested protrusions in communication with an inlet. The pair of nested protrusions is coupled to a respective surface of a pair of plates disposed in the housing such that one of the pair of nested protrusions is spaced apart from and opposite another of the pair of nested protrusions to define a tortuous path that terminates at an outlet defined along an outer circumference. The first chamber is downstream from the pair of plates. The muffler includes a first tube fluidly coupled to the first chamber to direct the exhaust gases from the first chamber to the second chamber. The muffler includes a second tube fluidly coupled to the second chamber to direct the exhaust gases from the second chamber to the third chamber.

A muffler for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a muffler housing with a peripheral wall which extends longitudinally in the direction of a housing longitudinal axis. At least one base wall is surrounded by the peripheral wall or/and retained on the peripheral wall and delimits a chamber in the muffler housing. At least one base wall opening is surrounded by an opening edge region which is bent at an essentially plane base wall region of the base wall essentially in the direction of the housing longitudinal axis. The at least one base wall opening receives an exhaust pipe with a press fit in at least one base wall.

An acoustic damper includes a low porosity layer section and a housing. The low porosity layer section is formed in a liner of a gas turbine combustor and has an arrangement of elongated generally S-shaped slots formed therein. The housing has a plurality of feed apertures. The housing is coupled to the low porosity layer section thereby defining a cavity such that air outside the housing is configured to flow through the apertures and through the elongated generally S-shaped slots in the low porosity layer section, thereby transforming acoustic energy into thermal energy and aiding in providing an acoustic dampening effect for the gas turbine combustor during operation thereof.

A muffler for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes a muffler housing having a peripheral wall elongated along a longitudinal housing axis. The muffler has an end wall on each axial end region of the peripheral wall and a muffler insert, surrounded by the peripheral wall and supported on the peripheral wall. A retaining wall extends substantially in the direction of the longitudinal housing axis and a first exhaust-gas routing pipe is positioned with a first end region engaging in an opening in the peripheral wall and is secured to the peripheral wall and retained with a second end region on the retaining wall. The first exhaust-gas routing pipe is retained in its second end region on the retaining wall by force closure or interlocking.

A sound attenuator has an inner pipe (12) with expansion sections (121) of enlarged diameter corresponding to the constriction sections (141) of an outer pipe (14). The expansion sections (121) in pairs axially delimit an intermediate inner pipe section (122) containing a wall opening (18) and having a reduced diameter relative to the expansion sections (121). The inner surface of the outer pipe (14) in each of its constriction sections (141) is connected to the outer surface of the inner pipe (12) in its respective corresponding expansion section (121). A method of manufacturing such a sound attenuator (10) also is provided and uses internal high-pressure forming.

A combustor component of a combustor for combusting fuel to produce a combustion gas includes a combustion cylinder forming a passage for the combustion gas, a first acoustic device which internally includes a first cavity communicating with the passage via a first through hole formed in the combustion cylinder, a second acoustic device which is located on a radially outer side of the first acoustic device so as to cover the first acoustic device, and internally includes a second cavity communicating with the passage via a second through hole formed in the combustion cylinder, and a first communication passage causing the first cavity and an outer space of the combustion cylinder to communicate with each other without via the first through hole and the second cavity.

A vacuum clear and an electric motor module (100) therefor are provided. The electric motor module (100) includes an outer casing (1) provided with an air inlet (10) at a front side thereof and an air outlet (11) at a rear side thereof; an electric motor assembly (2) arranged in the outer casing (1), and cooperating with the outer casing (1) to define an air passage in communication with the air inlet (10) and the air outlet (11); and a silencer (3) arranged at the air inlet (10), defining at least one resonant cavity therein, and the at least one resonant cavity having a side wall provided with a throat in communication with the resonant cavity.
