An exhaust apparatus includes a chamber disposed below an engine, an inlet pipe guiding exhaust gas from an exhaust pipe to the chamber, a tail pipe discharging the exhaust gas from the chamber to an outside, a first partition wall partitioning an inside of the chamber to a pair of left and right spaces, and a second partition wall partitioning one of the left and right spaces to a pair of front and rear spaces. Another of the left and right spaces is a first expansion chamber into which the inlet pipe enters. A rear space of the front and rear spaces is a second expansion chamber disposed downstream of the first expansion chamber. A front space of the front and rear spaces is a third expansion chamber disposed downstream of the second expansion chamber, and the tail pipe enters into the front space.

A vehicle exhaust system includes a tubular component having an inner surface and an outer surface such that the inner surface defines a primary exhaust gas flow path and wherein the tubular component extends along a central axis from an inlet end to an outlet end. The tubular component comprises at least one ridge along the central axis. The at least one ridge extends at least partly along a circumference of the tubular component. Each ridge includes a first portion angularly devoid of apertures and extending inwardly from the tubular component and a second portion disposed downstream of the first portion. The second portion is angularly devoid of apertures and extends inwardly from the tubular component. The tubular component also includes a plurality of spaced apertures positioned along a portion of the circumference of the tubular component and downstream of the second portion.

A muffler assembly for an exhaust system is in fluid communication with a collector via an exhaust conduit. The muffler assembly includes a primary pipe, a valve, a secondary pipe, a tuner tube and a bleed port. The primary pipe extends through an enclosed volume of the muffler. The valve is operable to restrict flow through the primary pipe. When a standing wave is present, a resonance length is defined by a length of the exhaust system that extends from the collector to the valve. The tuner tube includes an open tuner tube end in fluid communication with the primary pipe and a closed tuner tube end. The tuner tube has a tuner tube length that is substantially one-quarter of the resonance length. The bleed port is formed in the primary pipe, allowing fluid communication with the enclosed volume, and positioned downstream from open tuner tube end.

A muffler includes an exhaust pipe, a shell, and a cover. The exhaust pipe includes communication holes and is configured to allow an exhaust gas to flow through an interior of the exhaust pipe. The shell is disposed outside the communication holes to cover the communication holes. The cover has a tubular shape. The cover is disposed between the exhaust pipe and the shell. The cover is disposed at a distance, which is specified in advance, from the exhaust pipe.

A muffler includes a muffler housing having an exhaust gas inlet port adapted for securing to an exhaust pipe of an automobile so that exhaust gases from an internal combustion engine of the automobile are directed through the muffler housing from the exhaust gas inlet to an exhaust gas outlet. The muffler housing includes a plurality of rigid surfaces that form an exhaust gas pathway including a plurality of turns and lead from the exhaust gas inlet port to the exhaust gas outlet port. A photocatalyst coating is secured to an area of the rigid surfaces, and a light source is secured to the muffler housing and positioned to direct light onto the photocatalyst coating. The exhaust gases come into contact with the photocatalyst coating and reactive species generated by the photocatalyst coating decompose one or more pollutants in the exhaust gas.

A work vehicle includes: a first exhaust pipe to which engine exhaust is sent; and a second exhaust pipe that has an inlet having an outer diameter larger than an outlet of the first exhaust pipe, the outlet of the first exhaust pipe and the inlet of the second exhaust pipe being disposed in proximity such that the outlet of the first exhaust pipe is positioned inside the inlet of the second exhaust pipe; a partition that divides a cross section of the outlet of the first exhaust pipe into a plurality of divided regions when viewed from the flow direction and partitions the adjacent divided regions at intervals.

A vehicle exhaust system includes a tubular component having an inner surface and an outer surface such that the inner surface defines a primary exhaust gas flow path and wherein the tubular component extends along a central axis from an inlet end to an outlet end. The tubular component comprises at least one ridge along the central axis. The at least one ridge extends at least partly along a circumference of the tubular component. Each ridge includes a first portion angularly devoid of apertures and extending inwardly from the tubular component and a second portion disposed downstream of the first portion. The second portion is angularly devoid of apertures and extends inwardly from the tubular component. The tubular component also includes a plurality of spaced apertures positioned along a portion of the circumference of the tubular component and downsteam of the second portion.

An air exhausting device includes a muffler internally divided into a plurality of chambers by a separator, an inlet pipe that couples an exhaust pipe of an engine to the muffler, and an outlet pipe that is a path to discharge an exhaust gas inside the muffler to outside air. The muffler is configured of an expansion chamber to which a downstream end of the inlet pipe opens, and a resonator chamber communicated with only the expansion chamber via a plurality of resonator pipes. Any of or both of lengths and thicknesses of the plurality of resonator pipes are different.

A muffler comprises a plurality of tubes disposed within an inner chamber. The holes are at least partially punched through the tubes so that hanging chads extend into the tubes at each hole. The tubes form a serpentine flow-path through the chamber through which exhaust flows. One or more diffusion brackets are also disposed within the chamber and downstream from one or more tube outlets.

An exhaust silencer includes a housing defining an interior and a tube disposed in the interior and defining an opening. A gas-flow deflector is configured to heat shield an interior wall of the housing from exhaust gases exiting the opening. The deflector has a deflector plate and a riser. The riser has a first portion connected to the interior wall and a second portion connected to a backside of the deflector plate to suspend the deflector plate in the interior such that the backside is completely spaced from the interior wall to form an insulating airgap therebetween.
