A line element includes an inner element, an outer element surrounding the inner element, and a damping element arranged between the inner element and the outer element. The damping element can be made, for example, of knitted wire fabric or a stripwound hose. The damping element can be made in particular of a more easily wearing material than the outer element and/or the inner element, for example of copper.

An intake manifold is provided. A first inlet is structured to receive pressurized intake air from a turbocharger. A second inlet is structured to receive exhaust gas recirculation gas from an exhaust gas recirculation system. A third inlet is structured to receive fuel from a fuel line. A plurality of outlets are structured to be fluidly coupled to an engine. An intake manifold passage extends between each of the first, second, and third inlets, and the plurality of outlets. The intake manifold passage is shaped so as to cause at least two reversals in flow direction of each of the intake air, the exhaust gas recirculation gas, and the fuel through the intake manifold passage so as to improve mixing of each of the intake air, the exhaust gas recirculation gas, and the fuel.

A road vehicle comprising: a passenger compartment; an internal combustion engine; an exhaust system, which releases into the atmosphere the gases generated by the combustion, is connected to the internal combustion engine, and ends with at least one silencer having at least one outlet pipe; and an exhaust noise transmission device, which is provided with a transmission conduit, which originates close to the outlet pipe of the silencer, ends in the area of a wall of the passenger compartment, and is provided, on the inside, with at least one insulating element, which is arranged inside the transmission conduit so as to tightly seal the transmission conduit.

An exhaust duct assembly for conveying exhaust gases emanating from a combustion zone to atmosphere is disclosed. The assembly includes: an exhaust gas outlet for exhausting exhaust gas into the atmosphere; and an acoustic duct portion located upstream of the exhaust gas outlet, the acoustic duct portion having a peripheral wall defining a through-passage arranged and constructed to promote propagation of sound there-through. The acoustic duct portion has a length in a flow direction that is at least 50% of an average hydraulic diameter of the through-passage.

Provided is an exhaust fumes reduction device for an internal combustion engine. The device reduces the generation of exhaust fumes and improves output and fuel efficiency by smoothing the discharge flow of exhaust gas in a state additionally mounted at the end of an exhaust line of an internal combustion engine. The exhaust fumes reduction device includes; a housing pipe connected to the end of the exhaust port to discharge exhaust gas; a vortex pipe mounted inside the housing pipe to increase the speed of the exhaust gas introduced into the housing pipe and discharge the exhaust gas spirally; and an external pipe mounted on the outside of the housing pipe and in communication with the housing pipe to allow the outside air to flow in and to assist the smooth discharge of exhaust gas discharged to the housing pipe.

An exhaust manifold comprises a plurality of exhaust intake conduits structured to be fluidly coupled to an engine and receive exhaust gas from a corresponding cylinder of the engine. At least one exhaust intake conduit provides a reduction in an exhaust intake conduit cross-sectional area from an inlet to an outlet. A plurality of bends are each defined by a respective one of the exhaust intake conduit outlets. An exhaust intake manifold is fluidly coupled to the exhaust intake manifold and defines an exhaust intake manifold flow axis. Each of the plurality of bends is shaped so as to define n angle of approach of exhaust gas flowing therethrough. A first angle of approach of the first bend relative to the exhaust intake manifold flow axis is smaller than a second angle of approach of an inner second bend.

An emission module for treating exhaust gas including a housing, a first catalyst substrate positioned within the housing and having an inlet end, the first catalyst substrate defining a plurality of flow passages extending longitudinally from the inlet end, and a first restrictor plate positioned at the inlet end of the first catalyst substrate to block exhaust flow through a first portion of the plurality of flow passages while allowing exhaust flow through the remainder of the plurality of flow passages.

A pulse exhaust pipe for use with diesel engines an end of the pulse exhaust pipe is in communication with eight cylinders, and another end is in communication with two turbochargers; the pulse exhaust pipe includes three exhaust pipe sections which are separated from each other, each exhaust pipe section discharging to a turbocharger independently, wherein a first exhaust pipe section is in communication with a first and second cylinder, while a second exhaust pipe section is in communication with a third to a sixth cylinder, and a third exhaust pipe section is in communication with a seventh and eighth cylinder. The pulse exhaust pipe may prevent the backward flow of exhaust gas and inlet air back flow, thus increasing inflation efficiency and improving the uniformity of each cylinder. Also provided is a diesel engine installed with said pulse exhaust pipe.
