Vehicle exhaust evacuation system
A vehicle exhaust evacuation system includes an adapter secured to an end of a vehicle tailpipe and a nozzle assembly secured to the end of a flexible hose for carrying vehicle exhaust outside of a building. The nozzle assembly has an aluminum cartridge removably secured in a rubber boot. Magnet assemblies are secured to the aluminum cartridge. Openings in the adapter allow ambient air to flow over the magnet assemblies to lengthen the life of the magnets.
EXHAUST SENSOR MODULE SHIELD
An exhaust sensor module assembly has a sensor module and a shield. The shield is shaped to receive the module. The shield has a first mounting leg and a first flange extending from a first end of a base plate, and a second mounting leg and a second flange extending from a second end of the base plate. The shield is rotationally symmetric about an axis extending through and normal to the base plate.
CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY WITH AT LEAST ONE CONNECTOR AND AT LEAST ONE MEDIA LINE
Connector assembly, and/or motor-vehicle connector assembly, with at least one connector and at least one media line connected to the connector. The media line is electrically heated, a heat-conducting element being arranged in the transition region between connector and media line. The heat-conducting element extends with a first heat-conducting section into the media line and with a second heat-conducting section into the connector. By means of the electric heating of the media line, the heat-conducting element is heated, and/or indirectly heated, and in particular is heated and/or indirectly heated as far as the region of the connector.
DUAL PURPOSE CLAMP FOR SECURING AFTERTREATMENT HOUSING JOINTS
An apparatus comprises a housing comprising a housing first portion and a housing second portion. The housing first portion comprises a first joint portion overlapping a second joint portion of the housing second portion so as to form a housing joint. A clamp is positioned on the housing joint and comprises a base portion. A first surface of the base portion is positioned on the housing joint. A plurality of legs extend from the base portion towards the housing each of which are spaced from each other around the housing joint. A plurality of flange segments extend from each side of the base portion away from the housing. A band is positioned on a second surface of the base portion opposite the first surface and around the clamp. The band is positioned between the plurality of flange segments and operatively coupled to the housing via the clamp.
Insulation systems and devices
An insulation system for an aftertreatment system includes a first insulating element including at least one slit, and a second insulating element including a plurality of fingers extending from opposing sides of an aperture. The second insulating element is couplable to the first insulating element, and when the second insulating element is coupled to the first insulating element, the plurality of fingers overlap the at least one slit.
CONVEYOR UNIT FOR CONVEYING A LIQUID
The invention relates to a conveyor unit for conveying a liquid, comprising a distributor block made of plastic for the liquid-conducting connection of at least one component for conveying the liquid, the distributor block comprising at least one metallic clamping element which encloses the distributor block at least in some regions on the outside.
Exhaust clamp and method
An assembly is provided including a clamp comprising a band having an annular groove defined therein. The annular groove is defined between a pair of curved band surface sections joined to a substantially flat band surface section when the clamp is viewed in cross-section. The assembly also includes a substantially cylindrical body having an axis. A flared flange extends radially outwardly from the cylindrical body. A retaining clip extends from the flared flange. The band clamp is secured to the conduit such that the flared flange of the conduit is positioned within the band, and the retaining clip of the conduit is secured to the band.
DUAL FUNCTION MANIFOLD ASSEMBLY INCORPORATING A DETACHABLE CATALYTIC CONVERTER
A replacement kit for use with a motor vehicle that was originally equipped with an exhaust system including an exhaust manifold and a catalytic converter welded thereto. The replacement kit includes a replacement catalytic converter arranged for use during use of the motor vehicle on public roads. Rather than welding, the replacement catalytic converter attaches to the exhaust manifold using a clamp to form a gas-tight seal. The clamp is arranged to move from the closed position to an open position to enable disengagement of the replacement catalytic converter from the exhaust manifold and substitution of a bypass pipe in place of the replacement catalytic converter to increase performance characteristics of the vehicle during off-road use.
Exhaust tail trim for vehicle
An exhaust tail trim for a vehicle capable of being manufactured in various colors and having advantages of improving aesthetic sense, improving sense of integrated design and improving merchantability of a vehicle may include a heat pipe assembly disposed at an outside of an exhaust pipe through which exhaust gas is discharged; and a trim cover disposed at an end portion of the exhaust pipe and located at an outside of the heat pipe assembly, where the trim cover is made of synthetic resin.
Mixer, exhaust aftertreatment component, exhaust aftertreatment system and vehicle
A mixer, an exhaust aftertreatment component, an exhaust aftertreatment system and a vehicle in which the mixer comprises: an inlet cover, providing an inlet space; an outlet cover, providing an outlet space; and a connecting pipe part, comprising a gas inlet inside the inlet space, a gas outlet inside the outlet space, and an injection inlet; wherein the connecting pipe part comprises a conical section and a pipe section connected downstream to the conical section, the conical section is located inside the inlet space, a side wall of the conical section comprises a plurality of openings distributed along a circumferential direction, the gas inlet comprises the plurality of openings, and a swirling structure is provided on the plurality of openings.
