Abstract:
A manufacturing method of a sub-muffler includes a rectangular tubular body shaping step, a preliminary shaping step, and a diameter reduction shaping step. In the rectangular tubular body shaping step, a plate material is bent and a rectangular tubular body having a rectangular shape in cross section is thereby formed. In the preliminary shaping step, ends of the rectangular tubular body are preliminarily formed and the end parts of the tubular body are thereby formed so that its cross-sectional shape becomes a circular shape. In the diameter reduction shaping step, the diameters of the ends of the rectangular tubular body are reduced.
Abstract:
A muffler for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, comprises a housing comprising a shell having an inner wall, an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe, the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe extending into an inner space of the housing, for conveying an exhaust gas stream into and out of the inner space of the housing, at least one baffle arranged in the inner space of the housing, the baffle comprising a baffle plate, the baffle plate having a circumference, and a baffle lip arranged at the circumference of the baffle plate, the baffle lip engaging the inner wall of the shell and having an end portion, wherein the end portion of the baffle lip is curved inwardly away from the inner wall of the shell.
Abstract:
A mounting structure of a variable valve for a dual exhaust system may include a muffler, at a front end of which is connected a first inlet pipe, and at a rear end of which is connected a first outlet pipe, and a Helmholtz Resonator, at the front end of which is connected a second inlet pipe, and at a rear end of which is connected a second outlet pipe, in which a variable valve which is opened and closed by an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) of a car is disposed on the second outlet pipe connected to the Helmholtz Resonator.
Abstract:
The present invention in one or more embodiments provides a muffler, where the muffler includes a housing extending along a longitudinal direction, and a resonator device supported on the housing and including a body, the body including a first portion and a second portion spaced apart from and to be in fluid communication with the first portion, the fluid communication being positioned in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction, at least one of the first portion and second portion being of a closed-loop in cross-section. The muffler of the present invention may effectively enhance reduction of low frequency noise without having to necessarily increase package volume.
Abstract:
A hybrid valve assembly for an exhaust system includes an exhaust tube having a bore defining an exhaust flow path. A vane is mounted within the bore and is moveable between an open position and a closed position. A resilient member biases the vane toward the closed position. A valve actuator has an ON position where movement of the vane is actively controlled by the valve actuator and an OFF position where movement of the vane is passively controlled by exhaust gas flow.
Abstract:
Idle relief mufflers are configured to discharge exhaust gases from an outboard motor to atmosphere surrounding the outboard motor when an internal combustion engine of the outboard motor is operated at idle and at low speeds. The idle relief mufflers comprise a housing having an open interior, an inlet port configured to convey the exhaust gases to the open interior, and an outlet port configured to discharge the exhaust gases from the open interior. An exhaust grommet is connected to the outlet port. The exhaust grommet comprises a body that is configured to engage with a cowl of the outboard motor and an extension that extends through the outlet port and protrudes into the open interior. The extension and the body together define a through-bore that is configured to convey the exhaust gases from the open interior to the atmosphere.
Abstract:
An engine exhaust-driven heating device generates a high volume, steady stream of hot gas by passing an exhaust stream from a gasoline, propane, natural gas, or combustible fueled internal combustion engine through a catalyst that reduces the atmospheric emissions of the stream and liberates the energy of the pollutants in the stream. The device then combines the catalytic-treated air stream with a fresh air stream to further react with remaining pollutants and generate additional heat. The hot gas may be used to dry a variety of surfaces and, when integrated without other components typically found in surface drying equipment, provides an ideal system for use in a variety of moderate- to large-sized portable surface drying equipment. The heating device provides a reliable and continuous heat source and, when integrated into a controlled delivery system, dries the moisture from a surface faster and more effectively than prior art heating devices.
Abstract:
An exhaust muffler device for an combustion engine includes: a first expansion chamber into which exhaust gas from a combustion engine flows; a second expansion chamber disposed downstream of the first expansion chamber; a resonance chamber that is disposed adjacent to the first expansion chamber and communicates with an exhaust passage; a discharge passage through which the exhaust gas that flows into the resonance chamber is discharged to the outside; and an exhaust valve disposed in a second partition wall between the first expansion chamber and the resonance chamber. The exhaust valve opens when pressure in the first expansion chamber attains a value greater than a predetermined value.
Abstract:
An acoustic panel is provided that includes a first layer, a perforated second layer, a core and a noise attenuating feature. The core forms a chamber between the first and the second layers. The noise attenuating feature projects partially into the chamber. The noise attenuating feature is formed integral with the first layer, the second layer and/or the core.
Abstract:
A structure of an exhaust system for a cylinder deactivation (CDA) engine may include first, second and third baffles which are coupled in a main muffler, and divide an interior of the main muffler into first, second, third and fourth spaces respectively, a connecting pipe which connects the second space and the third space of the main muffler, and has a passage in which the exhaust gas flows, a first valve coupled to the passage of the connecting pipe to open and close the passage of the connecting pipe, and a second valve openably and closably coupled to the second baffle disposed between the second space and the third space, wherein the first baffle coupled between the first space and the second space, and the third baffle coupled between the third space and the fourth space, have a plurality of holes so that the exhaust gas flows therethrough.
