20150240689 | EXHAUST SYSTEM MIXER WITH IMPACTOR - A mixer for a vehicle exhaust system includes an outer shell having an inlet end and an outlet end, an upstream baffle positioned adjacent the inlet end to initiate swirling of engine exhaust gases, and a downstream baffle positioned adjacent the outlet end. An impactor extends between the upstream and downstream baffles, and is spaced radially inwardly from an inner surface of the outer shell by a gap. | 08-27-2015 |
20150159787 | THIN WALL WELDING - An exhaust component assembly includes a first pipe that defines a center axis and has a first end, and a second pipe that has a second end inserted into the first end of the first pipe such that an outer surface of the second end is in contact with an inner surface of the first end. At least one axial weld connects the first and second ends together. | 06-11-2015 |
20150113967 | DIFFUSER PLATE - A diffuser plate for a vehicle exhaust system comprises a body having a primary opening and a plurality of secondary openings circumferentially spaced apart from each other about the primary opening. In one example, the diffuser plate is positioned between an exhaust manifold and a catalytic converter. Exhaust gas from the exhaust manifold flows through the primary and secondary openings in the diffuser plate to provide a thorough mixed flow that is evenly distributed across an inlet to a catalyst substrate, and also enable an oxygen sensor to accurately measure engine cylinder exhaust gas chemistry. | 04-30-2015 |
