An exhaust gas aftertreatment system includes an introduction housing, a transfer housing, a distributing housing, and a first aftertreatment component. The introduction housing is configured to receive an exhaust gas and a treatment fluid. The transfer housing is coupled to the introduction housing and configured to receive the exhaust gas and the treatment fluid from the introduction housing. The distributing housing is coupled to the transfer housing and configured to receive the exhaust gas and the treatment fluid from the transfer housing. The distributing housing includes a distributing housing first panel and a distributing housing first panel opening. The distributing housing first panel opening extends through the distributing housing first panel. The first aftertreatment component is configured to receive at least a portion of the exhaust gas and the treatment fluid from the distributing housing.

A dosing lance assembly for an exhaust component includes: a housing including: a plate having a first aperture, a pipe having a first pipe end coupled to the plate around the first aperture, a second pipe end, and a second aperture, an endcap coupled to the second pipe end, and an elbow coupled to the pipe around the second aperture; an air conduit having a first air conduit end and a second air conduit end coupled to the elbow, the air conduit separated from the pipe at a location between the plate and the endcap; and a delivery conduit extending within the air conduit and coupled to the elbow.

Systems and methods for reductant delivery in aftertreatment systems for internal combustion engines

A dosing lance assembly for an exhaust component includes: a housing comprising: a plate having a first channel, an endcap having a second channel, and a pipe having a first end coupled to the plate and a second end coupled to the endcap, wherein at least a portion of the pipe is airfoil-shaped; and a delivery conduit having a first end coupled to the plate and a second end coupled to the endcap, such that reductant is flowable from the first channel to the second channel.

An apparatus includes a housing defining an internal volume and structured to house aftertreatment component for reducing constituents of an exhaust gas. A noise reducing component is disposed within the internal volume and structured to extend around at least a portion of the aftertreatment component.

Aftertreatment system including noise reducing components

An SCR system includes at least one catalyst, and an intake conduit. The intake conduit includes an intake conduit first sidewall, at least a portion of which defines a first curvature. An intake conduit second sidewall is coupled to the intake conduit first sidewall so as to define the intake conduit. A catalyst is fluidly coupled to the intake conduit through the intake conduit second sidewall. The intake conduit second sidewall is inclined at a first angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the SCR system, such that an intake conduit second end cross-section of the intake conduit is smaller than an intake conduit first end cross-section. An intake conduit third sidewall is positioned at the intake conduit second end. The intake conduit is structured to produce an even flow split of the exhaust gas through the intake conduit internal volume towards the catalyst.

Aftertreatment system for mixing a reductant in an exhaust gas flowing therethrough

A dosing lance assembly for an exhaust component includes a housing and a delivery conduit. The housing includes a plate, an endcap, and a pipe. The plate has a first channel. The endcap has a second channel. The pipe has a first end coupled to the plate and a second end coupled to the endcap. The delivery conduit has a first end coupled to the plate and a second end coupled to the endcap, such that reductant is flowable from the first channel to the second channel. When the housing is at an ambient temperature, (i) a length of the delivery conduit is greater than (ii) a first distance between a location at which the first end of the pipe is coupled to the plate and a location at which the second end of the pipe is coupled to the endcap.

A strap adjustment mechanism may include a pin with a pin opening that is insertable into a looped portion of an end of a strap. The strap adjustment mechanism may also include a fastener support assembly that has a first member and a second member. The second member is configured to translate along a central axis relative to the first member in response to rotation of the first member. The first member includes a first opening substantially collinear with the central axis of the second member, and the second member includes a second opening substantially collinear with the central axis of the second member. The strap adjustment mechanism further includes a strap attachment member that is insertable through the first and second openings of the first member and the second member. The strap attachment member is configured to engagably couple to the pin via the pin opening.

Strap adjustment mechanism

A system and method for providing a selective catalytic reduction system with a doser mounting system. A mounting plate includes an aperture in a surface with a plurality of fastener brackets coupled to the surface. The fastener brackets are positioned about a peripheral portion of the aperture. The fastener brackets each include an opening for inserting a fastener. The opening is elevated from the surface of the mounting plate. The fasteners each have a fastener head and a fastener shaft positioned in the opening of the fastener brackets. The fastener shaft extends from the opening in a direction having an orthogonal component with respect to the surface of the mounting plate. A doser is coupled to the doser mounting system. The fastener shafts extend through openings in legs of the doser. An injector port of the doser is aligned with the aperture in the mounting plate.

Doser mounting system, components and methods

Systems and methods to selectively control plurality of dosing modules may include receiving data indicative of an exhaust flow rate. An amount of reductant to be dosed may be determined based, at least in part, on the data indicative of the exhaust flow rate. A decomposition delay time may also be determined and a first dosing module and a second dosing module may be selectively activated. The first dosing module may be selectively activated at a first time and the second dosing module is selectively activated at a second time. The second time is based on the first time and the determined decomposition delay time.

Selective dosing module control system

A diesel oxidation catalyst component may include an inlet, an outlet, and a catalyst chamber body in fluid communication with the inlet and the outlet. An angled jacking bolt assembly is configured to secure a diesel oxidation catalyst within a catalyst chamber defined by the catalyst chamber body. In some implementations, a spacing component or a second diesel oxidation catalyst may be included and secured by the angled jacking bolt assembly. The catalyst chamber body may include an access panel assembly that includes an access panel and securing bolts. The access panel assembly may substantially fluidly seal an opening defined by a mount of the catalyst chamber body when the access panel is secured to the mount by the plurality of securing bolts. The opening may be sized to permit removal of the diesel oxidation catalyst from within the catalyst chamber.

Dual fuel diesel oxidation catalyst with removable catalysts

A mounting system for an exhaust system component may include one or more end mounting brackets and one or more intermediary mounting brackets. Each of the one or more end mounting brackets and the one or more intermediary mounting brackets may each include a vertical member, a horizontal member, one or more attachment openings, and an attachment strap configured to secure a component of an exhaust system to the respective end mounting bracket or intermediary mounting bracket. The one or more end mounting brackets and the one or more intermediary mounting brackets may be configured to be selectively attached and detached from a mounting surface via one or more surface attachment members and the one or more attachment openings.
