The present invention relates to an exhaust gas treatment device () and an exhaust system () having such an exhaust gas treatment device (), wherein the exhaust system () has at least one exhaust-gas-conducting exhaust gas feed line (), which is attached to an inlet region () of the exhaust gas treatment device (). Improved mixing of the exhaust gas and a space-saving configuration result if the exhaust gas treatment device () has at least one inlet () which is open towards the inlet region () and if a mixing element () is provided, which connects the inlet region () to a through-flow region () by means of input openings (), wherein at least one first input opening () faces a first side () of the inlet region () and at least one second input opening () faces a second side () of the inlet region ().

Exhaust gas treatment device

A flanged joint () of an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, especially of a motor vehicle, is provided for fastening a tubular body () of the exhaust system to another component (). The flanged joint includes a tube bell () formed at the end area of the tubular body () as well as a ring-shaped flange (), which surrounds the tubular body () on a side of the tube bell () facing away from the other component () and which has a plurality of fastening sites () for connection to the other component ().

Flanged joint

The invention relates to a throttle arrangement for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine having a throttle valve for throttling a stream of exhaust gas flowing through a pipe and having a restoring spring which prestresses the throttle valve into a closed position. The throttle valve is pivotable about a pivot axis in the pipe between the closed position [and the open position] and the restoring spring is supported on the valve end on a lever fixedly connected to the throttle valve and is supported at the pipe end on a bearing for accommodating a shaft extending coaxially with the pivot axis. The restoring spring is adapted to support the spring forces on the pipe end in an essentially symmetrical manner with respect to a plane of symmetry that extends perpendicular to the pivot axis and is in the area of the support on the valve end.

Throttle arrangement and exhaust system equipped with same

The present invention relates to an exhaust system for an internal combustion engine, in particular in a motor vehicle, having an exhaust line carrying exhaust gas away from the internal combustion engine and having a fuel injector for injecting fuel into the exhaust line. The fuel injector is mounted on the exhaust line via a mounting device. This mounting device has a receiving body into which the fuel injector is inserted and which is mounted on the exhaust line via a disk-shaped flange. To reduce the risk of overheating of the fuel injector, the flange is mounted on the receiving body via a constriction in cross section and/or on the exhaust line via a thermal insulator.

Exhaust system

The present invention relates to a sheet-metal-type part, in particular a muffler bottom having at least one through-opening for a tubular part. The sheet-metal-type part has at least one slot passing through the sheet-metal-type part in an area adjacent to the through-opening. The slot runs essentially in the circumferential direction or runs tangentially to the through-opening.

Sheet-metal-type part

The present invention relates to an exhaust system for an internal combustion engine, having an exhaust line for removing exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine and having a secondary fuel supply for introducing secondary fuel into the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine. To improve the introduction of the secondary fuel into the exhaust, a recirculation device is connected to the exhaust line and to the secondary fuel supply so that the introduction of secondary fuel into the exhaust is accomplished via or through the recirculation device. The recirculation device has a circulation space which receives an exhaust substream from the exhaust line in which the secondary fuel is introduced into the exhaust substream and from which the modified exhaust substream is returned to the exhaust line.
