In a device for noise configuration in a motor vehicle which has an internal combustion engine with at least two gas conduits connected to different cylinders of the engine, the gas conduits are interconnected by means of a cross-flow section formed by a housing which encloses the gas conduits and which has at least two chambers in each of which one of the gas conduits is disposed, each of the gas conduits being in communication with the respective chamber by which it is enclosed by means of a respective cross-flow opening and the two chambers being in communication with one another by means of at least one cross-flow opening which is remote from the cross-flow openings of the gas conduits so as to provide for a phase shift of the sound waves of the gas flowing through the housing.

Device for modulating noise in a motor vehicle

In a device for establishing noise in a motor vehicle, including a housing having an inlet space, which is in communication via an inlet line with a gas-carrying part of an internal combustion engine arranged in the motor vehicle, and an outlet space, which is acoustically coupled by means of an outlet line to an interior space of the vehicle or the space surrounding the vehicle, the inlet space is separated from the outlet space at least by an acoustically substantially inactive wall. Arranged inside the housing is a sound transmission device, which has vibratable elements, one arranged in the inlet space and onother arranged in the outlet space and connected to each other by a curved connecting element, which is mounted on the acoustically inactive wall, for the transmission of sounds introduced through the inlet line into the inlet space to the outlet space.

Device for establishing noise in a motor vehicle

A device for noise structuring in a motor vehicle has a plurality of gas-carrying lines connected to an internal combustion engine. At least two of the gas-carrying lines are acoustically linked together by at least one connection.

Device for noise structuring in a motor vehicle

A device for noise configuration in a motor vehicle has a hollow body which is divided into at least two spaces. One space is connected to a gas-carrying part of an internal combustion engine arranged in the motor vehicle, and the other space is coupled acoustically to an interior and/or to an engine space of the motor vehicle and/or to the space surrounding the motor vehicle. The hollow body is divided into the two spaces by an essentially acoustically inactive wall. A vibrational element, which extends into both spaces, is arranged within the hollow body.
