Abstract
A sealing assembly for a sensor port of a double-walled muffler. The assembly includes at least an outer plate and a washer-type element. The washer-type element has a planar portion provided with an aperture, and a tube portion protrudes from an edge of the aperture. The assembly is mounted on a sensor port provided with a boss fixed to an inner wall of the double muffler wall, and with an opening in an outer wall surrounding the boss. The tube portion is fitted over the boss, and the assembly is fixed to the outer wall. Any radial or lateral movement of the boss relative to the outer wall is able to take place without losing sealing function, due to lateral freedom of movement of the washer-type element relative to the outer plate, and due to the fact that the boss is able to move relative to the tube portion.
