Abstract

A silencing device for an internal combustion engine includes an expansion chamber which may be implemented with a prechamber, a muffler or the like installed in an exhaust system of the engine. An exhaust pipe connected to the expansion chamber is provided with a double-layer structure consisting of an inner conduit through which exhaust gases flow and an outer conduit which surrounds the inner conduit. An air gap defined between the inner and outer conduits is opened into the expansion chamber at one end and closed at the other end so as to serve as a resonance chamber.
