Abstract
The catalytic converter apparatus has at least one element box which extends in a longitudinal direction and which has a first pair of first side walls which lie opposite one another, and a second pair of second side walls which lie opposite one another, and two open end sides which lie opposite one another in the longitudinal direction. A plurality of catalytic converter plates are arranged in the element box, which catalytic converter plates are oriented parallel to the first side walls, merely one part of the side walls having a rail which extends transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction on at least one of the end sides, on which rail the catalytic converter plates are supported. As a result, the flow properties of the element box are improved and the risk of dust deposits is avoided.
