Abstract: Pipe section running along a curve, intended for use in a muffler, comprising two hollow-formed molded parts which are mirror-symmetrical in relation to the radial plane of the curve and which have connected thereto a flat outside edge running in the radial plane along the outside of the curve, which flat outside edges are placed on each other so that the molded parts together form the pipe section, a third flat part being placed at the position of the radial plane between the two molded parts in such a way that a curved edge of said third flat part is situated between the two flat outside edges of the molded parts and is fastened to said outside edges.

Abstract: An exhaust system structure and method comprising two or more silencers which are placed in series and are each provided with a tubular section, the edges of which are in each case attached to a transverse plate which marks the end of the section in question, and each tubular section is provided with sound-damping internal parts, two tubular sections with different cross-sections being mounted one behind the other, making use of a transverse plate, the external dimensions of which are related to the cross-sectional dimensions of the tubular section with the largest cross-section and provided with an opening, the dimensions of which are related to the cross-sectional dimensions of the tubular section with the smallest cross-section, in which exhaust system the transverse plate is attached to the edges of the two tubular sections by means of seamed roll joints.
