  • Patent number: 11484847
    Abstract: A mixer assembly unit, for an exhaust system exhaust gas treatment unit of an internal combustion engine, mixes exhaust gas discharged by the internal combustion engine with reactant. A mixing section (12), downstream in relation to a reactant release device (14), mixes exhaust gas, flowing in an exhaust gas flow direction, with reactant. The mixing section includes a core flow duct (34), extending in a direction of a mixing section longitudinal axis (L), through which a first exhaust gas partial stream (T1) flows. A second exhaust gas partial stream (T2) flows through a jacket flow duct (36) surrounding the core flow duct and separated from the core flow duct by an inner wall (30). The reactant release device releases reactant into the core flow duct or/and into the first exhaust gas partial stream. A mixer (38) is provided at an upstream end area (22) of the mixing section.

  • Patent number: 9074522
    Abstract: A four-way exhaust gas valve has a permanent inlet, a permanent outlet, a selectable inlet, a selectable outlet and a pivotable valve flap. The pivotable valve flap is arranged for switching between a first mode of operation, in which exhaust gas entering through the permanent inlet is guided directly to the permanent outlet, and a second mode of operation, in which exhaust gas entering through the permanent inlet is discharged through the selectable outlet and exhaust gas re-entering through the selectable inlet is discharged through the permanent outlet.
