  • PASSIVE VALVE AND RESONATOR ASSEMBLY FOR VEHICLE EXHAUST SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20130213731
    Abstract: An exhaust system includes first and second exhaust components with an inter-pipe that fluidly connects an outlet of the first exhaust component to an inlet of the second exhaust component. A passive valve is mounted within the inter-pipe. The second exhaust component defines an internal cavity that is at least partially packed with a high frequency absorption material and cooperates with the passive valve to effectively attenuate low and high frequency noise.

  • Exhaust System
    Publication number: 20130206271
    Abstract: An exhaust system for motor vehicles has a component made from a coated steel sheet. The steel sheet has a thickness of at most 4.5 mm and is formed of a ferritic stainless steel having a chromium content of from 10.5% to 25%, a molybdenum content of from 0 to 2.5%, and a titanium and/or niobium content of from 0.1 to 2% each. The coating of the steel sheet consists essentially of nickel.

  • HYBRID VALVE FOR ATTENUATION OF LOW FREQUENCY NOISE
    Publication number: 20130056083
    Abstract: A hybrid valve assembly for an exhaust system includes an exhaust tube having a bore defining an exhaust flow path. A vane is mounted within the bore and is moveable between an open position and a closed position. A resilient member biases the vane toward the closed position. A valve actuator has an ON position where movement of the vane is actively controlled by the valve actuator and an OFF position where movement of the vane is passively controlled by exhaust gas flow.
