  • Patent number: 11300027
    Abstract: The invention relates to mixer device (52) for mixing and an additive to the exhaust gas flow from a combustion engine. The mixer device has an additive injection means (1) and a conduit (2) with an inlet opening and an outlet opening. The conduit (2) has a widened portion (5) between the inlet opening and the outlet opening. The additive injection means (1) is located in the widened portion (5) for injecting the additive into the widened portion. The widened portion (5) at the location of the additive injection means (1) defines an injection width (W) being the distance from the additive injection means (1) to the opposite part (6) of the conduit (2). The injection width (W) is larger than the maximum width (W1) of the conduit (2) adjacent the inlet opening. According to the invention, the cross sectional area of the conduit (2) at the location of the additive injection means (1) is smaller than 1.2 times the cross sectional area of the conduit (2) adjacent the inlet opening.
