    Patent number: 9540995
    Abstract: An exhaust valve assembly for use in an exhaust system includes a body region and an auxiliary region. The body region has first and second ends and defines a longitudinal axis defined between the ends. The body region has an interior surface terminating at the ends and defines a flow path along the axis and an opening. The auxiliary region is coupled to the body region about the opening. The auxiliary region has at least one wall that defines a space in communication with the opening outside the flow path. The exhaust valve assembly further includes a shaft coupled to the wall of the auxiliary region and a vane coupled to the shaft. The vane is movable between an open position with the vane disposed entirely within the auxiliary region and a closed position with at least a portion of the vane disposed in the body region intersecting the axis.
