  • Patent number: 10626780
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a manifold for receiving exhausts from a multi-cylindrical internal combustion engine. The internal combustion engine has such a firing order that the riser in the manifold receives exhausts from two cylinders during an overlapping stage, simultaneously via an inlet opening arranged upstream and from an inlet opening arranged downstream in the riser. The riser comprises a substantially constant cross sectional area, except in one area, which is located in a position in connection with the inlet opening arranged downstream of the two inlet openings, receiving exhausts simultaneously. Said area has a geometry facilitating receipt and flow of exhausts in the predetermined direction in the riser, on occasions when the two inlet openings receive exhausts simultaneously.

  • Publication number: 20190316508
    Abstract: The invention relates to a flow distribution plate associated with an engine exhaust gas aftertreatment device, wherein the plate is perforated and is adapted to be arranged at an inlet to an exhaust gas purifying unit to improve the flow distribution of exhaust gas into the purifying unit. The flow distribution plate is curved in relation to the inlet, such that a more uniform flow velocity distribution is achieved over the inlet. The invention also relates to an engine exhaust gas aftertreatment device and a vehicle comprising such an engine exhaust gas aftertreatment device.
