  • Patent number: 9523304
    Abstract: An exhaust pipe that forms an exhaust flow channel includes a first flow channel member that forms part of the exhaust flow channel, and a second flow channel member connected in series with the first flow channel member, and forms part of the exhaust flow channel. A downstream-side end of the first flow channel member is inserted into an upstream-side end of the second flow channel member. A communication channel that communicates between an inside and an outside of the exhaust pipe is formed between an outer surface of an insertion part of the first flow channel member and an inner surface of an insertion-receiving part of the second flow channel member. The insertion-receiving part is arranged to face higher than a horizontal direction.

  • Publication number: 20150337699
    Abstract: Provided is a muffler having a double pipe portion formed therein in which an end portion of a first tubular member is inserted into a second tubular member from an end portion thereof. A leading end portion of the second tubular member is joined to an outer periphery of the first tubular member. A portion that forms the double pipe portion of the second tubular member comprises a first portion located closer to an end of the first tubular member, and a second portion that is located closer to an end of the second tubular member and that has an enlarged diameter compared with the first portion. A resonance chamber is formed between the first tubular member and the second portion. A communication path that allows communication between an exhaust flow path and the resonance chamber is formed between the first tubular member and the first portion.
