The invention relates to a silencer (1) for an exhaust gas installation of an internal combustion engine, particularly of a motor vehicle. Said silencer comprises a housing (2), with a circumferential shell (3) closed in the peripheral direction (5) and with one end base (6) at each of two longitudinal ends which are spaced apart from one another in an axial direction (4), and a silencer insert (15) which is arranged in said housing (2) and has at least one inlet pipe (8) for exhaust gas and at least one outlet pipe (10) for exhaust gas, said shell (3) being segmented in the peripheral direction (5) and having at least one shell-segment (11, 12) that comprises at least one opening (7, 9) into which one of the pipes (8, 10) is inserted from the inside. A compact structure can be obtained by means of the segmented shell (3) having at least one inlet shell-segment (11) and one outlet shell-segment (12), by said inlet shell-segment (11) having at least one inlet opening (7) into which such an inlet pipe (8) is inserted from the inside, and by said outlet shell-segment (12) having at least one outlet opening (9) into which such an outlet pipe (10) is inserted from the inside. |
