Exhaust-gas aftertreatment device

摘要

The present invention relates to an exhaust-gas aftertreatment device for an internal combustion engine, wherein said device (1) comprises a catalytic converter (2), wherein the catalytic converter (2) comprises a tubular member (3) which defines a volume (4) within which a catalytic converter substrate (5) is located, and wherein the volume (4) with the catalytic converter substrate (5) communicates with an inlet portion (6) for receiving exhaust gas emissions from the internal combustion engine and with an outlet portion (7) for discharging said exhaust gas emissions after catalytic conversion thereof in said volume. The device (1) comprises a pipe member (8) within said tubular member (3) of the catalytic converter (2), which pipe member connects the inlet portion (6) with the volume (4) in said tubular member (3) and guides the exhaust gas emissions from said inlet portion in a first direction of flow (A), and said pipe member (8) opens downstream into a deflector means (9) which deflects the exhaust gas emissions into the volume (4) of the tubular member (3) of the catalytic converter (2) in a second direction of flow (B) other than said first direction of flow (A) ( Fig. 1 ).
