CONTAINER DEVICE ADAPTED TO BE ARRANGED IN AN EXHAUST SYSTEM OF A COMBUSTION ENGINE

摘要

The present invention relates to a container device adapted to being arranged in an exhaust system for a combustion engine. The container device comprises an outer casing (1), a tubular element (4) surrounded by said casing (1), and an exhaust passage for leading the exhaust gases through the container device. Said exhaust passage comprises a first exhaust duct (14) situated externally to the tubular element (4), a second exhaust duct (15) situated internally to the tubular element (4), and a spiral exhaust duct (13) adapted to leading the exhaust gases radially inwards from the first exhaust duct (14) to the second exhaust duct (15). The container device comprises a first guide element (21) fitted in a region (24) which is situated radially internally to the spiral exhaust duct (13) so that exhaust gases flowing out from an outlet aperture (13b) of the spiral exhaust duct (13) are led at least partly round said guide element (21) before they are led into the second exhaust duct (15).
