Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a component for an exhaust system with a multi-part housing and at least one therein arranged and each surrounded by a mounting mat catalyst body and / or filter body and a method for producing such a component according to the preamble of the respective independent claim.
  • Catalytic converters and diesel particulate filters have become indispensable for the automotive industry. They typically comprise a housing in which a catalyst body and / or a filter body - e.g. in the form of a ceramic substrate - are arranged.
  • a mounting mat eg an intumescent mat
  • the housing may in this case comprise a plurality of housing parts (for example two housing parts), which are connected to one another after the introduction of the catalyst body and / or filter body surrounded by the mounting mat into the one housing part, e.g. by welding or by mechanical connection.
  • the function of the mounting mat is to keep the catalyst body and / or the filter body in place in the housing, at different temperatures and with different load operation.
  • the catalyst body and / or the filter body must therefore both cold Temperatures (ie, for example, immediately after take-off) as well as at warm temperatures (ie, for a long drive on the highway) on the one hand safely held in place, on the other hand, the mechanical load on the catalyst body and / or the filter body may not be too large be to avoid damage to the catalyst body and / or the filter body.
  • a catalyst body and / or a filter body is wrapped with a mounting mat and then introduced into a first housing part.
  • the housing is assembled and in a further step, the housing parts are connected together, e.g. by welding or by mechanical connection, to prevent the exhaust gases from escaping.
  • Object of the present invention is to propose a component for an exhaust system and a method for producing the same, which do not have the disadvantages mentioned above and in particular reliably enable a tight closure of the housing.
  • the object is achieved with the aid of the component according to the invention for an exhaust system, as characterized by the features of the independent device claim.
  • Advantageous embodiments of the inventive component are the subject of the dependent device claims.
  • the object is achieved by a component for an exhaust system, which comprises means which are designed and arranged such that they after introduction of each of the mounting mat surrounded catalyst body and / or filter body in a first housing part in assembling the first housing part and the prevent further housing parts to the housing, the clamping of the mounting mat between the housing parts.
  • the housing can be reliably sealed or connected, since no parts of the mounting mat can fall between the housing parts, which could affect the tightness of the housing.
  • the means for preventing the clamping of the mounting mat comprise one or more flexible guide plates, which are arranged in the interior of the first housing part, in which is introduced by the mounting mat surrounded catalyst body and / or filter body before the housing parts are assembled.
  • the one or more flexible guide plates protrude from the first housing part in the direction of the housing part / housing parts to be assembled with the first housing part. They prevent parts of the mounting mat from getting between the individual housing parts of the multi-part housing. In this respect, it is ensured that the individual housing parts can be connected tightly together after assembly.
  • wrap the package consisting of catalyst body and / or filter body and the mounting mat with an adhesive tape so that no parts of the mounting mat can get between the individual housing parts of the multi-part housing.
  • the one or more guide plates are made of the same material as the housing parts. Thus, no different materials are necessary in the production and also the extent of heating is similar.
  • the one or more guide plates are fastened to the inner wall of that housing part into which the catalyst body and / or filter body surrounded by the mounting mat is inserted, before the housing parts are assembled.
  • An attachment of the guide plates on the inner wall of the first housing part has the advantage that the guide plates are already prefabricated on the first housing part and not in one additional step in assembling the housing must be introduced. In addition, they prevent that when introducing the surrounding of the mounting mat catalyst body and / or filter body no parts of the mounting mat protrude from the first housing part such that these parts are clamped when assembling the other housing parts between the individual housing parts.
  • the one or more guide plates are fixed to the inner wall of the first housing part by spot welding.
  • the attachment of the guide plates by means of spot welds is a manufacturing technology reliable and less expensive way of fastening the guide plates on the inner wall of the first housing part.
  • other types of attachment eg gluing, welding methods, etc.
  • the component according to the invention comprises two catalyst bodies or two filter bodies, or a catalyst body and a filter body.
  • the last-mentioned combination of a catalyst body and a filter body in a common housing enables the production of combined catalyst / particle filter components.
  • one or more flexible guide plates are used as means for preventing the mounting mat from being arranged in the interior of that housing part into which the catalyst body and / or filter body surrounded by the mounting mat is inserted before the housing parts are assembled.
  • the one or more flexible guide plates project from the housing part in the direction of the housing part to be assembled with this housing part and are pressed against the mounting mat when the housing parts are assembled.
  • the guide plates that are used are made of the same material as the housing parts.
  • the one or more guide plates are fastened to the inner wall of the first housing part.
  • the one or more guide plates on the inner wall of the first housing part by spot welding or other suitable manner (see above) attached or, as described above, clamped without attachment to the first housing part between the mounting mat and the inner wall of the first housing part ,
  • two catalyst body or two filter body, or a catalyst body and a filter body introduced into the first housing part, before the first Housing part assembled with the other housing parts and these are connected to the housing.
  • Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of the inventive component 1 for an exhaust system with a first housing part 10 and a second housing part 11.
  • the two housing parts comprise outwardly projecting flanges 101 and 111, which are assembled into a housing and connected to the respective flanges tightly.
  • the connection can be made eg by welding.
  • Fig. 2 shows component 1 of Fig. 1 on average according to the in Fig. 1 marked line II-II.
  • the upper half of Fig. 2 shows a plan view of the second housing part 11 and the lower half an interior view of the first housing part 10, wherein the catalyst body 30 and the filter body 31, the mounting mat 4, and flexible guide plates 5 are arranged in the first housing part 10.
  • Arrow 2 shows the direction of the exhaust gas flow.
  • the catalyst body 30 and the filter body 31 are wrapped with the mounting mat 4 and then introduced into the interior of the first housing part 10.
  • the previously mounted in the interior of the first housing part 10 flexible Guide plates 5 see Fig. 3 respectively.
  • the mounting mat 4 Prevent parts of the mounting mat 4 from the interior of the housing, which is formed here from the first housing part 10 and the second housing part 11, protrude and between the flanges 101 and 111 of the two housing parts 10 and 11 advised. This also applies to the other side of the housing. This ensures that the two housing parts 10 and 11 can be sealed together. Subsequently, the two housing parts 10 and 11 are sealed together by, for example, the flanges 101 and 111 are welded together.
