Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de purification des gaz d'échappement, lequel permet de maintenir de façon sûre un corps de traitement des gaz sur une nappe de maintien, cette dernière étant peu susceptible d'avoir des fissures ou de subir des affaissements, et lequel permet d'empêcher les fuites de gaz d'échappement. Plus spécifiquement, ce dispositif de purification des gaz d'échappement se caractérise en ce qu'il est constitué d'un corps de traitement des gaz d'échappement de forme cylindrique et possédant des parties angles sur les côtés; d'un boîtier recevant le corps de traitement des gaz d'échappement et constitué d'un corps tubulaire possédant sur sa surface interne des partie angles; et d'une nappe de maintien insérée entre le corps de traitement des gaz d'échappement et le boîtier et constituée de fibres inorganiques. Le nombre de parties angles, entre 3 et 6, situées sur les côtés du corps de traitement des gaz d'échappement et sur la paroi interne du boîtier est identique. Le corps de traitement des gaz est logé dans le boîtier de façon que les parties angles sur ses côtés correspondent aux parties angles sur la surface interne du boîtier. Le rayon de courbure en section transversale perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale des parties angles sur les côtés du corps de traitement des gaz d'échappement est supérieur au rayon de courbure en section transversale perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale des parties angles de la surface interne du boîtier.
