Abstract

Abstract An elongate core member is disclosed defining indentations therein which afford a fluted interior passage, the walls of the indentations being relatively thin at times defining openings therethrough. The core member is disclosed in a folded configuration enclosed by a housing with a cushioned lining pad separating the core member from the housing. A screen is positioned in the duct which is partially defined by the core, to assure the passage of only particles of minimum size.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 107 words
An exhaust system for an engine, comprising: an elongate metal core member defining a fluted passage to receive exhaust from said engine, said core member defining a folded elongate tube of substantially uniform cross-sectional area, perforated by arcuate gaps transversely defined in the walls thereof and transversely bridged by integral straps of a thickness that is substantially less than the thickness of said tube; a metal housing enclosing said core member and defining an intake port and an exhaust port, said housing defining a space uniformly larger than said core member; and a lining pad of cushionlike material disposed between said core member and said metal housing.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 107 words
An exhaust system for an engine, comprising: an elongate metal core member defining a fluted passage to receive exhaust from said engine, said core member defining a folded elongate tube of substantially uniform cross-sectional area, perforated by arcuate gaps transversely defined in the walls thereof and transversely bridged by integral straps of a thickness that is substantially less than the thickness of said tube; a metal housing enclosing said core member and defining an intake port and an exhaust port, said housing defining a space uniformly larger than said core member; and a lining pad of cushionlike material disposed between said core member and said metal housing.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 39 words
An exhaust system according to claim 1 wherein said passage of said elongate metal core is offset from alignment with said intake port of said metal housing and wherein said metal core member is folded within a single plane.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
An exhaust system according to claim 2 further including a screen member affixed in said housing to receive exhaust from said core member.
