Abstract
Abstract A stress-free exhaust construction for a turbo-supercharger on an engine, having an adjacent wall through which exhaust gases are discharged. A rigid conduit member is connected to and extends away from the supercharger. A second rigid conduit member in alignment with the first conduit extends through the wall. There are cooperating baffles at the adjacent ends of the two conduit members which provide a non-rigid connection between the two conduit members. One of the baffles forms a reservoir which contains a liquid, forming a seal which prevents the escape of exhaust gases.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
138 words
An exhaust construction for a turbo-supercharger on an engine, having a wall adjacent the engine through which exhaust gases are discharged, comprising a first rigid conduit member connected to and extending away from the turbo-supercharger and having an upwardly extending terminal portion, a baffle portion attached to the outer extremity of the said first conduit member forming a reservoir, a liquid in said reservoir, a second rigid conduit member secured to and extending through the wall, the said second conduit member aligned with the said first conduit member for receiving exhaust gases therefrom and transmitting them through the wall, and the entrance end of the second conduit member extending downwardly into the said liquid, whereby to provide a non-rigid connection between the said first and second conduit members and a seal for preventing the escape of exhaust gases.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
