Exhaust gas treatment device and the respective manufacturing process
An exhaust gas treatment device for an exhaust gas system of an internal combustion engine, in particular of a motor vehicle, includes a housing and at least one exhaust gas treatment insert arranged in the housing and sheathed by bearing material on the circumference. To improve the axial fixation of the position of the exhaust gas treatment insert in the housing, at least one frictional structure is provided between the bearing material and the housing.
1. An exhaust gas treatment device for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, comprising:
a housing,
at least one exhaust gas treatment insert which is arranged in the housing and is sheathed by bearing material on a circumference thereof,
wherein at least one frictional structure is provided between the bearing material and the housing,
wherein the at least one frictional structure is formed by at least one frictional insert,
wherein the at least one frictional insert protrudes axially beyond the at least one exhaust gas treatment insert and attaches with the housing.
2. The exhaust gas treatment device according to claim 1 , wherein the frictional insert has the frictional structure with respect to at least one of the bearing material and the housing.
3. The exhaust gas treatment device according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one frictional insert attaches with the housing by means of a weld.
4. An exhaust gas treatment device for an exhaust gas system of an internal combustion engine, comprising:
a housing,
at least one exhaust gas treatment insert arranged in the housing and sheathed on a circumference thereof by bearing material, and
at least one fixation insert arranged between the bearing material and the housing, mounted on the housing and attached at least axially to the bearing material,
wherein the at least one fixation insert protrudes axially beyond the at least one exhaust gas treatment insert and mounts on the housing,
wherein the fixation insert is mounted on the housing with a ring body.
5. The exhaust gas treatment device according to claim 4 , wherein the fixation insert is a tension anchor.
6. The exhaust gas treatment device according to claim 4 , wherein the fixation insert is attached to the bearing material behind a downstream end of the bearing material.
