Abstract

See full text

A motor vehicle has an internal combustion engine and an exhaust system with an exhaust which has two deformable pipe members and at least two casings arranged downstream thereof and belonging to a catalytic converter and/or silencer. At least the last casing, relative to the direction of flow of the exhaust gas, of the exhaust, together with the first casing, defines a straight connecting line passing through the two casings and is held on the vehicle body by means of at least partially rubber-elastic connecting members in such a way that it is deflected by a force parallel to the straight connecting line more than by a force of equal magnitude at right angles to the straight connecting line. This enables the casings to be connected to one another exclusively by rigid exhaust parts and oscillations of the second casing to be kept small.
