摘要:
An electrical connection for an electrical component or electrically heatable honeycomb body, in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine includes an electrical conductor passing through a metallic jacket of the exhaust system, a bushing and an insulating layer and having an outer connection section with circular cross section. The connection section has a contact surface for connection to a supply line connection piece. The bushing and/or electrical conductor near the bushing can absorb torques up to 3.6, 4.5 or 7 Nm per cm2 of contact surface acting on the connection section and/or an internal or external thread in circumferential direction, by shaping the electrical conductor near the bushing or using structures and/or changes to the cross section or a form-locking construction of the electrical conductor and the bushing. Damage to electrical exhaust components due to external torques, disassembly and maintenance can thus be avoided.

A supporting pin for supporting an electrically heatable honeycomb body on a first honeycomb body includes a first end region, a second end region, an intermediate region, a core made of electrically non-conductive ceramic material and a metalized surface on at least one end region. The intermediate region is electrically non-conductive and has a length of at least 3 mm, preferably 5 to 15 mm. The supporting pin is particularly suitable for stabilizing electrically heatable honeycomb bodies in exhaust gas treatment systems for internal combustion engines, particularly for motor vehicles. When higher electrical voltages, such as 48 V, are used for electrically heatable honeycomb bodies, good electrical isolation is also assured in exhaust gas systems carrying soot particles with simultaneous safe support and suppression of vibrations.

A method for converting soot particles of an exhaust gas includes providing at least nitrogen dioxide or oxygen in the exhaust gas, ionizing soot particles with an electric field, depositing electrically charged soot particles on inner channel walls of at least one surface precipitator, and bringing at least nitrogen dioxide or oxygen into contact with the deposited soot particles on the inner channel walls of the at least one surface precipitator. A device for carrying out the method includes at least one surface precipitator having a plurality of channels through which the exhaust gas can flow and extending between an inlet region and an outlet region, and at least one deposit inhibitor for electrically charged soot particles provided in at least part of the inlet region, especially allowing the soot particles to be evenly deposited and the surface precipitator to be continuously regenerated.

An electrically heatable honeycomb body assembly includes an electrical connection of sheet metal layers at a connection pin. A honeycomb body has a metal casing with an inner periphery, through which the connection pin is led in a bushing and electrically insulated. The sheet metal layers are alternately coarsely structured and finely structured or smooth sheets together forming a stack with uppermost and lowermost layers and channels for an axial gas flow between the layers. The connection pin runs radially approximately perpendicular to the layers and is metallically connected to at least two or all of the layers through at least one intermediate piece. The uppermost sheet metal layer preferably runs approximately parallel to the metal casing over at least 35% of the inner periphery and is separated therefrom only by an air gap. Simple production of an operationally safe and very uniformly electrically heatable honeycomb body is provided.

A honeycomb body includes sheet metal layers forming a central current path to a radial connecting pin. A metal casing has an inner periphery and a feedthrough guiding and insulating the pin. The layers are alternate coarsely structured and finely structured or smooth sheets forming a stack with uppermost and lowermost layers forming axial gas channels. The pin is metallically connected to two or all of the layers directly or through an intermediate piece by an electrically conductive or welded connection. The current path has an electrical resistance per unit length in the connection region being greater than an average electrical resistance per unit length in the stack. The uppermost layer runs approximately parallel to the casing over 35% or 40% of the inner periphery and is separated from the casing by an air gap. Simple manufacture of a highly uniform, reliably operating, electrically heatable honeycomb body is thus possible.

A method for operating an exhaust gas treatment device including an electric heater for heating an exhaust gas flow in the exhaust gas treatment device and/or a surface in the exhaust gas treatment device and a feed point for feeding an additive into the exhaust gas treatment device to impinge upon the electric heater, includes supplying additives to the feed point, determining an operational state of the exhaust gas treatment device, in which deposits can impinge upon the electric heater, using at least one state variable, determining a cycle frequency in dependence on the operating state when the operating state lies in a predetermined operating state range, and cyclically activating and deactivating the electric heater using the determined cycle frequency when the determined operating state lies in the predetermined operating state range. A motor vehicle having the exhaust-gas treatment device is also provided.

A honeycomb body for exhaust gas aftertreatment includes a first end face, a second end face, a central axis that penetrates the two end faces and a length. The honeycomb body has at least one at least partially structured metallic layer which is disposed about the central axis. A structure of the at least one metallic layer has elevations and depressions which extend at least over part of the length of the honeycomb body and run obliquely to the central axis. At least one metallic connecting strip is provided between adjacent regions of the at least one metallic layer. The metallic connecting strip is shorter than the length of the honeycomb body and forms a brazed connection or welded connection to the adjacent regions. A method for producing such a honeycomb body and a motor vehicle having the honeycomb body are also provided.

A device for treating a gas stream, especially an exhaust-gas stream of an internal combustion engine, includes at least one radial chamber radially conducting the gas stream and extending substantially radially from a central region to an outer collecting chamber. First and second, preferably parallel, substantially disk-shaped walls delimit the chamber. Electrodes project from the first wall into the chamber. The first wall is formed of electrically insulating material having the electrodes fastened therein and electrically interconnected by electrical conductors in or on the insulating material. Two or more chambers may be disposed, axially in series, around the central region. Very effective treatment of exhaust gas with an electric field for ionization or generating a plasma can be provided over a relatively short structural length in a flow direction. Electric fields running transversely to the flow direction provide new possibilities for selecting various parameters of the treatment device.

A method for operating a dosing unit for dosing reducing agent into an exhaust gas treatment device for purifying the exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine, includes providing the dosing unit with at least one delivery pump, at least one injector and a line section for conducting reducing agent from the delivery pump to the injector. The dosing unit is first operated for dosing reducing agent into the exhaust gas treatment device. Then, the dosing unit is shut off. Subsequently, a first pressure is maintained in the line section for at least a first time period, with the first pressure exceeding atmospheric pressure. A motor vehicle having the dosing unit is also provided.
