ABSTRACT:
An elongated particulate trap to fit the area usually occupied by the vertical cylindrical muffler, as on a large diesel truck, consists of rings of axial flow filter elements and a disc-like axial flow end filter element stacked in a trap housing, having an exhaust inlet and outlet at opposite ends, so as to provide a central flow passage for entry of exhaust gases via the exhaust inlet and so as to define with the trap housing and exhaust passage in flow communication with the exhaust outlet. The filter elements are stacked in spaced apart relationship to each other whereby to provide an axial gap therebetween to allow radial flow on one face of the filter elements. The axial gaps are sealed alternately on inner and outer radial ends to define outlet and inlet passages, respectively and to force axial flow through the filter elements whereby particulates will be removed from the exhaust gases.
