Abstract
The silencer in stainless material for exhaust systems of automobile vehicles is made of two shells with crimped flanges. The bottom portion of the two shells have transverse corrugations on which rest the arcuate bottoms of holder elements of a box shape the vertical wings of which terminate by corrugated edges into which enter semi-circular corrugations of conformed plates. The two shells, the holder elements and the conformed plates are maintained in place by the crimped edges.
