Problems solved by technology

For this type of bracket, the bracket requires a lot of space in the vertical direction, which means that the total space of the muffler and the bracket cannot be used effectively
Additionally, ground clearance requirements limit space in the downward direction
In addition, round mufflers have the disadvantage that there is a risk of rotation during installation, which creates stress on items connected to the muffler, such as connecting cables
[0003] Also, from a purely technical point of view, it is cumbersome during production to obtain enough space to mount the muffler on a bracket that will be placed above or below the muffler
It also means that the installer's working position is not ergonomic
In addition, the actual bracket of the described type occupies a relatively large space

The invention also relates to a method for mounting an oval container (2) to a vehicle. The object of the invention is to make it possible to mount an oval container (2) on a vehicle simply and in a space-saving manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a muffler arrangement for a vehicle, in particular to a device for supporting and connecting a muffler to a vehicle by means of at least one bracket permanently connected to the vehicle, and is equipped with means for connecting the muffler to a bracket device. The invention also includes a method for mounting the muffler on a vehicle. Background technique [0002] Especially for heavy goods vehicles, the most common solution for mounting mufflers is to use brackets that protrude above or below the muffler. The bracket interacts with straps attached to the outer ends of the bracket, and together with the bracket surrounds the muffler, thereby attaching the muffler to the bracket. For this reason, mufflers are usually round. For this type of bracket, the bracket requires a lot of space in the vertical direction, which means that the total space of the muffler and the bracket cannot be used effectively. Additionally, ...
