Patent attributes
A lance injector assembly for an exhaust component includes: a shaft configured to extend into an exhaust conduit of the exhaust component, the shaft being hollow so as to define a channel therethrough, wherein an opening is defined in a wall of the shaft proximate to a second end of the shaft that is opposite the first end; a cap coupled to a first end of the shaft; and a supply line disposed within the channel defined by the shaft, wherein a nozzle is disposed at a downstream end of the supply line, the nozzle being fluidly coupled to the shaft around the opening such that reductant is able to flow from the nozzle through the opening and into an exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust conduit. Air is present in the space between the supply line and the wall of the shaft, the air inhibiting heat transfer to the supply line.
