Abstract
An automobile exhaust valve is provided, in particular for an automobile combustion engine and more particularly for an embodiment of an implementation of a gas passage shutter. A valve body defines a gas circulation passage along a longitudinal axis and is composed of only two identical half-bodies whose axes, parallel to the longitudinal axis, are offset radially, in order to define inside the valve body two seats on which sides of the gas passage shutter come into flat contact in a closed position. An exhaust pipe equipped with such a valve, and a vehicle equipped with such an exhaust pipe, are also provided.
