Abstract

A mixing and/or evaporating device (7) is provided for an exhaust system (3) of an internal combustion engine (1), especially in a motor vehicle. The mixing and/or evaporating device (7) has a tubular body (8), at one axial end of which a plurality of blades (9) are arranged, which blades are located adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction, project radially inwardly and have angles of incidence in relation to one another in the axial direction. For manufacture at a low cost, the tubular body (8) is manufactured together with the blades (9) from a single sheet metal body (11) by shaping.
