Abstract
A flexible coupler apparatus for joining successive lengths of pipe in an exhaust system for a vehicle. An inner sleeve member is concentrically received by an outer sleeve member. A substantially porous, non-sealing, vibration absorbing spacer member is arranged between the sleeve members where they overlap, to preclude direct contact between the sleeve members. The spacer member is non-sealing to preclude deterioration while minimizing interference with the reciprocation and articulation of the sleeve members. A flexible, extensible member mechanically connects the sleeve members at their distant non-overlapped ends. A closure member may be employed to protect the extensible member from damage from external elements and forces.
