It is composed of F component (Soluble Organic Fraction) as a main component and further contains a trace amount of sulfate (mist-like sulfuric acid component), but as a measure for reducing this type of particulates, exhaust gas is used. It has been conventionally practiced to equip a particulate filter in the middle of an exhaust pipe through which gas flows.

This type of particulate filter has a porous honeycomb structure made of a ceramic such as cordierite, and the inlets of the flow passages partitioned in a grid pattern are alternately plugged, and the inlets are plugged. The outlets of the non-flow passages are configured to be plugged so that only the exhaust gas that has permeated the porous thin wall defining each flow passage is discharged to the downstream side.

Since the particulates in the exhaust gas are collected and deposited on the inner surface of the porous thin wall, the particulates are appropriately burned and removed before the exhaust resistance increases due to clogging. It is necessary to regenerate the particulate filter, but in normal diesel engine operating conditions, there are few opportunities to obtain a high exhaust gas temperature that allows particulates to self-combust.
For example, a catalyst regeneration type particulate filter in which an oxidation catalyst formed by adding an appropriate amount of a rare earth element such as cerium to alumina supported by platinum is integrally supported is being put into practical use.

That is, if such a catalyst regeneration type particulate filter is adopted, the oxidation reaction of the collected particulates is promoted to lower the ignition temperature, and the particulates are burned and removed even at an exhaust temperature lower than the conventional one. It becomes possible to do it.

However, even when such a catalyst regenerating type particulate filter is adopted, the oxidation catalyst carried by the particulate filter has an active temperature range, which is lower than the active lower limit temperature. If the operating condition at the exhaust temperature continues, there may be a problem that the particulates are not burned and removed satisfactorily because the oxidation catalyst is not activated.Therefore, an electric heater, fuel addition device, etc. are attached to perform forced heating. Is being considered.

However, when an electric heater, a fuel addition device or the like is attached, an electric system for energizing the electric heater or a fuel system for supplying fuel to the fuel addition device.

On the other hand, the forced heating by an electric heater or a fuel addition device is required. If not performed, there was a problem that the particulate filter would be clogged in a short period of time.

Thus, in this way, the exhaust gas introduced into the filter case passes through the nozzle portion of the dispersion plate even when the internal combustion engine is in a low load operating state such as during light load operation. At this time, the flow is narrowed and concentratedly sprayed on the inlet side end surface of the particulate filter, and as a result, a locally high-temperature portion is formed on the inlet side end surface of the particulate filter whose material has extremely low thermal conductivity. It will be.

When the local high-temperature portion becomes higher than the lower limit temperature of the activity of the oxidation catalyst and the particulates oxidize, the high-temperature portion becomes the reaction starting point of the oxidation reaction with this as the oxidation starting point, and the surrounding area becomes the oxidation reaction heat. As a result of the increase in temperature at, the oxidation reaction propagates to the peripheral portion and spreads to the particulates of the entire particulate filter, so that the particulates trapped by the particulate filter are satisfactorily burned and removed.

Further, in the present invention, it is preferable that the distance from the tip of the nozzle portion to the inlet end surface of the particulate filter is set to be not more than twice the diameter of the tip of the nozzle portion. If it is set, it becomes difficult for the exhaust gas around the relatively low temperature that has passed through the normal communication hole to mix with the flow of exhaust gas that has passed through the nozzle section and has become hot, and the flow is throttled by the nozzle section Since only the converted exhaust gas is intensively blown to the entrance-side end surface of the particulate filter, a local high temperature portion is easily formed on the entrance-side end surface of the particulate filter.

In the present embodiment, as shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 3, each communication hole of the dispersion plate 11 is disposed in the filter case 7 so as to face the entrance end surface of the particulate filter 6 closely. A part of 11a is burred so as to become a nozzle portion 16 that narrows the flow of the exhaust gas 3 in a bell mouth shape in which the diameter gradually decreases toward the entrance side end surface of the particulate filter 6.
The distance L from the tip of the nozzle portion 16 to the entrance end surface of the particulate filter 6 is the tip diameter D of the nozzle portion 16.

Thus, in this way, the exhaust gas 3 introduced into the filter case 7 has the nozzles of the dispersion plate 11 even when the diesel engine 1 is in a low load operating state such as during light load operation. When passing through the portion 16, the flow is narrowed and concentratedly sprayed on the inlet side end surface of the particulate filter 6, and as a result, the thermal conductivity of the particulate filter 6 is extremely low locally on the inlet side end surface of the particulate filter 6. A high temperature spot will be formed.

That is, although the ordinary communication hole 11a formed in the dispersion plate 11 in a plane is substantially reduced in effective diameter d through which the flow of the exhaust gas 3 can pass with respect to the apparent processing diameter D. On the other hand, in the nozzle portion 16, the flow of the exhaust gas 3 corresponding to the flow passage cross-sectional area of the diameter D 0 is smoothly narrowed down to the tip diameter D and passes through as it is. The exhaust gas 3 having a flow rate several times higher than that of the communication hole 11a is blown out toward the inlet side end surface of the particulate filter 6.

Here, the following relational expression P · V / T = constant thermodynamically has been determined for the temperature T of the exhaust gas 3, the exhaust pressure P, and the flow rate (volume) V. As described above, if the flow rate V of the exhaust gas 3 on the outlet side of the nozzle portion 16 increases, the temperature T also increases significantly.

Then, when the local high temperature portion on the inlet side end face of the particulate filter 6 becomes higher than the lower limit temperature of the activity of the oxidation catalyst and the particulates oxidize, the high temperature portion becomes the oxidation starting point of the oxidation reaction. And the temperature of the surroundings is increased by the heat of the oxidation reaction, so that the oxidation reaction propagates to the peripheral portion and the particulate filter 6
As a result of being spread to the entire particulates, the particulates trapped by the particulate filter 6 are burned and removed favorably.

In particular, as described in this embodiment, the nozzle portion 1
If the distance L from the tip of the nozzle 6 to the inlet side end surface of the particulate filter 6 is set to be twice the tip diameter D of the nozzle portion 16 or less, the temperature which has passed through the normal communication hole 11a is relatively high. It becomes difficult for the exhaust gas 3 in the surroundings having a low temperature to mix with the flow of the exhaust gas 3 that has passed through the nozzle portion 16 and has a high temperature, and only the exhaust gas 3 that has a high temperature due to the flow being narrowed by the nozzle portion 16 has a particulate filter. Since it is intensively sprayed on the inlet side end surface of 6, the local hot spot is easily formed on the inlet side end surface of the particulate filter 6.

Therefore, according to the above-described embodiment, even when the diesel engine 1 is in a low load operating state such as during light load operation, the flow of the exhaust gas 3 is narrowed down by the nozzle portion 16 of the dispersion plate 11 and the pattern is reduced. A local high temperature portion is formed by intensively spraying the inlet side end surface of the particulate filter 6, and the local high temperature portion is used as a reaction starting point of the oxidation reaction to propagate the oxidation reaction to the entire particulate filter 6 and Since the catalyst bed temperature of the entire filter 6 can be raised to maintain the oxidation catalyst in a stable active state, the particulate filter 6
It is possible to satisfactorily combust and remove the particulates trapped in the particulate filter, thereby making it possible to reduce the cost by eliminating the compulsory heating means such as the electric heater and the fuel addition device, and to further reduce the particulate filter. The clogging in 6 in a short period can be surely avoided.
