The DPF 1 is for physically collecting particulate matter (PM) and the like in the exhaust gas. The DPF 1 includes a diesel oxidation catalyst 2 such as platinum that generates nitrogen dioxide (NO ₂ ), and a soot filter 3 having a honeycomb structure that continuously oxidizes and removes the collected particulate matter (PM) at a relatively low temperature. The exhaust gas is arranged in series in the moving direction of the exhaust gas (from the left side to the right side in FIG. 1). The DPF 1 is configured so that the soot filter 3 is continuously regenerated. The DPF 1 can reduce carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbons (HC) in the exhaust gas in addition to the removal of particulate matter (PM) in the exhaust gas.

  With reference to FIG.1 and FIG.5, the attachment structure of the diesel oxidation catalyst 2 is demonstrated. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, a diesel oxidation catalyst 2 as a gas purification filter for purifying exhaust gas discharged from an engine is installed in a substantially cylindrical catalyst inner case 4 made of a heat-resistant metal material. The catalyst inner case 4 is provided in a substantially cylindrical catalyst outer case 5 made of a heat-resistant metal material.

Further, the catalyst outer case 5 is fitted on the outer side of the catalyst inner case 4 via a thin plate support 7 having an I-shaped end face. Note that the diesel oxidation catalyst 2 is protected by the catalyst heat insulating material 6. The stress (deformation force) of the catalyst outer case 5 transmitted to the catalyst inner case 4 is reduced by the thin plate support 7.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, a disc-shaped left lid 8 is fixed to the left end of the catalyst inner case 4 and the catalyst outer case 5 by welding. A sensor connection plug 10 is fixed to the left lid body 8 through a seat plate body 9. The left end face 2a of the diesel oxidation catalyst 2 and the left lid 8 are opposed to each other with a predetermined distance L1 for gas inflow space. An exhaust gas inflow space 11 is formed between the left end face 2 a of the diesel oxidation catalyst 2 and the left lid 8. The sensor connection plug 10 is connected to an unillustrated inlet side exhaust gas pressure sensor, an inlet side exhaust gas temperature sensor, and the like.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 5, and 9, an elliptical exhaust gas inlet 12 is opened at the left end of the catalyst inner case 4 and the catalyst outer case 5 in which the exhaust gas inflow space 11 is formed. The elliptical exhaust gas inlet 12 has a short diameter in the exhaust gas movement direction (center line direction of the cases 4 and 5) and a direction orthogonal to the exhaust gas movement direction (circumferential direction of the cases 4 and 5). It has a long diameter. A closing ring body 15 is fixed between the opening edge 13 of the catalyst inner case 4 and the opening edge 14 of the catalyst outer case 5 in a sandwiched manner. A gap between the opening edge 13 of the catalyst inner case 4 and the opening edge 14 of the catalyst outer case 5 is closed by the closing ring body 15.

The soot filter 3 is protected by the filter heat insulating material 22.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, the catalyst side flange 25 is welded to the exhaust gas movement downstream side (right side) of the catalyst outer case 5. The filter-side flange 26 is welded to the middle of the filter inner case 20 in the exhaust gas movement direction and the end of the filter outer case 21 on the upstream side (left side) of the exhaust gas movement.

The diameter of the cylindrical catalyst inner case 4 and the diameter of the cylindrical filter inner case 20 are substantially the same. Further, the diameter of the cylindrical catalyst outer case 5 and the diameter of the cylindrical filter outer case 21 are substantially the same.

The end portion on the upstream side (left side) of the exhaust gas movement of the filter inner case 20 faces the portion spaced apart by a fixed interval L2 for sensor attachment. In other words, the sensor mounting space 29 is formed between the exhaust gas movement downstream side (right side) end of the catalyst inner case 4 and the exhaust gas movement upstream side (left side) end of the filter inner case 20. A sensor connection plug 50 is fixed to the catalyst outer case 5 at the sensor mounting space 29 position. The sensor connection plug 50 is connected to a filter inlet side exhaust gas pressure sensor (not shown), a filter inlet side exhaust gas temperature sensor (thermistor), and the like.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the cylindrical length L4 of the catalyst outer case 5 in the exhaust gas movement direction is longer than the cylindrical length L3 of the catalyst inner case 4 in the exhaust gas movement direction. The cylindrical length L6 of the filter outer case 21 in the exhaust gas movement direction is shorter than the cylindrical length L5 of the filter inner case 20 in the exhaust gas movement direction. A length (L2 + L3 + L5) obtained by adding the constant interval L2 of the sensor mounting space 29, the cylindrical length L3 of the catalyst inner case 4 and the cylindrical length L5 of the filter inner case 20 is the cylindrical length L4 of the catalyst outer case 5.

The exhaust gas movement upstream side (left side) end of the filter outer case 21 and the exhaust gas movement upstream side (left side) end of the filter inner case 20 are only the difference in length (L7 = L5−L6). Protruding. That is, when the filter outer case 21 is connected to the catalyst outer case 5, the exhaust gas movement upstream side (left side) end of the filter inner case 20 is the overlap dimension L7, and the exhaust gas movement downstream side of the catalyst outer case 5 (Right side) is interpolated.

With the above configuration, nitrogen dioxide (NO ₂ ) generated by the oxidation action of the diesel oxidation catalyst 2 is supplied to the soot filter 3 from the left end face 3a. The collected particulate matter (PM) in the exhaust gas of the diesel engine 70 collected by the soot filter 3 is continuously oxidized and removed at a relatively low temperature by nitrogen dioxide (NO ₂ ) . In addition to the removal of particulate matter (PM) in the exhaust gas of the diesel engine 70, carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbons (HC) in the exhaust gas of the diesel engine 70 are reduced.

As described above, the diesel oxidation catalyst 2 and the soot filter 3 are provided as gas purification filters for purifying the exhaust gas discharged from the engine. However, instead of the diesel oxidation catalyst 2 and the soot filter 3, urea (reducing agent) is used.
