A propeller shaft (not shown) extending in the longitudinal direction is arranged adjacent to the left side of the first unit 10 .

第一ユニット10は、第二ユニット20の直上流に設けられる。第一ユニット10は、前段酸化触媒51に排気を送り込む第一入口部11と、前段酸化触媒51を収容する前段ケース部12と、DPF52を収容するDPFケース部13と、DPF52を通過した排気を受ける第一出口部14と、排気に乱流を生じさせる混合部15とで構成される。 The first unit 10 is provided immediately upstream of the second unit 20 . The first unit 10 includes a first inlet portion 11 that feeds the exhaust gas to the front oxidation catalyst 51, a front case portion 12 that houses the front oxidation catalyst 51, a DPF case portion 13 that houses the DPF 52, and exhaust gas that has passed through the DPF 52. It consists of a first outlet section 14 for receiving and a mixing section 15 for creating turbulence in the exhaust gas.

On the other hand, the first outlet portion 14 is formed in a substantially bottomed cylindrical shape whose downstream end is closed by a substantially flat plate-like end wall portion 14a. The first inlet portion 11, the front case portion 12, the DPF case portion 13, and the first outlet portion 14 are arranged such that their axes extend in the front-rear direction, and are arranged in this order from the front to the rear.

これに対し、混合部15は、軸心が左右方向に沿う姿勢とされ、その左側の部分が第一出口部14に入り込んだ状態で配置される。混合部15のうち、第一出口部14内に配置される部分には、排気を混合部15内に取り入れるための複数の孔部15hが形成される。混合部15は、孔部15hから流入した排気と、インジェクタ3から噴射された添加剤との混合を促進する機能をもつ。 On the other hand, the mixing section 15 is arranged such that its axis extends in the left-right direction, and the left portion of the mixing section 15 enters the first outlet section 14 . A plurality of holes 15 h for introducing the exhaust gas into the mixing section 15 is formed in a portion of the mixing section 15 that is arranged inside the first outlet section 14 . The mixing portion 15 has a function of promoting mixing of the exhaust gas that has flowed in from the hole portion 15h and the additive injected from the injector 3 .

第二ユニット20は、SCR53に排気を送り込む第二入口部21と、SCR53及び後段酸化触媒54を収容するSCRケース部22と、SCR53及び後段酸化触媒54を通過した排気を下流側へ送る第二出口部23とで構成される。第二入口部21及び第二出口部23は何れも、緩やかに湾曲した略円筒状に形成される。第二入口部21の上流端は、混合部15の下流端に接続される。 The second unit 20 includes a second inlet portion 21 that sends exhaust gas to the SCR 53, an SCR case portion 22 that houses the SCR 53 and the post-oxidation catalyst 54, and a second inlet portion 22 that sends the exhaust gas that has passed through the SCR 53 and the post-oxidation catalyst 54 to the downstream side. and an outlet portion 23 . Both the second inlet portion 21 and the second outlet portion 23 are formed in a gently curved substantially cylindrical shape. The upstream end of the second inlet section 21 is connected to the downstream end of the mixing section 15 .

SCRケース部22は、SCR53及び後段酸化触媒54を収容する部位が略円筒状に形成され、その軸心が前後方向に沿う姿勢とされる。第二入口部21,SCRケース部22及び第二出口部23は、後方から前方に向かってこの順に配置される。なお、SCRケース部22内では、SCR53が後段酸化触媒54よりも上流側に配置される。 The SCR case portion 22 has a substantially cylindrical portion that accommodates the SCR 53 and the post-oxidation catalyst 54, and the axis of the SCR case portion 22 extends in the front-rear direction. The second inlet portion 21, the SCR case portion 22, and the second outlet portion 23 are arranged in this order from the rear to the front. Note that the SCR 53 is arranged upstream of the post-oxidation catalyst 54 in the SCR case portion 22 .

エンジンの排気は、第一入口部11を通って前段ケース部12に流入し、前段酸化触媒51を通過した後にDPFケース部13内のDPF52を通過して第一出口部14に流れる。そして、この排気は、混合部15の孔部15hから混合部15内に流れ、インジェクタ3から噴射された添加剤と混ざり合いながら第二入口部21に流れる。このように、排気は、第一出口部14の内部で混合部15に流れ込むことで、その流れ方向が後方へ向かう方向から右方へ向かう方向へと略90°変更されて、第二入口部21へと到達する。続いて、この排気は、SCRケース部22に流入し、SCR53及び後段酸化触媒54を順に通過した後に第二出口部23から下流側へと流れる。 Engine exhaust flows through the first inlet portion 11 into the front case portion 12 , passes through the front oxidation catalyst 51 , passes through the DPF 52 in the DPF case portion 13 , and flows to the first outlet portion 14 . Then, the exhaust gas flows into the mixing section 15 from the holes 15 h of the mixing section 15 and flows into the second inlet section 21 while being mixed with the additive injected from the injector 3 . In this way, the exhaust gas flows into the mixing section 15 inside the first outlet section 14, so that the flow direction is changed by approximately 90° from the rearward direction to the rightward direction, and the second inlet section 21 is reached. Subsequently, the exhaust gas flows into the SCR case portion 22, passes through the SCR 53 and the post-oxidation catalyst 54 in order, and then flows downstream from the second outlet portion 23. As shown in FIG.

ここで、第一出口部14の詳細な構成について説明する。
本実施形態の第一出口部14は、その内側に向かって凹んだ凹部14bと、凹部14bから更に内側に向かって凹んだボス部4とを有する。本実施形態では、凹部14b及びボス部4が、第一出口部14の左側の部位に形成されている場合を例示する。すなわち、凹部14b及びボス部4は何れも、第一出口部14において、プロペラシャフトから離隔する方向(右方)に向かって凹んだ部位である。
Here, a detailed configuration of the first outlet portion 14 will be described.
The first outlet portion 14 of this embodiment has a recess 14b recessed inward and a boss portion 4 further recessed inward from the recess 14b. In this embodiment, the recess 14b and the boss 4 are formed on the left side of the first outlet 14 as an example. That is, both the recessed portion 14b and the boss portion 4 are portions of the first outlet portion 14 that are recessed in a direction away from the propeller shaft (rightward).

凹部14b及びボス部4は、インジェクタ3の突出量(第一ユニット10の左側面から左側へ突出する長さ)を低減する機能をもつ。具体的には、凹部14b及びボス部4のそれぞれが凹むことによって形成される空間にインジェクタ3が配置されることで、インジェクタ3の左方への突出量が低減され、インジェクタ3とプロペラシャフトとの干渉が抑制される。 The concave portion 14b and the boss portion 4 have the function of reducing the amount of protrusion of the injector 3 (the length of protrusion from the left side surface of the first unit 10 to the left). Specifically, by arranging the injector 3 in a space formed by recessing each of the recess 14b and the boss 4, the amount of protrusion of the injector 3 to the left is reduced, and the injector 3 and the propeller shaft are separated from each other. interference is suppressed.

第一出口部14は、ボス部4を除く部分が二重の構造とされている。具体的には図2に示すように、第一出口部14は、内壁材41と、内壁材41よりも一回り大きく形成されて内壁材41の外側に配置された外壁材42とを有する。内壁材41及び外壁材42は何れも、前述した凹部14bを構成するように略筒状に形成されている。 The first outlet portion 14 has a double structure except for the boss portion 4 . Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2 , the first outlet portion 14 has an inner wall member 41 and an outer wall member 42 formed to be slightly larger than the inner wall member 41 and arranged outside the inner wall member 41 . Both the inner wall member 41 and the outer wall member 42 are formed in a substantially cylindrical shape so as to constitute the recess 14b described above.

内壁材41には、ボス部4及び混合部15がそれぞれ配置される孔部(何れも図示略)が形成される。同様に、外壁材42には、インジェクタ3が配置される孔部43と、混合部15が配置される孔部(図示略)とが形成される。なお、図示は省略するが、第一出口部14の端壁部14aも同様に、内壁材と外壁材とで二重の構造とされている。 The inner wall member 41 is formed with holes (not shown) in which the boss portion 4 and the mixing portion 15 are respectively arranged. Similarly, the outer wall member 42 is formed with a hole 43 in which the injector 3 is arranged and a hole (not shown) in which the mixing section 15 is arranged. Although illustration is omitted, the end wall portion 14a of the first outlet portion 14 also has a double structure of inner wall material and outer wall material.

[1-3.インジェクタ]
図2に示すように、インジェクタ3は、その基端に設けられた供給孔31に供給される添加剤を、その先端に設けられた噴射孔32から混合部15内に噴射するものである。本実施形態のインジェクタ3は、添加剤の単位時間当たりの噴射量を所定量に調整したうえで、混合部15の軸心C1に沿って添加剤を噴射する。
[1-3. injector]
As shown in FIG. 2, the injector 3 injects an additive supplied to a supply hole 31 provided at its proximal end into the mixing section 15 from an injection hole 32 provided at its tip. The injector 3 of the present embodiment adjusts the injection amount of the additive per unit time to a predetermined amount, and then injects the additive along the axis C1 of the mixing section 15 .

インジェクタ3が噴射する添加剤としては、尿素水,アンモニア水,無水アンモニア(NH3)が挙げられる。インジェクタ3が尿素水を噴射する場合、排気管2内では、尿素水の熱分解によってNH3が生成される。また、インジェクタ3がアンモニア水を噴射する場合、排気管2内では、アンモニア水の加水分解によってNH3が生成される。すなわち、インジェクタ3が尿素水,アンモニア水,無水アンモニアの何れを噴射する場合も、排気管2内ではNH3が排気と混ざり合って流れる。排気と混ざり合ったNH3は、SCR53で還元剤として機能し、排気中の窒素酸化物(NOx)を窒素(N2)に還元する。 Examples of the additive injected by the injector 3 include urea water, ammonia water, and anhydrous ammonia (NH 3 ). When the injector 3 injects urea water, NH 3 is generated in the exhaust pipe 2 by thermal decomposition of the urea water. Further, when the injector 3 injects aqueous ammonia, NH 3 is produced in the exhaust pipe 2 by hydrolysis of the aqueous ammonia. That is, NH 3 flows in the exhaust pipe 2 while being mixed with the exhaust gas, regardless of whether the injector 3 injects urea water, ammonia water, or anhydrous ammonia. The NH3 mixed with the exhaust acts as a reducing agent in the SCR 53, reducing nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the exhaust to nitrogen ( N2 ).

供給孔31と噴射孔32とは、同一の軸心C2上に設けられる。インジェクタ3は、この軸心C2に沿って添加剤を噴射する。以下、この軸心C2を「インジェクタ3の軸心C2」ともいい、供給孔31から噴射孔32に向かう方向(すなわち、インジェクタ3が添加剤を噴射する方向)を噴射方向Dともいう。 The supply hole 31 and the injection hole 32 are provided on the same axis C2. The injector 3 injects the additive along this axis C2. Hereinafter, the axis C2 will also be referred to as the "axis C2 of the injector 3", and the direction from the supply hole 31 to the injection hole 32 (that is, the direction in which the injector 3 injects the additive) will also be referred to as the injection direction D.

インジェクタ3の軸心C2は、インジェクタ3がボス部4に取り付けられた状態で、混合部15の軸心C1上に位置する。言い換えると、インジェクタ3は、混合部15と同一軸心上に位置する(すなわち、インジェクタ3の軸心C2が混合部15の軸心C1と重なる)ように、ボス部4に対して位置決めされる。また、本実施形態のインジェクタ3は、噴射方向Dが水平方向に対して下降傾斜する姿勢でボス部4に取り付けられている。より具体的には、本実施形態の噴射方向Dは、左方から右方に向かって下降傾斜する方向である。 The axis C<b>2 of the injector 3 is located on the axis C<b>1 of the mixing section 15 when the injector 3 is attached to the boss portion 4 . In other words, the injector 3 is positioned with respect to the boss portion 4 so as to be coaxial with the mixing portion 15 (that is, the axis C2 of the injector 3 overlaps with the axis C1 of the mixing portion 15). . Further, the injector 3 of this embodiment is attached to the boss portion 4 in such a posture that the injection direction D is inclined downward with respect to the horizontal direction. More specifically, the injection direction D in this embodiment is a direction that slopes downward from left to right.

[1-4. Boss part]
The boss portion 4 is formed in a substantially bottomed tubular shape recessed toward the inside of the first outlet portion 14 . The boss portion 4 of the present embodiment is formed separately from other portions of the first outlet portion 14 by casting. The boss portion 4 has a substantially flat bottom portion (seat portion) 5 and a substantially cylindrical peripheral wall portion 6 .

底部5は、その法線が左方から右方に向かって下降傾斜する姿勢で、内壁材41の内側(凹部14bよりも右方〔図2中の左方〕)に配置される。底部5の外周面5aは、略円柱面状に形成される。底部5の外周面5aには、混合部15の左端部が例えば溶接により固定される。言い換えると、混合部15は底部5に外嵌される。なお、混合部15は、このように底部5に固定された状態では、底部5から周壁部6と離隔する方向に延在する。 The bottom portion 5 is arranged inside the inner wall member 41 (to the right of the concave portion 14b [left side in FIG. 2]) in a posture in which the normal line thereof is inclined downward from the left side to the right side. An outer peripheral surface 5a of the bottom portion 5 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape. The left end portion of the mixing portion 15 is fixed to the outer peripheral surface 5a of the bottom portion 5 by, for example, welding. In other words, the mixing portion 15 is fitted over the bottom portion 5 . In addition, the mixing section 15 extends in a direction away from the peripheral wall section 6 from the bottom section 5 in a state of being fixed to the bottom section 5 in this manner.

底部5には、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32が配置される貫通孔7が形成される。本実施形態の貫通孔7は、略円錐台形状とされ、底部5の正面視で円形状をなす。貫通孔7は、底部5の略中心に設けられる。貫通孔7の軸心C3は、底部5の法線と平行に延び、混合部15及びインジェクタ3のそれぞれがボス部4に取り付けられた状態では混合部15及びインジェクタ3の各軸心C1,C2と重なる(一致する)。以下、底部5において貫通孔7を囲む壁面5bを内周面5bともいう。 A through hole 7 in which an injection hole 32 of the injector 3 is arranged is formed in the bottom portion 5 . The through hole 7 of the present embodiment has a substantially truncated cone shape, and has a circular shape when the bottom portion 5 is viewed from the front. The through hole 7 is provided substantially at the center of the bottom portion 5 . The axis C3 of the through hole 7 extends parallel to the normal line of the bottom portion 5, and when the mixing portion 15 and the injector 3 are attached to the boss portion 4, the axes C1 and C2 of the mixing portion 15 and the injector 3 are aligned. overlaps (matches) with Hereinafter, the wall surface 5b surrounding the through hole 7 in the bottom portion 5 is also referred to as the inner peripheral surface 5b.

周壁部6は、底部5の外縁から第一出口部14の外側に向かって延設される。周壁部6は、内壁材41に形成された孔部に配置されたうえで内壁材41に固定される。ボス部4は、このように周壁部6が内壁材41に固定されることで、第一出口部14の他の部位(ボス部4以外の部位)と一体化される。 The peripheral wall portion 6 extends from the outer edge of the bottom portion 5 toward the outside of the first outlet portion 14 . The peripheral wall portion 6 is arranged in a hole formed in the inner wall member 41 and then fixed to the inner wall member 41 . By fixing the peripheral wall portion 6 to the inner wall member 41 in this manner, the boss portion 4 is integrated with other portions of the first outlet portion 14 (portions other than the boss portion 4).

ボス部4のうち、内壁材41の内側に配置される部位は、内壁材41と非接触に設けられる。すなわち、ボス部4が内壁材41に固定された状態で、周壁部6の一部と底部5との各外周には排気が流通可能な空間が設けられる。また、底部5に固定された混合部15の外周にも同様に、排気が流通可能な空間が設けられる。 A portion of the boss portion 4 that is arranged inside the inner wall member 41 is provided so as to be out of contact with the inner wall member 41 . That is, in a state where the boss portion 4 is fixed to the inner wall member 41, a space through which the exhaust gas can flow is provided on each outer periphery of a portion of the peripheral wall portion 6 and the bottom portion 5. As shown in FIG. Similarly, a space through which the exhaust gas can flow is provided on the outer circumference of the mixing section 15 fixed to the bottom section 5 .

ここで、底部5の構造について詳述する。底部5には、排気を貫通孔7へ導く通路部8が設けられている。図3に示すように、通路部8は、底部5の外周面5aから貫通孔7まで延設される。このように、通路部8は、底部5の外周面5a及び内周面5bのそれぞれにおいて開口する排気の通路である。 Here, the structure of the bottom portion 5 will be described in detail. The bottom portion 5 is provided with a passage portion 8 that guides the exhaust gas to the through hole 7 . As shown in FIG. 3 , the passage portion 8 extends from the outer peripheral surface 5 a of the bottom portion 5 to the through hole 7 . In this manner, the passage portion 8 is an exhaust passage that opens at each of the outer peripheral surface 5 a and the inner peripheral surface 5 b of the bottom portion 5 .

本実施形態では、三つの通路部8が貫通孔7の周方向に等間隔に配置されている場合を例示する。具体的には、通路部8は、貫通孔7の前方(第一出口部14における上流側)と、貫通孔7の後方(第一出口部14の端壁部14a側)と、貫通孔7の下方とのそれぞれに設けられている。三つの通路部8は、互いに等しい形状である。 In this embodiment, the case where the three passage portions 8 are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the through hole 7 is illustrated. Specifically, the passage portion 8 includes the front side of the through hole 7 (the upstream side of the first outlet portion 14), the rear side of the through hole 7 (the end wall portion 14a side of the first outlet portion 14), and the through hole 7 are provided below and respectively. The three passages 8 have the same shape.

本実施形態の各通路部8は、底部5において噴射方向Dを向く面5c(以下、端面5cという)に凹設された溝状の通路部(第一通路部)8Aで構成されている。以下、この溝状の通路部8Aを「溝通路部8A」ともいう。また、本実施形態の各通路部8は、貫通孔7の接線Lに沿って直線状に延在する。なお、ここでいう接線Lとは、底部5の正面視で、内周面5bが端面5cにおいてなす円形状の接線Lである。 Each passage portion 8 of the present embodiment is composed of a groove-shaped passage portion (first passage portion) 8A recessed in a surface 5c (hereinafter referred to as an end surface 5c) of the bottom portion 5 facing the injection direction D. Hereinafter, this groove-shaped passage portion 8A is also referred to as "groove passage portion 8A". Further, each passage portion 8 of the present embodiment extends linearly along the tangent line L of the through hole 7 . In addition, the tangent line L here is a circular tangent line L formed by the inner peripheral surface 5b at the end surface 5c when the bottom portion 5 is viewed from the front.

溝通路部8Aは、その全長にわたって底部5の端面5cで開口する窪みである。本実施形態の溝通路部8Aは、断面(溝通路部8Aの延在方向に直交する横断面)が半長円形状であって、底部5の外周面5aにおいて半長円形状に開口する。ただし、前述したように底部5には混合部15が外嵌されるため、溝通路部8Aは、底部5の外周面5aにおいて一部が混合部15により塞がれる。図3に二点鎖線で示すように、本実施形態の溝通路部8Aは、混合部15が底部5に外嵌された状態では、底部5の外周面5aにおいて半円形状に開口する。 The groove passage portion 8A is a depression that opens at the end face 5c of the bottom portion 5 over its entire length. The groove passage portion 8A of the present embodiment has a semi-elliptical cross-section (cross section orthogonal to the extending direction of the groove passage portion 8A), and the bottom portion 5 has an opening at the outer peripheral surface 5a of the semi-elliptical shape. However, since the mixing portion 15 is fitted onto the bottom portion 5 as described above, the outer peripheral surface 5a of the bottom portion 5 is partially closed by the mixing portion 15 in the groove passage portion 8A. As indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 3 , the groove passage portion 8A of the present embodiment opens in a semicircular shape on the outer peripheral surface 5a of the bottom portion 5 when the mixing portion 15 is fitted onto the bottom portion 5 .

前述したように、本実施形態の通路部8には、貫通孔7よりも上流側に設けられた通路部(第三通路部)8Bが含まれている。以下、この通路部8Bを「上流通路部8B」ともいう。上流通路部8Bは、その全体が貫通孔7よりも上流側(すなわち、DPF52が配置される側)に形成されている。上流通路部8Bは、底部5の外周面5aにおいて上流側に向かって開口するとともに、底部5の内周面5bにおいて下流側(DPF52が配置される側と反対側)に向かって開口する。 As described above, the passage portion 8 of the present embodiment includes the passage portion (third passage portion) 8B provided upstream of the through hole 7 . Hereinafter, this passage portion 8B is also referred to as "upstream passage portion 8B". The upstream passage portion 8B is formed entirely upstream of the through hole 7 (that is, the side where the DPF 52 is arranged). The upstream passage portion 8B opens upstream at the outer peripheral surface 5a of the bottom portion 5, and opens downstream (opposite to the side where the DPF 52 is arranged) at the inner peripheral surface 5b of the bottom portion 5. As shown in FIG.

[2.作用,効果]
(1)排気浄化装置1では、ボス部4の底部5の外周面5aから貫通孔7まで通路部8が延設されているため、排気管2内の排気の一部は、ボス部4の底部5の外側から通路部8を通って貫通孔7へと流れる。このように、排気浄化装置1によれば、通路部8を通じて、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32が配置される貫通孔7まで排気を積極的に供給することができる。
[2. action, effect]
(1) In the exhaust purification device 1 , the passage portion 8 extends from the outer peripheral surface 5 a of the bottom portion 5 of the boss portion 4 to the through hole 7 . It flows from the outside of the bottom part 5 through the passage part 8 to the through hole 7 . As described above, according to the exhaust purification device 1, the exhaust gas can be positively supplied through the passage portion 8 to the through hole 7 in which the injection hole 32 of the injector 3 is arranged.

したがって、たとえインジェクタ3で噴射された添加剤が噴射孔32やその付近に付着(残留)していたとしても、通路部8から貫通孔7に吹き出た排気により、この添加剤を吹き飛ばすことができる。よって、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32及びその周辺における添加剤由来のデポジットの生成を抑制することができる。これにより、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32がデポジットで目詰まりする事態を生じにくくすることができる。 Therefore, even if the additive injected by the injector 3 adheres (residues) to the injection hole 32 or its vicinity, the additive can be blown off by the exhaust gas blown from the passage portion 8 into the through hole 7. . Therefore, it is possible to suppress the formation of additive-derived deposits in the injection hole 32 of the injector 3 and its surroundings. As a result, clogging of the injection holes 32 of the injector 3 with deposits can be prevented.

また、添加剤は低温下でデポジットを生成しやすいのに対し、排気浄化装置1では高温(通常300℃程度)の排気を通路部8により貫通孔7に導くため、貫通孔7内を排気で適度に温めることができる。これによっても、貫通孔7内における添加剤由来のデポジットの生成を抑制することができる。 In addition, additives tend to form deposits at low temperatures. It can be warmed up properly. This can also suppress the formation of additive-derived deposits in the through-holes 7 .

(2)通路部8が直線状に延在するため、例えば通路部8が曲線状や折れ線状に延在する場合と比べて、加工(成形)やメンテナンスを容易にすることができる。また、通路部8を直線状とすれば通路部8の長さを短くしやすくなるため、通路部8を流れる排気の圧力損失の低減を図ることができる。よって、貫通孔7まで排気をより導きやすくすることができる。 (2) Since the passage portion 8 extends linearly, processing (molding) and maintenance can be facilitated compared to, for example, the case where the passage portion 8 extends in a curved line or a polygonal line. Further, if the passage portion 8 is linear, the length of the passage portion 8 can be easily shortened, so that the pressure loss of the exhaust gas flowing through the passage portion 8 can be reduced. Therefore, the exhaust gas can be more easily guided to the through hole 7 .

(3)貫通孔7が円形状であって、通路部8が貫通孔7の接線Lに沿って延在するため、通路部8から貫通孔7に導かれた排気を貫通孔7内で旋回させることができる。すなわち、貫通孔7の接線Lに沿う通路部8から貫通孔7へと排気を供給することで、底部5の内周面5bに沿って排気を流すことができる。これにより、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32の周囲に排気の旋回流が生じることから、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32及びその周辺におけるデポジットの生成をより効果的に抑制することができる。 (3) Since the through hole 7 has a circular shape and the passage portion 8 extends along the tangent line L of the through hole 7, the exhaust gas guided from the passage portion 8 to the through hole 7 swirls within the through hole 7. can be made That is, by supplying the exhaust gas from the passage portion 8 along the tangent line L of the through hole 7 to the through hole 7 , the exhaust gas can flow along the inner peripheral surface 5 b of the bottom portion 5 . As a result, a swirling flow of exhaust gas is generated around the injection hole 32 of the injector 3, so that the formation of deposits in the injection hole 32 of the injector 3 and its surroundings can be suppressed more effectively.

(4)複数の通路部8が貫通孔7の周方向に等間隔で配置されているため、通路部8から貫通孔7に導かれる排気の流れ方を周方向において均等化することができる。これにより、貫通孔7の周方向の全域にわたって排気を積極的に流すことができるため、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32及びその周辺におけるデポジットの生成をより効果的に抑制することができる。 (4) Since the plurality of passages 8 are arranged at regular intervals in the circumferential direction of the through hole 7, the flow of exhaust gas guided from the passages 8 to the through hole 7 can be made uniform in the circumferential direction. As a result, the exhaust gas can be actively flowed over the entire circumference of the through hole 7, so that the formation of deposits in and around the injection hole 32 of the injector 3 can be more effectively suppressed.

(5)通路部8には、底部5の端面5cに凹設された溝状の溝通路部8Aが少なくとも一つ含まれているため、端面5c側からの溝通路部8Aの加工(成形)及びメンテナンスを容易にすることができる。また、溝通路部8Aは、底部5の外周面5a及び内周面5bだけでなく端面5cにおいても開口するため、底部5の外周面5a側に加えて端面5c側からも排気も貫通孔7へと導くことができる。これにより、貫通孔7への排気供給が促進されるため、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32及びその周辺におけるデポジットの生成をより効果的に抑制することができる。 (5) Since the passage portion 8 includes at least one groove-like groove passage portion 8A recessed in the end surface 5c of the bottom portion 5, the groove passage portion 8A is processed (molded) from the end surface 5c side. and maintenance can be facilitated. In addition, since the groove passage portion 8A is opened not only at the outer peripheral surface 5a and the inner peripheral surface 5b of the bottom portion 5 but also at the end surface 5c, the through holes 7 are exhausted not only from the outer peripheral surface 5a side of the bottom portion 5 but also from the end surface 5c side. can lead to As a result, the supply of the exhaust gas to the through hole 7 is promoted, so that the formation of deposits in and around the injection hole 32 of the injector 3 can be more effectively suppressed.

(6)溝通路部8Aは、断面が半長円形状であり、混合部15が底部5に外嵌された状態で底部5の外周面5aにおいて半円形状に開口する。このように、底部5のうちの混合部15で塞がれる領域を加味して溝通路部8Aの形状を設定することで、底部5の外周面5aにおける溝通路部8Aの開口面積をより適切に確保することができる。よって、溝通路部8Aに排気をより確実に取り入れることができる。また、溝通路部8Aの断面が半長円形状であれば、溝通路部8Aが曲面で構成されることから、溝通路部8Aを流れる排気の圧力損失を低減することができる。 (6) The groove passage portion 8A has a semi-elliptical cross section, and opens in a semi-circular shape at the outer peripheral surface 5a of the bottom portion 5 when the mixing portion 15 is fitted onto the bottom portion 5 . By setting the shape of the groove passage portion 8A in consideration of the area of the bottom portion 5 that is blocked by the mixing portion 15 in this way, the opening area of the groove passage portion 8A on the outer peripheral surface 5a of the bottom portion 5 can be made more appropriate. can be secured to Therefore, it is possible to more reliably introduce the exhaust gas into the groove passage portion 8A. Further, if the grooved passage portion 8A has a semi-elliptical cross section, the grooved passage portion 8A is configured with a curved surface, so that the pressure loss of the exhaust gas flowing through the grooved passage portion 8A can be reduced.

(7)通路部8には、貫通孔7よりも上流側に設けられた上流通路部8Bが少なくとも一つ含まれているため、貫通孔7まで排気をより導きやすくすることができる。すなわち、上流通路部8Bは、底部5の外周面5aにおいて上流側に向かって開口するとともに、底部5の内周面5bにおいて下流側に向かって開口していることから、排気を積極的に取り入れて、よりスムーズに貫通孔7まで導くことができる。このように、上流通路部8Bを設ければ、排気が貫通孔7に流れやすくなるため、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32及びその周辺におけるデポジットの生成をより効果的に抑制することができる。 (7) Since the passage portion 8 includes at least one upstream passage portion 8B provided on the upstream side of the through hole 7, the exhaust gas can be more easily guided to the through hole 7. That is, the upstream passage portion 8B is open upstream at the outer peripheral surface 5a of the bottom portion 5 and is open downstream at the inner peripheral surface 5b of the bottom portion 5, so that the exhaust gas can be positively discharged. It can be taken in and guided to the through hole 7 more smoothly. By providing the upstream passage portion 8B in this way, the exhaust gas can easily flow into the through hole 7, so that the formation of deposits in the injection hole 32 of the injector 3 and its periphery can be more effectively suppressed.

(8)貫通孔7の下方に位置する通路部8が少なくとも一つ設けられるため、例えば添加剤が重力の作用によりインジェクタ3の噴射孔32から下方へ滴下,流下した場合に、この添加剤を貫通孔7の下方の通路部8から吹き出る排気で効果的に吹き飛ばすことができる。よって、デポジットの生成をより効果的に抑制することができる。 (8) Since at least one passage portion 8 is provided below the through hole 7, for example, when the additive drips or flows downward from the injection hole 32 of the injector 3 due to the action of gravity, the additive can be removed. It is possible to effectively blow off the exhaust gas blown out from the passage portion 8 below the through hole 7 . Therefore, it is possible to more effectively suppress the generation of deposits.

(9)底部5及び混合部15の各外周には排気が流通可能な空間が設けられているため、底部5及び混合部15の各外周に排気を回り込ませることができる。底部5の外周に排気が回り込むことで、上流通路部8B以外の通路部8にも排気を取り入れやすくなることから、貫通孔7への排気供給をより促進することができる。よって、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32及びその周辺におけるデポジットの生成をより効果的に抑制することができる。 (9) Since the outer peripheries of the bottom portion 5 and the mixing portion 15 are provided with spaces through which the exhaust gas can flow, the exhaust gas can be made to flow around the outer peripheries of the bottom portion 5 and the mixing portion 15 . By allowing the exhaust gas to flow around the outer periphery of the bottom portion 5, it becomes easier for the exhaust gas to be taken into the passage portions 8 other than the upstream passage portion 8B. Therefore, it is possible to more effectively suppress the formation of deposits in the injection hole 32 of the injector 3 and its surroundings.

また、混合部15の外周に排気が回り込むことにより、混合部15に流入する排気に乱流が生じやすくなるとともに、混合部15の全周から混合部15内に排気を流入させることができる。よって、インジェクタ3から噴射された添加剤と排気との混合を混合部15内でより促進することができる。したがって、排気浄化性能の向上に寄与することができる。 In addition, since the exhaust gas flows around the outer periphery of the mixing unit 15, the exhaust gas flowing into the mixing unit 15 is likely to be turbulent, and the exhaust gas can flow into the mixing unit 15 from the entire circumference of the mixing unit 15. Therefore, the mixing of the additive injected from the injector 3 and the exhaust gas can be further promoted in the mixing section 15 . Therefore, it is possible to contribute to the improvement of exhaust purification performance.

[3.変形例]
前述した通路部8の形状は一例である。ボス部4は、前述した溝状の溝通路部8Aに代えて、図4に示すように、底部5に貫設された空洞状の通路部(第二通路部)8Cを有していてもよい。以下、この空洞状の通路部8Cを「洞通路部8C」ともいう。なお、図4では、前述した実施形態で説明した要素と同一又は対応する要素に同一の符号を付し、ここでは重複する説明を省略する。
[3. Modification]
The shape of the passage portion 8 described above is an example. The boss portion 4 may have a hollow passage portion (second passage portion) 8C penetrating through the bottom portion 5 as shown in FIG. good. Hereinafter, the hollow passage portion 8C is also referred to as the "sinus passage portion 8C". In addition, in FIG. 4, the same code|symbol is attached|subjected to the element same as the element demonstrated by embodiment mentioned above, or the corresponding element, and the overlapping description is abbreviate|omitted here.

洞通路部8Cは、溝通路部8A及び上流通路部8Bと同様に通路部8の一種であって、底部5の外周面5aから貫通孔7まで延設され、排気を貫通孔7へと導く機能をもつ。洞通路部8Cは、その両端部のみが底部5の外周面5a及び内周面5bにおいて開口した貫通孔である。言い換えると、洞通路部8Cの両端部以外の部分は、底部5の内部に設けられており、底部5の外部に露出しない。なお、本変形例では、洞通路部8Cが底部5の外周面5a及び内周面5bのそれぞれで円形状に開口する場合を例示する。また、本変形例では、溝通路部8Aが設けられないことから、底部5の端面5cの全域が平面状とされている。 The sinus passage portion 8C is a kind of passage portion 8, similar to the groove passage portion 8A and the upstream passage portion 8B, and extends from the outer peripheral surface 5a of the bottom portion 5 to the through hole 7 to direct exhaust gas to the through hole 7. It has the function of guiding. The sinus passage portion 8C is a through hole whose both ends are open at the outer peripheral surface 5a and the inner peripheral surface 5b of the bottom portion 5. As shown in FIG. In other words, portions other than both end portions of the sinus passage portion 8C are provided inside the bottom portion 5 and are not exposed to the outside of the bottom portion 5 . In addition, in this modified example, a case where the sinus passage portion 8C is opened in a circular shape at each of the outer peripheral surface 5a and the inner peripheral surface 5b of the bottom portion 5 is illustrated. Further, in this modified example, since the groove passage portion 8A is not provided, the entire end surface 5c of the bottom portion 5 is flat.

ボス部4に洞通路部8Cを少なくとも一つ設ければ、底部5の外側から貫通孔7まで排気をより確実に導くことができる。すなわち、洞通路部8Cは、両端部以外の部分が底部5の外部に露出しないため、底部5の外周面5a側から取り入れた排気を外部に漏らすことなく貫通孔7まで流すことができる。これにより、インジェクタ3の噴射孔32及びその周辺におけるデポジットの生成を抑制することができる。 By providing at least one sinus passage portion 8</b>C in the boss portion 4 , exhaust gas can be more reliably guided from the outside of the bottom portion 5 to the through hole 7 . That is, since the sinus passage portion 8C is not exposed to the outside of the bottom portion 5 except for both ends, the exhaust gas taken from the outer peripheral surface 5a side of the bottom portion 5 can flow to the through hole 7 without leaking to the outside. As a result, the formation of deposits in the injection hole 32 of the injector 3 and its periphery can be suppressed.

なお、ボス部4の構成は前述したものに限定されない。ボス部4は、溝通路部8Aと洞通路部8Cとの双方を有していてもよい。また、通路部8の個数,配置及び形状も、前述したものに限られない。例えば、通路部8は、複数の上流通路部8Bを有していてもよい。また、通路部8は、貫通孔7の径方向に沿って延在していてもよいし、曲線状に延在していてもよい。さらに、通路部8は、前述した形状以外の断面形状や開口形状を有していてもよい。 Note that the configuration of the boss portion 4 is not limited to that described above. The boss portion 4 may have both the groove passage portion 8A and the sinus passage portion 8C. Also, the number, arrangement and shape of the passage portions 8 are not limited to those described above. For example, the passage portion 8 may have a plurality of upstream passage portions 8B. Moreover, the passage portion 8 may extend along the radial direction of the through hole 7 or may extend in a curved line. Furthermore, the passage portion 8 may have a cross-sectional shape or an opening shape other than the shapes described above.

底部5の外周面5a及び内周面5bの各形状も特に限定されない。すなわち、貫通孔7は、円形状でなくてもよい。また、ボス部4は、少なくとも、貫通孔7が形成された底部5と、一つ以上の通路部8とを有していればよく、有底筒状以外の形状とされてもよいし、排気管2の他の部位と一体に形成されていてもよい。 Each shape of the outer peripheral surface 5a and the inner peripheral surface 5b of the bottom portion 5 is not particularly limited either. That is, the through hole 7 does not have to be circular. In addition, the boss portion 4 only needs to have at least the bottom portion 5 in which the through hole 7 is formed and one or more passage portions 8, and may have a shape other than a cylindrical shape with a bottom, It may be formed integrally with other parts of the exhaust pipe 2 .

前述したインジェクタ3の配置は一例である。インジェクタ3は、その噴射方向Dが下降傾斜する姿勢とされてなくてもよい。
前述した前段酸化触媒51,DPF52,SCR53及び後段酸化触媒54は、排気浄化装置1で浄化する排気の成分に応じて適宜設けられればよく、これらの一部が省略されてもよい。また、排気管2内には、これら以外の触媒やフィルタが更に設けられてもよい。
The arrangement of the injectors 3 described above is an example. The injector 3 does not have to be in a posture in which the injection direction D is inclined downward.
The above-described front-stage oxidation catalyst 51, DPF 52, SCR 53, and rear-stage oxidation catalyst 54 may be appropriately provided according to the components of the exhaust gas to be purified by the exhaust purification device 1, and some of them may be omitted. Moreover, a catalyst or a filter other than these may be further provided in the exhaust pipe 2 .

なお、インジェクタ3の下流に酸化触媒及びフィルタを設けるとともに、インジェクタ3によって噴射する添加剤として未燃燃料を採用してもよい。この場合も、排気浄化装置1によれば、前述したように添加剤由来のデポジットの生成を抑制することができる。また、この場合は、インジェクタ3から噴射された未燃燃料が酸化触媒において酸化することで排気温度が上昇するため、フィルタに捕集された排気中のPM(Particulate Matter;粒子状物質)を燃焼させることができる。よって、排気の浄化を促進することができる。 An oxidation catalyst and a filter may be provided downstream of the injector 3, and unburned fuel may be employed as the additive injected by the injector 3. Also in this case, according to the exhaust emission control device 1, it is possible to suppress the formation of additive-derived deposits as described above. Also, in this case, the unburned fuel injected from the injector 3 is oxidized in the oxidation catalyst and the exhaust temperature rises, so PM (Particulate Matter) in the exhaust collected by the filter is burned. can be made Therefore, purification of exhaust gas can be promoted.
