In the conventional exhaust pipe air introducing device configured as described above, the normal temperature air, which is lower in temperature than the exhaust gas, is supplied from the time when the first and second catalysts are low in temperature. Since the gas is introduced, the temperature of the exhaust gas passing through the catalyst housing portions 6 and 7 is lowered, and the activation of the catalyst is delayed, which causes a problem that the exhaust gas purification efficiency is lowered. . Further, the distribution ratio of the introduced air amount to the first and second catalysts is constant until the temperature of the second catalyst reaches a set value and the introduction of air to the first catalyst is stopped. On the other hand, since the NO X emission amount gradually increases as the temperature of the internal combustion engine 1 rises, there is a problem that the NO X cannot be efficiently purified until the switching valve 9 is switched.
