This breather device separates engine oil included in a blow-by gas. The breather device comprises a first route, an acceleration route, a branching route, and turn-back routes. The blow-by gas flows to the first route. The acceleration route is connected to a downstream side of the first route, and has a flow channel cross-sectional area smaller than that of the first route. The branching route is connected to a downstream side of the acceleration route, configured including a wall part orthogonal to the acceleration route, and branched into two routes by the wall part. The turn-back routes are connected to one route branching at the branching route, and are turned back so as to be parallel to the acceleration route and to head in the opposite direction from a progressing direction.

Breather device and engine

An engine device having gas injectors attached to an intake manifold fixed to a side surface of a cylinder head. A fuel gas injected from the gas injectors is premixed in the intake manifold, and the resulting gas is supplied to a plurality of cylinders and ignited by ignition devices. The intake manifold has a configuration in which a plurality of intake branch pipes communicating with the cylinders are branched from an intake collecting pipe at an air supply side. The intake branch pipes include bent portions. In the bent portions of the intake branch pipes, inside inner walls near the cylinder head are bent at an acute angle.
