An exhaust purification device for an engine comprises a catalyst device that purifies the exhaust gas of the engine by using an additive; a venturi-shaped mixing chamber that is disposed upstream from the catalyst device and extends from a taper portion with a diameter tapering downstream to continue to a constricted portion with a minimum diameter and then to a flared portion with a diameter that is increased in the downstream direction; a swirl-generating device that is disposed in vicinity of a most upstream section of the taper portion of the mixing chamber and generates a swirling flow in the exhaust gas; and an additive-injection device that is disposed upstream from the constricted portion of the mixing chamber and downstream from the swirl-generating device, and injects the additive into the mixing chamber.

Exhaust purification device for engine

An exhaust purification device for an engine comprises a catalytic device for purifying exhaust by using an additive, a deflecting device for allowing the exhaust to flow through and causing the exhaust to be agitated, upstream of the catalytic device, an additive injection device for injecting an additive, downstream of the deflecting device, a temperature detection device for detecting exhaust temperature, downstream of the deflecting device, and a control unit for controlling the additive injection device on the basis of the exhaust temperature detected by the temperature detection device. The temperature detection device has a temperature detection part located within a region where the exhaust having passed through the deflecting device has increased velocity.
