Abstract
A band-like member which is made to wrap on an outer periphery of an exhaust pipe is interposed between the exhaust pipe and a heat insulator covering the exhaust pipe. Both end portions of the band-like member in the length direction and attaching portions formed at a pair of edge portions along the length direction of the heat insulator oppose each other and overlap each other. These members are fastened together by a bolt and nut, which have interposed therebetween a collar to ensure proper separation of ends of the band-like member and heat insulator.
