Abstract
Provided is an exhaust purification device for an internal combustion engine, wherein the operation of an internal combustion engine can be prevented from being maintained when a particulate filter is melted. An exhaust purification device is comprised of a particulate filter; a downstream-side temperature sensor which detects a downstream-side exhaust temperature; a filter temperature sensor which detects a filter temperature; an exhaust differential pressure detection device which calculates an exhaust differential pressure between an upstream-side exhaust pressure and a downstream-side exhaust pressure at predetermined time intervals; a notification device; and an ECU which controls the internal combustion engine based on a differential pressure variation first and second exhaust differential pressures or the downstream-side exhaust temperature.
