Abstract
A catalytic converter comprises: a catalyst carrier that purifies exhaust gases from an internal combustion engine; and a catalyst housing tube that houses the catalyst carrier. The catalyst housing tube comprises: an inlet-side conical part that comprises an exhaust-gas inlet, an inner diameter of the inlet-side conical part increasing as a distance from the exhaust-gas inlet increases; a tube part that comprises the catalyst carrier arranged therein; and, an outlet-side conical part that comprises an exhaust-gas outlet, an inner diameter of the outlet-side conical part increasing as a distance from the exhaust-gas outlet increases. A conical inner tube is further provided inside the inlet-side conical part, a diameter of the conical inner tube being smaller than that of the inlet-side conical part, and, the inlet-side conical part and the conical inner tube form a double structure upstream of the catalyst carrier.
