Abstract: An exhaust gas purification device for an internal combustion engine comprises, an exhaust passage including a catalyst for conveying exhaust gas discharged from the engine to the outside, and a bend formed by bending a portion of the exhaust passage directly upstream of the catalyst, the bend causing exhaust gas discharged from the engine to collide against a corner portion between an inlet end face of the catalyst and such portion of a wall of the exhaust passage that follows the outside of the bend, thereby increasing pressure at the corner portion, compared with the other portion of the inlet end face, and an additive injection valve fitted to the outside of the bend of the exhaust passage to inject an additive in such manner that the injected additive passes just above the corner portion and falls on the inlet end face of the catalytic converter.

Abstract: The exhaust gas purification device of an internal combustion engine of the present invention comprises an exhaust passage for guiding an exhaust gas exhausted from an engine to outside, a catalyst provided in the exhaust passage, an injection path connected on an upstream side of the catalyst in the exhaust passage, an additive injection valve installed in the injection path for supplying an additive to the catalyst through the injection path, and an inflow portion provided in a merging portion where the exhaust passage and the injection path merge for having a part of the exhaust gas flowing in the exhaust passage flow into the injection path.

Abstract: An exhaust purification system includes an oxidation catalyst disposed in an exhaust passageway of an engine, and a filter disposed downstream of the oxidation catalyst in the exhaust passageway. The exhaust purification system further includes an outlet temperature setting section for setting, as an outlet target temperature, a target value for an exhaust temperature which is detected on the downstream side of the filter in the exhaust passageway. The system further includes a heat loss quantity computing section for computing a heat loss quantity radiated from the filter to outside the exhaust passageway when exhaust discharged from the engine passes through the filter; and an inlet temperature setting section for setting, as an inlet target temperature on an upstream side of the filter, a temperature obtained by adding a loss temperature reduced by the heat loss quantity to the outlet target temperature.

Abstract: An emission control system, includes: an exhaust pipe portion, adapted to guide exhaust gas from an engine to outside; a catalyst, accommodated in the exhaust pipe portion; an additive injection valve, provided at the exhaust pipe portion located at upstream side of the catalyst, and configured to inject additives to be supplied to the catalyst toward a flow of the exhaust gas in the exhaust pipe portion. The exhaust pipe portion has a flow path section located at upstream side of the catalyst, which intersects an injection flow of the additives injected by the additive injection valve, and the flow path section is made to have substantially the same shape as an injection region of the injection flow which confronts the exhaust gas.

Abstract: A low NOx combustion mode is executed in which the fuel injected timing IT is greatly advanced to 36° BTDC as compared with a normal value of roughly 10° BTDC. At this fuel injection timing IT, the smoke emission amount is suppressed below an extremely low value, even if the EGR ratio Regr is increased to about 56%, and the NOx emission amount is suppressed owing to a large amount of EGR, so that the smoke and NOx can be reduced at the same time.
