A work vehicle includes an engine, a post-processing device, and a cooling fan. The engine is mounted on a front portion of a travelling machine body. The post-processing device purifies exhaust gas of the engine. The cooling fan water-cools the engine. The cooling fan is located in front of the engine. The cooling fan, the engine, and the post-processing device are covered with a hood. The hood includes a shield. The shield covers a lower section of the post-processing device and one side of the engine. The shield is a perforated plate including a plurality of holes.

The present invention relates to a device for transferring exhaust gas between a front and rear carriage of a mobile working machine, in particular a dump truck, separated by an articulated pivot joint, which working machine has a pipe section, which is variable in it length, for conducting exhaust gas, a first flexible hose cooperating with a first end portion of the pipe section for introducing exhaust gas into the pipe section, and a second flexible hose cooperating with a second end portion of the pipe section for discharging exhaust gas from the pipe section. The device is characterized in that a first cardan shaft is provided in the first end portion, the distal end of which is configured to be rigidly attached to a fastening section of the front carriage or the rear carriage of the working machine, and a second cardan shaft is provided in the second end region.

A straddle-type vehicle comprises a radiator through which air flowing from a front flows in a forward and rearward direction of a vehicle body; an engine which generates driving power for allowing the straddle-type vehicle to travel, the engine being disposed rearward of the radiator; and a cover unit covering from above a space formed between the radiator and the engine, and the engine, wherein the cover unit includes: a hard cover which is located at a front side of the cover unit, extends rearward from the radiator, and covers the space formed between the radiator and the engine; and a soft cover which is located at a rear side of the cover unit, extends rearward from the hard cover, and covers the engine.

A rear spoiler for a muffler of a vehicle includes fixing units, mounted to a left side and a right side of the muffler, and locking units, formed at a left side and a right side of a spoiler body so as to be locked to the fixing units. Each of the locking units includes an elastic support portion, which has a fixing hook and a bolt hole formed below the fixing hook. Each of the fixing units also includes a bracket mounted to the muffler, a first hole through which the fixing hook passes, a second hole in which the fixing hook that has passed through the first hole is fitted, a bolt hole formed below the first and second holes, and a bolt fastened into the bolt hole formed in the bracket via the bolt hole formed in the elastic support portion.

An exhaust duct has a riser duct section which is connected to an exhaust port having such an inlet port at a lower portion of the riser duct section as is connected to an exhaust port for the combustion gas. The riser duct section extends upward along an external surface of the combustion box. A horizontal direction perpendicular to the front-to-back direction is defined as a lateral direction, then the riser duct section is formed into a flat shape having a smaller dimension in the front-to-back direction than the dimension in the lateral direction. Fluctuations in width between front-side and back-side plate parts of the riser duct section are devised to be restrained, and increase in size can be avoided. The riser duct section has a rail inside the riser duct section, the rail being elongated in the vertical direction and connecting together the front-side and the back-side plate parts.

An arrangement structure of an exhaust gas sensor includes an exhaust pipe that extends from an engine for a vehicle to form a part of an exhaust flow path, a catalytic device that purifies exhaust gas flowing through the exhaust flow path, and a first exhaust gas sensor that detects a predetermined component in the exhaust gas. The exhaust pipe is led out from a front side of the engine to one side in a left-right direction of the engine, and extends rearward so as to be routed on a lateral side of the engine. The catalytic device is arranged in the middle of the exhaust pipe on the lateral side of the engine. The first exhaust gas sensor is arranged on the lateral side of the engine and on an upstream side or a downstream side of the catalytic device in the exhaust pipe.

An exhaust manifold for use with an internal combustion engine, the exhaust manifold including a body, one or more fluid passageways defined by the body, a valve in fluid communication with at least one of the one or more fluid passageways, the valve being adjustable between an open configuration and a closed configuration, a mounting bracket supported by the body, and an actuator in operable communication with the valve and configured to adjust the valve between the open and closed configurations, and wherein the actuator is coupled to the mounting bracket.

An exhaust after-treatment mounting arrangement is provided that is mounted outside of an engine compartment and has a perforated enclosure allowing air to permeate the enclosure and establish an airflow through the enclosure to maintain part integrity of components of an exhaust after-treatment system with maximum temperature thresholds. Components of the exhaust after-treatment system may be mounted to permit movement of such components relative to upstream and downstream components in the exhaust system. The enclosure is configured to prevent contact of the hot components by operators and/or flammable materials with small venting holes through top surfaces of the enclosure and large vent holes in bottom areas of the box that allow large volumes of air to easily flow into the enclosure.

A drive system for driving a motor vehicle is provided. The drive system includes a first turbocharger, a second turbocharger, and an internal combustion engine. The first turbocharger and the second turbocharger are, for the drive of the motor vehicle, operatively connected to the internal combustion engine. The first turbocharger and the second turbocharger are, in a height direction of a crankcase of the internal combustion engine, arranged one above the other in a defined corridor adjacent to the crankcase. The invention also provides a motor vehicle including the drive system.

[Task] A task is to improve the flexibility for setting a muffler and sufficiently secure the length of a catalyst while making a V-type engine compact.

[Solution] A V-type engine (1) includes an engine body (3) including a crankcase (7) configured to rotatably support a crankshaft (11), and a first and second cylinder banks (8, 9) extending from the crankcase (7), an exhaust collecting pipe (31) connected to the first and second cylinder banks (8, 9), a catalyst (32) accommodated in the exhaust collecting pipe (31), and a muffler (33) detachably connected to the exhaust collecting pipe (31), wherein the catalyst (32) extends in a height direction of the engine body (3) from a base end side of the first cylinder bank (8) to a distal end side of the first cylinder bank (8).
