An exhaust gas purification device includes a pre-oxidation catalyst disposed in an exhaust gas passage and a muffler that is provided in such a manner as to surround the pre-oxidation catalyst, and discharges exhaust gas while reducing noise. The muffler has an inlet which is connected to an upstream side exhaust pipe and an outlet which is connected to a downstream side exhaust pipe. The exhaust gas purification device includes a downstream side purification device that is disposed in the exhaust gas passage, and accommodates a second oxidation catalyst and a particulate matter removing filter. The exhaust gas is discharged to the atmosphere after the exhaust gas flows through the downstream side purification device.

An exhaust structure of an internal combustion engine having an exhaust passage communicating between an exhaust port and an exhaust pipe. The exhaust structure includes a heat insulating component covering an inner wall of the exhaust port, the heat insulating component includes a first abutting portion disposed at a first side of the heat insulating component at a combustion chamber side and abutting an inner wall of the exhaust port, a second abutting portion disposed at a second side of the heat insulating component at an exhaust pipe side and abutting the inner wall, and a middle section disposed between the first side and the second side. A gap is formed between the middle section and the inner wall, and a bent portion connecting the middle section and the first abutting portion is bending toward the inner wall of the exhaust port from the middle section.

An exhaust muffler includes a first muffler section having a tubular member made up of an inner pipe to which an exhaust pipe is connected and an outer pipe covering the inner pipe, and a connector connecting the tubular member and a second muffler section to each other, and the second muffler section having an outer shell, a first partition wall, a second partition wall, and a third partition wall. Exhaust gases delivered from the exhaust pipe are discharged from the first muffler section and the second muffler section out of the exhaust muffler. The second muffler section has a cross-sectional area larger than a cross-sectional area of the tubular member. The exhaust muffler includes a first expansion chamber, a second expansion chamber, and a third expansion chamber. The second muffler section includes a fluid communication pipe extending through the first partition wall and the second partition wall for leading exhaust gases from the first expansion chamber into the second expansion chamber, and an exhaust passage pipe held in fluid communication with the third expansion chamber and extending through the second partition and the third partition wall. The second partition wall has a fluid communication hole defined therein that provides fluid communication between the second expansion chamber and the third expansion chamber. There is thus provided an engine exhaust device capable of increasing a silencing capability by increasing the length of a route through which the exhaust gases flow while maintaining the length of the exhaust device.
