Abstract
A particulate filter 23 is configured by being provided with, arranged side by side, a plurality of honeycomb-shaped segments 29, 30, 31 having a plurality of cells 32. The density of cells in the segments 30, 31 disposed in the outer circumference part is set to be lower than the density of cells in the segments 29 disposed in the center part. In addition, the segments 30, 31 disposed in the outer circumference part are configured so that the density of the cells 32 becomes lower as the area of the end face becomes smaller.
Claims3
A particulate filter comprising a plurality of honeycomb-shaped segments configured to be provided in parallel, the segment including a plurality of cells, wherein a density of cells of the segment disposed in an outer circumference part is set to be lower than a density of cells of the segment disposed in a center part, and the segment disposed in the outer circumference part is configured to have the density of the cells thereof which is lower as an end surface of the segment disposed in the outer circumference part has smaller area relative to areas of remaining segments disposed in the outer circumference part.
