Abstract

A engine device for a work vehicle, in which an engine, a first case, and a second case can be constituted in the same vibration structure, and exhaust gas path structure between the engine and the second case can be constituted in such a manner as to reduce costs. The engine device for a work vehicle according to the present invention of the instant application includes the first case for removing particulate matter in exhaust gas of the engine and the second case for removing nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas of the engine, and configured to connect the first case to the second case via a urea mixing pipe. The engine, the first case, and the second case are integrally adhered, and the engine, the first case, and the second case are configured to be integrally vibrated in a swingable manner.

Claims (10)

1. An engine device for a work vehicle, the engine device comprising: a first case configured to remove particulate matter in an exhaust gas of an engine, a second case for removing nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas of the engine, and a urea mixing pipe configured to connect the first case to the second case, wherein the first case and the second case are integrally attached by case fixing bodies, fastening bands, and supporting frame bodies to form an exhaust gas purification unit, and wherein a plurality of supporting leg bodies are vertically installed in a cylinder head of the engine, and a supporting stand is coupled on an upper end side of the first plurality of supporting leg bodies, and the supporting stand is attached to an upper surface side of the engine in an approximately horizontal state, and the case fixing bodies are attached to an upper surface side of the supporting stand via the supporting frame bodies, and wherein the engine, the first case, and the second case are configured to be integrally vibrated in a swingable manner, wherein an inlet pipe of the first case is arranged on a side where an exhaust manifold of the engine is installed, and wherein the second case is juxtaposed on a lateral part of the first case on an installation side of a cooling fan of the engine, and wherein the urea mixing pipe is supported between the first case and the second case on an upper surface side of the first and second cases.

2. The engine device for the work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the work vehicle comprises an operating cabin arranged in a rear of a hood in which the engine is internally installed, and wherein a urea water tank for exhaust gas purification is installed between a front portion of the operating cabin and a rear portion of the engine.

3. The engine device for the work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the first case is divided into an exhaust intake side case and an exhaust discharge side case, and the exhaust discharge side case is configured to be separable in a state where the exhaust intake side case is supported on the engine side.

4. The engine device for the work vehicle according to claim 3 , further comprising an exhaust outlet pipe configured to couple the first case with the urea mixing pipe, and wherein the exhaust outlet pipe is extended on an outer side in a direction intersecting with a transfer direction of the exhaust gas, on an outer side of the exhaust discharge side case, and wherein a coupling portion between the urea mixing pipe and the exhaust outlet pipe is disposed at a position deviated from a separation locus of the exhaust discharge side case separated in the transfer direction of the exhaust gas.

5. The engine device for the work vehicle according to claim 3 , further comprising a first clamping body for adhering the exhaust intake side case and the second case; and a second clamping body for adhering the exhaust discharge side case and the second case, and wherein the first case and the second case are integrally attached with each clamping body, thereby forming an exhaust purification unit.

6. The engine device for a work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of supporting leg bodies comprises three leg bodies.

7. The engine device for a work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of supporting leg bodies comprises a front portion supporting leg body, a lateral portion supporting leg body, and a rear portion supporting leg body.

8. The engine device for a work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of supporting leg bodies extends longitudinally in a direction from the cylinder head to the supporting stand.

9. The engine device for a work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein a first of the fastening bands is operably connected to the first case and a second of the fastening bands is operably connected to the second case, and wherein each fastening band is operably connected to one of the case fixing bodies.

10. The engine device for a work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the first case is mounted in such a manner that the exhaust gas in the first case can transfer in a direction intersecting with a longitudinal axis of an output shaft of the engine.
