The exhaust pressure transmitting passage 48 is provided with a throttle means 50 as shown in FIGS. Diaphragm means 50
The throttle means 50 narrows the cross-sectional area of the exhaust pressure transmission passage 48 when the temperature of the throttle means 50 becomes higher than a predetermined temperature, and opens the cross-sectional area of the exhaust pressure transmission passage 48 when the temperature becomes lower than the predetermined temperature.
For example, the throttle means 50 may be configured such that when the temperature rises to 100 ° C. or higher, the cross section becomes a star shape at one end of the pipe, and when the temperature falls below 100 ° C., the cross section opens and becomes circular. Consists of alloy pipes. The pipe is fixed to the inside of the exhaust pressure transmission passage 48 at an end opposite to the end that takes the shape of a star and a circle (the end is circular regardless of the temperature).

Next, the operation will be described. In the low engine speed range, the pressure in the inlet pipe 14 is not high,
Diaphragm 4 in diaphragm actuator 40
2 is not moved, and the switching valve 38 keeps the bypass pipe 32 closed. Therefore, the exhaust is
The air flows through the flow path A in 0, and the flow is repeatedly silenced by the inner pipe and expanded by the expansion chamber to mute the sound and discharged from the outlet pipe 16. In this way, the muffled noise in the vehicle interior in the low-speed range is effectively reduced.

In the high engine speed range, the inlet pipe 1
Since the pressure in 4 is increasing, the diaphragm 42 in the diaphragm type actuator 40 is pushed and moved, and the switching valve 38 is switched to open the bypass pipe 32. Therefore, the exhaust gas flows through both the flow paths A and B, and flows mainly through the flow path B because the flow resistance of the flow path B is smaller. For this reason, the muffler flow path resistance is reduced, the engine back pressure is reduced, and the output of the engine is improved. In this way, the output can be maintained in the high-speed range.

Next, the operation of the condensed water will be described. When the engine is stopped, the temperature of the exhaust system decreases,
The water vapor generated by the combustion of the fuel contained in the residual exhaust gas condenses and starts to adhere to the inner wall of the exhaust pressure transmission passage 48. However, in this low temperature state, the throttle means 50 is in the open state, and the diameter of the exhaust pressure transmission passage 48 is about 100 mm or more. It does not occur that the transmission passage 48 is closed.

In this case, the adhered water is discharged to the exhaust pressure transmission passage 4.
8 flows toward the inlet pipe 14 along the inclination of 8 and exits into the muffler 10. Therefore, when the engine is restarted, the operation of the diaphragm actuator 40 is not hindered by the passage blockage of the exhaust pressure transmission passage 48 due to water in the exhaust pressure transmission passage 48 or ice that has been icy.

Water vapor in the exhaust gas does not adhere regardless of whether 0 is in the throttle state. At this time, since the throttle means 50 is in the throttled state, the diaphragm type actuator 40 of the exhaust pulsation.
Is suppressed, and the micro vibration of the diaphragm 42 and the micro vibration of the switching valve 38 due to the micro vibration are also suppressed, so that chattering noise is not generated.
