However, such an exhaust purification device cannot obtain sufficient HC purification performance under conditions where the exhaust gas temperature is not sufficiently warmed at the time of engine start. In the case of the electrothermal catalyst, even if the electrothermal catalyst is heated immediately after the engine is started, HC discharged from the engine is not purified within a time period until it is sufficiently heated. An exhaust gas purification device that uses a hydrocarbon adsorption catalyst can sufficiently purify hydrocarbons immediately after the engine is started, but as the exhaust temperature rises, the adsorbed hydrocarbons are desorbed and the amount of hydrocarbons discharged increases. Will end up. The exhaust gas purifying catalyst device in which the hydrocarbon adsorbing catalyst and the three-way catalyst are combined has a problem that the temperature of the hydrocarbon adsorbing catalyst cannot be accurately controlled and the desorbed hydrocarbon cannot be sufficiently suppressed.

The electrothermal catalyst 2 for electrically heating the catalytic converter uses a honeycomb made of a metal carrier as a carrier and has a three-way catalyst layer coated on the surface thereof as a catalyst. The current value is controlled at a constant voltage to heat the catalyst. By doing so, it is possible to raise the temperature in the coat layer and rapidly raise the catalytic activity. The catalyst obtained by coating the electrothermal catalyst 2 with a hydrocarbon adsorption catalyst has a function of adsorbing hydrocarbons and significantly reducing the exhausted hydrocarbons under the condition of low exhaust gas temperature immediately after the engine is started. It also has the property that the adsorbed hydrocarbons are desorbed when it rises. At this time, the desorption of hydrocarbons has a characteristic that the higher the heating rate of the catalyst layer, the more it deviates to the higher temperature side. By shifting the temperature at which hydrocarbons are desorbed to the high temperature side, the amount of hydrocarbons discharged can be suppressed even during actual traveling. However, even if the exhaust gas discharged from the engine 1 is simply passed through the hydrocarbon adsorption catalyst, the temperature rising rate is determined by the temperature of the exhaust gas, and it is difficult to suppress the desorption of hydrocarbons of the hydrocarbon adsorption catalyst. However, by controlling the exhaust gas temperature using the electrothermal catalyst 2, it becomes possible to suppress the desorption of hydrocarbons from the hydrocarbon adsorption catalyst, and it is possible to significantly reduce the exhausted hydrocarbons. .

As described above, according to the present invention, a catalyst coated with a hydrocarbon adsorption catalyst that adsorbs at least hydrocarbons is used as an electrothermal catalyst that electrically heats the catalytic converter, or As an electrothermal catalyst, a hydrocarbon adsorption catalyst that adsorbs hydrocarbons and a catalyst that has one or more three-way catalyst layers coated, and a three-way catalyst layer behind it are provided, and hydrocarbons with low exhaust gas temperature immediately after engine startup The electrothermal catalyst is not heated in the temperature range where the adsorption catalyst can adsorb hydrocarbons, but the electrothermal catalyst is controlled to be heated when the exhaust gas temperature rises to a temperature close to the temperature at which hydrocarbons are desorbed from the hydrocarbon adsorption catalyst. By providing a catalyst carrier for exhaust gas purification, which is characterized in that a honeycomb carrier is coated with a slurry containing zeolite powder as a hydrogen adsorption catalyst. Emissions of hydrocarbons immediately after engine startup can be significantly reduced.
