Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce exhaust noise in normal rotation range and improve the output in high rotation range by providing a switch valve between an inlet and an outlet of a muffler to control the opening according to back pressure. CONSTITUTION:A switch valve 7 is provided in an lotlet opening 6 formed of an outlet pipe 5 of a muffler 2 to be driven by an actuator 9 operated according to the signal from a rotational frequency sensor 8. This switch valve 7 is fully opened when the rotational frequency of an engine exceeds a predetermined value and gradually lessens the opening as the rotational frequency is less and less than the predetermined value to throttle the outlet of the muffler. Thus, in the normal rotation range, exhaust noise is reduced, while sufficient output is provided in the high rotation range.
