- a solid material derived from the reducing agent is deposited on the wall surface.
- the solid material derived from the reducing agent is easily attached or deposited on the step portion (the portion indicated by the arrow B in FIG. 4) at the boundary between the recess 21 and the exhaust passage 2.
- the temperature raising apparatus of this embodiment includes a distribution plate 11 that distributes the flame generated by the fuel addition valve 6 and the glow plug 7 to the particulate filter 10, the stepped portion B, and the mixer 8.
- the distribution plate 11 is disposed at a position downstream of the heat generating portion of the glow plug 7 on the flight path of the fuel injected from the fuel addition valve 6. At this time, the distribution plate 11 is arranged so that the fuel or flame that has collided with the distribution plate 11 reaches the mixer 8 through the gap between the particulate filter 10 and the exhaust passage 2.
- the distribution plate 11 is disposed substantially parallel to the axial direction of the exhaust passage 2.
- the flame generated by the fuel addition valve 6 and the glow plug 7 are dispersed in the radial direction of the exhaust passage 2.
- the flame dispersed near the periphery of the exhaust passage 2 flows into the gap between the particulate filter 10 and the exhaust passage 2.
- the flame dispersed near the center of the exhaust passage 2 collides with the upstream end face of the particulate filter 10 and then flows into the gap between the particulate filter 10 and the exhaust passage 2.
- the flame that has flowed into the gap between the particulate filter 10 and the exhaust passage 2 advances in the axial direction of the exhaust passage 2.
- a part of the flame advances in the axial direction along the peripheral edge of the exhaust passage 2, and the remaining flame diffuses radially inward of the exhaust passage 2. Then go downstream. That is, the flame reaches the mixer 8 while spreading in the radial direction downstream from the downstream end face of the particulate filter 10.
- the flame generated by the fuel addition valve 6 and the glow plug 7 is distributed to the particulate filter 10, the stepped portion B, and the mixer 8.
- the solid matter adhering to or depositing on the stepped portion B or the mixer 8 is removed without being modified into a hardly fusible substance such as cyanuric acid or melanin.
- the heat of the flame is transmitted to the outer peripheral surface of the particulate filter 10. In addition, it is possible to quickly raise the temperature of the particulate filter 10.
- the flame reaches the mixer 8 while spreading in the radial direction downstream from the downstream end face of the particulate filter 10, the flame can reach almost the entire area of the upstream end face of the mixer 8.
- the solid matter derived from the reducing agent adhering to or depositing on the mixer 8 can be more reliably removed, and vaporization of the urea aqueous solution in the mixer 8 and thermal decomposition and hydrolysis of urea can be further promoted. .
- the temperature raising device for raising the temperature of the particulate filter 10 and the temperature raising device for removing the solid material derived from the reducing agent can be shared. As a result, it is possible to suitably remove the solid material derived from the reducing agent while suppressing an increase in the number of parts.
