Abstract

A catalyst structure for exhaust gas cleaning obtained by superimposing flat plate-like catalyst elements composed of a flat part, which is a main structural part, and a linear spacer part composed of raised strips and recessed strips so that a gas flow channel is ensured along the lengthwise direction of the spacer part, wherein the flat part has at least one baffle part composed of a leg plate erectly provided on the flat part with a height that is less than that of the spacer part with reference to the flat part, and a top plate disposed substantially parallel to the flat part from the upper end of the leg plate. Turbulence can be imparted by the baffle part to gas that flows to the gas flow channel.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A catalyst structure for cleaning exhaust gas, the catalyst structure comprising:
flat plate-like catalyst elements, wherein each of the flat plate-like catalyst elements is composed of a flat part, which is a main structural part, and a linear spacer part composed of raised strips and recessed strips,
wherein the flat plate-like catalyst elements are superimposed so that a gas flow channel is ensured along a lengthwise direction of the linear spacer part,
wherein the flat part has at least one baffle part composed of a leg plate erectly provided on the flat part with a height that is less than that of the spacer part with reference to the flat part, and a top plate disposed substantially parallel to the flat part from the upper end of the leg plate,
whereby turbulence can be imparted by the baffle part to gas that flows in the gas flow channel.

2. The catalyst structure according to claim 1 , wherein a baffle part in one plate-like catalyst element is arranged at the same position as that of a baffle part in an adjacent superimposed plate-like catalyst element as viewed from a direction normal to the flat part.

3. The catalyst structure according to claim 1 , wherein the direction of the baffle part in one plate-like catalyst element is the same as the direction of the baffle part in an adjacent superimposed plate-like catalyst element.

4. The catalyst structure according to claim 1 , wherein the direction of the baffle part in one plate-like catalyst element is opposite to the direction of the baffle part in an adjacent superimposed plate-like catalyst element.

5. The catalyst structure according to claim 1 , wherein the flat part has a hole passing through the flat part from the front surface to the rear surface in a section having the baffle part.

6. The catalyst structure according to claim 1 , wherein the height of the top plate with reference to the flat part is ⅖ to ⅗ of the height of the spacer part with reference to the flat part.
