Abstract
An additive-agent diffusion plate structure in an exhaust passage for an engine includes: an injection port that injects an additive agent, and that is disposed so that the injected additive agent crosses the exhaust passage; and an additive-agent diffusion plate that diffuses the additive agent injected from the injection port into the exhaust passage, at a position upstream of an exhaust gas purification device disposed in the exhaust passage. The additive-agent diffusion plate includes: a bottom wall that is disposed to extend in an exhaust-gas flow direction in which exhaust gas flows; a collision portion with which the additive agent injected into the exhaust passage collides; and a passage portion that is open behind the collision portion, when the additive-agent diffusion plate is seen from a position of the injection port.
