Abstract:
1. A wall flow type exhaust gas purification filter, comprising: a honeycomb structure body including a porous partition wall defining and forming a plurality of cells as through channels of a fluid, which extend from a first end face to a second end face, and plugging portions disposed at the first end face at a predetermined cell of the plurality of cells and at the second end face at remaining cell, wherein the plurality of cells include an inlet opening cell that is open at an inflow-side end face of the fluid and is provided with an outflow-side plugging portion at an outflow-side end face of the fluid; and an outlet opening cell that is provided with an inflow-side plugging portion at the inflow-side end face and is open at the outflow-side end face, the inlet opening cell has an apparently substantially hexagonal shape in cross section perpendicular to a central axis direction of the honeycomb structure body, the outlet opening cell has a substantially square shape in cross section perpendicular to the central axis direction of the honeycomb structure body, the plurality of cells are configured so that four inlet opening cells surround one outlet opening cell, where one predetermined side of an inlet opening cell and one side of the outlet opening cell adjacent to the predetermined side have a substantially same length and are substantially parallel to each other, distance a between the partition wall defining a first side of the outlet opening cell and the partition wall defining a second side opposed to the first side of the outlet opening cell is in a range of exceeding 0.8 mm and less than 2.4 mm, and distance b between the partition wall defining a third side of the inlet opening cell, the third side being substantially parallel and adjacent to one side of the outlet opening cell and the partition wall defining a fourth side opposed to the third side of the inlet opening cell has a ratio to the distance a in a range exceeding 0.4 and less than 1.1.
