Abstract:
1. An exhaust device for a work vehicle comprising: an exhaust pipe for guiding exhaust to a vehicle exterior, the exhaust pipe including: an exhaust guide pipe into which exhaust from an engine is introduced, a bending section for changing an exhaust direction being formed partway along the exhaust guide pipe; an external protective pipe that externally fits onto a downstream-side guide pipe positioned further downstream, with respect to the exhaust direction, than the bending section, and that forms a passage for external air in a space bounded on one side by the downstream-side guide pipe; an ejector section for suctioning and introducing external air between an outer periphery of the exhaust guide pipe and an inner periphery of the external protective pipe by an ejector effect caused by flowing of the exhaust, the ejector section being provided downstream of the bending section; and an external air introduction section provided to an upstream-side end section of the external protective pipe, the external air introduction section covering an outer periphery of the downstream-side guide pipe of the exhaust guide pipe, and extending over the bending section of the exhaust guide pipe to a side opposite that of a downstream-side end section of the downstream-side guide pipe, and an end of the extension being open to the exterior.
