Abstract:
An integrated exhaust heat recovery device positioned in an exhaust gas channel includes: a positioning section that comprises a tubular section extending in a downward-flow direction of exhaust gas, and has an exhaust gas purification device positioned therein; a heat exchange section positioned on a downstream side of the positioning section and having a heat exchanger; and an exhaust gas control unit for introducing exhaust gas, which flows from the positioning section, to the heat exchange section. The heat exchanger includes: a plurality of plates positioned so as to overlap in the downward-flow direction; an intake section for causing fluid to flow into heat exchange channels inside the plurality of plates from an intake port that opens laterally; and a discharge section for causing fluid to exit from the heat exchange channels through a discharge port that opens laterally.

Claim (Index 1):
An integrated exhaust heat recovery device positioned in an exhaust gas channel which is a channel for exhaust gas from an engine, comprising:\n a positioning section that comprises a tubular section extending in a downward-flow direction toward a downstream side of the exhaust gas channel, a purification device for purifying the exhaust gas being positioned in the positioning section; a heat exchange section that comprises a heat exchanger for transmitting heat of the exhaust gas to a fluid, the heat exchange section positioned on a downstream side of the positioning section; and an exhaust gas control unit that introduces the exhaust gas, which flows from the positioning section, to the heat exchange section, the heat exchanger comprising: a plurality of plates that are flat sections positioned so as to overlap in the downward-flow direction, the plurality of plates having fluid channels inside thereof; an intake section that couples one ends of the heat exchange channels of the plurality of plates, the intake section causing the fluid, which flows in through an intake port that opens laterally in the downward-flow direction, to flow into the heat exchange channels of the plurality of plates; and a discharge section that couples the other ends of the heat exchange channels of the plurality of plates, the discharge section causing the fluid that flows down through the heat exchange channels to exit through a discharge port that opens laterally in the downward-flow direction.
