Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 112 words
An exhaust device for a working machine comprising: an internal combustion engine mounted as a power source; a muffler connected to said internal combustion engine for discharging exhaust gas delivered from the internal combustion engine while damping its sound, said muffler having an outlet opening; a blower driven by said internal combustion engine; a mixing tubular member disposed opposite to the outlet opening of the muffler through a space interposed between the tubular member and the muffler; and an air-flow passage for introducing a portion of pressurized air from said blower into the inside of an annular air guide wall on the outer periphery of said outlet opening in a tangential direction.
