The present invention relates to a catalyst for purifying exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine, a filter for purifying fine particles, and a catalyst for purifying and / or deodorizing a combustion gas using various gases and petroleum as fuel. The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a ceramic honeycomb structure used as a carrier.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, a catalytic converter mounted on an automobile is generally used in a direction perpendicular to the through holes 11-1 and 11-2 through which exhaust gas passes as shown in FIG. 4 so as to withstand severe vibration during use. (Hereinafter referred to as “radial direction”), pressure is applied through support materials 12-1 to 12-3 (hereinafter referred to as “cushion material”) having cushioning properties, and further, cushion material 12-1 is applied in the direction of the through hole.
The structure is such that the position is fixed by the plate material 13 or the position is fixed directly by the plate material 13 and supported.

However, in the case of the above structure, the through-hole 11-2 of the honeycomb structure of the cushion material portion abutted in the through-hole direction.
Exhaust gas cannot pass through, and the catalyst in that portion is wasted. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 5, there is also a method of using only a sealing material 14 having a cushioning property such as a ceramic mat (hereinafter referred to as a sealing material) on all sides and supporting only in a radial direction in order to save precious metal catalysts. Has been put to practical use.

In addition, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 50-22020, in order to prevent the ceramic honeycomb structure from slipping in the axial direction, a ceramic layer having a coating layer that is uneven in the direction of a through hole is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the honeycomb structure. Honeycomb structures are also known.

Further, Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 54-82215 discloses a ceramic honeycomb structure in which a concave portion is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the honeycomb structure perpendicular to a through hole in order to prevent the ceramic honeycomb structure from slipping in the axial direction.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, the method of supporting only in the radial direction, which is partially put into practical use, requires increasing the pressure applied in the radial direction so that the catalyst does not shift in the direction of the through-hole due to intense vibration during use. Therefore, when the thickness of the partition wall of the ceramic honeycomb structure is relatively thick such as 0.25 to 0.3 mm and the external pressure strength is high, it is possible to support only in the radial direction, but the thickness of the partition wall is small. For example, when the thickness is relatively thin, for example, 0.15 to 0.20 mm, there is a problem that the external pressure strength is too low to be applied.

In the technique disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 50-27220, a honeycomb structure formed by extrusion using a widely used cordierite material has a coating having irregularities in the direction of a through hole formed in a main body and an outer peripheral surface. Since the thermal expansion with the layer cannot be at the same level, there is a problem that the coating layer is peeled off or cracks are formed in the coating layer, and there is a problem that the cost is increased due to an increase in the number of steps for providing the coating layer.

Further, in the technique disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 54-82215, the method of manufacturing the convex locking portion is not described, but the honeycomb structure is similar to the above-described Japanese Utility Model Application No. 50-27220. In the case of forming after extrusion, there is a problem similar to that of Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 50-22720, and in the case of being recessed, exhaust gas cannot pass through the outer peripheral portion of the honeycomb structure corresponding to the recessed depth. There was a problem that the catalyst wasted.

An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, and to provide a method for manufacturing a ceramic honeycomb structure that enables, for example, a low-cost and reliable prevention of misalignment of a honeycomb structure in a through-hole direction when used as a catalytic converter. It is something to offer.

(Means for Solving the Problems) According to a method for manufacturing a ceramic honeycomb structure of the present invention by extruding a ceramic honeycomb structure for a catalyst carrier, vibration is applied in the extrusion direction immediately after the extrusion, so that the ceramic honeycomb structure is perpendicular to the through hole. The present invention is characterized in that a honeycomb structure having a concavo-convex shape in a through-hole direction only in an outer peripheral portion including an outer wall in a simple cross-section in a through-hole direction is obtained.

(Operation) In the above-described configuration, since only the outer peripheral portion including the outer wall having a cross section perpendicular to the through hole of the ceramic honeycomb structure is uneven in the direction of the through hole, the obtained honeycomb structure is sealed and / or cushioned. In addition, when incorporated as a converter, the sealing material and / or the cushioning material is hardly inserted into the concave portion, so that the supporting force of the honeycomb structure is increased, and even if only the support in the radial direction is performed, the displacement in the direction of the through hole is effectively prevented.

For this reason, since the catalyst of the cushion material portion which has been in contact with the through hole of the conventional outer peripheral portion acts so that it can be omitted,
Precious metals are not wasted, and the volume of the catalyst can be reduced, so that the volume of the converter can be reduced.

In order to obtain this honeycomb structure, a raw material that becomes cordierite when fired (hereinafter referred to as “cordierite raw material”) is extruded and extruded to an appropriate length while extruding a soft honeycomb structure immediately after being extruded, It can be obtained by applying a vibration of several hertz to the end face of the tip while extruding it while extruding it in a direction opposite to the pushing direction, and then cutting, drying and firing like a general honeycomb structure. Thereby, it is possible to obtain a ceramic honeycomb structure in which only the outer wall and the outer peripheral portion are uneven in the through hole direction.

As can be seen from the results in Table 1 above, those that can withstand the heating vibration test simulating actual use conditions and can be used for practical use are those of the relatively weak ceramic honeycomb structure having an external pressure strength of 20 kgf / cm 2 or less. In this case, the product of the present invention and the conventional product are canned with a gentle pressure and held in the direction of the through hole, and when the conventional product is held only on the side that is not held in the direction of the through hole, the external pressure strength is 50 kgf / cm.
