Abstract:
A tail pipe part includes a tail pipe to constitute part of the tail pipe, and has a hollow member connected with the tail pipe in axial alignment with the tail pipe to be positioned within an area covering a node portion in a sound pressure distribution of an air column resonance caused in the tail pipe, and a short pipe included in the hollow member and having a predetermined length to extend in the axial direction of the tail pipe, the short pipe having an open end at the upstream end thereof and a closed end at the downstream end thereof, the closed end being constituted by a bottom plate positioned at almost the same position as that of the node portion in the sound pressure distribution of a standing wave formed by the air column resonance caused in the tail pipe.
