    摘要: An apparatus for diagnosing deterioration of an NOx storage-reduction catalyst for purifying an exhaust gas discharged from an internal engine, including an intake air amount detection unit for detecting an intake air amount to the internal combustion engine, an exhaust gas temperature detection unit for detecting the temperature of an exhaust gas passing through the NOx storage-reduction catalyst, an NOx purification rate detection unit for detecting NOx in an exhaust gas flowing into the NOx storage-reduction catalyst and in an exhaust gas flowing out of the NOx storage-reduction catalyst, thereby detecting an NOx purification rate, and a diagnostic unit for, when the temperature of the exhaust gas passing through the NOx storage-reduction catalyst increases following an increase in the intake air flow rate to the internal combustion engine and in turn, the temperature of the NOx storage-reduction catalyst greatly increases over a first predetermined threshold value, calculating a difference in the NOx purification rate between before and after the rise of temperature of the NOx storage-reduction catalyst, and diagnosing the NOx storage-reduction catalyst as being deteriorated when the NOx purification rate difference is larger than a second predetermined threshold value.
