摘要:
In a common rail system comprised of a first accumulator storing high-pressure fuel and a second accumulator storing low-pressure fuel, additional fuel is injected when a fuel pressure in a fuel passage or in the second accumulator (low inlet pressure of an injector) is reduced to a low pressure approximate to the pressure of the low-pressure fuel stored in the second accumulator after a switching valve is operated for disconnection from the fuel passage (switching valve drive signal OFF) at a point in time when a main injection control device finishes the injection of fuel (injector drive signal OFF) or after the main injection control device finishes the injection of fuel. This keeps the fuel pressure as low as possible during post injection to prevent the fuel from adhering to the wall surfaces of cylinder liners.

By setting a switching timing of switching means that connects either one of a high pressure fuel source and a low pressure fuel source to an injector earlier than a point of time when an injector finishes a high pressure fuel injection, leak fuel or return fuel is reduced and an engine load is reduced and therefore mileage is improved.

A common-rail injection system includes a first accumulator of high pressure and a second accumulator of low pressure. The common-rail injection system includes a post injection control device for injecting additional low-pressure fuel from the second accumulator through a fuel injection nozzle after main fuel is injected. The post injection control device injects the additional fuel the injection terminates at a first timing when the fuel pressure in either fuel passage or second accumulator lowers to a predetermined value lower than that of the high-pressure fuel or at a second timing when an exhaust stroke of the engine is completed, whichever earlier.

After an engine has been started, a controller 8 of a fuel injection system opens an injection rate switching change-over valve 5 for a period of time not less than a fuel injection period until the time a fuel pressure in a low pressure accumulator 4 connected to the portion of a fuel passage 10a which is on the downstream side of the change-over valve 5 has reached a set level, whereby a fuel injection starting delay ascribed to a fuel pressure decrease in the second accumulator can be prevented. After the engine has been started, the controller 8 of the fuel injection system sets the change-over valve opening starting time in each fuel injection cycle to the time earlier than the injector opening starting time, or the opening starting time of both an injector and change-over valve to the time earlier than those in a regular mode until the time the fuel pressure in the low-pressure accumulator 4 connected to the portion of the fuel passage 10a which is on the downstream side of the injection rate switching change-over valve 5 has reached the set level, whereby the fuel injection starting delay can be prevented. Therefore, the engine starting characteristics are improved, and the discharging of white smoke from the engine is prevented.
摘要:
During a transitional operation of an engine in which an engine load is changed suddenly from a high load to a low load, a control operation for extending an opening period of a change-over valve which is adapted to switch a low-pressure accumulator and a high-pressure accumulator from one to the other during a fuel injection operation is carried out to increase a flow rate of a fuel supplied to the low-pressure accumulator and thereby reduce the pressure in the high-pressure accumulator, whereby a response delay of the fuel pressure in the high-pressure accumulator is minimized. During a transitional operation of the engine in which the engine is in an accelerated operation, the change-over valve is kept open until the fuel pressure in the low-pressure accumulator, which is connected to the portion of a fuel passage which is on the downstream side of the change-over valve adapted to switch the low-pressure accumulator and high-pressure accumulator from one to the other during a fuel injection operation, reaches an indicated level, and until a predetermined period of time elapses after the fuel injection finishing time, whereby the formation of a fuel pressure in the low-pressure accumulator is promoted to obtain injection condition suiting the operating condition of the engine.

A booster unit is provided in an injector of a fuel injection system. The booster unit includes a booster piston accommodated in a pressure chamber, and a discharge valve capable of discharging fuel in a backpressure chamber. A controller includes an indication-value setting step which sets an indication value of a target pressure in a common rail in correspondence to an engine operation state, a determination step which determines whether or not the indication value of the pressure in the common rail is in a direction of reduction to be lower in comparison to a previously set indication value, and a booster piston pseudo-operation step which opens the discharge valve at timing other than injection operation of the injector when the determination step has determined that the indication value is in the direction of reduction.

A booster unit is provided in an injector of a fuel injection system. The booster unit includes a booster piston accommodated in a pressure chamber, and a discharge valve capable of discharging fuel in a backpressure chamber. A needle valve drive unit includes a pressure-receiving piston and an open/close valve. A return passage is connected to a discharge side of the open/close valve. A fuel discharge passage in communication with the discharge valve is combined with the return passage in a confluence portion. A check valve is provided between the confluence portion and the open/close valve. A check valve permits the fuel discharged to the return passage from a pressurization chamber to be directed to the confluence portion, and prevents the fuel discharged to the fuel discharge passage from the backpressure chamber from being directed the open/close valve.

In a common rail internal combustion engine having a pressure increase mechanism, when the pressure increase mechanism is activated, fuel is injected according to a target injection quantity determined by adding an increase in injection quantity calculated depending on a load on a supply pump to a demanded injection quantity.

There is provided an apparatus that estimates the NOx adsorption amount, comprising a NOx trap catalyst that is disposed in an exhaust passage of an engine, for adsorbing NOx in exhaust gases during lean operation and releasing and reducing the adsorbed NOx during rich operation, an operation unit that computes an amount of emission from the catalyst during rich operation by using a map or a polynomial equation that reflects emissions from the catalyst based on the exhaust gas temperature and the exhaust gas flow rate of the exhaust passage and the excess-air factor upstream of the catalyst, and an estimating unit that estimates an amount of adsorption in the NOx trap catalyst from the computed emission amount.
