Abstract:
An abnormality diagnosis system for an exhaust gas purification device performs abnormality diagnosis of an SCR catalyst on the basis of the concentration of ammonia in exhaust gas in the region downstream of the SCR catalyst. The system includes a controller configured to estimate the amount of ammonia adsorbed in the SCR catalyst in an abnormal condition (ammonia adsorption amount in abnormal condition) and the amount of ammonia adsorbed in the SCR catalyst in a normal condition (ammonia adsorption amount in normal condition). When performing abnormality diagnosis of the SCR catalyst, the controller supplies reducing agent so as to make the ammonia adsorption amount in abnormal condition larger than a first predetermined adsorption amount equal to or larger than a slip start adsorption amount in abnormal condition and to make the ammonia adsorption amount in normal condition smaller than a second predetermined adsorption amount equal to or smaller than a slip start adsorption amount in normal condition.

Abstract:
When an integrated value of a determination value correlated with a command value for an amount of supply of a reducing agent at the time of the command value being larger than a command supply amount threshold value reaches an integration threshold value, a determination is made that a diagnosis condition is satisfied, and an abnormality in the supply of the reducing agent is diagnosed based on an integrated value of the command value for the amount of supply of the reducing agent and an integrated value of an estimated value of the amount of supply of the reducing agent, whereas in cases where a period of time in which the diagnosis condition is not satisfied is longer than a time period threshold value, an interval of supply of the reducing agent is extended.

Abstract:
In the abnormality diagnosis device which carries out an abnormality diagnosis of the reducing agent adding device by obtaining a diagnostic parameter which is a parameter correlated with an amount of pressure drop in a reducing agent passage in the case where, from a state in which an addition valve has been closed and in which a voltage to be applied to a pump is controlled to a diagnostic voltage so that the pressure in the reducing agent passage becomes a predetermined pressure, the addition valve is made to open in a state where the voltage to be applied to the pump is maintained at the diagnostic voltage, and by making a comparison between the diagnostic parameter and a predetermined threshold value, the abnormality diagnosis is carried out by using the diagnostic parameter or the predetermined threshold value which is corrected based on the pump discharge capacity of the pump.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses an exhaust gas purification system for an internal combustion engine, which is provided with: a low pressure EGR mechanism that is equipped with a low pressure EGR passage and a low pressure EGR valve; a selective reduction type catalyst that is arranged in a portion of the exhaust passage downstream; a supply device which serves to supply an ammonia derived compound to said selective reduction type catalyst; and a control unit that causes said supply device to supply the ammonia derived compound when said low pressure EGR valve is in a valve open state, makes the amount of the ammonia derived compound supplied from said supply device larger in cases where an amount of the low pressure EGR gas flowing through said low pressure EGR passage is large, in comparison with the case where it is small.

Abstract:
A vehicle includes an object sensor configured to detect an object around the vehicle; a warning device configured to alert a driver when an object is detected by the object sensor at a position at which a distance from the vehicle is less than or equal to a threshold; a receiver; and a controller configured to reduce the threshold when the receiver receives a signal transmitted from a vehicle washer.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure may improve the accuracy of diagnosis in diagnosing whether an exhaust gas purification system having an SCR filter is faulty. It is determined that the exhaust gas purification system is faulty if the NOx removal rate with the SCR filter calculated using a measurement value of an NOx sensor is lower than or equal to a predetermined criterion removal rate. In the apparatus, a differential pressure change rate defined as the increase in a converted differential pressure value per unit increase in the filter PM deposition amount is calculated. The value of the criterion removal rate is set higher when the differential pressure change rate at the time when the measurement value of the NOx sensor is obtained is lower than a predetermined threshold than when the differential pressure change rate is higher than or equal to the predetermined threshold.
