摘要:
An exhaust gas collecting apparatus, of an internal combustion engine including a collection vessel that can hold exhaust gas, an exhaust gas taking-out passage through which exhaust gas is introduced from an exhaust passage to the collection vessel, an exhaust gas introduction passage through which the exhaust gas is introduced from the collection vessel to the exhaust passage at a position upstream from the catalytic converter, a first valve that is switchable between a position where the introduction of the exhaust gas from the exhaust passage to the exhaust gas taking-out passage is permitted and a position where the introduction of the exhaust gas is prevented, and a second valve that is switchable between a position where the introduction of the exhaust gas through the exhaust gas introduction passage is permitted and a position where the introduction of the exhaust gas is prevented.
摘要:
Exhaust emission control apparatus and method for an internal combustion engine maintain a small amount of sulfur components contained in exhaust gas flowing out of a sulfur component retainer agent even if the amount of sulfur components retained by the agent becomes great. The exhaust emission control apparatus includes a NOx retainer agent and the sulfur component retainer agent. The apparatus performs a NOx releasing process of adjusting the air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas flowing into the sulfur component retainer agent so that the air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas flowing into the NOx retainer agent becomes substantially stoichiometric or rich of stoichiometry if NOx retained by the NOx retainer agent is to be released. The apparatus prohibits the air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas flowing into the sulfur component retainer agent from becoming substantially stoichiometric or rich of stoichiometry if the amount of the sulfur components retained by the agent is at least a first predetermined amount.
摘要:
A fuel fractionation method which can suitably control a state of a fuel at a time of fractionating the fuel in an internal combustion engine, which comprises the steps of applying an operation for promoting a fractionation of a fuel of an engine to a fractionation passage while making the fuel flow to the fractionation passage, thereby fractionating the fuel into a gas phase fuel and a liquid phase fuel within the fractionation passage, conducting the fractionated gas phase fuel and the fractionated liquid phase fuel to a branch point of the fractionation passage, and separating the gas phase fuel and the liquid phase fuel to a gas phase passage and a liquid phase passage, respectively due to gravity.
摘要:
The problem is to regenerate the purification ability of an exhaust gas purification device more reliably or efficiently in an exhaust gas purification system that combines a plurality of branch passages branch off from an exhaust gas passage and exhaust gas purification devices. When the purification ability of an exhaust gas purification device is regenerated, in the branch passage where the exhaust gas purification device is provided whose purification ability is to be regenerated, the opening angle of an exhaust gas flow volume control valve is set to the minimum opening angle that can reliably transport a reducing agent that is added from a reducing agent addition section. While the opening angle is maintained, the reducing agent is added. After the addition of the reducing agent is complete, the opening angle of an exhaust gas flow volume control valve is closed completely.

摘要:
An apparatus including an exhaust passage that forks at a separating portion and joins at a joining portion, exhaust gas purification catalysts between the separating portion and the joining portion, a filter downstream of the joining portion, reducing agent supply units supplying reducing agent to the respective exhaust passages at positions upstream of the exhaust gas purification catalysts, and control units controlling quantity of the exhaust gas passing through the exhaust gas purification catalysts. When regenerating the filter, the reducing agent is supplied by one reducing agent supply unit, and the quantity of exhaust gas passing through the exhaust gas purification catalyst provided in the exhaust passage to which the reducing agent is supplied is made smaller.

摘要:
An exhaust gas purifying apparatus for an internal combustion engine comprises a casing which forms a part of an exhaust passage of the internal combustion engine and houses therein an occlusion-reduction type NOx catalyst and a reducing agent supply device which supplies a reducing agent to an interior of the casing on an upstream side of the NOx catalyst. The reducing agent supply device injects the reducing agent in a flat form in a direction intersecting a center line of the NOx catalyst from a nozzle hole disposed in the casing.
摘要:
A fuel pump is constructed of a pump casing, a rotating member and a reinforcing member. The pump casing internally forms a pump chamber, in which the rotating member is received, such that the rotating member rotates to pressurize fuel in the pump chamber. The reinforcing member reinforces the pump casing against fluidic force applied to the pump casing. The pump casing is formed of resin. The reinforcing member is insert-formed in the pump casing, so that the reinforcing member is at least partially embedded in the pump casing.
