Patent number: 8915067Abstract: Provided is a diesel engine which can efficiently regenerate a diesel particulate filter. The control for regeneration using an ECU includes a first regeneration by burning particulate matter at slightly more than 300° C. for 20 minutes when the accumulation of particulate matter exceeds a first threshold; a second regeneration by burning particulate matter at approximately 560° C. for 30 minutes by an additional injection to remove particulate matter other than ash when the accumulation of particulate matter exceeds the first threshold for a first predetermined period of time, or every 100 hours; and a third regeneration by burning particulate matter at approximately 600° C. for 15 minutes by an additional injection to remove particulate matter other than ash when the accumulation of particulate matter exceeds a second threshold and an emergency regeneration switch is pushed, or after 50 hours since the second or third regeneration and the emergency regeneration switch is pushed.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2010Date of Patent: December 23, 2014Assignee: Yanmar Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroshi Oohashi, Tomohiro Fukuda, Taichi Togashi

Patent number: 8656707Abstract: A diesel engine is configured to be optionally set either to a low fuel consumption mode in which the amount of fuel consumption is reduced or to a low noise mode in which the noise is reduced so that a continuous regeneration mode is automatically selected when the output value of the diesel engine is greater than a predetermined value (Ptr), the estimated amount of accumulation of particulate matter collected in a DPF is greater than or equal to a predetermined value (Vtr), a forced regeneration mode is automatically selected when the output value of the diesel engine is less than the predetermined value (Ptr) and the estimated amount of accumulation of particulate matter collected in the DPF is greater than the predetermined value (Vtr) when either the continuous regeneration mode or forced regeneration mode is manually selected, control is started depending on the selected mode.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2010Date of Patent: February 25, 2014Assignee: Yanmar Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroshi Oohashi, Hiroshi Masuda

Patent number: 8146573Abstract: It is intended to provide an EGR device for an engine in which a cooling structure such as an EGR cooler is not required and which reduces Nox contained in the exhaust gas in the whole operation areas, so as to correspond to recent exhaust gas regulation. An EGR device 30 for an engine comprises an EGR pipe 14 for continuously connecting an exhaust manifold 4 and an intake manifold 3 of an engine 1, an EGR valve 9 for controlling a passage area of the EGR pipe 14, an ECU 6 for controlling the EGR valve 9. The EGR device 30 further comprises a bypass passage 24 for bypassing the EGR valve 9 and a restrictor 25 is installed in the bypass passage 24.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2007Date of Patent: April 3, 2012Assignee: Yanmar Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroshi Oohashi, Hiroshi Masuda
