Patent number: 9074505Abstract: A PM accumulation amount estimation unit 50 is provided with an exhaust amount computation unit 51 for computing PM exhaust amount which is discharged in an exhaust gas passage 3, and a passive regeneration amount computation unit 52 for computing a PM regeneration amount in a DPF 7, and is configured to estimate the PM accumulation amount in the DPF 7 from the difference between the PM exhaust amount computed by the exhaust amount computation unit 51 and the PM regeneration amount computed by the passive regeneration amount computation unit 52. The PM accumulation amount estimation unit 50 is further configured such that, when an abnormality is found in an airflow meter 31, the PM regeneration amount from NO2 is computed, and the PM accumulation amount in the DPF is estimated, without using the airflow amount measured by the airflow meter 31.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2012Date of Patent: July 7, 2015Assignee: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventors: Ryo Sase, Ko Takayanagi, Keisuke Okuda

Patent number: 8857158Abstract: In an exhaust gas treatment method for an internal combustion engine, a DPF abnormal combustion causing operation is determined to have occurred when the internal combustion engine shifts from a high rotation or high load operation region ? to a low rotation, low load operation region ? within a set time T1. When it is determined that a DPF abnormal combustion causing operation has occurred, abnormal combustion of PM collected in the DPF is suppressed by fully opening an intake throttle valve (44) in order to increase an exhaust gas flow so that heat is removed by sensible heat of the exhaust gas, thereby cooling a DPF device (52), and continuing a late post-injection in order to reduce an oxygen concentration of the DPF.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2010Date of Patent: October 14, 2014Assignee: Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Tomotsugu Masuda, Ko Takayanagi, Keisuke Okuda, Kazuki Nishizawa

Patent number: 8460625Abstract: An exhaust gas purification apparatus for an engine is provided with a filter arranged in an exhaust passage of the engine, and a regeneration control unit for regenerating the filter by burning the particulate matters accumulated in the filter. The control unit may include an over-accumulation state determination unit and a switch. The over-accumulation state determination unit determines over-accumulation of the particulate filter in the filter when the particulate matter is over-accumulated in the filter. The switch switches a regeneration temperature for regenerating the filter between a first regeneration temperature at which a normal regeneration is performed and a second regeneration temperature which is lower than the first regeneration temperature. The control unit is connectable to a command unit when the particular matter is over-accumulated in the filter, so that the switch is forcibly operated toward the second regeneration temperature.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 2011Date of Patent: June 11, 2013Assignee: Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Ko Takayanagi, Keisuke Okuda

Publication number: 20120260633Abstract: In an exhaust gas treatment device in which a diesel oxidation catalyst and a DPF are provided in an exhaust pipe of an internal combustion engine, abnormal combustion in the DPF, occurring when the internal combustion engine varies from a high load condition to a low load condition, poses a problem. To solve this problem, in the present invention, a DPF abnormal combustion causing operation is determined to have occurred when the internal combustion engine shifts from a high rotation or high load operation region ? to a low rotation, low load operation region ? within a set time T1. When it is determined that a DPF abnormal combustion causing operation has occurred, abnormal combustion of PM collected in the DPF is suppressed by fully opening an intake throttle valve 44 in order to increase an exhaust gas flow so that heat is removed by sensible heat of the exhaust gas, thereby cooling a DPF device 52, and continuing a late post-injection in order to reduce an oxygen concentration of the DPF.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 11, 2010Publication date: October 18, 2012Inventors: Tomotsugu Masuda, Ko Takayanagi, Keisuke Okuda, Kazuki Nishizawa
