  • Publication number: 20130086890
    Abstract: An exhaust gas purification system is provided with an exhaust gas purification device which is arranged in an exhaust gas route of a common rail type engine, and is structured such that a plurality of renewing modes which burn and remove a particulate matter deposited within the exhaust gas purification device is executed. One of the plurality of renewing modes is an initialization renewing (a forced renewing) mode which supplies a fuel into the exhaust gas purification device by a post injection regardless of a clogged state of the exhaust gas purification device, in the case that an accumulated drive time of the engine becomes equal to or more than a previously set time.

  • Publication number: 20120330531
    Abstract: Provided is an engine device which improves a general-purpose property of an ECU carrying out a drive control of an engine and a regeneration control of a DPF. The engine device is provided with an exhaust gas purifying device which is arranged in an exhaust route of the engine, the ECU which controls a drive of the engine, and a variable memory means which stores a general-purpose regeneration program selectively executing a plurality of regeneration modes with respect to the exhaust gas purifying device and a flag table corresponding to an optional regeneration mode, and is rewritable. The ECU executes the general-purpose regeneration program in accordance with a regeneration mode which is selected on the basis of the flag table.

  • Publication number: 20120324871
    Abstract: In order to relief a sudden change of engine sound during the transition to recovery control of a particulate removing filter or during returning from the recovery control, a system of treating exhaust gas of an engine includes an exhaust-gas particulate removing filter in an exhaust path, closes down the opening of an inlet throttle valve or an exhaust throttle valve to a recovery opening smaller than a normal opening during recovery of the particulate removing filter, and returns the opening from the recovery opening to the normal opening after the recovery of the particulate removing filter. The opening of the inlet throttle valve or the exhaust throttle valve during the closing process from the normal opening to the recovery opening and during the returning process from the recovery opening to the normal opening is changed at a gradually decreasing or gradually increasing rate of change of the opening.

  • Publication number: 20120325093
    Abstract: An exhaust gas aftertreatment system for an engine can perform manual regeneration control for regenerating a particulate removal filter by increasing the engine rotation speed. The system can suppress the engine rotation speed increase while maintaining the exhaust gas temperature required to regenerate the particulate removal filter. The system can set the target engine rotation speed to a first set value when a regeneration instruction signal from a manual regeneration switch is received. When, although the engine rotation speed falls within a predetermined engine rotation speed range including the first set value that is the target engine rotation speed for a predetermined time period, the exhaust gas temperature does not reach the filter's regeneration temperature within the predetermined time period, the target engine rotation speed is repeatedly reset by being increased from the first set value by a predetermined rotation speed.

  • Publication number: 20120180463
    Abstract: 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.

  • Publication number: 20120016570
    Abstract: An engine governor (10) comprising a fuel supply calculation means for calculating the amount of fuel supplied to an engine (3) on the basis of the difference in speed between the target engine speed (Nset) and the actual engine speed (Nact), and a fuel supply adjustment means for adjusting the amount of fuel supplied to the engine (3) on the basis of the calculation results from the fuel supply calculation means, wherein in cases when the difference in speed between the target engine speed (Nset) and the low idle engine speed (Nlow) is equal to or less than a first predetermined speed, the difference in speed between the actual engine speed (Nact) and the target engine speed (Nset) is equal to or greater than a second predetermined speed, and the calculation results from the fuel supply calculation means are equal to or less than the minimum value of the actual engine speed (Nact), the P gain is set at a value equal to or greater than the normal value, and additionally in cases where the I component is a neg
