  • Patent number: 7104050
    Abstract: A method and system providing a vehicle condition detection means (38C) for detecting the stopped and traveling state of a vehicle, and when the vehicle condition detection means (38C) detects that the vehicle has stopped during operation of an exhaust gas temperature raising means (351C), closing an exhaust gas throttling valve (16) in addition to continuing the operation of the exhaust gas temperature raising means (351C), and subsequently, when the vehicle's traveling state is detected, opening the exhaust gas throttling valve (16) and continuing the operation of the exhaust gas temperature raising means (351C).

  • Patent number: 7043903
    Abstract: An exhaust gas purification system (1) including a continuous regeneration-type DPF (13) and a DPF control (30c) is composed to perform an exhaust gas temperature raising control by multi-injection in the case where the collecting quantity (?Pm) exceeds a first temperature rising judgment collecting quantity (?P01) lower than a predetermined collecting quantity (?P1) and, thereafter, to stop the exhaust gas temperature raising control by multi-injection in the case where the collecting quantity (?Pm) becomes lower than a predetermined second temperature rising judgment collecting quantity (?P02) lower than the predetermined first temperature rising judgment collecting quantity (?P01).

  • Patent number: 6966179
    Abstract: To provide an exhaust gas purifying system capable of forcibly regenerating DPF by efficiently raising the temperature of exhaust gas even when an exhaust gas temperature is very low at the time of low load and low engine speed such as an idling operation. In an exhaust purifying system (1) having an exhaust throttling valve (31) and a DPF (3) in an exhaust passage and having regeneration control means (P1) for regenerating the DPF (3), the regeneration control means (P1) is provided with an exhaust gas temperature detection means (P22), a fuel injection control means (P11), and an exhaust throttling control means (P12) and includes regeneration control for performing the exhaust gas temperature raising control through the multistage delay injection by the fuel injection control means (P11) and through the exhaust throttling of the exhaust throttling valve (31).

  • Publication number: 20050223697
    Abstract: The present invention provides an engine exhaust gas purification device comprising a filter B provided in an exhaust passage (10) of an engine (1) for trapping particulate matter contained in the exhaust gas, a catalyst A for regenerating the filter B by burning the particulate matter trapped in the filter B, an EGR valve (8) provided in an EGR passage (7) linking the intake side and exhaust side of the engine 1, an injector (2) for injecting fuel into a cylinder, and control unit (20) for controlling the injector (2) and EGR valve (8). During regeneration of the filter B, the control unit (20) close the EGR valve (8) when fuel injection from the injector (2) is controlled to supply unburned fuel components to the catalyst A, and open the EGR valve (8) when no fuel is injected from the injector (2) upon a request for speed reduction or the like. In so doing, residual unburned fuel components in the EGR passage (7) are scavenged by air.

  • Publication number: 20050217245
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a exhaust gas purification system (1), provided with a continuous regeneration-type DPF device (13) having a filter (13b) for collecting PM in exhaust gas (G), provided in an exhaust gas passage (12) of an internal combustion engine (10) provided with an EGR system, for supplying unburned fuel to exhaust gas (G) flowing in the continuous regeneration-type DPF device (13) during the forced regeneration control for regenerating the filter (13b) by forcibly burning PM collected by the filter (13b), characterized by stopping the recirculation of EGR gas (Ge) to the intake passage (14) side in the EGR system, when unburned fuel is supplied to exhaust gas (G) during the forced regeneration control. This prevents the blocking of EGR passage (15) and the sticking of intake valve and so on, caused by the unburned fuel supplied into exhaust gas (G), during the forced regeneration control of the continuous regeneration-type DPF device (13).
