Patent number: 10677152Abstract: A hydraulic servo device includes: a servo piston configured to move in an axial direction with respect to a device main body; and a stroke sensor configured to detect an amount of movement of the servo piston with respect to the device main body. The hydraulic servo device is configured to change a supply flow rate of exhaust gas to a turbine of a turbocharger by moving the servo piston according to applied hydraulic pressure. A cooling water channel through which cooling water is to be supplied is provided at a part between the turbocharger and the stroke sensor.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2016Date of Patent: June 9, 2020Assignee: KOMATSU LTD.Inventors: Tetsuo Orita, Yuuki Muranaka, Shigemori Suzuki

Patent number: 8932530Abstract: A reducing agent aqueous solution mixing device includes an exhaust pipe, an injector, an inner pipe and a tubular guide member. The exhaust pipe includes an elbow part having a curved portion, and a linear part disposed downstream of the elbow part. The injector is disposed outside of the curved portion, and injects a reducing agent aqueous solution into the elbow part towards the linear part. The inner pipe is disposed downstream of the injector within the exhaust pipe. The inner pipe has an inlet portion opening facing the injector and an outer peripheral surface spaced apart from the inner wall of the linear part. The inner pipe allows the exhaust gas to flow through the inside of the inner pipe and along the outer periphery of the inner pipe. The tubular guide member directs the reducing agent aqueous solution injected from the injector to the inner pipe.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2012Date of Patent: January 13, 2015Assignee: Komatsu Ltd.Inventors: Tadashi Iijima, Hirofumi Kizawa, Boku Itou, Shinji Tsujimura, Takashi Katou, Tetsuo Orita, Kanji Namimatsu, Issei Hara, Hiroyuki Tomioka

Patent number: 8151770Abstract: An engine fuel supply system is provided at a reduced cost by using a HC dosing pump that supplies fuel into an exhaust pipe also as a pump for a cylinder fuel supply device. When a signal is generated to command air removal from a cylinder fuel supply passage, the dual-purpose pump is activated, a first on-off valve assumes an open state, and a second on-off valve assumes a close state, so that the fuel is supplied from the dual-purpose pump to the cylinder fuel supply passage via an air-removal fuel supply passage. When a signal is generated to command fuel supply into the exhaust pipe, the dual-purpose pump is activated, the second on-off valve assumes the open state, and the first on-off valve assumes the close state, so that the fuel is supplied from the dual-purpose pump to the exhaust pipe via the exhaust-pipe fuel supply passage.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2008Date of Patent: April 10, 2012Assignee: Komatsu Ltd.Inventors: Yasukuni Kawashima, Tetsuo Orita
