Abstract

"GERENCIAMENTO DE TANQUE DE COMBUSTìVEL DE VEìCULO". Um sistema de gerenciamento de motor de veículo inclui uma unidade de controle de motor única (4) com um controle/processador (22) e dispositivos de armazenagem (2325). o veículo pode ser acionado por combustível gás o tanque (27) por meio de injetores de gás (6) ou por tanque de gasolina (8) por meio de injetores de gasolina (2) O controle (22) determina se gás ou gasolina é utilizado dependente de condições de condução usando levantamento (23, 24). Para reabastecer o veiculo um ciclo de operações é realizado pelo controle (22) usando as seq³ências armazenadas no dispositivo (25). A presença de um suprimento de gás conectado é determinada por meio do detetor (13a) e pressão de tanque de gás por meio de sensor (27a) e um compressor (28) é operável durante o ciclo para reabastecer o tanque. O reabastecimento termina automaticamente e depois este carro pode ser acionado quando o desacoplamento de linha de combustivel é detectado."VEHICLE FUEL TANK MANAGEMENT". A vehicle engine management system includes a single engine control unit (4) with a control / processor (22) and storage devices (2325). the vehicle can be driven by gas fuel the tank (27) by means of gas injectors (6) or by gasoline tank (8) by means of gasoline injectors (2) The control (22) determines whether gas or gas is used depending on driving conditions using survey (23, 24). To refuel the vehicle, a cycle of operations is performed by the control (22) using the sequences stored in the device (25). The presence of a connected gas supply is determined by means of the detector (13a) and gas tank pressure by means of a sensor (27a) and a compressor (28) is operable during the cycle to refill the tank. Refueling ends automatically and then this car can be started when the fuel line decoupling is detected.
