Present embodiment is achieved through the following technical solutions declares cylinder and ignition timing:
The maximum characteristics of free-piston type internal-combustion engine are exactly that the motion of connecting rod 11 is by the decision of first firing chamber 1, second firing chamber, 8 combustion positions, a preceding combustion process directly influences motion next time, therefore, the top dead center position of first piston 14, second piston 9 is unfixing, along with load, ignition location etc. change.Different time of ignition has decisive role to the characteristics of motion, the efficient of internal-combustion engine, adjusts time of ignition according to load and can ensure that internal combustion engine operation is in optimum condition.
Budc igniting: realize reference ignition and ignition timing function respectively through the Hall transducer 12 of Shelving and the signal of linear displacement transducer 5.Processing can be by the tooth 1201 of hall signal generator 1202 resolutions, along with connecting rod 11 moves together on connecting rod 11.Hall signal generator 1202 detects tooth 1201 processes, and to square wave of electronic control unit 4 outputs, the prompting predeterminated position arrives.This square wave is used as reference ignition signal, control ignition coil elementary 206 begins charging, trigger linear displacement transducer 5 simultaneously and begin counting, (counter overflows) enters interrupt routine in ignition timing, electronic control unit 4 control ignition signals drag down, mos pipe 204 ends, and spark coil secondary 207 induces high pressure, spark plug 208 igniting.When needing to adjust ignition location, only need to revise the counter initial value of linear displacement transducer 5, guarantee that the precision of igniting is 0.01~0.1mm.
The atdc igniting: because the top dead center position of first piston 14, second piston 9 is variable, preceding method obviously can not accurately be judged the ignition location of atdc.Corresponding this kind situation should utilize the piston top dead center signal as declaring cylinder signal.The real seizure A of linear displacement transducer 5, the moment of B signal rising edge made the judgement of connecting rod 11 moving direction during electronic control unit 4; Changing at A, B signal phase difference, this moment of mark is the circulation top dead center position in (moving direction change), cylinder signal is declared in generation, triggers linear displacement transducer 5 countings, and is same according to different initial values, finish the igniting of atdc particular location, precision is 0.010~0.1mm.
Situation for the budc igniting, tooth 1201 is being understood triggering hall signal generator 1,202 twice near top dead center with away from the movement process of top dead center, make Hall transducer 12 export two square waves, if the pulse signal of Hall transducer 12 does not add filtration treatment directly as reference ignition signal, each circulation will produce the fire signal of a mistake, and the pulse that therefore must be with tooth 1201 triggers during away from top dead center is shielded.
Present embodiment is achieved through the following technical solutions the control of ignition energy:
According to the spark coil technical parameter, elementary 206 charging currents of spark coil change with being index law current"on"time, primary current decision ignition energy.Spark coil elementary 206 adopts 211 power supplies of 12V DC electrical source, keeping the 3ms duration of charge just can produce ignition voltage more than the 10kV in secondary 207, ignition energy reaches more than the 50mJ, the igniting needs when satisfying normal working of engine, and therefore being set this duration of charge is basic pulsewidth.Be not subjected to the influence of 12V DC electrical source 211 voltage change in order to ensure ignition energy and secondary 207 voltages, when DC electrical source 211 voltage step-downs, should suitably increase the duration of charge.
Present embodiment is achieved through the following technical solutions the safety protection effect:
Because the firing chamber of plug ignition formula internal-combustion engine mostly is the hemispherical combustion chamber, clearance volume is big, and maximum compression ratio is limited.First piston 14 does not have fixing top dead center, incorrect and piston inertia was crossed and may well be run into first firing chamber, 1 limit position (cylinder cap) and cause danger default firing time, same, second piston 9 might be run into second firing chamber, 8 limit positions (cylinder cap) and cause danger.To this abnormal conditions, except improving the internal combustion (IC) Engine Design parameter, also need to add the auxiliary protection measure.The positive ignition module is set in ignition system, and the introducing critical velocity also is stored in electronic control unit 4 internal memories.Here, the size of critical velocity is relevant with the load of internal-combustion engine, supposes under this speed, and first piston 14, second piston 9 can freely be compressed to the limit position of first firing chamber 1 or second firing chamber 8 just.With 3mm part before the limit position as sampled point, sampling first piston 14, second piston, 9 speed, compare with the critical velocity of storage, if sample rate surpasses critical velocity, the corresponding mos pipe 204 of electronic control unit semi-finals system ends immediately, corresponding spark plug 208 igniting are done negative work to piston, offset unnecessary kinetic energy.

By simulation result as seen, the control pulsewidth continues 3ms just can make primary air energy storage 50mJ, identical with the technical parameter of spark coil.When engine start, idling and acceleration or lean combustion, mixed gas is difficult to light, and needs higher ignition energy, in the case, also should adjust the charging pulsewidth to more than the 5ms, makes ignition energy reach 100mJ.And pulsewidth is when reaching 6ms, and electric current has reached the safe current upper limit of setting, and the current-limiting protection module has played the effect of expection, and the restriction charging current is stabilized in 7.56A.
Table 1 has been summed up the elementary cut-out electric current of difference charging pulsewidth down-firing coil, secondary voltage and the ignition energy Changing Pattern of this design proposal.As can be seen, the pulsewidth that surpasses 6ms has not had practical significance, to ignition system without any influence.
