For a traditional fixed displacement oil pump, when the rotating speed of an engine is increased, the oil pumping capacity of the oil pump is excessive, so that the oil pressure of a lubricating system is increased, and at the moment, the oil pressure of the lubricating system is greater than the requirement of the engine. The oil pump pressure relief valve can be adopted in the traditional scheme, and when the oil pressure of the main oil gallery exceeds the opening pressure of the pressure relief valve, the pressure relief valve is opened to release part of the oil, so that the oil pressure of the lubricating system is prevented from continuously rising. Particularly, when the environmental temperature is low, the viscosity of the engine oil is high, the flow of the engine oil of the lubricating system is more excessive, if no engine oil pump pressure relief valve is designed or the engine lubricating system pressure relief valve fails, the oil pressure of the engine lubricating system is very high, the pressure resistance of the lubricating system is exceeded, and oil leakage of sealing parts of the lubricating system such as an oil filter is caused. In the prior art, an oil pressure switch or an oil pressure sensor is arranged on a main oil duct of an engine to remind a client of whether the oil pressure of the main oil duct is low or high, and a light is turned on to remind the client of a fault of a lubricating system, at the moment, the engine can only be stopped, otherwise, the engine is leaked or damaged.
In view of this, embodiments of the present application provide a fault handling method and system for a lubrication system of an engine, which can compare a main oil gallery oil pressure of the lubrication system of the engine with a maximum threshold value of the lubrication system, and reduce the main oil gallery oil pressure by adjusting and controlling VVT (Variable Valve Timing) and PCJ (Piston Cooling Jets) so that an automobile is driven to a nearby repair shop for inspection and maintenance in a fault mode.
The fault handling method and fault handling system provided in the following detailed description may be any vehicle type engine, which may be used in a passenger car, for example, and in a truck, for example.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present application provides a fault handling method for a lubrication system of an engine, where a flow of the fault handling method includes:
s1, obtaining the pressure of a main oil gallery of the engine.
Specifically, a pressure sensor is mounted on a main oil gallery of the engine, and when the engine is running, the pressure sensor is used for detecting oil pressure on the main oil gallery when the engine is working.
And S2, if the pressure of the main oil gallery is greater than the highest threshold value of the lubricating system, a first type of oil pressure alarm is sent out, and the variable valve is controlled to be opened and closed in a timing mode.
Specifically, the main oil gallery pressure is compared with the highest threshold value of the lubricating system, if the main oil gallery pressure is larger than the highest threshold value of the lubricating system, a first type of oil pressure alarm is sent out, and the VVT is controlled to be opened and closed. It should be noted that VVT is used hereinafter to represent variable valve timing for the sake of simplicity of description, as will be better understood.
It should be noted that the highest threshold of the lubricating system is the maximum oil pressure allowed by the engine lubricating system, the highest threshold of the lubricating system can set the engine on an experimental machine and set a pressure relief valve of the lubricating system in a normally closed state, the test is stopped by gradually increasing the pressure of the lubricating system until oil leakage occurs in sealing parts of the lubricating system, such as an oil filter of the engine, and the oil pressure at this time is determined as the highest threshold of the lubricating system.
Specifically, the main oil gallery pressure is compared with the highest threshold value of the lubricating system, the ECU judges that the main oil gallery pressure is larger than the highest threshold value of the lubricating system, the ECU sends out first-class alarm oil pressure to remind passengers that the oil pressure of the engine lubricating system is too high, and the VVT is controlled to be opened and closed.
And S3, judging the fluctuation change of the pressure of the main oil gallery between the opening and the closing of the variable valve timing.
Specifically, the ECU controls the VVT to be opened, observes the fluctuation condition of the pressure of the main oil gallery of the engine, and closes the VVT after the fluctuation condition of the pressure of the main oil gallery of the engine is collected.
And S4, if the pressure fluctuation of the main oil gallery is in a preset range, controlling the engine to operate in a fault operation state.
Specifically, when the fluctuation range of the main oil duct pressure is in a preset range, the ECU controls the engine to enter a fault operation state, and meanwhile, the PCJ is forcibly opened, so that the main oil duct pressure of the engine is reduced, and oil leakage of sealing elements of lubricating systems such as a filter and the like is avoided.
In the fault processing method, the variable valve timing is controlled to be opened and closed, and the fluctuation condition of the main oil gallery pressure is judged, so that the fault is diagnosed. When the pressure fluctuation of the main oil gallery is within a preset range, the piston cooling nozzle is opened, and the engine runs in a fault running state, so that the driving experience of a user is improved.
In the running process of the engine, when the condition that the pressure of a main oil gallery of the engine is greater than the highest threshold value of a lubricating system is detected, the ECU displays first-class oil pressure alarm information on an automobile display screen to remind a client of high-pressure failure, and simultaneously controls the variable valve to be opened in a timing manner and obtains the oil pressure of the main oil gallery, if the oil pressure of the main oil gallery is reduced and the reduction range is in a preset range at the moment, the variable valve timing oil way is indicated to be free of blockage, the ECU controls the piston cooling nozzle to be opened for reducing the oil pressure of the main oil gallery, a passenger can drive the engine to a nearby repair shop to maintain the engine in a failure running state, and when the pressure of the main oil gallery is greater than the highest threshold value of the lubricating system, the automobile engine stops working to cause traffic accidents.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, S3, determining the fluctuation range of the main gallery pressure between the opening and closing of the VVT, further includes:
and S5, if the fluctuation of the pressure of the main oil gallery is not in a preset range, indicating that the engine stops running.
Specifically, when the fluctuation of the main oil gallery pressure is smaller than the preset range, the VVT is located on the tail end oil path of the engine, the tail end oil path of the engine is judged to be blocked, the engine cannot continue to operate at the moment, the ECU informs a customer of immediately stopping the engine, the engine is prohibited from being started again, and the customer can transport the automobile to a maintenance shop for maintenance by calling a trailer. If the oil circuit at the tail end of the engine is blocked, the engine continues to run, and great damage is caused to the engine.
The engine lubricating system comprises an engine oil path system and oil consumption components, wherein the oil consumption components comprise a main shaft bushing, a PCJ, a chain tensioner, a VVT, a camshaft, a high-pressure oil pump and the like, and the VVT is positioned on an oil path at the tail end of an engine.
In one embodiment, when the engine is in a failure operation state, the rotation speed of the engine is less than or equal to 1000rpm, and the vehicle speed is less than or equal to 30km/h. Specifically, when the pressure of a main oil duct of the engine is greater than the maximum threshold value of a lubricating system, the VVT is controlled to be opened, if the fluctuation of the pressure of the main oil duct is in a preset threshold value, the ECU controls the engine to enter a fault running state, so that the rotating speed of the engine is less than or equal to 1000rpm, the vehicle speed is less than or equal to 30km/h, and after the PCJ is controlled to be forcibly opened, the flow demand of the engine is suddenly increased by about 30%, the pressure of the main oil duct can be suddenly reduced by 200-500 kPa, the oil pressure can be reduced to the pressure-resistant range of the lubricating system when the engine runs at low speed, and the oil leakage of sealing elements of the lubricating systems such as a mechanical filter and the like can be ensured. And along with the low-speed running of the engine, the temperature of the engine oil gradually rises, the viscosity of the engine oil drops, the flow resistance of the engine oil of the lubricating system is reduced at the moment, and the pressure of the engine oil also drops. In particular, a temperature sensor can be arranged on the main oil gallery for detecting the oil temperature of the main oil gallery at different times, when the read oil temperature is less than a preset value, for example, the preset value is set to be 75 degrees, the rotating speed of the engine is set to be less than or equal to 1000rpm, the vehicle speed is set to be less than or equal to 30km/h, when the read oil temperature is greater than the preset value, the rotating speed of the engine can be increased to 1100rpm, and the vehicle speed can be increased to 40km/h, so that the engine can reach a nearby maintenance shop more quickly in a fault running state.
In one embodiment, the predetermined range is 20 to 50kPa. Specifically, the fluctuation range of the main gallery pressure may be measured on a test bench. The method comprises the steps that under different main oil duct pressures, the VVT is forcibly started, the flow of 2-3L of engine oil is suddenly increased, at the moment, the oil pressure of the main oil duct is reduced, the oil pressure of the main oil duct is tested for multiple times to obtain a plurality of oil pressure reduction amplitude values, the minimum value and the maximum value of the oil pressure reduction amplitude values are selected, and the oil pressure range between the minimum value and the maximum value is determined as the fluctuation range. For example, when the engine is started on a test bench, the main oil gallery pressure value is 1000KPa, and after the VVT is forcibly started, the main oil gallery pressure value is reduced to 950KPa, and the oil pressure drop amplitude value is 50KPa. For example, when the engine is started on a test bench, the main oil gallery pressure value is 950KPa, and after the VVT is forcibly started, the main oil gallery pressure value is reduced to 930KPa, and the oil pressure drop amplitude value is 20KPa. And acquiring the maximum value and the minimum value in the oil pressure drop amplitude values under different main oil gallery pressures to obtain a preset range.
In an embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the fault handling method further includes the following steps:
s6, if the pressure of the main oil gallery is between the highest threshold of the lubricating system and the pressure relief threshold of the oil pump, the engine continues to run in the original state, and the variable valve is controlled to be opened and closed in a timing mode, wherein the pressure relief threshold is an oil pressure threshold of the oil pump pressure relief valve;
s7, judging the fluctuation change of the pressure of the main oil gallery between the opening and the closing of the variable valve timing;
and S8, if the pressure fluctuation of the main oil gallery is within the preset range, sending a fault indication of the oil pump pressure relief valve.
Specifically, if the acquired pressure of the main oil gallery is between the highest threshold of the lubricating system and the pressure relief threshold of the oil pump, the engine continues to operate in the original state, and the VVT is controlled to be opened and closed, wherein the pressure relief threshold is an oil pressure threshold of the oil pump pressure relief valve. For example, if the pressure of the main oil gallery is read to be greater than the pressure relief threshold of the oil pump and less than the highest threshold of the lubricating system in the running process of the vehicle, the oil pressure of the lubricating system cannot trigger an alarm, and the engine cannot be damaged or leak oil when continuously running. And the ECU controls the VVT to be opened, acquires the fluctuation value of the pressure of the main oil duct again, if the fluctuation value of the pressure of the main oil duct is in a preset range, and indicates that the tail end oil way of the lubricating system where the VVT is located is not blocked, the tail end oil way is caused by the fact that a pressure release valve of the oil pump cannot be opened, meanwhile, the ECU informs a client of abnormal oil pressure through an instrument panel, and the engine can continuously run to a nearby maintenance shop to be checked and maintained.
In an embodiment, the fault handling method further includes: and if the pressure of the main oil gallery is between the pressure relief threshold value and the lowest threshold value of the lubricating system, the engine continues to run in the original state.
Specifically, in the running process of the automobile, the fact that the pressure of the main oil gallery is smaller than the pressure release valve and larger than the lowest threshold value of the lubricating system is read, the engine oil pressure is in a normal range, the pressure release valve is in a closed state, and the engine continues to run according to normal working conditions. It should be noted that the minimum threshold of the lubrication system is the minimum oil pressure requirement for ensuring the normal operation lubrication function of the engine when the engine runs at idle speed.
In an embodiment, the fault handling method further includes: and if the pressure of the main oil gallery is less than or equal to the lowest threshold value of the lubricating system, giving out a second type of oil pressure alarm, indicating that the engine stops running, and forbidding the engine to start. Specifically, in the running process of the automobile, the fact that the pressure of the main oil gallery is smaller than or equal to the lowest threshold value of the lubricating system is read, the oil pressure of the lubricating system cannot maintain the lubricating requirement of the engine during running, the engine can be seriously damaged when the engine is continuously run, and the ECU sends out a second type of oil pressure alarm through an instrument panel to inform a customer of immediately stopping the automobile and forbid the engine from being started again. Wherein, the second type oil pressure alarm is an engine oil low pressure alarm.
In one embodiment, the lowest threshold value of the lubrication system, the pressure relief threshold value of the oil pump and the highest threshold value of the lubrication system are sequentially increased. Specifically, the minimum threshold of the lubricating system is the minimum oil pressure requirement for guaranteeing the normal operation of the engine and the lubricating function when the engine runs at idle speed, and when the oil pressure of the lubricating system is lower than the minimum threshold of the lubricating system, the engine runs to cause mechanical damage to oil consumption parts, and cylinder scuffing and tile holding can be caused seriously. The pressure relief threshold value of the oil pump can be obtained from the production specification sheet of the oil pump, and when the oil pressure of the lubricating system is larger than the pressure relief threshold value of the oil pump, the pressure relief valve is opened to reduce the oil pressure of the lubricating system. The highest threshold value of the lubricating system is the highest pressure-resistant value of the lubricating system, and when the oil pressure of the lubricating system exceeds the highest threshold value of the lubricating system, the risk of oil leakage of sealing elements of the lubricating system such as a mechanical filter and a sealing ring can occur. The minimum threshold value of the lubricating system is smaller than the pressure relief threshold value of the oil pump, and the pressure relief threshold value of the oil pump is smaller than the maximum threshold value of the lubricating system. For example, the minimum threshold of the lubricating system is 50kPa, the pressure relief threshold of the oil pump is 700kPa, and the maximum threshold of the lubricating system is 1200kPa.
As shown in fig. 4, an embodiment of the present application further provides a fault handling system 100 for a lubrication system of an engine, where the fault handling system 100 is configured to perform the above-mentioned fault handling method for the lubrication system of the engine, and the fault handling system 100 includes an oil pressure obtaining module 110, a switching module 120, and a control module 130, where the oil pressure obtaining module 110 is configured to obtain main oil gallery pressures of the lubrication system at different times. The switch module 120 is used to control variable valve timing opening and closing and opening of the piston cooling jets. The control module 130 is configured to perform a judgment according to the main oil gallery pressure, the highest threshold and the lowest threshold of the lubrication system, and the pressure relief threshold of the oil pump, so as to control the switch module 120.
Specifically, the oil pressure acquiring module 110 acquires the main oil gallery pressure of the lubricating system at different times through a pressure sensor installed on the main oil gallery. The control module 130 performs size judgment on the acquired main oil gallery pressure, the highest threshold and the lowest threshold of the lubricating system and a pressure release valve of the oil pump. For example, when the control module 130 determines that the main gallery pressure is greater than the maximum threshold value of the lubrication system, the control module 130 controls the switch module 120 to turn the VVT on, the oil pressure acquisition module 110 acquires the main gallery pressure again, the switch module 120 turns the VVT off, and if the main gallery pressure drop is within a predetermined range, the switch module 120 forces the PCJ on.
In one embodiment, the fault handling system 100 further includes an alarm module for issuing a first type oil pressure alarm or a second type oil pressure alarm. Specifically, when the control module judges that the pressure of the main oil gallery is larger than the highest threshold value of the lubricating system, the alarm module sends out a first type of oil pressure alarm to prompt that the oil pressure of the lubricating system is too high. When the module judges that the pressure of the main oil gallery is smaller than the minimum threshold value of the lubricating system, the alarm module sends out a second type of oil pressure alarm to prompt that the oil pressure of the lubricating system is too low, and informs a customer of stopping immediately. When the control module judges that the main oil gallery pressure is greater than the pressure relief threshold value of the oil pump and smaller than the highest threshold value of the lubricating system, the control module 130 opens the VVT through the switch module 120, the oil pressure acquisition module 110 acquires the fluctuation value of the main oil gallery pressure again, if the fluctuation value of the main oil gallery pressure is in the preset range, the alarm module sends out a fault indication of the oil pump pressure relief valve, and meanwhile, the switch module 120 forcibly opens the PCJ to prompt a customer that the customer can continue to run, but the customer needs to drive the vehicle to a nearby maintenance shop to check and maintain as soon as possible.
In order to better understand the fault handling method for the lubrication system of the engine according to the embodiment of the present application, a fault handling method process is described below with reference to fig. 5.
The engine lubricating system comprises an engine oil way system and oil components such as a main shaft bush, a connecting rod bush, a PCJ, a chain tensioner, a VVT, a camshaft, a high-pressure oil pump, a vacuum pump and the like. Based on the lubrication system calculations, the PCJ (piston cooling nozzle) flow is approximately 30% of the total lubrication system flow. For a PCJ controlled by a solenoid valve, the on-off control of the solenoid valve is adopted to control whether to open the PCJ oil injection cooling piston, and when the PCJ is suddenly opened, the oil pressure of a main oil passage is suddenly reduced due to the sudden and large increase of the flow demand of an engine lubricating system. And the oil pressure drop amplitude is related to the engine oil temperature, and the lower the oil temperature, the greater the oil pressure drop.
When the VVT of the engine is switched on and off, the volume of an actuating mechanism of the VVT needs to be filled with engine oil, so that the flow demand of a lubricating system of the engine is increased in a short time, the oil pressure of a main oil passage of the engine is suddenly reduced by about 20-50 kPa, and the oil pressure of the lubricating system is recovered to be stable after the switching of the opening and the closing of the VVT is finished.
An engine oil pressure sensor is arranged in a main oil gallery of an engine lubricating system, and when the oil pressure sensor detects a fault of high engine oil pressure, the fault may be caused by that an engine oil pump pressure relief valve fails to open or an oil way at the rear end of the main oil gallery is blocked. When the oil pressure sensor detects a fault that the engine oil pressure is low, the fault may be caused by the fact that the engine oil pressure relief valve is stuck in an open state and cannot be closed or the oil passage leaks. Different failure modes need to adopt different strategies, and the vehicle is ensured not to be anchored on the premise of ensuring the safe operation of the engine.
For example, the engine main gallery pressure sensor reads that the oil pressure is P, the oil pump relief valve opening oil pressure is set to P1, the lubrication system oil pressure lower limit alarm value is P2, and the lubrication system oil pressure upper limit alarm value is P3. In particular, P1 is set to 700kPa, P2 is set to 50kPa, P3 is set to 1200kPa, wherein P2 is the lowest pressure requirement for ensuring the normal lubricating function of the engine when the engine runs at idle speed, P3 is the highest pressure resistance of the lubricating system, and oil leakage of the sealing parts of the lubricating system such as a filter can occur when P3 is exceeded. There are 4 oil pressure states for a conventional fixed displacement oil pump as follows:
1. when P is more than or equal to P3, high-voltage fault alarm can be triggered, and the high-voltage fault alarm can be generated only under the following two conditions: 1) When the engine oil temperature is low and the engine oil pressure release valve cannot be opened, the engine oil viscosity is high due to low engine oil temperature, the engine oil flow resistance is large, the oil pressure of a main oil duct of the engine is high, and at the moment, redundant engine oil needs to be discharged through the engine oil pressure release valve; 2) When the tail end oil path of the engine is blocked and the oil pump pressure release valve fails to open, the oil flow resistance is large due to the blockage of the tail end oil path, the oil pressure of the main oil path is high when the engine runs, redundant engine oil needs to be discharged through the oil pump pressure release valve, and if the oil pump pressure release valve cannot be opened, the oil pressure can continuously rise to cause high-pressure alarm. If high-pressure alarm is met, controlling the VVT to be opened and closed, observing the oil pressure fluctuation condition of a main oil passage of the engine, if the oil pressure of the main oil passage of the engine is reduced by about 20-50 kPa, indicating that the VVT oil passage is not blocked, and because the VVT belongs to an end oil passage of the engine, indicating that the end oil passage of the engine is not blocked, judging that an oil pump pressure release valve cannot be opened at the moment, controlling the engine to operate in a first working condition (fault operation mode) under the condition, reminding a client of high-pressure fault, and driving to a repair shop to inspect and repair through the fault mode; if the oil pressure of the main oil duct of the engine is not fluctuated when the VVT is opened and closed, the oil way at the tail end of the engine is judged to be blocked, the engine cannot continue to run at the moment, a client is informed to stop immediately, the engine is forbidden to be started again, and the safety of the engine is ensured.
The working condition I is as follows: the engine is controlled to rotate at a speed of less than or equal to 1000rpm and at a speed of less than or equal to 30km/h, the PCJ is forced to be opened in the whole process, when P is greater than or equal to P3 and an oil circuit at the tail end of the engine is not blocked, the engine continues to operate at a low speed, although the engine cannot be damaged, oil leakage of lubricating system sealing elements such as a mechanical filter can be caused due to high oil pressure, at the moment, the engine is controlled to operate under a working condition I, the PCJ is forced to be opened, the flow demand of the engine is suddenly increased by about 30%, the oil pressure of a main oil duct can be reduced by 200-500 kPa, the oil pressure can be reduced within the pressure-resistant range of the lubricating system when the engine operates at the low speed, and oil leakage of the lubricating system sealing elements such as the mechanical filter can be ensured. And along with the temperature rise of the engine oil, the viscosity of the engine oil is reduced, the flow resistance of the engine oil of the lubricating system is reduced at the moment, and the pressure of the engine oil is also continuously reduced.
2. When P1 is less than or equal to P and less than P3, the engine oil pressure cannot give an alarm, and the engine cannot be damaged or leak oil during operation. At the moment, the engine can continuously run according to normal working conditions generally caused by the fact that the oil pump pressure relief valve cannot be opened, but the engine is informed to a client through an instrument that the oil pressure is abnormal, and the engine needs to be checked and maintained by a nearby maintenance shop.
3. When P2 is more than P and less than P1, the engine oil pressure is in a normal range, and the engine operates according to a normal working condition.
4. When P is less than or equal to P2, the engine oil pressure low pressure gives an alarm, the pressure of a lubricating system cannot maintain the lubricating requirement when the engine runs, the engine can be seriously damaged when the engine continues to run, a client is informed to stop immediately at the moment, the engine is forbidden to be started again, and the safety of the engine is ensured.
