Definitions
- the invention relates to a regenerable soot filter for the exhaust gas from internal combustion engines, with a housing which has inlet and outlet connections for the exhaust gas and thermal insulation, with at least one filter body in the housing and with a filter antechamber between the exhaust gas inlet connection and the filter body, in which deposited soot particles can be burned for the regeneration of the filter body, the housing being divided and in the open state giving access to the exchangeably arranged filter body.
- Foot filters of this type are used, for example, for cleaning the exhaust gas of non-stationary diesel engines.
- the soot filter for example of a forklift equipped in this way, separates the soot particles contained in the exhaust gas during day-to-day operation.
- the filter antechamber is heated to a temperature at which the soot particles in the filter body ignite and burn with the simultaneous entry of combustion air; the ignition temperature of the soot particles is generally reduced catalytically.
- the filter bodies in general a soot filter has several filter bodies connected in parallel
- the filter bodies are held next to one another in such a way that the interior of the housing into a filter antechamber and a collecting space for the filtered exhaust gas is divided.
- a cover that overlaps the filter body on the outflow side and seals it and contains the collecting space can be removed from the rest of the housing after loosening screws or other closures, so that the filter body is accessible for inspection and, if necessary, for replacement.
- soot filter of the type discussed here requires regular regeneration phases during which no exhaust gas can be passed through and the internal combustion engine must therefore be stopped. This in turn means that the system equipped with it, such as the forklift already mentioned, is at a break from work. If you wanted to operate the forklift continuously, you would either have to replace the entire filter (which is practically impossible due to the high assembly costs) or provide two filter systems that can be operated or regenerated in parallel; if the latter is to take place during the operation of the entire system, new difficulties would have to be eliminated or accepted.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of designing the structure of the soot filter in such a way that not only easy access to the filter bodies, but also their rapid replacement is ensured and, moreover, the soot filter cannot be stopped for the entire duration of its regeneration phase.
- the invention provides that the filter antechamber is designed as a chamber separate from the housing and this is combined with the filter body to form a structural unit which is detachably held in the housing.
- the inventive combination of the filter body with a - separate from the rest of the housing - chamber for the filter anteroom brings with it a number of structural and operational advantages.
- the use of thermally high-strength (and therefore more expensive) materials can be restricted to the wall of the chamber, while the rest of the housing consists of cheaper material.
- the unit comprising the chamber and filter bodies — with the soot accumulated during a work cycle — can easily be removed from the housing and replaced by another unit of the same type; With the new or regenerated insert, the internal combustion engine can continue to be operated immediately, while the soot-laden unit is regenerated elsewhere, for example in a stationary filter housing similar structure.
- An end wall of the housing can advantageously be designed as a lid of a box, the lid supporting the structural unit and being detachably and gas-tightly attached to the box.
- the latter can be accomplished not only with screws, but also, for example, with the help of a quick-release fastener.
- the arrangement is preferably such that the cover clamps the assembly between itself and the opposite end wall of the housing, a heat-insulating and sealing plate being arranged between the cover on the one hand and the box and the assembly on the other.
- the chamber (with the holder for the filter body) is a completely independent component, which is particularly advantageous in terms of material selection, manufacture and maintenance (replacement).
- the assembly work during maintenance or repair or the replacement of the entire structural unit described above is further reduced if the inlet and outlet connections are arranged in the end wall of the box opposite the cover and a seal is provided between the inlet connection and an inlet opening of the chamber.
- the arrangement is preferably such that the inlet opening of the chamber outside of is surrounded by a piece of pipe which, in the installed state, protrudes concentrically into the inlet connection piece, which carries an annular seal which rests on the outside of the pipe piece.
- the regeneration of the filter body requires a special heating of the combustion chamber and thus the filter body so that the soot particles burn when combustion air is admitted. That warming and the heat of combustion lead to an expansion of the gas, and the resulting outflow draws combustion air.
- the regeneration of the filter specifically the assembly consisting of the chamber and filter bodies, is not carried out within the housing, the conventional arrangement of a heating device and an inlet for the combustion air is not necessarily required. Rather, for example, the exhaust gas inlet opening of the chamber, which is exposed after the assembly has been removed from the housing, could be used to heat its interior (for example by inserting a heating device) and to supply combustion air.
- a heater protruding into the combustion chamber is provided, this is preferably attached to the lid and protrudes into the chamber.
- the carrier for the heating device can also contain an (usually controllable) inlet for the combustion air.
- the housing designated in FIG. 1 as a whole consists of a box 2 and a cover 3 closing its end face.
- the latter has a circumferential flange 4, which in the example is screwed to a corresponding counter flange 5 of the box 2 (screws 6).
- a quick-action lock (not shown) can also be provided.
- a seal 7 is arranged between the cover 3 and the box 2, which, in the closed state of the housing 1, closes its interior in a gas-tight manner.
- Both the box 2 and the lid 3 have an inner wall 8 and an outer wall 9, between which a layer 10 of heat-insulating material is arranged. Claws la are used to fasten the housing 1, for example on the framework of a forklift.
- a chamber 11 is fastened, with one end edge of its circumferential, multi-cranked side wall 12.
- An end wall 13 of the chamber 11 is fastened to the other end edge of the side wall 12 and thereby closed, also with respect to the rest of the interior of the housing 1.
- the walls 12, 13 consist, for example, of V2A steel, while the outer and inner walls 8, 9 of the housing 1 can consist of less heat-resistant material, for example steel St37; only the inner wall 8 of the cover 3 would be excluded - at least in the area of the chamber 11.
- Filter bodies 14 are inserted in a gas-tight manner in the upper section 12a of the wall 12 of the chamber 11, so that the exhaust gas flowing through the filter has to flow through the filter bodies, which are designed in a lamella-like manner. Outside the chamber 11, the filter body 14 surrounds a collecting space 15 for the exhaust gas freed from soot particles.
- an inlet connection 17 and an outlet connection 18 for the exhaust gas are fastened, in each case only welded to the inner wall 8, while an annular gap 19 is open towards the outer wall 9, one Prevents thermal bridge from the inner wall 8 via the connector 17 or 18 to the outer wall 9.
- the annular gap 19 can be closed by a poorly heat-conducting ring (not shown).
- the inlet nozzle 17 has an annular body 20 which is stepped on the outside and inside with an annular recess 21, in the area of which an annular seal 22 is arranged.
- a tube piece 23 is inserted, which surrounds the inlet opening 24 of the chamber 11 and is fastened in the end wall 13 thereof. With its outside, the pipe section 23 bears against the seal 22, so that a gas-tight connection between the exhaust gas inlet connection 17 and the filter antechamber in the chamber 11 is established.
- a support 25 for the heating element 26 of an electrical heating device, designated as a whole by 27, is fastened coaxially to the inlet connection 17 in an opening in the cover 3.
- the heating element 26 protrudes in the manner shown the interior of the chamber 11 so that it can be heated in the regeneration phase. In a manner not shown, the current is supplied via the connection part 28 of the heating device 27.
- heating element 26 extend through the carrier 25, but combustion air, which flows in through a quantity-adjustable inlet 29, can be supplied — essentially concentrically to this.
- combustion gases generated during the regeneration escape into the atmosphere through the outlet connection 18, just as in filter operation.
- the chamber 11 ' is not permanently attached to the cover 3. Rather, it also has an end wall 13 in the area of the cover, which runs parallel to the opposite end wall 13 at the other end of the chamber 11 '.
- a pipe section 30 (corresponding to the pipe section 23) is inserted into the end wall 13 ′′ and, in the operating state, engages concentrically in the carrier 25 'of the heating element 26'. Seals 31 are provided between the pipe section 30 and the carrier 25 '.
- a plate 32 made of heat-insulating material is provided, which at the same time seals the cover 3 'against the flange 5.
- the chamber 11 'with its side wall 12', the end walls 13 'and 13 "and a bottom 33 is therefore a closed, separate component (made of heat-resistant material) held detachably in the housing 1, into which the filter body - in a known manner again detachable, but sealed against their ring holder - are used.
