Definitions

  • the invention relates to a retrofit kit for retrofitting gasoline injection systems for gasoline engines with a controlled catalyst having a lambda probe, the gasoline injection system having an injection control system with a computer which is equipped with measuring probes for the operating state of the engine, e.g. B. is a temperature sensor, an intake manifold pressure sensor, an intake air sensor and the like in control connection
  • Vehicles with an injection engine can be retrofitted with a regulated catalytic converter for exhaust gas purification.
  • a regulated catalytic converter for exhaust gas purification.
  • the existing injection control could also be modified accordingly.
  • this has the disadvantage that, if the control fails, a repair could only be carried out by a few workshops and that a "replacement repair" with replacement of the injection control is only possible if a suitable, also modified control is available.
  • a replacement repair with replacement of the injection control is only possible if a suitable, also modified control is available.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a retrofit kit for injection gasoline engines which, in combination with the standard, unchanged injection control and a retrofitted commercial catalyst with lambda probe, results in an exhaust gas cleaning system with a regulated three-way catalyst, which results in a results in a significant reduction in emissions of sheep.
  • This retrofit kit should be designed so that the subsequent installation can be carried out easily in a short time and thus also inexpensively.
  • the invention proposes, in particular, that the retrofit kit has an additional computer which is connected to the lambda probe and also to at least one connecting line between a measuring probe and the injection controller in order to change at least one measuring signal coming from one of the measuring probes a change in the mixture preparation and readjustment to an optimal air-fuel ratio within the lambda window.
  • the additional computer With the help of the additional computer, the "incomprehensible" measurement signal of the lambda probe is converted into a quantity that can be evaluated by the existing control. Since the mixture preparation by the control, among other things, e.g. B.
  • a correction value can be superimposed on the measured value coming from the temperature sensor, the intake manifold pressure sensor, etc., so that the then changed measured value can trigger a corresponding reaction of the injection control.
  • the change in the measured value is carried out in such a way that the lambda value 1 required for optimal operation of the catalytic converter is set in accordance with an air / fuel ratio of 14.6: 1 with possibly small tolerance deviations. Accordingly, for example, if there is excess air, what a lambda value greater than 1 results, when using the engine temperature as a "manipulated" measurement signal, the actually measured operating temperature value of the engine is changed to lower values by the superimposed correction value, whereupon the injection control reacts with fuel enrichment of the mixture.
  • the readjustment of the injection control is thus carried out by simulation of "incorrect" measurement data per se. If the computer belonging to the injection control interprets comparatively fast, that is to say measurement data changes occurring at short time intervals, in particular with its input relating to the engine temperature, as an error, other measurement signals which change during operation and thus in a comparatively large area can also be superimposed of the measured value can be used with a correction value. Instead of the temperature measurement value, the intake pipe vacuum measurement value is preferably used in this case.
  • the retrofit kit according to the invention does not require any intervention in the existing system. The connection is made by simply reconnecting the existing connection line between the sensor used in each case and the injection control and by connecting to the on-board electrical system for the power supply.
  • the additional computer preferably has a variable resistor connected in series with a sensor resistor as an actuator for the simulation of the change in the measured variable.
  • the additional computer is connected via a control line to a valve which is located in a connecting line between the tank and the gasoline injection system and that the additional computer for controlling this valve has measurement inputs at least for the engine speed and the engine temperature .
  • this valve controlled by the additional computer depending on the particular operating state of the engine, gasoline vapors can be discharged from the tank into the fuel-air mixture, expediently when the hydrocarbon emission is low.
  • the only figure shows: is a schematic representation of a petrol engine equipped with a gasoline injection system and regulated three way catalyst.
  • An Otto engine 1 shown in the figure is equipped with a gasoline injection system 2, which is connected to an injection control 3.
  • This injection control 3 has a series of measurement inputs 4, the measurement data supplied here being processed by a computer belonging to the injection control 3.
  • data relating to the speed, the intake manifold vacuum, the outside temperature, the engine temperature, the throttle valve position, the position of the idling CO potentiometer, the intake air temperature and the like are supplied, for example.
  • a three-way catalytic converter is now to be retrofitted to reduce pollutant emissions.
  • a catalytic converter 6 and a lambda probe 7 are installed in the exhaust pipe 5.
  • the air-fuel ratio can be checked with the help of the lambda probe.
  • the exhaust gas composition is kept in a range required for the optimal action of the catalytic converter, the so-called lambda window.
  • the measurement data coming from the lambda probe 7 cannot be processed by the existing injection control.
  • the retrofit kit according to the invention has an additional computer 8 in addition to the catalytic converter 6 and the lambda probe 7.
  • a connecting line 9 to the lambda probe 7 and also to one or more connecting lines between one of the aforementioned Measured variables relevant measuring probe and the injection control 3 connected.
  • the additional computer is connected to the connecting line 10 between a temperature sensor 11 on the engine 1 and the injection control 3.
  • the fuel injection quantity is heavily dependent on the engine temperature. At a lower engine temperature, the fuel-air mixture is enriched, while when the operating temperature rises, the proportion of air increases and the mixture is thus leaned. An air / fuel ratio of 14.6: 1 is also sought, especially when using a catalytic converter. This corresponds to a lambda value equal to 1. With the help of the lambda probe, it can now be checked whether this optimal mixture composition is present.
  • the standard injection control 3 is now z. B. supplied via the temperature measurement line 10 from the additional computer 8, a superimposed correction signal.
  • the fuel injection system can also vary depending on this signal, it is now possible to convert the measurement signal coming from the lambda probe 7 through the additional computer 8 and to simulate a temperature measurement value which causes the injection control 3 to correct the injection quantity in the Undertake a regulation to a lambda value 1.
  • the temperature sensor 11 on the motor 1 usually consists of a temperature-dependent resistor with a negative temperature coefficient. This means that the resistance of the temperature sensor decreases with increasing temperature. It is now preferably provided that a variable resistor, for example a transistor, connected in series with the temperature sensor is provided within the additional computer 8. The resistance of the temperature measuring circuit can thus be increased.
  • the injection controller 3 interprets this as a temperature drop and would then enrich the fuel-air mixture, ie increase the amount of gasoline injection.
  • the regulation in the enrichment area is sufficient since the gasoline injection systems or their injection control are generally set to be lean, which would correspond to a lambda value greater than 1.
  • a lambda value of 1 is aimed for an optimal working of the catalytic converter, a (small) shift to a richer mixture is necessary in any case.
  • a variable resistor is connected in parallel with the temperature sensor resistor within the additional computer 8 and that a further variable resistor connected in series with this parallel connection is provided.
  • the resistance value of the temperature sensor can be changed to both smaller and larger values.
  • a series connection of the temperature sensor resistor and a variable resistor is sufficient as an actuator for the simulation of the measured value change.
  • the additional computer preferably also contains an emergency program for generating control signals corresponding to approximately lambda equal to 1 in the event of failure and / or malfunction of the input measurement signals.
  • an emergency program for generating control signals corresponding to approximately lambda equal to 1 in the event of failure and / or malfunction of the input measurement signals.
  • a system connection of the measuring probe resistance and the variable actuator resistance also results in a further safety factor, since an uncontrolled leaning of the engine cannot occur here. If the variable resistor connected in series were short-circuited, the situation would be the same as for the original, standard setting. If the resistance changed to higher values or there was an interruption, only one would go over greasing the mixture, but this would not cause any damage to the engine. In this case, the original state can be restored in the simplest way by simply plugging the connecting line 10.
  • the plug connection 12 present at the end of the connecting line 10 is no longer connected directly to the temperature sensor 11, but to the additional computer 8, which in turn has a plug connection 12 a which is connected to the temperature sensor 11 instead of the plug connection 12. This also makes it clear that no intervention in the existing system is required.
  • the tank and the gasoline injection system can be connected to one another via a line, within which a valve 14 is located.
  • gasoline vapors can be added to the air-fuel mixture via this valve.
  • a carbon active filter can also be used within the connecting line between the tank and the gasoline injection system to bind pollutants.
  • the valve 14 is controlled by the additional computer 8.
  • the additional computer 8 is connected to measurement inputs 15 for the engine speed and a measurement input 16 for the operating temperature of the engine.
  • the measuring inputs 15 are connected to the ignition coil 17, while the measuring input 16 is connected to a further temperature sensor 18, which is also connected to a temperature display 19.
  • the operating state in which gasoline vapors can be fed to the engine is recognized from these measurement data. This is the case when the hydrocarbon content in the exhaust gases is low.
  • the throttle valve switch which is then present can be connected to the additional computer 8 in order to avoid malfunctions in the push mode.
  • a connection for self-diagnosis of the additional computer 8 is designated.
  • the retrofit kit can have a cable harness which is in each case assembled for the specific vehicle type and has corresponding plug connections. This means that this retrofit kit can be installed in no time without special knowledge. Complicated interventions in the existing system can be avoided.
  • a significant advantage of the system according to the invention is that if the additional computer 8 fails, the motor does not stop and can therefore be continued.
