Definitions
- the invention relates to a device according to the preamble of the claim 1.
- the internal combustion engine is idling when the motor vehicle is stationary is operated by firing all cylinders, this can be especially in the case of large-volume, four-cylinder internal combustion engines to critical thermal behavior lead if the amount of heat generated by the combustion is missing Airflow through the coolant can not be dissipated.
- a method for fuel injection is known from DE 36 23 040 A1 which the injection is switched off sequentially in overrun mode. A lifting the injection shutdown due to a low catalyst temperature not known from this document.
- This object is achieved in a device for idle control of a motor vehicle internal combustion engine with exhaust gas catalytic converter and lambda probe solved in that the means for switching off the injection valves are designed such that the injection valves in idle mode of the internal combustion engine depending on the internal combustion engine firing order can be switched off sequentially according to a specified program are.
- This embodiment of the invention is also suitable for 6-cylinder internal combustion engines.
- the exhaust gas catalytic converter does not fall below that for a proper exhaust gas conversion can cool down the required temperature.
- This has an improved exhaust emission behavior of the internal combustion engine Episode.
- the invention can, in particular, the thermal behavior in large-volume internal combustion engines in idle mode when the cooling Impact of the airstream is missing, can be significantly improved.
- the sequential shutdown takes place the injection valves only when the internal combustion engine is idling, if the coolant temperature of the internal combustion engine is greater than 80 ° C and / or the air temperature in the intake air collector is greater than 20 ° C. So that is achieved that the single cylinder shutdown only when the engine is idling when the internal combustion engine is warm and / or when the outside temperature is sufficiently warm he follows.
- the sequential shutdown of the injection valves only at one Vehicle speed greater than 5 km / h canceled.
- the temperature of the catalytic converter by measuring or monitoring the electrical voltage of the lambda probe assigned to the exhaust gas catalytic converter.
- the logic diagram of FIG. 1 shows the functioning of a device for idle control of a motor vehicle internal combustion engine with two rows of cylinders, each of which is assigned an exhaust gas catalytic converter with a lambda probe.
- the OR gate 1 receives as input variables the information as to whether the coolant temperature T K is greater than 80 ° C and the further information as to whether the air temperature T S in the intake air collector of the internal combustion engine is greater than 20 ° C. In the case of an internal combustion engine that is at operating temperature and not exactly extremely wintry ambient temperatures, the OR gate 1 then emits an enable signal to a first AND gate 2. As a further input variable, this first AND gate 2 is supplied with the information as to whether the speed V FZG of the motor vehicle is less than 5 km / h.
- the first AND gate 2 outputs a logic signal "1" to the second AND gate 3.
- the second AND gate 3 receives a further logic signal "1" at its second input. This fulfills all of the requirements that the injection valves of one of the two cylinder rows can be switched off when the internal combustion engine is idling. This result is stored in the memory element 4 until any change. The memory element 4 passes this information on to the two subsequent AND elements 5 and 6.
- the AND gate 5 receives the information about the voltage U L1 of the first lambda probe of the first exhaust gas catalytic converter at its second input
- the AND gate 6 receives the information about the voltage U L2 of the second lambda probe of the second input second catalytic converter.
- the logic diagram of Fig. 2 represents the operation of the invention. It is identical to the logic diagram of FIG. 1 in the first three logic elements 1, 2 and 3. Also in the embodiment of FIG. 2, the AND gate 3 sends a logical "1" signal to the AND gate 8 when the coolant temperature T K is greater than 80 ° C and / or the air temperature T S in the air collector of the internal combustion engine is greater Is 20 ° and in addition the vehicle speed V FZG is less than 5 km / h and finally the internal combustion engine is operated at idle, ie the idle contact is closed. At its second input, this AND gate 8 receives the information as to whether the electrical voltage U L of the lambda probe of the exhaust gas catalytic converter is greater or less than a limit voltage U G.
- the injectors can be switched off sequentially depending on the engine ignition sequence according to a predetermined program when the internal combustion engine is idling.
- the voltage of the lambda probe U L falls below the limit value U G , then this means that the exhaust gas catalytic converter has already cooled down to its minimum temperature required for the proper conversion, and consequently the sequential injection valve shutdown is canceled again at least for a predetermined period of time got to. Only when the exhaust gas catalytic converter has reached a sufficiently high operating temperature again, that is, when the electrical voltage U L of the lambda probe is again greater than the limit voltage U G , can the injection valves be switched off sequentially again. The sequential shutdown of the injection valves of the internal combustion engine is then carried out by the internal combustion engine control unit 9.
- the diagram of FIG. 3 shows the relationship between the electrical voltage U L of the lambda probe as a function of the temperature T of the associated exhaust gas catalytic converter.
- the electrical voltage U L of the lambda probe decreases with decreasing temperature T of the exhaust gas catalytic converter.
- the limit temperature T G shown in the diagram of FIG. 3 represents the minimum temperature that the exhaust gas catalytic converter must have in order for it to function properly. In the diagram, this limit temperature T G corresponds to a limit voltage U G. If the exhaust gas catalytic converter of the internal combustion engine cools below the operating temperature T G due to an excessively long sequential shutdown of the injection valves, then the electrical voltage U L of the associated lambda probe drops below the limit value U G. Because of this relationship, the voltage U L of the lambda probe can be used as a measure of the temperature of the associated exhaust gas catalytic converter, so that a separate temperature sensor can be saved.
- the internal combustion engine becomes a reduction while maintaining the exhaust gas quality fuel consumption and an improvement in thermal behavior the internal combustion engine reached.
