Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a pressure accumulation type fuel injection system for accumulating high-pressure fuel, which is pressurized and pressure-fed by a fuel supply pump driven by an engine, in a common rail and for injecting and supplying the high-pressure fuel accumulated in the common rail into respective cylinders of the engine through fuel injection valves.
  • the invention relates to a pressure accumulation type fuel injection system having a pressure limiter, which opens when the fuel pressure in the common rail exceeds a limit set pressure in order to limit the fuel pressure in the common rail to the limit set pressure or under.
  • a pressure accumulation type fuel injection system for accumulating high-pressure fuel which is pressurized and pressure-fed by a fuel supply pump driven by an engine, in a common rail, and for supplying the accumulated high-pressure fuel into respective cylinders of the engine through injection with a plurality of fuel injection valves mounted on the respective cylinders is publicly known as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Unexamined Publication No. 2001-295685 (pp. 1 to 7 and Figs. 1 to 6 ), for instance.
  • a suction control valve (SCV) is disposed in a fuel supply passage leading to a pressurizing chamber of the fuel supply pump.
  • the SCV changes a discharging quantity of the high-pressure fuel discharged from the pressurizing chamber of the fuel supply pump into the common rail by regulating a drawing quantity of the fuel drawn into the pressurizing chamber of the fuel supply pump from a fuel tank through a feed pump.
  • a normally open type electromagnetic valve which opens fully when energization is stopped, is employed as the SCV.
  • the fuel supply pump pressure-feeds the high-pressure fuel excessively into the common rail.
  • the fuel pressure in a high-pressure piping passage (system) leading from the pressurizing chamber of the fuel supply pump to high-pressure sealing portions of the injectors of the respective cylinders through the common rail may exceed the limit set pressure (an abnormally high pressure beyond a supposed pressure for the system).
  • a pressure limiter is disposed at the end of the common rail. If an abnormally high pressure is generated in the system, the pressure limiter quickly opens in a mechanical manner in order to avoid the abnormally high-pressure state in the common rail.
  • the reliability of the pressure accumulation type fuel injection system is warranted.
  • the fuel supply pump is brought to a full capacity discharging state if the fully opening abnormality failure is generated in the SCV because of the breakage of the wire harness for transmitting the pump driving signal to drive the SCV.
  • the SCV loses its circuit conductivity and cannot be controlled any more by an engine control unit (ECU). Therefore, the abnormally high-pressure state caused in the common rail by the breakage of the wire harness cannot be avoided or the safety and reliability of the pressure accumulation type fuel injection system cannot be ensured without employing the pressure limiter capable of mechanically opening.
  • the abnormally high-pressure state in the common rail can be avoided and the safety of the system can be ensured by employing a pressure control valve or a pressure relief valve, which can be electrically operated based on the command of the ECU, instead of the pressure limiter.
  • this replacement causes a problem that a system cost is increased.
  • the fuel supply pump is driven by the rotational force in synchronization with the engine rotation speed. Therefore, specifically in an operation area such as a low engine rotation speed operation area where the fuel discharging quantity cannot be ensured sufficiently, the fuel discharging quantity substantially coincides with the injector leak quantity when the fuel pressure is lower than the valve-opening set pressure of the pressure limiter. Therefore, the possibility that the common rail pressure cannot be increased to the valve-opening set pressure of the pressure limiter should be considered. More specifically, in order to avoid the abnormally high-pressure state in the common rail, an additional abnormality diagnosis device is required in addition to the pressure limiter.
  • a pressure accumulation type fuel injection system for accumulating high-pressure fuel according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from DE 196 23 150 A1 .
  • a pressure accumulation type fuel injection system can highly precisely detect an abnormally high-pressure state, in which a fuel pressure in a common rail sensed by fuel pressure sensing means exceeds a pump usage allowable area that affects deterioration of reliability of a fuel supply pump or an injector usage allowance area that affects deterioration of reliability of an injector, when the abnormally high-pressure state continues for a predetermined period. Then, the fuel injection system controls an engine so as to avoid the abnormally high-pressure state.
  • the abnormally high-pressure state is caused when a pressure safety valve, which is a key component of safety designing of the accumulation type fuel injection system, cannot open because of an increase in a fuel leak quantity caused by functional degradation of the injector or the fuel supply pump, a decrease in a fuel discharging quantity due to size reduction of the fuel supply pump, or an increase in the fuel leak quantity due to an increase in an injection pressure.

  • the ECU 10 electronically controls actuators of the injectors 3 and an actuator of the SCV 5.
  • the common rail 2 is required to continuously accumulate the fuel at the high pressure corresponding to the fuel injection pressure. Therefore, the common rail 2 is connected to a discharge port of the fuel supply pump 4, which discharges the high-pressure fuel, through a fuel passage (a high-pressure passage) 11. Leak fuel from the injectors 3 and the fuel supply pump 4 is returned to a fuel tank 6 through leak pipes (fuel return passages) 12, 13, 14.
  • a pressure limiter 16 is disposed in a return pipe (a fuel return passage) 15 leading from the common rail 2 to the fuel tank 6.
  • the pressure limiter 16 is a pressure safety valve, which opens when the fuel pressure in the common rail 2 exceeds a limit set pressure (a pressure limiter opening set value: a pressure limiter opening pressure, a P/L opening pressure, hereafter). Thus, the pressure limiter 16 limits the fuel pressure in the common rail 2 to the P/L opening pressure or under.
  • the injector 3 is an electromagnetic fuel injection valve mounted in each cylinder of the engine 1.
  • the injector 3 has a fuel injection nozzle, an electromagnetic actuator, needle biasing means and the like.
  • the fuel injection nozzle is connected to a downstream end of one of a plurality of branching pipes 17 branching from the common rail 2 and supplies the high-pressure fuel accumulated in the common rail 2 into the combustion chamber of the cylinder through injection.
  • the electromagnetic actuator drives a nozzle needle accommodated in the fuel injection nozzle in a valve-opening direction.
  • the needle biasing means biases the nozzle needle in a valve-closing direction.
  • the fuel injection from the injector 3 of each cylinder into the combustion chamber of the cylinder is electronically controlled by turning on and off energization to an injection control electromagnetic valve as the electromagnetic actuator connected to the downstream end of each branching pipe 17. More specifically, the high-pressure fuel accumulated in the common rail 2 is injected and supplied into the combustion chamber of the cylinder of the engine 1 while the injection control electromagnetic valve of the injector 3 of the cylinder is open.

  • the plunger is driven by the pump drive shaft 22.
  • the pressurizing chamber pressurizes the fuel with the reciprocating movement of the plunger.
  • the fuel supply pump 4 pressurizes the fuel drawn by the feed pump through a fuel pipe 19 and discharges the high-pressure fuel from the discharge port to the common rail 2.
  • the SCV 5 is disposed in a fuel suction passage for supplying the fuel from the feed pump to the pressurizing chamber of the fuel supply pump 4.
  • the SCV 5 changes an opening area of the fuel suction passage.
  • the SCV 5 is a pump flow control valve (a drawing quantity control electromagnetic valve) electronically controlled with a pump driving signal provided by the ECU 10 through a pump driving circuit.
  • the SCV 5 controls the drawing quantity of the fuel drawn from the feed pump into the pressurizing chamber of the fuel supply pump 4 through the fuel suction passage.
  • the SCV 5 changes the injection pressure of the fuel injected from the respective injectors 3 into the engine 1, or the fuel pressure (the common rail pressure) in the common rail 2.
  • the SCV 5 includes a valve member for changing the opening area of the fuel suction passage and a solenoid coil for regulating a valve opening degree (an opening area of a valve port, a lifting degree of the valve) in accordance with the pump driving signal.
  • the SCV 5 is a normally open type electromagnetic valve, which fully opens when energization to the solenoid coil is stopped.
  • the ECU 10 includes a microcomputer having known structure including functions of a CPU for performing control processing and calculation processing, a memory (ROM, RAM) for storing various programs and data, an input circuit, an output circuit, a power supply circuit, an injector driving circuit (EDU), the pump driving circuit and the like. If an ignition switch is turned on (IG ⁇ ON), the ECU 10 receives ECU power supply and electronically controls the actuators of respective control parts such as the injectors 3 or the fuel supply pump 4 based on the control programs stored in the memory. If the ignition switch is turned off (IG ⁇ OFF) and the supply of the ECU power is stopped, the above control based on the control programs stored in the memory is ended compulsorily.
  • the sensor signals from the various sensors are converted from analog signals into digital signals by an A/D converter and are inputted to the microcomputer included in the ECU 10.
  • the microcomputer is connected with operating condition detecting means for detecting the operating state or the operating condition of the engine 1, such as a rotation speed sensor 31 for sensing engine rotation speed NE, an accelerator position sensor 32 for sensing an accelerator position ACCP, a cooling water temperature sensor 33 for sensing engine cooling water temperature THW, a fuel temperature sensor 34 for sensing the temperature THF of the fuel on the pump suction side, or the fuel drawn into the fuel supply pump 4, and the like.
  • the ECU 10 includes basic injection quantity determining means, command injection quantity determining means, injection timing determining means, injection period determining means, and injector driving means.

  • the injection period determining means calculates an energization period (injection pulse length, injection pulse width, a command injection period) of the injection control electromagnetic valve of the injector 3 in accordance with the common rail pressure PC and the command injection quantity QFIN, based on a characteristic map made in advance by measurement through experimentation and the like.
  • the injector driving means applies a pulse-shaped injector driving current (an INJ driving current, an injector injection pulse) to the injection control electromagnetic valve of the injector 3 of each cylinder through the injector driving circuit EDU.
  • the ECU 10 includes discharging quantity controlling means for calculating the optimum common rail pressure for the operating conditions of the engine 1 and for driving the SCV 5 of the fuel supply pump 4 through the pump driving circuit. More specifically, the ECU 10 calculates the target common rail pressure Pt in accordance with engine operation information such as the engine rotation speed NE sensed by the rotation speed sensor 31 and the accelerator position ACCP sensed by the accelerator position sensor 32, and correction values corresponding to the engine cooling water temperature THW sensed by the cooling water temperature sensor 33 and the fuel temperature THF on the pump suction side sensed by the fuel temperature sensor 34.

  • SCV driving current pump driving signal
  • a common rail pressure sensor 35 should be attached to the common rail 2, and the pump driving signal (the SCV driving current) applied to the solenoid coil of the SCV 5 of the fuel supply pump 4 should be feedback-controlled so that the common rail pressure PC sensed by the common rail pressure sensor 35 substantially coincides with the target common rail pressure Pt determined in accordance with the operating condition or the operating state of the engine 1.
  • the driving current applied to the solenoid coil of the SCV 5 should preferably be controlled through duty cycle control.
  • the common rail pressure sensor 35 outputs an electric signal corresponding to the fuel pressure (the common rail pressure, the actual fuel pressure) in the common rail 2 corresponding to the injection pressure of the fuel injected into the combustion chambers of the respective cylinders of the engine 1.
  • a strain gauge type pressure sensor is employed as the common rail pressure sensor 35. Therefore, the ECU 10 has fuel pressure sensing means for calculating the common rail pressure (the actual fuel pressure) PC from the electric signal (a voltage signal, a pressure signal) outputted from the common rail pressure sensor 35. If the electric signal outputted from the common rail pressure sensor 35 is equal to or greater than an upper limit value (for instance, 5 V), the ECU 10 determines that a sensor abnormality is generated and does not perform a pump and injector abnormality diagnosis. In this case, the ECU 10 stops the feedback control by replacing the output of the common rail pressure sensor 35 with the target common rail pressure Pt, for instance. Then, the ECU 10 performs a fail-safe operation (a limp home operation) with an open loop. Alternatively, the ECU 10 outputs an engine stop demand instantly.
  • the normally used voltage of the electric signal outputted from the common rail pressure sensor 35 is in a range from 0.5 V to 4.5 V, for instance.
  • Fig. 2 is a flowchart showing a pump and injector abnormality diagnosing method.
  • the main routine shown in Fig. 2 is executed at a predetermined time interval (100 ms, for instance).
  • the flowchart of the present embodiment corresponds to the control program stored in the memory.
  • the flowchart shown in Fig. 2 is started when the ignition switch is switched from the off state (OFF) to the on state (ON) and the main relay is turned on to supply the ECU power from the battery to the ECU 10, and is repeatedly executed at the predetermined time interval.
  • the ignition switch is switched from the on state (ON) to the off state (OFF) so that the main relay is turned off and the ECU power supply to the ECU 10 is stopped, the execution of the flowchart is compulsorily ended.
  • the common rail pressure PC corresponding to the electric signal outputted from the common rail pressure sensor 35 is inputted in Step S1. Then, it is determined whether or not the common rail pressure sensor 35 is normal in Step S2. The determination of the normality of the common rail pressure sensor 35 is performed through a publicly known method of examining whether or not the electric signal (the output voltage) outputted from the common rail pressure sensor 35 is within a predetermined range (the normally used voltage range from 0.5 V to 4.5 V, for instance).
  • Step S2 If the result of the determination in Step S2 is "NO”, the main routine shown in Fig. 2 is ended without executing the abnormality diagnosis of the fuel supply pump 4 and the injector 3. If the result of the determination in Step S2 is "YES”, the engine rotation speed NE sensed by the rotation speed sensor 31 is calculated in Step S3.
  • a crank angle sensor is employed as the rotation speed sensor 31.

  • the fuel supply pump 4 is designed on the premise that the fuel supply pump 4 is used in a pump usage allowable area "A" in Fig. 3 .
  • the common rail pressure PC may exceed a first threshold PCTH1 and may be brought into an area "B” if the common rail pressure PC is increased by some failures (for instance, an abnormality failure that the fuel discharging quantity increases and the ECU 10 cannot control the SCV 5).
  • the common rail pressure PC should preferably be quickly dropped by a method of stopping the engine 1, for instance, in order to retain the reliability of the fuel supply pump 4.
  • NEMAX represents a maximum value (6000 rpm, for instance) of the permissible rotation speed NE of the engine 1 for the fuel supply pump 4 and PLIMIT is the limit set pressure (the P/L opening pressure) of the common rail type fuel injection system.
  • the limit set pressure PLIMIT is 250 MPa, for instance.
  • the fuel supply pump 4 of the common rail type fuel injection system has a structure for ensuring lubrication of a pumping mechanism with diesel oil as the fuel. Therefore, in an area where the engine rotation speed NE is very low (as shown by an area “C” in Fig. 3 ) or is very high (as shown by an area “D” in Fig. 3 ), the influence on the reliability becomes great. In the areas "C", “D” in Fig. 3 , the fuel temperature excessively rises and the injector temperature or the injector leak temperature rises to a high value. Therefore, there is a possibility that heat resistance reliability of an insulating film of a rubber seal or a solenoid coil in the injector 3 and the like may be degraded.
  • the low-speed and high-pressure state is the state in which the engine rotation speed NE is equal to or lower than a predetermined value (1000 rpm, for instance) and the common rail pressure PC is high.

  • the first threshold PCTH1 corresponding to the pump usage allowable area is calculated in Step S11 of the flowchart shown in Fig. 4 . Then, it is determined whether or not the common rail pressure PC sensed by the common rail pressure sensor 35 is higher than the first threshold PCTH1 in Step S12. If the result of the determination in Step S12 is "YES", a counter CPMP1B is incremented in Step S13.
  • Step S12 If the result of the determination in Step S12 is "NO", the counter CPMP1B is reset to zero in Step S14.
  • Step S18 it is determined whether or not the previous value of the flag XCPMP1B is zero in Step S19. More specifically, it is determined whether or not XCPMP1B is incremented from zero to one in Step S19. If the result of the determination in step S19 is "YES", a counter CPMP1 is incremented by an increment masking period KCPMP1B in Step S20.
  • Step S19 If the result of the determination in Step S19 is "NO", the counter CPMP1 is incremented by one in Step S21.
  • the counter CPMP1B which is incremented when the common rail pressure PC exceeds the first threshold PCTH1, functions as a masking for prohibiting the increment of the counter CPMP1 and is very important for excluding the following causes of the erroneous diagnosis.
  • the determination of whether or not the counter CPMP1B is greater than the increment masking period KCPMP1B is necessary in order to prohibit the increment of the counter CPMP1.
  • causes of the erroneous diagnosis such as the noises instantaneously superposed on the electric signal (for instance, the pressure signal corresponding to the fuel pressure in the common rail 2) outputted from the common rail pressure sensor 35 can be excluded.
  • Step S22 to Step S31 and Step S32 are basically similar to the steps from Step S11 to Step S20 and Step S21, but it is determined whether or not the common rail pressure PC exceeds the second threshold PCTH2 in the steps from Step S22 to Step S31 and Step S32.
  • Step S22 the second threshold PCTH2 is calculated. Then, in Step S23, it is determined whether or not the common rail pressure PC sensed by the common rail pressure sensor 35 is higher than the second threshold PCTH2. If the result of the determination in Step S23 is "YES", a counter CPMP2B is incremented in Step S24.
  • Step S23 If the result of the determination in Step S23 is "NO", the counter CPMP2B is reset to zero in Step S25.
  • Step S29 If the result of the determination in Step S29 is "YES”, it is determined whether or not the previous value of the flag XCPMP2B is zero in Step S30. More specifically, it is determined whether or not the flag XCPMP2B has been incremented from zero to one in Step S30. If the result of the determination in Step S30 is "YES”, a counter CPMP2 is incremented by a value provided by multiplying an increment masking period KCPMP2B by a weight KWEIGHT in Step S31.
