Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for operating a hydraulic actuator, in particular for a gas exchange valve of an internal combustion engine, in which a movement of an actuating element of the actuator is brought about in that a working space of the actuator by means of a valve device with a fluid reservoir, in which hydraulic fluid is stored under pressure, can be connected and separated therefrom, and in which the stroke of the actuating element of the actuator depends on a fluid volume present in the working space.
- Hydraulic fluid is pumped from a high-pressure pump into a line system in which the hydraulic fluid is stored under very high pressure.
- An outlet of the work area is also connected to a low pressure area via a 2/2-way valve.
- Positioning the piston of the hydraulic actuator is not regulated, but can only be controlled.
- the object of the present invention is to develop a method of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that the actuating element of the actuator can be positioned as precisely as possible.
- This object is achieved in a method of the type mentioned at the outset in that, in order to determine a current operating behavior of the actuator, the working space is briefly connected to the fluid reservoir, the corresponding pressure drop in the fluid reservoir is detected, and the corresponding stroke is obtained from the pressure drop using known geometric variables of the actuator is determined, and at least one pair of values consisting of the opening period and the stroke is formed.
- the determined pair of values can be compared, for example, with a pair of values determined on a test bench or during a previous process run. In this way, signs of aging, changed ambient conditions, and so on, can be recorded and taken into account when controlling the valve devices. It is also possible to output information if the current operating behavior of the actuator has changed in an impermissible manner. This increases the
- the pressure drop in the fluid reservoir be recorded for different periods during which the working space of the actuator is connected to the fluid reservoir and that a current characteristic curve is formed from the pairs of values determined.
- the control element of the hydraulic actuator can be positioned very precisely in normal operation without complex control and the cost-intensive installation of a sensor which detects the stroke of the control element of the hydraulic actuator being necessary. The precise positioning of the control element is therefore fundamentally possible without additional hardware and therefore inexpensively.
- the actuating element can be brought into the initial or the end position simply by the valve device being in the one or the other position for a correspondingly long time.
- the reaching of the starting and / or the end position of the actuating element can also be detected by means of a knock sensor. This improves the precision of the above-mentioned standardization or calibration.
- the at least one pair of values be formed taking into account the elasticity module of the hydraulic fluid and / or the elasticity of the fluid reservoir. This also leads to an even higher accuracy of the current characteristic of the hydraulic actuator. It can also be taken into account that the elastic modulus of the hydraulic fluid is temperature and pressure dependent. The elasticity of the fluid reservoir, that is, of its walls, can also change depending on the temperature.
- the temperature and / or the viscosity of the hydraulic fluid is detected during the determination of the current operating behavior of the actuator and that at least one pair of values for a certain viscosity and / or a certain temperature of the hydraulic fluid is formed.
- a whole set of pairs of values or characteristic curves can be formed, wherein a pair of values or a characteristic curve only applies to very specific operating or ambient conditions. This also ultimately leads to an even better precision in the positioning of the actuating element of the hydraulic actuator.
- the response time of the valve device is determined from the beginning of the pressure drop in the fluid reservoir.
- Response time i.e. the time between the generation of the control signal and the beginning of the pressure drop caused by the movement of the actuating element, is particularly important. This response time can be determined “incidentally" in the method according to the invention and in the
- the fluid reservoir is fluidly separated from a pressure reservoir and / or a high-pressure pump for supplying the fluid reservoir is switched off.
- the method according to the invention can in principle also be carried out when a pressure accumulator is connected to the fluid accumulator or a high-pressure pump feeds into the fluid accumulator; in these cases, however, a very complex consideration of the change in shape of the pressure accumulator (for example by means of a path detection on the pressure accumulator) or the delivery rate of the High pressure pump required. This can be dispensed with if, as suggested, the fluid reservoir is simply separated from the pressure reservoir or from the high pressure pump.
- this improves the accuracy of the method according to the invention, since this measure reduces the volume of the fluid reservoir, which, with appropriate control of the valve device with the same stroke of the actuating element of the hydraulic actuator, leads to a greater pressure drop, which can be measured with greater accuracy ,
- hydraulic actuator is used to actuate a gas exchange valve of an internal combustion engine, it is advantageous if the current operating behavior after the
- Fluid storage which supplies the actuator.
- the user can thus recognize the availability of the correct mode of operation of the hydraulic actuator and thus ultimately of the gas exchange valve, and, if necessary, the operation of the internal combustion engine can be ended automatically or restricted to a safety area in order to avoid damage to the internal combustion engine due to an incorrectly operating gas exchange valve. It goes without saying that monitoring the pressure drop is made easier when a high pressure pump is connected to the fluid reservoir
- Hydraulic fluid is supplied, switched off or completely separated from the fluid reservoir. The same applies to a pressure accumulator.
- the invention also relates to a computer program which is programmed to carry out the above method and is stored on a storage medium.
- the present invention also relates to a control and / or regulating device for an internal combustion engine, which is programmed for use in a method of the above type.
- the present invention also relates to an internal combustion engine, in particular for a motor vehicle, with a control and / or regulating device which is programmed for use in a method of the above type.
- Figure 1 is a schematic representation of an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle
- Gas exchange valves each of which is actuated by a hydraulic actuator which is connected to a hydraulic system
- FIG. 2 is a more detailed representation of the hydraulic system of Figure 1;
- Figure 3 is a flow chart showing a method for
- Figure 4 is an illustration similar to Figure 2 of an alternative embodiment of a hydraulic system.
- FIG 5 is a flow chart similar to Figure 3 one
- an internal combustion engine bears the reference number 10 overall. It serves to drive one Motor vehicle 12, which is shown only symbolically in Figure 1 by a dashed line.
- the internal combustion engine 10 is a multi-cylinder reciprocating piston internal combustion engine. For reasons of clarity, however, only the essential elements of a single cylinder are shown in FIG. 1.
- the cylinder shown in FIG. 1 comprises a combustion chamber 14, which is delimited, among other things, by a piston 16. Air is supplied to the combustion chamber 14 via an inflow pipe 18 and a first gas exchange valve 20. The first gas exchange valve 20 is therefore the inlet valve of the combustion chamber 14. The combustion exhaust gases are conducted from the combustion chamber 14 via a second gas exchange valve 22 into an exhaust pipe 24. The second gas exchange valve is therefore an exhaust valve of the combustion chamber 14.
- the intake valve 20 and the exhaust valve 22 are not actuated by a camshaft, but rather by a hydraulic actuator 26 and 28, respectively.
- the hydraulic actuator 26 is controlled by a hydraulic system 30, the actuator 28 by a hydraulic system 31, the exact configuration of which is further below in the
- the hydraulic systems 30 and 31 are in turn controlled by a control device 32.
- the injector 34 is connected to a fuel system 36.
- the fuel-air mixture located in the combustion chamber 14 is ignited by a spark plug 38, which from an ignition system 40 is controlled.
- the elements 38 and 40 can be omitted.
- the hydraulic systems 30 and 31 are constructed identically. They are now explained using the hydraulic system 30 according to FIG. 2:
- Hydraulic fluid (not shown) is stored in a reservoir 42.
- a controllable high-pressure pump 44 which is driven by an electric motor 46, conveys the hydraulic fluid from the reservoir 42 via a check valve 48 into a high-pressure line 50.
- a pressure accumulator 52 is connected to the high-pressure line 50. This can be, for example, a pressure accumulator with a spring-loaded piston.
- a pressure sensor 54 detects the pressure in the high-pressure line 50 and transmits corresponding signals to the control unit 32.
- the hydraulic actuator 26 is a two-way hydraulic cylinder.
- a piston 58 is movably arranged in a housing 56.
- Working space 60 A fluid space present between the underside of the piston 58, a piston rod 62 connected to it and the housing 56 forms a second working space 64.
- a compression spring 66 is clamped between the underside of the piston 58 and the housing 56.
- Piston rod 62 is connected to inlet valve 20.
- a storage chamber 68 is present in the high-pressure line 50, which is a collecting line in the sense of a "High pressure rail” forms.
- the second working space 64 is continuously connected to the high-pressure line 50 or the storage chamber 68 via a branch line 70.
- a 2/2-way valve 72 Arranged between the storage chamber 68 and the first working space 60 is a 2/2-way valve 72 which is closed in its spring-loaded rest position 74 and opened in its actuated position 76 (the 2/2-way valve 72 is actuated by an electromagnet 78).
- Working space 64 overall form a fluid reservoir 80, which is closed in the direction of the high-pressure pump 44 by the check valve 48 and can be closed off by the valve 72 to the first working space 60.
- the first working space 60 is connected to the reservoir 42 via a return line 82.
- a 2/2-way valve 84 and a check valve 86 are arranged in the return line 82.
- the 2/2-way valve 84 is open in its spring-loaded rest position 88 and closed in the actuated position 90. It is brought into the closed position 90 by an electromagnet 92.
- a back and forth movement of the inlet valve 20 is brought about by an alternating actuation of the two solenoid valves 72 and 84.
- the opening duration of the solenoid valve 72 determines how much hydraulic fluid gets into the working space 60 of the hydraulic actuator 26.
- the amount of hydraulic fluid present in the first working space 60 in turn determines the position or the stroke of the piston 58 and ultimately also the stroke of the inlet valve 20.
- a closing of the Intake valve 20 is effected when solenoid valve 72 is closed by opening solenoid valve 84.
- the solenoid valve 84 is brought into its closed position 90.
- the solenoid valve 72 is opened for a defined period of time dt and then closed again.
- the pressure drop 54 in the fluid reservoir 80 is detected by the pressure sensor 54 (block 104). This is saved with the corresponding time period dt as a pair of values dp, dt.
- a block 106 queries whether the piston 58 has moved to its lower end position in FIG. 2. This is detected by a knock sensor, not shown in Figures 1 and 2. If the answer in block 106 is "no", the solenoid valve 84 is opened in block 108 and then closed again. As a result, the first working space 60 is relieved and the piston 58 returns to its upper starting position in FIG. 2. In a time block 110, the time period dt is increased by a fixed difference value dtl. The system then returns to block 102. With the method shown in FIG.
- the solenoid valve 72 is thus opened successively over an increasingly longer period of time, so that a correspondingly larger amount of hydraulic fluid flows from the fluid reservoir 80 into the first working space 60 and a correspondingly different pressure drop is detected by the pressure sensor 54. It goes without saying that a pressure drop at the pressure sensor 54 is only determined when the pressure accumulator 52 is blocked, for example. If this is not possible, the change in state of the pressure accumulator 52 would alternatively also have to be recorded.
- Block 112 in which the quotient of the pressure drop dpa and the corresponding maximum stroke dha between the upper stop and the lower stop of the piston 58 is formed.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 A second exemplary embodiment of a hydraulic system 30 will now be explained with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. Elements and areas which have functions equivalent to elements and areas of the exemplary embodiment described in connection with FIGS. 2 and 3 have the same reference symbols. They are not explained in detail again.
- the hydraulic system 30 shown in FIG. 4 differs from that of FIG. 2 by an additional solenoid valve 118, which is arranged between the check valve 48 and the pressure accumulator 52 on the one hand and the pressure sensor 54 on the other hand.
- the additional solenoid valve 118 With the additional solenoid valve 118, the fluid reservoir 80 can therefore be separated from the pressure reservoir 52, which facilitates the detection of the pressure drop dp.
- a temperature sensor 120 and a viscosity sensor 122 are provided, which detect the temperature or the viscosity of the hydraulic fluid present in the fluid reservoir 80 and send corresponding signals to the control unit 32.
- the current operating behavior of the hydraulic actuator 26 from FIG. 4 is determined by means of a method which is now explained with reference to FIG. 5:
- the valve 118 in the method shown in FIG. 5 is also de-energized in block 100.
- this results in the pressure accumulator 52 being separated from the fluid accumulator 80, and the high-pressure pump 44 is also separated from the fluid accumulator 80. This can therefore continue if necessary while the method shown in FIG. 5 is being carried out.
- the valve 72 is opened during a same period of time dtl during several process loops. So it is gradually opened up.
- a counter n is incremented by 1, and in block 124 it is queried whether the counter n is greater than a limit value G.
- the number of measurement processes is therefore limited to a fixed value by the limit value G.
- the valve 72 is opened for a period dt2 which is so long that the piston 58 definitely reaches its lower end position in FIG. 4. A detection of this process by means of a knock sensor is therefore not necessary here.
- the methods specified in FIGS. 3 and 5 are preferably initiated by the control device 32 immediately after the internal combustion engine 10 has been switched off.
- the control unit 32 knows the position of the pistons 16 of the individual cylinders of the internal combustion engine 10, and The method shown in FIGS. 3 and 5 is only carried out for those cylinders in which it is ensured that there can be no collision between the inlet valve 22 and the corresponding piston 16 or with other valves. If the method is carried out with a certain regularity after the internal combustion engine has been switched off, it is nevertheless ensured that the current operating behavior of the hydraulic actuators 26 of the intake valves 20 of all cylinders is known. However, that is also possible
- the current operating behavior of the hydraulic actuators 28 of the exhaust valves 22 is also determined in an analogous manner. It may also be necessary to take into account that there may be collisions between the intake valve 20 and the exhaust valve 22 of a cylinder. If the methods recorded in FIGS. 3 and 5 are carried out repeatedly, mean values can also be formed, for example, over the last three method sequences, in order to improve the accuracy of the method result. Furthermore, the response time of the solenoid valve 72 can be determined from the beginning of the pressure drop dp in the fluid reservoir 80.
- the method described above is used in internal combustion engines with intake manifold injection and in diesel internal combustion engines.
- valve 118 in an operating phase in which the outlet valve 20 is at rest, valve 118 is closed and the development of the pressure in fluid reservoir 80 is monitored. If the pressure drop is too great within a certain period of time, a message is issued. This can consist of an entry in a fault memory, or a warning display for the user of the internal combustion engine 10 can light up. In such a case, it is also conceivable to shut down the internal combustion engine 10 completely or to permit only restricted safety operation in order to avoid further damage to the internal combustion engine 10.
