  • the engine control method is to increase the mixture amount (fuel amount) for the drive unit in the short term immediately before the high-lift is engaged, to prevent an increased power demand and associated drop in engine speed.
  • the fuel quantity is reduced so that it does not come as a result of the suddenly reduced power demand to an increased engine speed.
  • the disadvantage of the aforementioned engine control method is that the system can not be controlled independently in an optimal, energy-efficient power range or optimal operating points for the drive unit can be adjusted.
  • An operating point is understood to mean the power value P, which results from the engine speed and the engine torque.
  • An optimal cooperation between the control and regulating device and the drive unit is thus not given.
  • the drive unit can be operated at operating points during field operation, because the drive device in each case the required drive power is provided.
  • the provided drive power is independent of whether the drive unit operates in a rather favorable or rather unfavorable performance and efficiency range.
  • a fuel-saving operation of the drive unit can not be achieved due to the specifications of the control method and the resulting cooperation with the drive unit and due to the drive unit itself.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to avoid the disadvantages known in the prior art and to propose an apparatus and a method for operating such an engine control concept, in which the engine torque and the engine speed of the drive unit when connecting and during operation of a connected unit in almost optimal operating points can be operated to meet the different performance requirements that result from the connection of aggregates to the drive unit, with the greatest possible fuel-efficient operation.
  • the solution of the problem is therefore to avoid the disadvantage that arises today in the existing methods and devices for controlling drive units for vehicles, in the connection of aggregates, and to develop an inventive engine control concept for a vehicle, wherein the vehicle is a drive unit , preferably an internal combustion engine, and having a drive train operatively connected thereto.
  • the powertrain consists, for example, of a transmission which is arranged between an engine output element of the drive unit and a ground engaging drive device, wherein the driveline comprises a plurality of power consumers, hereinafter referred to as aggregates, and one or more wheels carrying vehicle axles.
  • the vehicle further includes front and rear PTOs drivable by the propulsion unit at a fixed ratio of engine speed, the engine management concept comprising at least one electronic control and command device having a controller operable to respond to an activation request to provide the electronic control and regulating device.

  • the device comprises a control device and a control and regulating device.
  • the control and regulating device responds to the activation request from the control device and, before the energy consuming units are switched on, leads the drive unit into a power range which not only prevents the engine speed from falling, but also has an energy-efficient operating point.
  • characteristic curves for estimating the energy requirement of one or more power consumers are stored in the control and regulating device. After activation of the connection of at least one power consumer, the control and regulating device independently adapts the power value P of the drive unit before the at least one power consumer is switched on. Of the Power value P is selected from the stored characteristic curves, for the estimation of the energy requirement of the at least one power consumer, and the power value P is adjusted after the connection of the at least one connected power consumer.
  • control and regulating device is internally equipped with a programmable electronic control and evaluation unit and an electronic control unit. Upon actuation of the control device, this simultaneously provides an activation request to the electronic control unit and to the programmable control and evaluation unit in such a way that the electronic control unit, before the at least one power consumer, the request of an activation permission to the programmable electronic control and evaluation unit whereupon the programmable electronic control and evaluation unit independently changes the power value P of the drive unit prior to the connection of a power consumer and, after the change, provides an activation enable to the electronic unit.
  • the control and regulation device Before the control and regulation device actually makes a connection of the PTO, for example, via the coupling with the aid of an electromagnetic clutch, the control and regulating device for controlling the drive unit has to use the stored for the respective aggregate aggregate field for use and contained therein Implement operating points II to IV. Before the implementation of the operating points II to IV, the control and regulating device has to determine the current power values P of the first operating point I, which result from the normal driving operation of the tractor or tractor.
  • To determine the current data of the drive unit for the first operating point I accesses the control and regulating device, due to the request from the electronic control unit, on the one hand to various sensors, such as the torque sensor and the engine speed sensor, which are arranged in the vehicle on the drive unit and on the other to a specific, editable file that contains a characteristic field of the connected aggregate, which was determined by an aggregate sensor and stored in a program directory.
  • An editable file contains the characteristic data of a connected aggregate.
  • the files with the corresponding characteristic field and the operating points stored therein can also be obtained via the Internet and stored in the program directory.
  • a first power value P is calculated by the programmable logic controller and evaluation unit, which results in the first operating point I.
  • the calculated operating point I is entered in the characteristic field in an editable file associated with the connected unit, from which the power of the drive unit is regulated by means of the control and evaluation unit via an operating point II stored in the file up to the stored operating point III.
  • the editable file stored in a program directory also contains motor characteristics and the operating points II to IV stored for controlling the drive unit.
  • the operating points II to IV are required for the connection and operation of the connected unit.
  • Each unit that can be connected to the PTO has a characteristic power requirement when connected and used in field operation. This characteristic power requirement is entered as operating point II to IV in such an editable file.
  • An aggregate for example comprising a rear mower, is assigned a file with characteristic operating points in a characteristic field. The same also applies to an aggregate, for example an attachment in the form of a front mower, to which a file is assigned. If both units are in use, ie both PTOs are occupied by a power-consuming unit, there is another file that has characteristic operating points II to IV for the power requirement of two aggregates to be connected.
  • the control and regulating device, or the control and evaluation unit, the drive unit starting from the determined operating point I, with the aid of the regulation of the fuel and air supply, automatically leads to the operating point III via the characteristic operating point II.
  • the operating point III is arranged on the one hand in a power range of the drive unit, which avoids a load-dependent engine speed reduction, after switching on the unit located at the PTO and on the other hand is in an efficient area with relatively low fuel consumption. That is, the optimized operating point III is above the expected torque and the rotational speed requirement of zuzugateden aggregate in an energy-efficient region of the characteristic field, for controlling the drive unit deposited.
  • One of the steps according to the invention therefore consists in raising the power values of the drive unit up to the optimized operating point III, predetermined in the characteristic field of a file, before the power-consuming unit is switched on.
  • the connection of an aggregate can be done via a provided for the PTO clutch.
  • this operating state of the drive unit is controlled by the evaluation of the measurement results of the sensors of the control and evaluation, the programmable logic control and evaluation sends an activation release the electronic control unit.

  • the activation release thus also includes information about which of the two PTOs or whether both PTOs are to be switched on.
  • Another inventive step is that after the connection of the at least one connected power consumer, or aggregate, the programmable logic controller and evaluation unit, the drive unit, starting from the power value P in the operating point III, automatically returns to the power value P in the operating point IV, with a change of butter Schemees or a gain curve, hereinafter referred to as a characteristic, takes place at a lower power range. Further details can be found in the figure description 3 and 4. This feedback from the operating point III to the operating point IV corresponds to the running-in phase of the unit, this feedback being monitored by the sensors controlling the engine control concept.
  • the operating point IV is on the one hand in a power range of the drive unit, which corresponds to the unit in use and avoids a load-dependent engine speed reduction and on the other hand in an efficient area with relatively low fuel consumption.
  • the optimized operating point IV is stored above the expected torque and rotational speed requirement of the unit in operation in an energy-efficient region of the characteristic field for controlling the drive unit. That is, the programmable logic controller and evaluation unit regulates the operating point IV in an energy-efficient power range II, which is always above the power value P required by the unit.
  • the operating point IV is optimized such that the drive unit can keep the engine speed stable and fuel consumption low.
  • the engine control concept according to the invention has the advantage that the drive unit of the tractor or tractor always operates safely in a power range which, on the one hand, is relatively far above the required power range, so that a decrease in the engine speed is ruled out and, on the other hand, enables an energy-efficient mode of operation.
  • the control and regulating device, or the programmable logic controller and evaluation always leads the higher power value P of the operating point III to the operating point IV, the actual, required by the driving and the unit in use power value P, "coming from above” , on.
  • “Coming from above” means that the engine torque and the engine speed of the drive unit, due to the engine control concept, before the connection of an aggregate, is automatically brought to a higher power value P than needed by the aggregate. After connecting the unit, the power value P of the drive unit is then automatically reduced to a power range in which the unit can be operated safely and thus without loss of power.

  • FIG. 4 From the Figure 4 are in a schematic representation of the motor control concept 30 according to the invention underlying operating points I to IV 64, 65, 66, 67, plotted in a diagram 54, can be seen.
  • the values of the operating points 64, 65, 66, 67 from the diagram 54 are used to control the drive unit 4.
  • the diagram 54 contains a characteristic field for this purpose 55 with a horizontal coordinate X, which shows the engine speed n 56 and a vertical coordinate Y, which indicates the motor torque M 57. Between the two coordinates n 56 and M 57 are the different power ranges I to III 58, 59, 60 of the drive unit 4.
  • the three power ranges I to III 58, 59, 60 are represented by the three characteristic curves (gain curves) 61, 62, 63 the drive unit 4 on the one hand limited and on the other hand separated.
  • various operating points I to IV 64, 65, 66, 67 corresponding to a power value P are included.
  • the first power value P is composed of the engine torque M 57 and the engine speed n 56 of the drive unit 4 and corresponds to the first operating point I 64.
  • the engine speed n 56 from the first operating point I 64 was, as from FIG. 3 can be seen, determined by the speed sensor 50 and taken over the data line 51 from the control and evaluation unit 32.
  • the motor torque M 57 from the first operating point I 64 was, as also from the FIG. 3 can be seen, measured by the torque sensor 27 and fed as torque signal 28 via the data line 29 of the control and evaluation unit 32 for further processing and accepted.
  • the determined engine speed n 56 and the motor torque M 57 are used as the starting point for controlling the drive unit 4.
  • This operating point I 64 has a relatively low motor torque M 57 in the first power range I 58.
  • the control and evaluation unit 32 increases the engine speed n 56 in a first step.
  • the engine speed n 56 of the first operating point I 64 is up to the predetermined in the characteristic field 55 engine speed n 56, which represents the second operating point II 65, changed.
  • the second operating point II 65 is thus achieved via the control of the drive unit 4 by the control and evaluation unit 32. Since the power P of the drive unit 4, or the motor torque M 57, but has not yet been increased, a connection of an energy consumer would now have a load-dependent "stalling" of the drive unit result. Therefore, it is necessary that the motor torque M 57 of the drive unit 4 is increased by the control and evaluation unit 32.
  • the motor torque M 57 is increased in the drive unit 4.
  • the motor torque increase is again effected by driving the drive unit 4 with the aid of the control and evaluation unit 32.
  • the control and evaluation unit 32 contains a power value P.
  • Power value P is stored in the characteristic field 55 of a file 53. This file 53 is responsible for the arranged at the rear end 13 of the tractor 2 mower 3.
  • the increase in the engine torque M 57 is necessary to the expected additional power requirements, the connection at the connection 72, 73 of the PTO shaft 14, 19 unit , 23 is required to already stock.
  • the increase in the engine torque 57 is achieved in that the operating point II 65 of the drive unit 4 from the power range I 58 in the power range III 60, so over two characteristics (gain curves) I, II 61, 62 away, is shifted. For this it is necessary to increase the power P of the motor. Since the physical quantity power P is proportional to the physical quantity motor torque M, the total torque to be applied by the drive unit 4 can also be set here instead of the total power requirement. Based on the, from the operating point III 66 predetermined total power demand or of the total applied motor torque M 57, the power P of the drive unit 4 is increased according to the responsible program step in the control and evaluation unit 32. The engine speed n 56 is kept constant, only the motor torque M 57 is increased.
  • At least one of the motor output element 15, 20 arranged torque sensors 27 is queried via the data line 29.
  • the measured torque signal 28 is transmitted to the control and evaluation unit 32 for evaluation.
  • the control and evaluation unit 32 controls, via a data line 48, in a manner known per se, a fuel and an air supply 49 of the drive unit 4, insofar as the drive unit 4 is an internal combustion engine 5. If the power value P determined by the torque sensor 27 coincides with the predetermined power value P from the operating point III 66, the electronic control unit 33 receives the activation release 47 for connecting the PTO shafts 14, 19. If the power value P has not yet been reached or exceeded , the control and evaluation unit 32 regulates the fuel and the air supply 49 until the power value P determined by the torque sensor 27 coincides with the power value P stored in the characteristic field 55.
  • the connected unit 3, 23 is put into operation.
  • the predetermined power value P of the operating point III 66 of the drive unit 4 is now automatically shifted to the operating point IV 67,.
  • the shift again takes over the control and evaluation unit 32, according to the stored specifications in the relevant for the connected unit 3, 23 file 53.
  • the file 53 contains a stored in the characteristic field 55 Power value P in the operating point IV 67.
  • the operating point IV 67 is located in the power range II 59 between the characteristic I (gain curve I) 61 and the characteristic II (gain curve II) 62.
  • the operating point IV 67 is thus in a lower power range II 59 than that Operating point III 66.
  • the operating point IV 67 corresponds to the power P which the drive unit 4 needs to drive and operate the units 3, 23 during field operation in order to reliably determine a speed-stable drive unit 4.
  • the motor control concept 30 impressively shows, as can be seen from the diagram 54, that the drive unit 4 always operates in a safe power range I, II, II 58, 59, 60, the operating points I to IV 64, 65, 66, 67 always allow an energy-efficient operation of the drive unit 4 and thus reduce fuel consumption.
