Definitions
- the invention relates to an injection system for injecting fluid into an exhaust tract.
- the particulate filter acts as a soot filter and, due to its filtering effect, reduces particulate matter pollution.
- the regeneration is carried out by increasing the temperature, for example, to about 600 degrees Celsius, whereby the particles, especially soot particles, burn. Since this is not possible in all operating states by means of engine measures, the temperature increase is achieved by means of fuel, for example diesel, which is injected into the exhaust tract via an injection valve.
- the injected fuel reaches an oxidation catalyst, which is arranged in front of the particle filter.
- the reaching into the oxidation catalyst fuel is oxidized or burned and leads to an exhaust gas temperature increase, so that correspondingly hot exhaust gases reach the downstream particle filter and cause the regeneration there.
- An injection system has at least two modules and at least one pressure compensation volume.
- the pressure compensation volume is designed to supply fluid to at least one of the modules and connects at least two of the modules hydraulically with each other.
- Each of the modules has an inlet for receiving fluid and at least one injection unit configured to inject fluid into the exhaust tract.
- the injection system according to the invention is easily adaptable to multi-flow exhaust systems and different quantity requirements of the fluid to be injected.
- the injection system according to the invention is easily adaptable to multi-flow exhaust systems and different quantity requirements of the fluid to be injected.
- by adding additional modules arbitrarily large amounts of fluid can be injected.
- the pressure equalization volume provided according to the invention dampens the transmission of pressure oscillations between the individual modules. This ensures that essentially constant pressure conditions are present on each module. This allows a precise injection of a given amount of fluid.
- At least one metering unit is provided for metering the fluid.
- the desired injection quantity can be set exactly.
- the metering unit may have a shut-off valve for switching off the fluid supply and a metering valve for metering the fluid.
- an output of the shut-off valve is hydraulically connected to an input of the metering valve.
- the inlets of the modules are hydraulically connected to a common fluid supply.
- the common fluid supply is at least partially designed as a pressure equalization volume.
- An at least partially designed as a pressure compensation volume fluid supply provides the necessary pressure decoupling between the modules.
- a correspondingly large volume can be designed, for example, like a rail used in common-rail technology, so that it is possible to fall back on the experience known from common-rail technology.
- the inlet of the second module via the pressure equalization volume is hydraulically connected to the output of the shut-off valve of the first module.
- the fluid supply of the entire injection system can be switched off by the shut-off valve of the first module. This eliminates the need for a shut-off valve in the additional modules to reduce the cost of these modules.
- the inlet of a third module is hydraulically connected to the pressure equalization volume, so that the pressure equalization volume is used in common for the second, third and possibly further modules and regardless of the number of modules used only a single pressure compensation volume is provided.
- the cost of the injection system can be kept low.
- the inlet of the third module via a second pressure equalization volume is hydraulically connected to the output of the shut-off valve of the second module. Because in this embodiment each module is coupled in each case via its own pressure compensation volume with a preceding module, the individual pressure compensation volume can be smaller than a common pressure compensation volume. By using several small pressure compensation volumes, the injection system can be flexibly adapted to the available space and the installation of the injection system is simplified.
- At least one metering device is provided for metering the fluid.
- the pressure compensation volume can be filled by the metering device with fluid.
- the common pressure compensation volume can be filled with fluid by a metering device.
- a valve in particular a check valve, is arranged between the pressure compensation volume and each module.
- the individual modules are hydraulically decoupled from each other. If the modules are hydraulically decoupled from one another, the pressure compensation volume can be made smaller and the reliability of the injection system is improved, since harmful interactions between the individual modules are reliably prevented.
- a second metering device which supplies a second pressure compensation volume with fluid, is hydraulically connected to the first metering device via a third pressure compensation volume.
- An injection system with such a structure can be expanded as desired, in particular, the injection system can be constructed so that even large amounts of fluid can be injected into multiple exhaust tracts.
- the injection units for injecting fluid are formed upstream of a catalyst disposed in the exhaust tract. This will cause catalytic combustion of the injected fluid and thus achieves a particularly effective regeneration of the filter arranged in the exhaust tract.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Einspritzsystem zum Einspritzen von Fluid in einen Abgastrakt.The invention relates to an injection system for injecting fluid into an exhaust tract.
Es ist bekannt, in einem Abgassystem eines Verbrennungsmotors eines Fahrzeugs einen Partikelfilter zu installieren. Handelt es sich bei dem Verbrennungsmotor beispielsweise um einen Dieselmotor, so wirkt der Partikelfilter beispielsweise als Rußfilter und senkt aufgrund seiner Filterwirkung die Feinstaubbelastung. Um zu verhindern, dass sich nach einer bestimmten Einsatzdauer der Filter zusetzt, ist es erforderlich, den Filter von Zeit zu Zeit zu regenerieren. Die Regeneration erfolgt durch Temperaturerhöhung beispielsweise auf rund 600 Grad Celsius, wodurch die Partikel, insbesondere Rußpartikel, verbrennen. Da dies nicht in allen Betriebszuständen durch motorische Maßnahmen möglich ist, wird die Temperaturerhöhung durch Kraftstoff, zum Beispiel Diesel, erzielt, der über ein Einspritzventil in den Abgastrakt eingespritzt wird. Der eingespritzte Kraftstoff gelangt zu einem Oxidationskatalysator, der vor dem Partikelfilter angeordnet ist. Der in den Oxidationskatalysator gelangende Kraftstoff wird oxidiert bzw. verbrannt und führt zu einer Abgastemperaturerhöhung, so dass entsprechend heiße Abgase zum nachgeschalteten Partikelfilter gelangen und dort die Regeneration bewirken.It is known to install a particulate filter in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine of a vehicle. If the internal combustion engine is, for example, a diesel engine, the particulate filter, for example, acts as a soot filter and, due to its filtering effect, reduces particulate matter pollution. In order to prevent the filter from becoming clogged after a certain period of use, it is necessary to regenerate the filter from time to time. The regeneration is carried out by increasing the temperature, for example, to about 600 degrees Celsius, whereby the particles, especially soot particles, burn. Since this is not possible in all operating states by means of engine measures, the temperature increase is achieved by means of fuel, for example diesel, which is injected into the exhaust tract via an injection valve. The injected fuel reaches an oxidation catalyst, which is arranged in front of the particle filter. The reaching into the oxidation catalyst fuel is oxidized or burned and leads to an exhaust gas temperature increase, so that correspondingly hot exhaust gases reach the downstream particle filter and cause the regeneration there.
Verfahren und Vorrichtungen zur Regeneration eines Partikelfilters werden z.B. in
Die bisher bekannten Systeme zum Einspritzen von Fluid in einen Abgastrakt sind nur für einen einzigen Abgastrakt einsetzbar und lassen keine beliebige Steigerung der eingespritzten Fluidmenge zu.The previously known systems for injecting fluid into an exhaust tract can only be used for a single exhaust tract and do not permit any increase in the amount of fluid injected.
Eine Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine verbessertes System zum Einspritzen eines Fluids in einen Abgastrakt bereitzustellen, das einfach an Abgas-Systeme mit mehreren Abgassträngen anpassbar ist und das Einspritzen beliebig großer Fluidmengen ermöglicht.It is an object of the invention to provide an improved system for injecting a fluid into an exhaust tract that is easily adaptable to exhaust systems having multiple exhaust trains and allows for the injection of arbitrarily large quantities of fluid.
Die Aufgabe wird durch ein Einspritzsystem nach den unabhängigen Patentansprüchen gelöst. Die abhängigen Patentansprüche beschreiben vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen des erfindungsgemäßen Einspritzsystems nach dem unabhängigen Patentanspruch 1.The object is achieved by an injection system according to the independent patent claims. The dependent claims describe advantageous embodiments of the injection system according to the invention according to the independent claim. 1
Ein erfindungsgemäßes Einspritzsystem hat wenigstens zwei Module und wenigstens ein Druckausgleichsvolumen. Das Druckausgleichsvolumen ist zum Zuführen von Fluid zu wenigstens einem der Module ausgebildet und verbindet wenigstens zwei der Module hydraulisch miteinander. Jedes der Module hat einen Zulauf zur Aufnahme von Fluid und wenigstens eine Einspritzeinheit, die zum Einspritzen von Fluid in den Abgastrakt ausgebildet ist.An injection system according to the invention has at least two modules and at least one pressure compensation volume. The pressure compensation volume is designed to supply fluid to at least one of the modules and connects at least two of the modules hydraulically with each other. Each of the modules has an inlet for receiving fluid and at least one injection unit configured to inject fluid into the exhaust tract.
Durch den modularen Aufbau ist das erfindungsgemäße Einspritzsystem einfach an mehrflutige Abgassysteme und unterschiedliche Mengenanforderungen des einzuspritzenden Fluids anpassbar. Insbesondere sind durch das Hinzufügen zusätzlicher Module beliebig große Fluidmengen einspritzbar.Due to the modular structure, the injection system according to the invention is easily adaptable to multi-flow exhaust systems and different quantity requirements of the fluid to be injected. In particular, by adding additional modules arbitrarily large amounts of fluid can be injected.
Das erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene Druckausgleichsvolumen dämpft die Übertragung von Druckschwingungen zwischen den einzelnen Modulen. So ist sichergestellt, dass an jedem Modul im Wesentlichen konstante Druckbedingungen vorliegen. Dies ermöglicht ein exaktes Einspritzen einer vorgegebenen Fluidmenge.The pressure equalization volume provided according to the invention dampens the transmission of pressure oscillations between the individual modules. This ensures that essentially constant pressure conditions are present on each module. This allows a precise injection of a given amount of fluid.
Dabei ist zumindest eine Dosiereinheit zum Dosieren des Fluids vorgesehen. Durch eine solche Dosiereinheit kann die gewünschte Einspritzmenge exakt festgelegt werden.In this case, at least one metering unit is provided for metering the fluid. By such a metering unit, the desired injection quantity can be set exactly.
Dabei kann die Dosiereinheit ein Abschaltventil zum Abschalten der Fluidzufuhr und ein Dosierventil zum Dosieren des Fluids aufweisen. Dabei ist ein Ausgang des Abschaltventils hydraulisch mit einem Eingang des Dosierventils verbunden. Ein solcher Aufbau einer Dosiereinheit mit einem Abschaltventil und einem Dosierventil, die in Reihe hintereinander angeordnet sind, ermöglicht einerseits ein zuverlässiges Abschalten der Fluidzufuhr und andererseits eine genaue Dosierung der gewünschten Einspritzmenge. Dadurch, dass die Fluidzufuhr durch das Abschaltventil unabhängig von dem Dosierventil abschaltbar ist, kann auch bei einer Fehlfunktion des Dosierventils ein unkontrolliertes Austreten von Fluid zuverlässig verhindert werden. Die Sicherheit des Einspritzsystems wird so erhöht.In this case, the metering unit may have a shut-off valve for switching off the fluid supply and a metering valve for metering the fluid. In this case, an output of the shut-off valve is hydraulically connected to an input of the metering valve. Such a construction of a metering unit with a shut-off valve and a metering valve, which are arranged in series one behind the other, enables on the one hand a reliable shutdown of the fluid supply and on the other hand a precise metering of the desired injection quantity. Because the fluid supply through the shut-off valve can be switched off independently of the metering valve, uncontrolled leakage of fluid can be reliably prevented even in the event of a malfunction of the metering valve. The safety of the injection system is increased.
In einer Anordnung, die nicht Teil der Erfindung ist, sind die Zuläufe der Module hydraulisch mit einer gemeinsamen Fluidzufuhr verbunden. Dabei ist die gemeinsame Fluidzufuhr wenigstens teilweise als Druckausgleichsvolumen ausgebildet. Eine wenigstens teilweise als Druckausgleichsvolumen ausgebildete Fluidzufuhr sorgt für die notwendige Druckentkopplung zwischen den Modulen. Ein entsprechend großes Volumen kann beispielsweise wie ein in der Common-Rail-Technik eingesetztes Rail ausgebildet sein, so dass auf die aus der Common-Rail-Technik bekannten Erfahrungen zurückgegriffen werden kann.In an arrangement which is not part of the invention, the inlets of the modules are hydraulically connected to a common fluid supply. The common fluid supply is at least partially designed as a pressure equalization volume. An at least partially designed as a pressure compensation volume fluid supply provides the necessary pressure decoupling between the modules. A correspondingly large volume can be designed, for example, like a rail used in common-rail technology, so that it is possible to fall back on the experience known from common-rail technology.
In einer Ausführungsform ist der Zulauf des zweiten Moduls über das Druckausgleichsvolumen hydraulisch mit dem Ausgang des Abschaltventils des ersten Moduls verbunden. In dieser Ausführungsform ist die Fluidzufuhr des gesamten Einspritzsystems durch das Abschaltventil des ersten Moduls abschaltbar. Dadurch kann in den zusätzlichen Modulen auf ein Abschaltventil verzichtet werden, um die Kosten dieser Module zu senken.In one embodiment, the inlet of the second module via the pressure equalization volume is hydraulically connected to the output of the shut-off valve of the first module. In this embodiment, the fluid supply of the entire injection system can be switched off by the shut-off valve of the first module. This eliminates the need for a shut-off valve in the additional modules to reduce the cost of these modules.
In einer Variante dieser Ausführungsform ist der Zulauf eines dritten Moduls hydraulisch mit dem Druckausgleichsvolumen verbunden, sodass das Druckausgleichsvolumen gemeinsam für das zweite, dritte und ggf. für weitere Module verwendet wird und unabhängig von der Anzahl der verwendeten Module nur ein einziges Druckausgleichsvolumen vorgesehen ist. Durch die Verwendung nur eines einzigen Druckausgleichsvolumens können die Kosten des Einspritzsystems gering gehalten werden.In a variant of this embodiment, the inlet of a third module is hydraulically connected to the pressure equalization volume, so that the pressure equalization volume is used in common for the second, third and possibly further modules and regardless of the number of modules used only a single pressure compensation volume is provided. By using only a single pressure compensation volume, the cost of the injection system can be kept low.
In einer alternativen Ausführungsform ist der Zulauf des dritten Moduls über ein zweites Druckausgleichsvolumen hydraulisch mit dem Ausgang des Abschaltventils des zweiten Moduls verbunden. Dadurch, dass in dieser Ausführungsform jedes Modul jeweils über ein eigenes Druckausgleichsvolumen mit einem vorangehenden Modul gekoppelt ist, können die einzelnen Druckausgleichsvolumen kleiner als ein gemeinsames Druckausgleichsvolumen ausgebildet sein. Durch die Verwendung mehrerer kleiner Druckausgleichsvolumen kann das Einspritzsystem flexibel an den zur Verfügung stehenden Raum angepasst werden und die Installation des Einspritzsystems wird vereinfacht.In an alternative embodiment, the inlet of the third module via a second pressure equalization volume is hydraulically connected to the output of the shut-off valve of the second module. Because in this embodiment each module is coupled in each case via its own pressure compensation volume with a preceding module, the individual pressure compensation volume can be smaller than a common pressure compensation volume. By using several small pressure compensation volumes, the injection system can be flexibly adapted to the available space and the installation of the injection system is simplified.
In einer Ausführungsform ist wenigstens eine Dosiereinrichtung zum Dosieren des Fluids vorgesehen. Dabei ist das Druckausgleichsvolumen durch die Dosiereinrichtung mit Fluid befüllbar. In einem Einspritzsystem, in dem das gemeinsame Druckausgleichsvolumen durch eine Dosiereinrichtung mit Fluid befüllbar ist, ist nur eine einzige Dosiereinrichtung erforderlich. Dadurch können die Kosten des Einspritzsystems weiter verringert werden.In one embodiment, at least one metering device is provided for metering the fluid. In this case, the pressure compensation volume can be filled by the metering device with fluid. In an injection system in which the common pressure compensation volume can be filled with fluid by a metering device, only a single metering device is required. As a result, the cost of the injection system can be further reduced.
In einer Ausführungsform ist zwischen dem Druckausgleichsvolumen und jedem Modul ein Ventil, insbesondere ein Rückschlagventil angeordnet. Durch ein solches Ventil werden die einzelnen Module hydraulisch voneinander entkoppelt. Sind die Module hydraulisch voneinander entkoppelt, kann das Druckausgleichsvolumen kleiner ausgebildet sein und die Betriebssicherheit des Einspritzsystems wird verbessert, da schädliche Wechselwirkungen zwischen den einzelnen Modulen zuverlässig verhindert werden.In one embodiment, a valve, in particular a check valve, is arranged between the pressure compensation volume and each module. By means of such a valve, the individual modules are hydraulically decoupled from each other. If the modules are hydraulically decoupled from one another, the pressure compensation volume can be made smaller and the reliability of the injection system is improved, since harmful interactions between the individual modules are reliably prevented.
In einer weiteren Ausführungsform ist eine zweite Dosiereinrichtung, die ein zweites Druckausgleichsvolumen mit Fluid versorgt, über ein drittes Druckausgleichsvolumen hydraulisch mit der ersten Dosiereinrichtung verbunden. Ein Einspritzsystem mit einem solchen Aufbau ist beliebig erweiterbar, insbesondere kann das Einspritzsystem so aufgebaut werden, dass auch große Fluidmengen in mehrere Abgastrakte einspritzbar sind.In a further embodiment, a second metering device, which supplies a second pressure compensation volume with fluid, is hydraulically connected to the first metering device via a third pressure compensation volume. An injection system with such a structure can be expanded as desired, in particular, the injection system can be constructed so that even large amounts of fluid can be injected into multiple exhaust tracts.
In einer Ausführungsform sind die Einspritzeinheiten zum Einspritzen von Fluid stromaufwärts eines in dem Abgastrakt angeordneten Katalysators ausgebildet. Dadurch wird eine katalytische Verbrennung des eingespritzten Fluids und somit eine besonders effektive Regeneration des in dem Abgastrakt angeordneten Filters erreicht.In one embodiment, the injection units for injecting fluid are formed upstream of a catalyst disposed in the exhaust tract. This will cause catalytic combustion of the injected fluid and thus achieves a particularly effective regeneration of the filter arranged in the exhaust tract.
Die Erfindung wird im Folgenden anhand der in den beigefügten Figuren gezeigten Systeme zum Einspritzen von fluidem Kraftstoff in einen Abgastrakt näher erläutert. Die Erfindung ist aber auch auf Systeme zum Einspritzen anderer Fluide, wie z.B. Harnstoff, anwendbar.The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to the systems shown in the accompanying figures for injecting fluid fuel into an exhaust gas tract. However, the invention is also applicable to systems for injecting other fluids, e.g. Urea, applicable.
Das Einspritzventil 42 ist an einem ebenfalls nicht gezeigten Abgastrakt stromaufwärts eines Katalysators angeordnet, im Kraftstoff in den Abgastrakt einzuspritzen. Der eingespritzte Kraftstoff wird in dem Katalysator katalytisch verbrannt. Dadurch erhöht sich die Temperatur um Abgastrakt, so dass Ablagerungen, die sich in einem stromabwärts des Katalysators angeordneten Partikelfilter abgelagert haben, verbrannt werden und der Filter regeneriert wird.The
An die Kraftstoffleitung 19 ist zwischen dem Ausgang des Abschaltventils 12 und dem ersten Drucksensor 16 der ersten Dosiereinheit 10 hydraulisch ein erstes Druckausgleichsvolumen 44 angeschlossen, das bei geöffnetem Abschaltventil 12 mit Kraftstoff aus der Kraftstoffzuleitung 8 gefüllt wird. Ein Ausgang des ersten Druckausgleichsvolumens 44 ist mit dem Eingang einer Dosiereinheit 20 eines zweiten Moduls, das die zweite Dosiereinheit 20 und eine zweite Einspritzeinheit 50 aufweist, verbunden. Somit wird bei geöffnetem Abschaltventil 12 der ersten Dosiereinheit 10 die Dosiereinheit 20 des zweiten Moduls über das erste Druckausgleichsvolumen 44 mit Kraftstoff aus der Kraftstoffzufuhr 8 versorgt.To the
Die zweite Dosiereinheit 20 versorgt die zugehörige zweite Einspritzeinheit 50 mit einer dosierten Kraftstoffmenge. Das zweite Modul mit der zweiten Dosiereinheit 20 und der zweite Einspritzeinheit 50 ist baugleich mit dem ersten Modul mit der ersten Dosiereinheit 10 und der ersten Einspritzeinheit 40. Daher wird auf eine erneute ausführliche Beschreibung des Aufbaus verzichtet.The
Zwischen dem Abschaltventil 22 und dem ersten Drucksensor 26 der Dosiereinheit 20 des zweiten Moduls ist an eine Kraftstoffleitung 29 ein zweites Druckausgleichsvolumen 54 angeschlossen, das bei geöffnetem Abschaltventil 22 eine Dosiereinheit 30 eines dritten Moduls mit Kraftstoff versorgt. Das dritte Modul weist eine dritte Einspritzeinheit 60 auf, die von der Dosiereinheit 30 des dritten Moduls mit Kraftstoff versorgt wird.Between the shut-off

Dadurch, dass jeweils baugleiche Module, welche die Dosiereinheiten 10, 20, 30 und die Einspritzeinheiten 40, 50, 60 umfassen, und Druckausgleichsvolumen 44, 54 verwendet werden, ist ein erfindungsgemäßes Einspritzsystem besonders einfach, flexibel und kostengünstig herstellbar. Es müssen nur drei verschiedene Bauelemente hergestellt werden, aus denen beliebig großen Einspritzsysteme zusammensetzbar sind. Dadurch, dass für den Anschluss jeder Dosiereinheit 10, 20, 30 jeweils ein separates Druckausgleichsvolumen 44, 54 verwendet wird, können die einzelnen Druckausgleichsvolumen 44, 54 eine geringe Größe haben und sind einfach und flexibel montierbar.By virtue of the fact that identical modules, which comprise the
Die in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel verwendeten Dosiereinheiten 10, 20, 30 und Einspritzeinheiten 40, 50, 60 sind baugleich mit den im ersten Ausführungsbeispiel verwendeten Einheiten und werden daher nicht erneut beschrieben.The

Dosiereinheiten 21, 31, die kein Abschaltventil aufweisen, werden als "SLAVE"-Dosiereinheiten 21, 31 bezeichnet und sind kostengünstiger herstellbar als eine so genannte "MASTER"-Dosiereinheit 10, die zusätzlich ein Abschaltventil 12 und einen ersten Drucksensor 16 zwischen dem Abschaltventil 12 und dem Dosierventil 14 aufweist. Die Kraftstoffzufuhr ist in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel für das gesamte Einspritzsystem durch Schließen des Abschaltventils 12 in der ersten, "MASTER"-Dosiereinheit 10 abschaltbar.
In einer alternativen, nicht gezeigten Anordnung sind die Dosiereinheiten als "SLAVE"-Dosiereinheiten ohne Abschaltventil ausgebildet und ein zentrales Abschaltventil ist in der nicht gezeigten Zuleitung zur gemeinsamen Kraftstoffzufuhr 54 ausgebildet.In an alternative arrangement, not shown, the metering units are designed as "SLAVE" metering units without shut-off valve, and a central shut-off valve is formed in the supply line (not shown) for

Insgesamt vier Einspritzeinheiten 40, 50, 60, 70 sind an den Abgassträngen 82, 84 angeordnet, um den von der Dosiereinheit 10 dosierten Kraftstoff stromaufwärts der Oxidationskatalysatoren 74 in den jeweiligen Abgastrakt 82, 84 einzuspritzen. Der eingespritzte Kraftstoff wird in den Oxidationskatalysatoren 74 katalytisch verbrannt. Durch die Verbrennung wird die Temperatur in den Abgassträngen 82, 84 soweit erhöht, dass Ruß, der sich in den Partikelfiltern 76 abgelagert hat, verbrennt und die Partikelfilter 76 regeneriert werden.A total of four

Das Rückschlagventil 64, 65, 66, 67 verhindert einen Rückfluss von Kraftstoff aus den Einspritzeinheiten 40, 50, 60, 70 in das Druckausgleichsvolumen 58.
