Abstract

The fuel injection control method includes idling switch-off in which the number of cylinders to be switched off for each revolution of the crankshaft is specified. The injection valves serving the cylinders are switched off alternately. After a given number of outlets, operation is automatically switched to the injection valve of another cylinder which then remains switched off until the next cylinder shift onwards.

Description

" Procédé d'injection de carburant dans un moteur à com
bustion interne
La présente invention concerne un procédé d'injection de carburant, à savoir pour une coupure en poussée, procédé selon lequel, en fonction des conditions de charge des cylindres d'un moteur à combustion interne, on alimente ceux-ci séquentiellement en carburant par l'intermédiaire d'injecteurs, en générant des signaux d'ouverture des injecteurs.
"Method of injecting fuel into a com engine
internal bustion
The present invention relates to a fuel injection method, namely for a thrust cut-off, method according to which, depending on the load conditions of the cylinders of an internal combustion engine, the latter are sequentially supplied with fuel by the by injectors, by generating injector opening signals.

Selon DE-OS 34 18 387, on -connai4t un procédé d'injection de carburant selon lequel on fournit séquentiellement du carburant aux différents cylindres du moteur. I1 estlen outre, connu dans le cadre de la réduction de la pollution et de l'économie de carburant, d'effectuer une coupure en poussée de manière que, pour certains états de charge par exemple lorsqu'on coupe l'accélération ou dans les descentes, les cylindres du moteur ne reçoivent pas de carburant. According to DE-OS 34 18 387, a fuel injection process is known, according to which fuel is supplied sequentially to the different cylinders of the engine. It is also known, in the context of reducing pollution and saving fuel, to perform a thrust cut-off so that, for certain load states, for example when the acceleration is cut or in the descents, the engine cylinders do not receive fuel.

Le procédé selon l'invention pour injecter du carburant offre l'avantage qu'en fonction de la demande, on coupe un nombre prédéterminé de cylindres. The method according to the invention for injecting fuel has the advantage that, depending on demand, a predetermined number of cylinders is cut.

Suivant l'état de charge, on coupe les inJecteurs d'au moins un cylindre jusqu'à atteindre l'ensemble des cylindres.Depending on the state of charge, the injectors of at least one cylinder are cut until all of the cylinders are reached.

Selon l'invention, on prédétermine le nombre de cylindres à mettre hors service et, en parti culier pour chaque fois deux rotations du vilebrequin. According to the invention, the number of cylinders to be taken out of service is predetermined and, in particular for each time two rotations of the crankshaft.

Cette détermination se fait en fonction de l'état de charge du moteur à combustion interne pour éviter des variations brutales en cours de fonctionnement. Les injecteurs sont coupés à tour de rôle de manière alternée pour qu'aucun cylindre ne reste trop longtemps hors service. Pour éviter que ce soient toujours les mêmes injecteurs qui soient mis en service ou coupés, il est prévu un élément de rupture de symétrie dans le cadre de la présente invention. Après un nombre prédéterminé de coupures ou de mises hors service! on passe automatiquement sur l'injecteur d'un autre cylindre. Dans ces conditions, ce n'est pas toujours le même cylindre ou le même injecteur qui est coupé, mais grâce à la commutation selon l'invention, on met hors service cycliquement les cylindres.De ce fait, on évite de manière ex trêmement simple des conditions de température défavorables dans le moteur à combustion interne.This determination is made as a function of the state of charge of the internal combustion engine to avoid sudden variations during operation. The injectors are switched off alternately so that no cylinder remains out of service for too long. To avoid that the same injectors are always put into service or cut, a symmetry breaking element is provided in the context of the present invention. After a predetermined number of cuts or deactivation! we automatically switch to the injector of another cylinder. Under these conditions, it is not always the same cylinder or the same injector which is cut, but thanks to the switching according to the invention, the cylinders are put out of service cyclically. As a result, it is avoided in an extremely simple way unfavorable temperature conditions in the internal combustion engine.

La présente invention sera décrite de manière plus détaillée à l'aide des dessins annexés, dans lesquels - la figure 1 montre un chronogramme. The present invention will be described in more detail with the aid of the accompanying drawings, in which - Figure 1 shows a timing diagram.

- la figure 2 est un tableau d'états. - Figure 2 is a table of states.

La figure 1 montre le principe du profil des signaux El ... E4 qui sont appliqués aux différents injecteurs -d'un moteur à combustion interne a quatre cylindres. Le point de départ est que, dans la première phase, les cylindres reçoivent le carburant de manière séquentielle habituelle et les signaux El ... E4 associés aux différents injecteurs ouvrent ceux-ci successivement. La durée d'injection, l'instant de l'injection etc sont déterminés en fonction des états de charge d'une manière non explicitée ici
Le début de la seconde phase est défini par l'arrivée d'un signal S1. Ce signal S1 indique que, pour chaque fois deux rotations du vilebrequin, il faut couper un injecteur. Ce signal est généré par le circuit électronique-maitre situé au niveau au-dessus.
FIG. 1 shows the principle of the profile of the signals El ... E4 which are applied to the different injectors - of an internal combustion engine with four cylinders. The starting point is that, in the first phase, the cylinders receive the fuel in the usual sequential manner and the signals El ... E4 associated with the different injectors open these successively. The injection duration, the instant of the injection, etc. are determined according to the states of charge in a manner not explained here.
The start of the second phase is defined by the arrival of a signal S1. This signal S1 indicates that, for each two rotations of the crankshaft, an injector must be cut. This signal is generated by the electronic master circuit located at the level above.

Ce circuit-maitre permet de prédéterminer d'autres signaux pour le moteur à combustion interne en fonction des demandes de charge, signaux qui déterminent le nombre de cylindres qu'il faut mettre hors service à chaque fois.This master circuit makes it possible to predetermine other signals for the internal combustion engine according to the load requests, signals which determine the number of cylinders which must be taken out of service each time.

Aussi longtemps que l'ensemble des injecteurs n'est pas coupé, les injecteurs sont commutés en alternance afin qu'aucun des cylindres ne reste trop longtemps hors ser v i c e. As long as all of the injectors are not shut off, the injectors are switched alternately so that none of the cylinders remains out of service for too long.

Du fait du signal S1, au cours de la seconde phase, à l'instant tl, l'injecteur E2 n'est pas ouvert, si bien que le second cylindre du moteur à combustion interne reste hors service. Cette situation reste conservée au moins pour la rotation suivante du vilebrequin. Selon l'invention, après un certain nombre
N de telles mises hors service, on passe sur l'injecteur d'un autre cylindre.
Due to the signal S1, during the second phase, at time t1, the injector E2 is not opened, so that the second cylinder of the internal combustion engine remains out of service. This situation remains at least for the next rotation of the crankshaft. According to the invention, after a certain number
No such decommissioning, we pass on the injector of another cylinder.

La partie droite du schéma montre que, suivant l'injection séquentielle, l'injecteur E2 s'ouvre alors que pendant la durée tl, l'injecteur E3 reste fermé. On éviter ainsi que les mêmes cylindres ne soient toujours mis hors service. Le passage du troisième cylindre au quatrième cylindre, etc, se fait de nouveau après un nombre prédéterminé N de telles mises hors service des moyens d'injection. The right-hand part of the diagram shows that, according to the sequential injection, the injector E2 opens while for the duration tl, the injector E3 remains closed. This prevents the same cylinders from always being taken out of service. The transition from the third cylinder to the fourth cylinder, etc., takes place again after a predetermined number N of such deactivation of the injection means.

A la place du signal S1 représenté dans le chronogramme pour couper chaque fois un seul cylindre, le circuit-maitre, superposé au circuit-esclave peut fournir d'autres signaux non représentés pour prédéterminer le nombre de cylindres à mettre hors service. In place of the signal S1 represented in the timing diagram for cutting a single cylinder each time, the master circuit, superimposed on the slave circuit can supply other signals, not shown, to predetermine the number of cylinders to be put out of service.

Cette détèrmination préalable s'applique chaque fois pour deux rotations du vilebrequin. Dans le cas également de ces signaux, comme pour les explications données ci-dessus, on a un passage automatique sur les cylindres suivants après N mises hors service.This preliminary determination applies each time for two rotations of the crankshaft. In the case also of these signals, as for the explanations given above, there is an automatic passage on the following cylinders after N put out of service.

La transmission des signaux au circuit-esclave se fait de préférencesde manière parallèle par trois lignes, le nombre de bits occupés déterminant le nombre de cylindres à couper La table d'états représentée à la figure 2 montre à titre d'exemple cette situation. Les références P1, P2, P3 correspondent aux entrées du circuit-esclave ; ces entrées sont reliées au circuitmartre par les trois lignes mentionnées ci-dessus. A la première ligne du tableau d'états, les trois entrées ne reçoivent aucun signal. Cela signifie que, selon la première phase explicitée à propos de la figure 1, aucun des cylindres n'est mis hors service et que tous les injecteurs sont commandés séquentiellement. Selon la seconde ligne de la table d'états, l'entrée P1 reçoit un signal. The transmission of signals to the slave circuit is preferably done in parallel by three lines, the number of occupied bits determining the number of cylinders to be cut. The state table shown in FIG. 2 shows this situation by way of example. References P1, P2, P3 correspond to the inputs of the slave circuit; these inputs are linked to the circuitmartre by the three lines mentioned above. On the first line of the state table, the three inputs receive no signal. This means that, according to the first phase explained in connection with FIG. 1, none of the cylinders is taken out of service and that all of the injectors are controlled sequentially. According to the second line of the state table, the input P1 receives a signal.

On se trouve alors dans la situation expliquée en ela- tion avec la figure 1 pour la seconde phase. Selon les signaux appliqués aux entrées P1, P2, P3, on indique le nombre de cylindres à mettre hors service jusqu'à ce que l'on atteigne le nombre total de tous les cylindres. We are then in the situation explained in elation with Figure 1 for the second phase. According to the signals applied to the inputs P1, P2, P3, the number of cylinders to be deactivated is indicated until the total number of all cylinders is reached.
