Description
本発明は、例えば内燃機関に使用される電磁式燃料噴射弁の駆動装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a drive device for an electromagnetic fuel injection valve used in, for example, an internal combustion engine.
通常閉弁型の電磁式燃料噴射弁では、閉弁方向に力を発生される付勢手段を有し、駆動部はコイルとコアと可動子で構成され、コイルに電流を供給することによって、コアと可動子との間に吸引力が発生し、吸引力が閉弁方向の力を超えた時点で弁体が弁座から離脱し開弁を開始する。続いてコイルへの電流供給を停止することによって、コアと可動子間に発生していた吸引力が下がり、閉弁方向の力よりも小さくなった時点で閉弁を開始する。 The normally closed electromagnetic fuel injection valve has a biasing means that generates a force in the valve closing direction, and the drive unit is composed of a coil, a core, and a mover, and by supplying a current to the coil, A suction force is generated between the core and the mover. When the suction force exceeds a force in the valve closing direction, the valve body is detached from the valve seat and starts to open. Subsequently, when the current supply to the coil is stopped, the attraction force generated between the core and the mover decreases, and the valve closing is started when the force becomes smaller than the force in the valve closing direction.
上記のような電磁式燃料噴射装置にあって、特許文献１では、コイルへの電流供給を停止した後に電流を再供給することにより、弁体の閉弁速度を抑制し、閉弁時に弁体が弁座と衝突する際の衝撃力を緩和することによって、閉弁後に発生する弁体のバウンドを低減するようにしたものである。 In the electromagnetic fuel injection device as described above, in Patent Document 1, the valve closing speed of the valve body is suppressed by supplying the current again after stopping the current supply to the coil, and the valve body is closed when the valve is closed. By reducing the impact force at the time of collision with the valve seat, the bounce of the valve body that occurs after the valve is closed is reduced.
また、特許文献２では、可動子を開弁動作開始時の初期位置に素早く復帰させるため、開弁状態から閉弁状態への閉弁動作時に、弁体が弁座に衝突した後にコイルへの通電を行い、可動子に対して閉弁動作の向きとは反対向きの力を作用させることにより、弁体が弁座と接触した後の可動子の運動を抑制し、可動子を開弁動作開始時の初期位置に素早く復帰させる方法が開示されている。 Further, in Patent Document 2, in order to quickly return the mover to the initial position at the start of the valve opening operation, the valve element is applied to the coil after the valve body collides with the valve seat during the valve closing operation from the valve opening state to the valve closing state. By energizing and applying a force opposite to the valve closing direction to the mover, the movement of the mover after the valve element contacts the valve seat is suppressed, and the mover is opened. A method for quickly returning to the initial position at the start is disclosed.
近年では、内燃機関の燃料消費を低減する手法として、排気量を減らして小型化するとともに、過給器によって出力を得るダウンサイジングエンジンがある。ダウンサイジングエンジンでは、排気量を減らすことで、ポンピングロスやフリクションを低減することができるため、燃費を低減することができる。一方で、過給器を用いることで十分な出力を得ると共に、筒内直接噴射を行うことによる吸気冷却効果により、過給に伴う圧縮比の低下を抑制し、低燃費を実現できる。このダウンサイジングエンジンにおいては、エンジン筒内のシリンダ径が縮小傾向にあり、噴射した燃料がシリンダ壁面に到達することが懸念される。噴射した燃料がシリンダ壁面に到達しないようにする方法として、一回の噴射行程中に必要な量の燃料を複数回に分けて噴射する分割噴射を行う方法がある。 In recent years, as a technique for reducing the fuel consumption of an internal combustion engine, there is a downsizing engine that reduces the size of the engine by reducing the displacement and obtains output by a supercharger. In the downsizing engine, the pumping loss and the friction can be reduced by reducing the displacement, so that the fuel consumption can be reduced. On the other hand, a sufficient output can be obtained by using the supercharger, and a reduction in the compression ratio due to supercharging can be suppressed and fuel consumption can be reduced by the intake air cooling effect by performing direct in-cylinder injection. In this downsizing engine, the cylinder diameter in the engine cylinder tends to decrease, and there is a concern that the injected fuel reaches the cylinder wall surface. As a method of preventing the injected fuel from reaching the cylinder wall surface, there is a method of performing split injection in which a necessary amount of fuel is injected in a plurality of times during one injection stroke.
このような分割噴射を行うに際し、従来技術である特許文献１においては、弁体が弁座に衝突するまでの弁体の駆動方法に関する内容を記載したものであり、弁体が弁座に衝突してからの弁体及び可動子の挙動については配慮されていない。弁体が弁座に衝突した後も、弁体及び可動子は振動的な運動を継続する。 In performing such divided injection, Patent Document 1 as a prior art describes the contents related to the driving method of the valve body until the valve body collides with the valve seat, and the valve body collides with the valve seat. Then, the behavior of the valve body and the mover is not taken into consideration. Even after the valve body collides with the valve seat, the valve body and the mover continue to vibrate.
特に、可動子が弁体に対して相対運動可能な構成においては、弁体が弁座に衝突した後、可動子が弁体に対して相対運動を継続する。このため、可動子が静止するまでには時間を要し、次の噴射を行うには噴射間隔を十分に確保する必要があった。また、弁体が弁座に衝突した後、可動子は弁体から離脱し、一定の時間後に可動子を開弁方向に付勢する付勢手段の力に応じて弁体と接触するが、可動子の質量，衝突速度が大きいと可動子が弁体を押し上げてしまい、開弁する可能性がある。 In particular, in a configuration in which the mover can move relative to the valve element, the mover continues relative movement with respect to the valve element after the valve element collides with the valve seat. For this reason, it takes time for the mover to stand still, and it is necessary to ensure a sufficient injection interval for the next injection. Further, after the valve body collides with the valve seat, the mover is detached from the valve body, and contacts the valve body according to the force of the urging means that urges the mover in the valve opening direction after a certain time. If the mass of the mover and the collision speed are large, the mover may push up the valve body and open the valve.
このような分割噴射間隔の低減方法として、例えば特開２００８−２８０８７６号公報には、可動子が弁座と接触した後に中間電流の供給を行い、可動子の静止時間を低減する方法が開示されている。 As a method for reducing such a divided injection interval, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-280876 discloses a method of reducing the stationary time of the mover by supplying an intermediate current after the mover contacts the valve seat. ing.
しかしながら、これからの特許文献に開示されている方法では、中間電流を供給するタイミングや中間電流の打ち切りタイミングについて十分な配慮がなされていない。 However, in the methods disclosed in future patent documents, sufficient consideration is not given to the timing of supplying the intermediate current and the timing of stopping the intermediate current.
本発明の目的は、第１の燃料噴射期間とこの第１の燃料噴射期間に引き続いて行われる第２の燃料噴射期間の間隔を短くすることができる燃料噴射装置の駆動装置を提供することにある。 An object of the present invention is to provide a drive device for a fuel injection device that can shorten the interval between a first fuel injection period and a second fuel injection period that is performed subsequent to the first fuel injection period. is there.
本発明では、先の燃料噴射（第１の燃料噴射）と後の燃料噴射（第２の燃料噴射）との間に、開弁しない程度の電圧印加を行って中間電流を流す。この中間電流を流すための電圧印加は、先の燃料噴射で弁体が閉弁した第１の時点から後の燃料噴射で電流供給を開始する第２の時点までの間の時間の半分の時間が第１の時点から経過する前に打ち切る。
In the present invention, an intermediate current flows by applying a voltage that does not open the valve between the previous fuel injection (first fuel injection) and the subsequent fuel injection (second fuel injection). The voltage application for causing the intermediate current to flow is half the time from the first time point when the valve body is closed by the previous fuel injection to the second time point when the current supply is started by the subsequent fuel injection. Censors before elapses from the first point in time.
具体的には、以下のように構成するとよい。
コイルと磁気コアとで構成される電磁石によって可動子および該可動子が相対運動可能に組み付けられた弁体とを駆動して燃料噴射口の開閉を行う電磁式燃料噴射弁に対して用いられ、電磁式燃料噴射弁のコイルに電流を供給するための印加電圧を制御する駆動装置において、
第１の燃料噴射期間の終了に伴う電圧印加の終了後、前記第１の燃料噴射期間に引き続く第２の燃料噴射期間の開始に伴う電圧印加の開始前に、前記弁体を開弁動作させる場合と同じ向きの中間電流を供給する電圧印加を行い、
前記中間電流を供給する電圧印加を、前記弁体が前記弁座に着座する第１の時点と前記第２の燃料噴射期間に対する前記電圧印加を開始する第２の時点との間の時間の半分の時間が前記第１の時点から経過する前に終了する
Specifically, it may be configured as follows.
Mover and mover by composed electromagnet coil and the magnetic core is used for electromagnetic fuel injection valve for opening and closing the fuel injection port by driving a valve element which is assembled to allow relative movement, In a drive device for controlling an applied voltage for supplying a current to a coil of an electromagnetic fuel injection valve,
After the voltage application accompanying the end of the first fuel injection period, the valve element is opened before starting the voltage application accompanying the start of the second fuel injection period following the first fuel injection period. Apply voltage to supply intermediate current in the same direction as
Wherein the voltage application to supply an intermediate current, the valve body is a time between the second time point to start the voltage application to the second fuel injection period and the first time you seated on the valve seat Half of the time ends before the first time elapses
本発明によれば、第１の燃料噴射期間とこの第１の燃料噴射期間に引き続いて行われる第２の燃料噴射期間の間隔を短くすることができる。この技術を分割噴射に適用することにより、分割噴射間隔を低減した燃料噴射装置の駆動が可能となる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to shorten the interval between the first fuel injection period and the second fuel injection period that follows the first fuel injection period. By applying this technique to split injection, it is possible to drive a fuel injection device with a reduced split injection interval.
以下図１〜図３を用いて、本発明の実施形態による燃料噴射装置の構成及び動作について説明する。 Hereinafter, the configuration and operation of the fuel injection device according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
最初に、図１を用いて、本発明の実施形態による燃料噴射装置の構成と基本的な動作を説明する。図１は本発明の実施形態における燃料噴射装置の縦断面図とその燃料噴射装置を駆動するための、ＥＤＵ（駆動回路）１２１，ＥＣＵ（エンジンコントロールユニット）１２０の構成の一例を示す図である。なお、ＥＣＵ１２０とＥＤＵ１２１は一体の部品として構成されてもよい。少なくとも燃料噴射装置（電磁式燃料噴射弁）の駆動装置は、燃料噴射装置の駆動電圧を発生する装置であって、ＥＣＵとＥＤＵとが一体となったものであってもよいし、ＥＤＵ単体であってもよい。 First, the configuration and basic operation of the fuel injection device according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a fuel injection device according to an embodiment of the present invention and a diagram showing an example of the configuration of an EDU (drive circuit) 121 and an ECU (engine control unit) 120 for driving the fuel injection device. . ECU 120 and EDU 121 may be configured as an integral part. At least the drive device of the fuel injection device (electromagnetic fuel injection valve) is a device that generates the drive voltage of the fuel injection device, and the ECU and EDU may be integrated, or the EDU alone. There may be.
ＥＣＵ１２０では、エンジンの状態を示す信号を各種センサーから取り込み、内燃機関の運転条件に応じて適切な噴射パルスの幅や噴射タイミングの演算を行う。ＥＣＵ１２０より出力された噴射パルスは、信号線１２３を通して燃料噴射装置のＥＤＵ１２１に入力される。ＥＤＵ１２１は、コイル１０５に印加する電圧を制御し、電流を供給する。ＥＣＵ１２０は、通信ライン１２２を通して、ＥＤＵ１２１と通信を行っており、燃料噴射装置に供給する燃料の圧力や運転条件によってＥＤＵ１２１によって生成する駆動電流を切替えることが可能である。ＥＤＵ１２１は、ＥＣＵ１２０との通信によって制御定数を変化できるようになっており、制御定数に応じて電流波形が変化する。本発明における分割噴射を行う際、分割噴射を行うための制御方法として、ＥＣＵ１２０から分割噴射を行う際の中間電流を行うための電圧印加の指令パルスを出力する場合と、ＥＣＵ１２０側から制御定数をＥＤＵ１２１に送信し、ＥＤＵ１２１から中間電流を直接供給する場合がある。 The ECU 120 takes in signals indicating the state of the engine from various sensors, and calculates an appropriate injection pulse width and injection timing according to the operating conditions of the internal combustion engine. The injection pulse output from the ECU 120 is input to the EDU 121 of the fuel injection device through the signal line 123. The EDU 121 controls a voltage applied to the coil 105 and supplies a current. The ECU 120 communicates with the EDU 121 through the communication line 122, and can switch the drive current generated by the EDU 121 according to the pressure of fuel supplied to the fuel injection device and the operating conditions. The EDU 121 can change the control constant by communication with the ECU 120, and the current waveform changes according to the control constant. When performing divided injection in the present invention, as a control method for performing divided injection, the ECU 120 outputs a command pulse for voltage application for performing an intermediate current when performing divided injection, and a control constant from the ECU 120 side. In some cases, the intermediate current is directly supplied from the EDU 121 by being transmitted to the EDU 121.
続いて、図１の燃料噴射装置の縦断面と図２の噴射パルスと弁体１１４及び可動子１０２の変位の関係を用いて燃料噴射装置構成と動作について説明する。図２は、ＥＣＵから出力される噴射パルスと弁体１１４，可動子１０２の挙動の関係を示した図である。 Next, the configuration and operation of the fuel injection device will be described using the longitudinal section of the fuel injection device in FIG. 1 and the relationship between the injection pulse in FIG. 2 and the displacement of the valve body 114 and the mover 102. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the relationship between the injection pulse output from the ECU and the behavior of the valve body 114 and the mover 102.
図１における燃料噴射装置は、通常閉弁型の電磁式燃料噴射装置であり、コイル１０５に通電されていない状態では、弁体１１４はスプリング（第１のばね）１１０により閉弁方向に付勢され、弁座１１８に密着し閉状態となっている。この閉状態においては、可動子（アンカ又は可動コアとも言う）１０２は、ゼロスプリング（第２のばね）１１２によって開弁方向に付勢され、衝突面３０１が弁体１１４の衝突面３０２に密着している。この状態では、可動子１０２と磁気コア（固定コアとも言う）１０７との間に空隙を有している。燃料は燃料噴射装置の上部より供給され、弁座１１８で燃料をシールしている。閉弁時には、燃料圧力によって弁座位置におけるシート内径に応じた力で弁体１１４が閉方向に押されている。 The fuel injection device in FIG. 1 is a normally closed electromagnetic fuel injection device, and the valve body 114 is urged in the valve closing direction by a spring (first spring) 110 when the coil 105 is not energized. In close contact with the valve seat 118, the valve seat 118 is closed. In this closed state, the movable element (also called an anchor or movable core) 102 is urged in the valve opening direction by a zero spring (second spring) 112, and the collision surface 301 is in close contact with the collision surface 302 of the valve body 114. doing. In this state, there is a gap between the mover 102 and the magnetic core (also referred to as a fixed core) 107. The fuel is supplied from the upper part of the fuel injection device, and the fuel is sealed by the valve seat 118. When the valve is closed, the valve body 114 is pushed in the closing direction by a force corresponding to the seat inner diameter at the valve seat position by the fuel pressure.
燃料噴射装置は、磁気コア１０７，可動子１０２，ヨーク１０３とで磁気回路を構成しており、噴射パルスが入力されると、コイル１０５に電流が供給され、磁気回路中に磁束が発生し、可動部品である可動子１０２と磁気コア１０７との間に磁気吸引力が発生する。可動子１０２に作用する磁気吸引力がスプリング１１０による荷重と、燃料圧力による力の和を超えるタイミングｔ21で可動子１０２が上方（磁気コア１０７の側）へ動く。可動子１０２が変位する際には、可動子１０２側の衝突面３０１と弁体１１４側の衝突面３０２とが接触（係合）することにより、衝突面３０１と衝突面３０２との間で力を伝達する。このとき可動子１０２は弁体１１４と結合して一緒に上方（磁気コア１０７の側）へ移動し、可動子１０２の上端面が磁気コア１０７の下面に衝突して開弁状態に至る。 In the fuel injection device, the magnetic core 107, the mover 102, and the yoke 103 constitute a magnetic circuit. When an injection pulse is input, a current is supplied to the coil 105, and a magnetic flux is generated in the magnetic circuit. A magnetic attractive force is generated between the movable element 102 which is a movable part and the magnetic core 107. And load the magnetic attraction force of the spring 110 acting on the movable element 102, the movable element 102 at a timing t 21 that exceeds the sum of the force due to fuel pressure moves upward (the side of the magnetic core 107). When the movable element 102 is displaced, the collision surface 301 on the movable element 102 side and the collision surface 302 on the valve body 114 side come into contact (engagement), so that a force is generated between the collision surface 301 and the collision surface 302. To communicate. At this time, the movable element 102 is coupled to the valve body 114 and moves upward (toward the magnetic core 107) together, and the upper end surface of the movable element 102 collides with the lower surface of the magnetic core 107 to reach the valve open state.
その結果、弁体１１４が弁座１１８より離間し、供給された燃料が複数の噴射口１１９から噴射される。 As a result, the valve body 114 is separated from the valve seat 118, and the supplied fuel is injected from the plurality of injection ports 119.
続いて、噴射パルスがｔ23のタイミングでＯＦＦになると、コイル１０５への電流供給が断たれ、磁気回路中に生じていた磁束が消滅し磁気吸引力も消滅する。 Subsequently, when the injection pulse is turned OFF at the timing t 23, the current supply to the coil 105 is cut off, the magnetic flux that occurs in the magnetic circuit also disappears extinct magnetic attraction.
その結果、磁気吸引力を失った可動子１０２はスプリング１１０の荷重と、燃料圧力による力によって、弁体１１４が弁座１１８に接触する閉位置に押し戻される。このとき、弁体１１４にはたらくスプリング１１０による力は弁体１１４側の衝突面３０２及び可動子１０２側の衝突面３０１を介して可動子１０２に伝達される。タイミングｔ24で弁体１１４が弁座１１８と接触した後、可動子１０２の衝突面３０１は弁体１１４の衝突面３０２から離脱し、下向き方向（閉弁方向）に運動を継続する。その後可動子１０２はゼロスプリング１１２によって押し戻されて、タイミングｔ25で衝突面３０１が弁体１１４の衝突面３０２に接触するが、この時点で可動子１０２に働く上向き方向（開弁方向）の力が弁体１１４に働く下向き方向の力よりも大きいと２０１のように弁体１１４を押し上げて余分な噴射を行う可能性がある。このように、弁体１１４が弁座１１８に衝突後に可動子１０２が運動を継続するため、可動子１０２が静止するまでに次の分割噴射を行うと、可動子の位置，速度のばらつきに応じて噴射量がばらつくという問題がある。従って、分割噴射間隔の低減を行うためには、閉弁後の可動子１０２の運動を素早く静止させ、余分な噴射を抑えるために、可動子１０２が弁体１１４と衝突する際の運動エネルギーを小さくする必要がある。 As a result, the movable element 102 that has lost the magnetic attractive force is pushed back to the closed position where the valve element 114 contacts the valve seat 118 by the load of the spring 110 and the force of the fuel pressure. At this time, the force by the spring 110 acting on the valve element 114 is transmitted to the movable element 102 via the collision surface 302 on the valve element 114 side and the collision surface 301 on the movable element 102 side. After the valve body 114 comes into contact with the valve seat 118 at timing t 24 , the collision surface 301 of the mover 102 is detached from the collision surface 302 of the valve body 114 and continues to move downward (valve closing direction). Then the movable element 102 is pushed back by the zero spring 112, although the impact surface 301 at a timing t 25 contacts the impact surface 302 of the valve body 114, the force of the upward direction (valve opening direction) acting on the movable element 102 at this time Is larger than the downward force acting on the valve body 114, there is a possibility that the valve body 114 is pushed up as in 201 and extra injection is performed. As described above, since the movable element 102 continues to move after the valve element 114 collides with the valve seat 118, if the next divided injection is performed before the movable element 102 stops, it corresponds to the variation in the position and speed of the movable element. There is a problem that the injection amount varies. Therefore, in order to reduce the divided injection interval, the kinetic energy when the movable element 102 collides with the valve body 114 is used to quickly stop the movement of the movable element 102 after the valve is closed and suppress excessive injection. It needs to be small.
図４を用いて本発明における第一の実施例を説明する。図４はＥＣＵ１２０から出力される噴射パルスと燃料噴射装置に供給する駆動電圧と駆動電流（励磁電流）のタイミング，可動子１０２の挙動の関係を示した図である。 A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the relationship between the injection pulse output from the ECU 120, the timing of the drive voltage and drive current (excitation current) supplied to the fuel injection device, and the behavior of the mover 102.
噴射パルス４０８が入力されると、バッテリ電圧ＶＢよりも高い電圧に昇圧された高電圧源から高電圧４０１が印加され、コイル１０５に電流の供給が開始される。電流値が予め定められたピーク電流値Ｉｐｅａｋに達すると、高電圧の印加を停止して、印加する電圧を０Ｖ以下にし、電流４０４のように電流値を低下させる。 When the injection pulse 408 is input, a high voltage 401 is applied from a high voltage source boosted to a voltage higher than the battery voltage VB, and supply of current to the coil 105 is started. When the current value reaches a predetermined peak current value Ipeak, the application of the high voltage is stopped, the applied voltage is set to 0 V or less, and the current value is lowered as in the case of the current 404.
続いて、ある一定の時間後もしくは、駆動電流が開弁を保持可能な電流値４０６以下になった時点で駆動回路１２１はバッテリ電圧の印加を４０２に示すようにスイッチングにて行い、所定の電流値４０５になるように制御する。続いて噴射パルスがＯＦＦになると印加する電圧を０Ｖ以下にし、電流を低下させ、閉弁方向の力であるスプリング１１０による荷重と燃料圧力による力の和が開弁方向の力を超えた時点で、可動子１０２は閉弁を開始する。その後、可動子１０２の変位量が０以下となる前（弁体１１４が弁座１１８に着座するタイミング以前、すなわち、可動子１０２の衝突面３０１と弁体１１４の衝突面３０２との係合が解除されて可動子１０２が弁体１１４に対して閉弁方向に相対変位を開始するタイミング以前）に、噴射パルス４０９をＯＮにし、高電圧源から高電圧４０３を印加し、コイル１０５に中間電流４０７を供給する。駆動電圧を印加してから磁気コア１０７と可動子１０２の間に磁気吸引力が発生するまでには磁気的な遅れ時間が存在するため、可動子１０２の変位量が０以下となる前に予め印加電圧を供給することにより、タイミングｔ32以降の可動子１０２の運動を素早く減衰させ、可動子１０２が静止するまでの時間Ｔｒを短縮することが可能となる。中間電流４０７に関しては、タイミングｔ32以降の可動子１０２の運動を素早く減衰させる目的で用いるが、タイミングｔ31よりも早い段階で中間電流３０７を供給すると、弁体１１４の閉弁速度が低減され、弁体１１４と弁座１１８が衝突する際に発生する駆動音を低減する効果と弁座部の磨耗低減の効果を得ることができる。また、弁体１１４と弁座１１８が衝突する際の衝突速度を低減することが可能となるため、可動子１０２が静止するまでの時間Ｔｒのさらなる短縮が可能となる。 Subsequently, after a certain period of time or when the drive current becomes equal to or less than the current value 406 that can hold the valve open, the drive circuit 121 performs the application of the battery voltage by switching as indicated by 402 to obtain a predetermined current. Control is performed so that the value becomes 405. Subsequently, when the injection pulse is turned off, the applied voltage is reduced to 0 V or less, the current is reduced, and the sum of the load due to the spring 110 that is the force in the valve closing direction and the force due to the fuel pressure exceeds the force in the valve opening direction. The movable element 102 starts to close the valve. After that, before the displacement amount of the movable element 102 becomes 0 or less (before the timing when the valve body 114 is seated on the valve seat 118, that is, the collision surface 301 of the movable element 102 and the collision surface 302 of the valve body 114 are engaged. The injection pulse 409 is turned on and the high voltage 403 is applied from the high voltage source before the movable element 102 is released and before the movable element 102 starts relative displacement in the valve closing direction. 407 is supplied. Since there is a magnetic delay time from when the drive voltage is applied to when the magnetic attractive force is generated between the magnetic core 107 and the mover 102, the displacement of the mover 102 is reduced to 0 or less in advance. By supplying the applied voltage, it is possible to quickly attenuate the movement of the movable element 102 after the timing t 32 and to shorten the time Tr until the movable element 102 stops. The intermediate current 407 is used for the purpose of quickly damping the movement of the mover 102 after the timing t 32. However, if the intermediate current 307 is supplied at an earlier stage than the timing t 31 , the valve closing speed of the valve body 114 is reduced. In addition, it is possible to obtain the effect of reducing the driving sound generated when the valve body 114 and the valve seat 118 collide and the effect of reducing the wear of the valve seat portion. In addition, since the collision speed when the valve body 114 and the valve seat 118 collide can be reduced, it is possible to further shorten the time Tr until the movable element 102 stops.
その後一定時間の間、中間電流を供給した後、噴射パルスをＯＦＦにし、駆動電圧ならびにコイル１０５への中間電流４０７の供給を停止する。この中間電流４０７を打ち切るタイミングは、可動子１０２の変位量が０となる、もしくは、弁体１１４が弁座１１８と接触するタイミングＴ32から、次の分割噴射を行うための駆動電圧を供給するタイミングｔ35の間の時間であるＴdの半分以下である必要がある。以上のように中間電流４０７の打ち切りタイミングを設定することによって、タイミングｔ34以降に可動子１０２が再び加速して、弁体１１４に衝突し、弁体１１４を押し上げることにより発生する余分な噴射を抑制することが可能となる。 Thereafter, after supplying an intermediate current for a certain time, the injection pulse is turned off, and the supply of the drive voltage and the intermediate current 407 to the coil 105 is stopped. Timing truncating the intermediate current 407 from time T 32 to the displacement amount of the movable element 102 becomes zero, or the valve body 114 contacts the valve seat 118, and supplies a drive voltage for performing the next split injection It is necessary to be less than half of T d which is the time between timing t 35 . By setting the abort timing of the intermediate current 407 as described above, to accelerate the movable element 102 again after the timing t 34, it collides with the valve body 114, extra injection which occurs by pushing up the valve body 114 It becomes possible to suppress.
本実施例では、中間電流４０７を供給するための電圧印加４０３は、中間電流４０７の大きさが弁座１１８に着座した弁体１１４を弁座１１８から離間させるのに必要な大きさになる前に終了している。 In the present embodiment, the voltage application 403 for supplying the intermediate current 407 is performed before the magnitude of the intermediate current 407 becomes a magnitude necessary for separating the valve body 114 seated on the valve seat 118 from the valve seat 118. Has ended.
また、噴射パルス４０８と噴射パルス４０９とは、昇圧回路５１４（図５参照）で昇圧された電圧を印加する昇圧電圧印加期間（４０１を印加している期間）と昇圧電圧印加期間の後に電源電圧をスイッチングにより印加する電源電圧スイッチング期間（４０２を印加している期間）とを有し、中間電流４０７の最大値は電源電圧スイッチング期間に印加した電圧４０２により流れる電流の最大値よりも大きく、昇圧電圧印加期間に印加した電圧４０１により流れる電流の最大値よりも小さい。 The ejection pulse 408 and the ejection pulse 409 are a power supply voltage after a boosted voltage application period (a period during which the 401 is applied) for applying a voltage boosted by the booster circuit 514 (see FIG. 5) and a boosted voltage application period. And the maximum value of the intermediate current 407 is larger than the maximum value of the current flowing by the voltage 402 applied during the power supply voltage switching period. It is smaller than the maximum value of the current flowing by the voltage 401 applied during the voltage application period.
噴射パルス４０８は第１の燃料噴射期間のためのパルスであり、噴射パルス４１０は第２の燃料噴射期間のためのパルスである。噴射パルス４０９は第１の燃料噴射期間と第２の燃料噴射期間との間に流す中間電流のための噴射パルスであるが、この噴射パルス４０９によって、弁体１１４が開弁動作することはない。また、第１の燃料噴射期間のための噴射パルス４０８が終了しても、弁体１１４は閉弁位置に戻りきらず、燃料噴射自体は噴射パルス４０８の終了から少し遅れて終了することになる。第２の燃料噴射期間についても同様である。 The injection pulse 408 is a pulse for the first fuel injection period, and the injection pulse 410 is a pulse for the second fuel injection period. The injection pulse 409 is an injection pulse for an intermediate current that flows between the first fuel injection period and the second fuel injection period, but the valve body 114 does not open by this injection pulse 409. . Further, even when the injection pulse 408 for the first fuel injection period ends, the valve body 114 does not return to the valve closing position, and the fuel injection itself ends slightly after the end of the injection pulse 408. The same applies to the second fuel injection period.
また、第１の燃料噴射期間のパルス４０８と第２の燃料噴射期間のパルス４１０とは、一回の噴射行程中に出力されるものである。すなわち、本実施例では、一回の噴射行程中に噴射する量の燃料を、少なくとも噴射パルス４０８，４０９を含む複数回に分割して噴射している。尚、「一回の噴射行程」とは、一回の燃焼サイクル（４サイクルでは吸気，圧縮，爆発，排気の各行程からなる）を意味するものである。 The pulse 408 in the first fuel injection period and the pulse 410 in the second fuel injection period are output during one injection stroke. That is, in this embodiment, the amount of fuel to be injected during one injection stroke is injected divided into a plurality of times including at least injection pulses 408 and 409. Note that “one injection stroke” means one combustion cycle (four cycles consist of intake, compression, explosion, and exhaust strokes).
図５を用いて本発明の第一の実施例における燃料噴射装置の駆動回路１２１の構成について説明する。図５は燃料噴射装置を駆動する回路構成を示した図である。ＣＰＵ５０１は例えばＥＣＵ１２０に内包され、内燃機関の運転条件に応じて適切な噴射パルス幅Ｔｉや噴射タイミングの演算を行い、通信ライン５０４を通して燃料噴射装置の駆動ＩＣ５０２に噴射パルスＴｉを出力する。その後駆動ＩＣ５０２によって、スイッチング素子５０５，５０６，５０７のＯＮ，ＯＦＦを切替えて、燃料噴射装置５１５へ駆動電流を供給する。 The configuration of the drive circuit 121 of the fuel injection device in the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a circuit configuration for driving the fuel injection device. The CPU 501 is included in the ECU 120, for example, calculates an appropriate injection pulse width Ti and injection timing according to the operating conditions of the internal combustion engine, and outputs the injection pulse Ti to the drive IC 502 of the fuel injection device through the communication line 504. Thereafter, the driving IC 502 switches ON / OFF of the switching elements 505, 506 and 507, and supplies a driving current to the fuel injection device 515.
スイッチング素子５０５は駆動回路１２１に入力された電圧源ＶＢよりも高い高電圧源ＶＨと燃料噴射装置５１５の高電圧側の端子間に接続されている。スイッチング素子５０５，５０６，５０７は、例えばＦＥＴやトランジスタ等によって構成される。高電圧源ＶＨは例えば、６０Ｖであり、バッテリ電圧を昇圧回路５１４によって昇圧することで生成される。昇圧回路５１４は例えば、ＤＣ／ＤＣコンバータ等により構成される。スイッチング素子５０７は、低電圧源ＶＢと燃料噴射装置５１５の高圧端子間に接続されている。
低電圧源ＶＢは例えば、バッテリ電圧であり１２Ｖである。スイッチング素子５０６は、燃料噴射装置５１５の低電圧側の端子と設置電位の間に接続されている。駆動ＩＣ５０２は、電流検出用の抵抗５０８，５１２，５１３により、燃料噴射装置５１５に流れている電流値を検出し、検出した電流値によって、スイッチング素子５０５，５０６，５０７のＯＮ，ＯＦＦを切替え、所望の駆動電流を生成している。ダイオード５０９と５１０は電流を遮断するために備え付けられている。ＣＰＵ５０１は駆動ＩＣ５０２と通信ライン５０３を通して、通信を行っており、燃料噴射装置５１５に供給する燃料の圧力や運転条件によって駆動ＩＣ５０２によって生成する駆動電流を切替えることが可能である。
The switching element 505 is connected between a high voltage source VH higher than the voltage source VB input to the drive circuit 121 and a high voltage side terminal of the fuel injection device 515. The switching elements 505, 506, and 507 are configured by, for example, FETs or transistors. The high voltage source VH is 60 V, for example, and is generated by boosting the battery voltage by the booster circuit 514. The booster circuit 514 is configured by, for example, a DC / DC converter or the like. The switching element 507 is connected between the low voltage source VB and the high voltage terminal of the fuel injection device 515.
The low voltage source VB is, for example, a battery voltage of 12V. The switching element 506 is connected between the terminal on the low voltage side of the fuel injection device 515 and the installation potential. The driving IC 502 detects the current value flowing in the fuel injection device 515 by the current detection resistors 508, 512, and 513, and switches the switching elements 505, 506, and 507 on and off based on the detected current value. A desired drive current is generated. Diodes 509 and 510 are provided to cut off the current. The CPU 501 communicates with the drive IC 502 through the communication line 503, and the drive current generated by the drive IC 502 can be switched depending on the pressure of fuel supplied to the fuel injection device 515 and the operation conditions.
次に、図５と図６を用いて、本発明の第一の実施形態における燃料噴射装置に流れる駆動電流を生成するための、スイッチング素子の切替えタイミングについて説明する。 Next, the switching timing of the switching element for generating the drive current flowing through the fuel injection device according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.
図６は、ＣＰＵ５０１より出力される噴射パルスと駆動電流，スイッチング素子（ＳＷ）５０５，スイッチング素子（ＳＷ）５０６，スイッチング素子（ＳＷ）５０６のＯＮ，ＯＦＦのタイミングを示した図である。 FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the ejection pulse and drive current output from the CPU 501, the switching element (SW) 505, the switching element (SW) 506, and the switching element (SW) 506 timing of ON / OFF.
タイミングｔ61において、ＣＰＵ５０１より噴射パルスＴｉ６０４が通信ライン５０４を通して駆動ＩＣ５０２に入力されると、スイッチング素子５０５とスイッチング素子５０６がＯＮとなり、バッテリ電圧よりも高い高電圧源ＶＨから電流が燃料噴射装置５１５に供給され、電流が急速に立ち上がる。電流がピーク電流値Ｉｐｅａｋに達すると、スイッチング素子５０５とスイッチング素子５０６が共にＯＦＦになり、燃料噴射装置５１５のインダクタンスによる逆起電力によって、ダイオード５０９とダイオード５１０が通電し、電流が電圧源ＶＨ側へ帰還され、燃料噴射装置５１５に供給されていた電流は、電流６０１のようにピーク電流値Ｉｐｅａｋから急速に低下する。なお、ピーク電流値Ｉｐｅａｋから保持電流６０２への移行期間にスイッチング素子５０６をＯＮにすると、逆起電力エネルギーによる電流は接地電位側に流れ、電流は緩やかに低下する。その後、タイミングｔ62に到達すると、スイッチング素子５０６をＯＮにし、スイッチング素子５０７のＯＮ，ＯＦＦの切替えを行い、保持電流６０２を保持する。その後、噴射パルスがＯＦＦになるとスイッチング素子５０６とスイッチング素子５０７が共にＯＦＦとなり電流が低下する。一定の時間後に、再び噴射パルス６０５が入力されると、スイッチング素子５０５，５０６が共にＯＮとなり、高電圧源ＶＨから中間電流６０３が燃料噴射装置５１５に供給される。その後、一定の時間中間電流６０３の供給を行った後、所定のタイミングｔ64で噴射パルス幅がＯＦＦとなると、スイッチング素子５０５，５０６が共にＯＦＦとなり、中間電流６０３は速やかに低下する。 At timing t 61 , when the injection pulse Ti 604 is input from the CPU 501 to the drive IC 502 through the communication line 504, the switching element 505 and the switching element 506 are turned on, and current is supplied from the high voltage source VH higher than the battery voltage to the fuel injection device 515. And the current rises rapidly. When the current reaches the peak current value Ipeak, both the switching element 505 and the switching element 506 are turned off, the diode 509 and the diode 510 are energized by the back electromotive force due to the inductance of the fuel injection device 515, and the current is on the voltage source VH side. The current fed back to the fuel injection device 515 rapidly decreases from the peak current value Ipeak as indicated by a current 601. Note that when the switching element 506 is turned ON during the transition period from the peak current value Ipeak to the holding current 602, the current due to the back electromotive force energy flows to the ground potential side, and the current gradually decreases. Then, upon reaching the timing t 62, the switching element 506 to ON, ON of the switching element 507, and switch OFF, the hold of the holding current 602. Thereafter, when the ejection pulse is turned off, both the switching element 506 and the switching element 507 are turned off, and the current is reduced. When the injection pulse 605 is input again after a certain time, both the switching elements 505 and 506 are turned ON, and the intermediate current 603 is supplied from the high voltage source VH to the fuel injection device 515. Then, after supplying a certain amount of time intermediate current 603, the injection pulse width at a predetermined timing t 64 is becomes the OFF, both the OFF and the switching element 505 and 506, the intermediate current 603 decreases rapidly.
図１と図７を用いて本発明における第二の実施例を説明する。図７はＥＣＵ１２０から出力される噴射パルスと燃料噴射装置に供給する駆動電圧と駆動電流のタイミング，可動子１０２の挙動の関係を示した図である。 A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing the relationship between the injection pulse output from the ECU 120, the timing of the drive voltage and drive current supplied to the fuel injection device, and the behavior of the mover 102.
本実施例のうち、第一の実施例と異なる点は、中間電流４０７を流すための高電圧７０３の電圧印加をＥＣＵ１２０からの噴射パルス幅ではなく、駆動回路１２１で行う点である。高電圧４０３の電圧印加のタイミングｔ41に関しては、噴射パルスが入力されてからの時間Ｔi1もしくは、噴射パルスを打ち切ってからの時間Ｔi2でタイミングの制御を行うことにより、実施例１における中間電流４０７を噴射パルスで制御する場合と同等の効果が得られる。 In this embodiment, the difference from the first embodiment is that the voltage application of the high voltage 703 for causing the intermediate current 407 to flow is performed not by the injection pulse width from the ECU 120 but by the drive circuit 121. With respect to the timing t 41 of the voltage application of the high voltage 403, the injection pulse from the input of the time T i1 or by controlling the timing at time T i2 since discontinued the injection pulse, the intermediate of Example 1 The same effect as when the current 407 is controlled by the injection pulse can be obtained.
図１，図４，図８を用いて本発明における第三の実施例を説明する。図８は第三実施例におけるＥＣＵ１２０から出力される噴射パルスと燃料噴射装置に供給する駆動電圧と駆動電流（励磁電流）のタイミング，可動子１０２の挙動の関係を示した図である。なお、図８において、図４と同一の構成部品には同一符号を付す。また、第一実施例との差異を明確にするため，図８に図４における駆動電流と可動子の変位量を点線で記載する。 A third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing the relationship between the injection pulse output from the ECU 120, the drive voltage supplied to the fuel injection device, the drive current (excitation current) timing, and the behavior of the mover 102 in the third embodiment. In FIG. 8, the same components as those in FIG. In order to clarify the difference from the first embodiment, the drive current and the displacement amount of the mover in FIG. 4 are indicated by dotted lines in FIG.
図８に示した例では、第一の実施例と異なる点は、図４における電流再供給のタイミングｔ31よりも早いタイミングで、噴射パルス８０１をＯＮにし、電圧源からバッテリ電圧ＶＢを印加し、コイル１０５に中間電流８０３を供給することである。この効果により、噴射パルス８０１をＯＦＦにしてから磁気回路中の磁束が消滅しきる前に再び磁気吸引力を発生させることができ、中間電流８０３を供給してから磁気吸引力が発生するまでの磁気的な遅れ時間を短縮することが可能となる。また、弁体１１４が弁座１１８と衝突する際の衝突速度を低減することが可能となるため、閉弁後の可動子１０２の運動エネルギーを低減することができ、可動子１０２が静止するまでの時間Ｔｒの低減が可能となる。また、タイミングｔ31よりも早い段階で中間電流８０３を供給すると、弁体１１４の閉弁速度が低減され、弁体１１４と弁座１１８が衝突する際に発生する駆動音を低減する効果と弁座部の磨耗低減の効果を得ることができる。 The example shown in FIG. 8 is different from the first embodiment in that the injection pulse 801 is turned on at a timing earlier than the current resupply timing t 31 in FIG. 4 and the battery voltage VB is applied from the voltage source. The intermediate current 803 is supplied to the coil 105. Due to this effect, the magnetic attractive force can be generated again after the ejection pulse 801 is turned off and before the magnetic flux in the magnetic circuit is completely extinguished, and the magnetic force from when the intermediate current 803 is supplied to when the magnetic attractive force is generated. It is possible to shorten the typical delay time. Further, since the collision speed when the valve body 114 collides with the valve seat 118 can be reduced, the kinetic energy of the movable element 102 after the valve closing can be reduced until the movable element 102 stops. The time Tr can be reduced. Further, if the intermediate current 803 is supplied at an earlier stage than the timing t 31 , the valve closing speed of the valve body 114 is reduced, and the effect of reducing the driving sound generated when the valve body 114 and the valve seat 118 collide with each other and the valve The effect of reducing the wear of the seat can be obtained.
また、中間電流８０３を供給するタイミングｔ81後に中間電流８０３がある一定の電流値に達すると駆動回路１２１はバッテリ電圧の印加を８０２に示すようにスイッチングにて行い、所定の電流値８０４になるように制御する。中間電流８０３に一定の電流値８０４が保持される期間を有することで、磁気コア１０７と可動子１０２との間に発生する磁気吸引力を一定に保持することができ、可動子１０２が静止するまでの時間Ｔｒを正確に制御することが可能となる。また、駆動回路１２１の消費電力はコイル１０５へ供給する電流値の二乗に比例することから、中間電流８０３の電流供給をバッテリ電圧ＶＢの印加により行うことで、消費電流を抑制することができる。また、高電圧源ＶＨがコンデンサに電荷を蓄積しバッテリ電圧ＶＢを昇圧するように構成されている場合、高電圧源ＶＨからコイル１０５に電流供給すると、高電圧源ＶＨの電圧値が時間とともに低下する。高電圧源ＶＨからの電圧印加を停止すると一定時間後、高電圧源ＶＨの電圧値は復帰するが、高電圧源ＶＨの電圧値が復帰する前に高電圧源ＶＨの印加を行うと、電流の立ち上がり時間が遅くなる可能性がある。したがって、バッテリ電圧ＶＢの印加により、コイル１０５へ中間電流８０３を供給することで、次の分割噴射を行うための駆動電圧を供給するタイミングｔ85で高電圧源の電圧値を復帰させ易くなり、コイル１０５への安定した電流供給が可能となる。 In addition, when the intermediate current 803 reaches a certain current value after the timing t 81 at which the intermediate current 803 is supplied, the drive circuit 121 performs the application of the battery voltage by switching as indicated by 802, and becomes a predetermined current value 804. To control. By having a period during which the constant current value 804 is held in the intermediate current 803, the magnetic attraction force generated between the magnetic core 107 and the mover 102 can be held constant, and the mover 102 stops. It is possible to accurately control the time Tr up to. Further, since the power consumption of the drive circuit 121 is proportional to the square of the current value supplied to the coil 105, the current consumption can be suppressed by supplying the intermediate current 803 by applying the battery voltage VB. Further, when the high voltage source VH is configured to store the electric charge in the capacitor and boost the battery voltage VB, when the current is supplied from the high voltage source VH to the coil 105, the voltage value of the high voltage source VH decreases with time. To do. When the voltage application from the high voltage source VH is stopped, the voltage value of the high voltage source VH is restored after a certain time. However, if the high voltage source VH is applied before the voltage value of the high voltage source VH is restored, The rise time may be delayed. Therefore, by supplying the intermediate current 803 to the coil 105 by the application of the battery voltage VB, the voltage value of the high voltage source can be easily restored at the timing t85 at which the drive voltage for performing the next divided injection is supplied. A stable current supply to the coil 105 is possible.
