2. Description of the Related Art In exhaust gas countermeasures for diesel engines and the like, in order to reduce the amount of NOx emitted from exhaust gas, the combustion temperature is reduced by recirculating a part of the exhaust gas, which is an inert gas, to the intake side. It is known that EGR (exhaust gas recirculation), which suppresses NOx generation while keeping it low, is effective and widely used.

This EGR device is also applied to a supercharged engine, and as shown in FIG. 5, an exhaust gas G is taken out from an exhaust manifold 12a, and an EGR device provided with an EGR cooler 7 is provided.
The EGR is performed by mixing the fresh air A in the intake passage 11 through the passage 9 and returning the mixture to the intake manifold 11a. However, in the supercharged engine, as the engine load increases, the intake pressure (boot pressure) increases and becomes higher than the exhaust pressure, so that the EGR gas G cannot be recirculated to the intake passage 11. .

Therefore, the exhaust pressure is reduced by opening the waste gate 12 b communicating with the exhaust passage 12, thereby reducing the rotational speed of the turbine 2, thereby reducing the intake pressure and returning the EGR gas G to the intake passage 11. There is a way. However, this method reduces the amount of fresh air A and causes an increase in smoke.
However, as shown in FIG. 4 (a), there is a problem that the engine is limited to an operation region of an engine with a low load and a middle rotation or lower.

However, in the device disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 3-117665, since the EGR gas is compressed by a compressor driven by the engine and stored in an accumulator tank, the EGR gas is supplied. Is used for this compressor, so that the loss of engine output increases accordingly. This loss increases as the engine speed increases and the load increases. Therefore, there is a problem that the loss increases when high output is required.
Further, there is a problem that a compressor and an accumulator having a large capacity are required to perform the EGR in a high rotation speed and a high load region.

In the apparatus disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. H5-180089, a turbine driven by exhaust gas is provided in an exhaust passage, and an EGR gas compressor connected to the turbine is used for EG.
The R gas is pressurized and returned to the intake passage. However, in this device, since three turbines including a power turbine for recovering the power of the exhaust gas are provided in series in the exhaust passage, the exhaust pressure of the exhaust manifold rises significantly during the EGR operation, so that pumping loss is reduced. There is a problem that the fuel efficiency is deteriorated due to the increase in size, and there is a problem that a region where the EGR can be performed due to the generation of black smoke due to a decrease in fresh air during high load operation is limited.

The apparatus disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 5-89859 divides the compressed air obtained by the first turbocharger to drive the second turbocharger, and the EGR gas is compressed by the compressor of the second turbocharger. , And at the same time, the compressed air is released from the compressor to lower the intake pressure to perform EGR. However, in this device, since the compressed air is branched, the amount of compressed intake air supplied to the cylinder is reduced, so that there is a problem that the amount of intake air with respect to the amount of EGR gas is reduced and smoke is generated.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, a supercharged EGR system for a supercharged engine drives a compressor provided in an intake passage by a turbine provided in an exhaust passage of the engine. In the engine, an exhaust passage and an intake passage are connected to provide a first EGR passage, and the first EGR passage is provided with an EGR gas compressor that boosts EGR gas and returns the EGR gas to the intake passage.
Since the R gas compressor and the turbine are connected and disconnected via a clutch mechanism so that it is not necessary to newly provide a turbine for the EGR gas compressor in the exhaust passage, the exhaust gas pressure rises. Can be prevented, and deterioration of fuel consumption can be prevented. Moreover, since there is no decrease in the intake air amount due to the branching and release of the intake air, the intake air amount supplied to the cylinder can be sufficiently ensured, and EGR can be performed while preventing the generation of smoke.

Since the inlet of the second EGR passage 19 is provided on the upstream side of the turbine 2, the exhaust gas G in a relatively high pressure portion on the upstream side of the turbine 2 can be used for the EGR. In addition, the EGR gas can be efficiently returned to the intake passage. Further, in the high load operation region indicated by the portion C in FIG. 3, since the intake pressure is higher than the exhaust pressure, the first EG
The R valve 8 is opened, the clutch mechanism 4 is turned on to transmit the driving force, the second EGR valve 18 is closed, the EGR gas G is led to the first EGR passage 9, and the EGR gas G is
The pressure is increased by the R gas compressor 5 and supplied to the intake passage 11 to perform EGR.

In the high-load operation region C, the energy of the exhaust gas G also increases, so that even if the EGR gas compressor 5 is driven, the fresh air A can be sufficiently compressed by the compressor 3 and the compressed intake air A Can be supplied to the cylinder and the amount of compressed intake air to the cylinder can be secured, so that an appropriate EGR rate can be secured and EGR can be performed efficiently.

That is, there is no need to open the waste gate 12b to release part of the exhaust gas G to lower the intake pressure, so that the energy of the exhaust gas G can be sufficiently used in the turbine 2. Further, since the inlet of the first EGR passage 9 is provided on the downstream side of the turbine 2, the energy of the exhaust gas G is recovered by passing through the turbine 2 before the EGR gas G is recirculated to the intake passage 11 side. Therefore, the compressor 3 can be driven efficiently.

Therefore, the path of the EGR gas G is divided into a first EGR passage 9 for increasing the pressure of the EGR gas G and a second EGR passage 9 for increasing the pressure of the EGR gas G in accordance with the rotational speed and load conditions of the engine 1.
By selecting the EGR passage 19, EGR suitable for the operating condition of the engine can be performed efficiently.

As described above, according to the EGR system for a supercharged engine according to the first aspect of the present invention, the EGR device is provided.
Since the EGR gas pressurized by the gas compressor is supplied to the intake passage side to perform the EGR, the operation range of the engine capable of performing the EGR can be expanded to the high load range.

Since the EGR gas compressor is driven by the turbine for the intake compressor provided in the exhaust passage via the clutch mechanism, it is not necessary to newly provide a turbine for the EGR gas compressor in the exhaust passage. In addition, since an increase in exhaust pressure can be prevented, pumping loss can be suppressed, and deterioration of fuel consumption can be prevented. Further, according to the EGR device of the supercharged engine according to the second and third aspects of the present invention, the EGR passage for returning the EGR gas to the intake side without increasing the pressure is added, and the EGR passage is divided into two lines. Therefore, in the operation region where the exhaust pressure is higher than the intake pressure, the gas is recirculated to the intake side via the second EGR passage, and in the operation region where the exhaust pressure is lower than the intake pressure, the gas is passed through the first EGR passage provided with the EGR gas compressor. Increased EGR
Since the gas can be recirculated, EGR can be performed efficiently while preventing loss of the engine output according to the engine speed and load conditions.
