PURPOSE: An EGR system is provided to improve the accelerating capability of an engine by realizing normal combustion by reducing a pressure of exhaust gas recirculated to the engine. CONSTITUTION: Exhaust gas exhausted from an engine(10) is supplied to the engine again through an EGR(Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve(20), a pressure reducing valve(30), and a throttle body(40) to lower a combustion temperature of the engine, thereby restricting generation of nitrogen oxides. The pressure reducing valve is installed on a passage connecting the EGR valve with the throttle body to reduce a pressure of the exhaust gas supplied to the throttle body from the EGR valve. The pressure reducing valve is formed of a first pressure reducing chamber(31) firstly reducing the pressure of the exhaust gas exhausted from the EGR valve, and a second pressure reducing chamber(35) secondly reducing the pressure of the exhaust gas exhausted from the first pressure reducing chamber.

이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예를 설명한다.Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 2는 본 발명에 따른 배기가스 재순환 시스템의 계통도로서, 도 2에서 참조부호 "10"은 엔진, "20"은 EGR 밸브, "30"은 감압밸브, "40"은 스로틀바디이다.2 is a system diagram of an exhaust gas recirculation system according to the present invention, in which reference numeral 10 denotes an engine, 20 denotes an EGR valve, 30 denotes a pressure reducing valve, and 40 denotes a throttle body.

상기 엔진(10)에서 연소되어 배출되는 배기가스는 EGR밸브(20)와 감압밸브(30) 및 스로틀바디(40)를 통해 다시 엔진(10)으로 공급되어 엔진(1)내의 연소온도를 낮춤으로써 질소산화물의 발생을 억제한다.The exhaust gas combusted and discharged from the engine 10 is supplied back to the engine 10 through the EGR valve 20, the pressure reducing valve 30, and the throttle body 40 to lower the combustion temperature in the engine 1. Suppresses the generation of nitrogen oxides.

상기 감압밸브(30)는 상기 EGR 밸브(20)와 스로틀바디(40)를 연결하는 유로상에 설치되어, 상기 EGR 밸브(20)에서 스로틀바디(40)로 공급되는 배기가스의 압력을 감소시키도록 되어 있는 것으로, 상기 EGR 밸브(20)에서 배출되는 배기가스를 1차로 감압하는 제1감압실(31)과, 상기 제1감압실(31)에서 배출되는 배기가스를 2차로 감압시키는 제2감압실(35)을 포함하여 구성되어 있다.The pressure reducing valve 30 is installed on a flow path connecting the EGR valve 20 and the throttle body 40 to reduce the pressure of the exhaust gas supplied from the EGR valve 20 to the throttle body 40. The first pressure reducing chamber 31 for firstly reducing the exhaust gas discharged from the EGR valve 20, and the second pressure reducing secondary exhaust gas discharged from the first pressure reducing chamber 31. It is comprised including the decompression chamber 35.

상기 제1감압실(31)에는, 배기가스의 유로를 굴곡시키기 위한 다수개의 돌출부(32, 33, 34)가 형성되어 있다. 또한, 상기 제2감압실(35)에는, 플레이트(36)와, 스프링(37)이 설치되어 있고, 상기 플레이트(36)는 흡입 부압력이 상기 스프링(37)의 인장력 이상으로 커지면 상기 스프링(37)의 인장력을 극복하고 이동하여 배기가스 출구를 막도록 되어 있다.The first pressure reducing chamber 31 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 32, 33, 34 for bending the flow path of the exhaust gas. In addition, the second pressure reducing chamber 35 is provided with a plate 36 and a spring 37. When the suction negative pressure becomes greater than the tensile force of the spring 37, the spring ( It overcomes the tension of 37) and moves to block the exhaust gas outlet.

상기와 같이 구성된 본 발명에 따른 배기가스 재순환 시스템의 작용 및 효과를 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.Referring to the operation and effect of the exhaust gas recirculation system according to the present invention configured as described above in detail as follows.

엔진(10)에서 연소되어 배출되는 배기가스는 EGR밸브(20)와 감압밸브(30) 및 스로틀바디(40)를 통해 다시 엔진(10)으로 공급된다.The exhaust gas combusted and discharged from the engine 10 is supplied to the engine 10 again through the EGR valve 20, the pressure reducing valve 30, and the throttle body 40.

이때, 상기 EGR 밸브(20)에서 빨아들이는 흡입 압력은 대략 420mmHg 정도인데, 이 압력이 바로 엔진(10)의 흡입계로 바로 전달되면 가속 쇼트등이 발생하여 엔진(10)의 운전성능을 열화시키므로, 대략 180mmHg 이하까지 감압시켜 줄 필요가 있다.At this time, the suction pressure sucked by the EGR valve 20 is about 420mmHg, and when this pressure is directly transmitted to the intake system of the engine 10, an acceleration short occurs, thereby deteriorating the driving performance of the engine 10. It is necessary to reduce the pressure to approximately 180 mmHg or less.

상기와 같이 재순환되는 배기가스의 감압은 감압밸브(30)에서 이루어지는데, 상기 감압밸브(30)의 제1감압실(31)에서는 EGR 밸브(20)를 통해 공급되는 420mmHg의 배기가스가 돌출부(32, 33, 34)에 의해 굴곡되면서 진행함과 더불어 상기 돌출부(32, 33, 34)의 저항으로 인해 280mmHg까지 감압된다.Reduction of the exhaust gas recycled as described above is performed in the pressure reducing valve 30. In the first pressure reducing chamber 31 of the pressure reducing valve 30, the exhaust gas of 420 mmHg supplied through the EGR valve 20 is projected. While being bent by 32, 33, and 34, the pressure of the protrusions 32, 33, and 34 is reduced to 280 mmHg due to the resistance.

상기와 같이 1차로 280mmHg까지 감압된 배기가스는 상기 감압밸브(30)의 제2감압실(35)에서 플레이트(36) 사이를 통과하여 출구로 배출되면서 2차로 180mmHg까지 감압된다.As described above, the exhaust gas, which has been primarily decompressed to 280 mmHg, is discharged through the second pressure reducing chamber 35 of the decompression valve 30 between the plates 36 and discharged to the outlet, and decompressed to 180 mmHg secondly.

즉, 배기가스 재순환시에 플레이트(36)는 스프링(37)의 인장력 때문에 출구를 완전히 막지는 않으면서도 출구를 좁게 만들어서 스로틀바디(40)로 공급되는 배기가스량을 적게하여 2차로 감압하게 되는 것이다.That is, during exhaust gas recirculation, the plate 36 narrows the outlet without completely blocking the outlet due to the tension of the spring 37, thereby reducing the amount of exhaust gas supplied to the throttle body 40 to reduce the secondary pressure.

그러나, 아이들 운전시에는 흡입 부압이 가장 크게 되어 650mmHg 이상으로 되므로, 상기 흡입 부압에 의해 플레이트(36)가 스프링(37)의 인장력을 극복하고 이동하여 출구를 완전히 막아줌에 따라 배기가스가 스로틀바디(40)를 통해 엔진(10)으로 공급되지 않게 되어, 아이들 운전성능을 크게 향상시킬 수 있다.However, during idle operation, the suction negative pressure becomes the largest and becomes 650 mmHg or more. As the plate negative pressure of the plate 36 moves over the tension force of the spring 37 and completely blocks the outlet, the exhaust gas is throttled. Since it is not supplied to the engine 10 through the 40, it is possible to greatly improve the idle driving performance.

이상에서 설명한 바와 같이 본 발명에 따르면, 엔진으로 재순환되는 배기가스를 감압시켜 정상적인 연소가 가능하도록 함으로써 엔진의 운전성능 특히 가속성능을 크게 향상시킬 수 있는 효과가 있다.As described above, according to the present invention, by reducing the exhaust gas recycled to the engine to enable normal combustion, the driving performance of the engine, particularly the acceleration performance, can be greatly improved.
