SOkande: Scania CV AB Branslesystem for forbranningsmotor, forbranningsmotor med ett sAdant branslesystem, fordon med ett sidant branslesystem och ett forfarande for att minska risken for driftstorningar orsakade av paraffinerat bransle i ett branslesystem UPPFINNINGENS BAKGRUND OCH KAND TEKNIK Foreliggande uppfinning avser ett brdnslesystem for en forbrdnningsmotor enligt pa- tentkravet 1. Uppfinningen avser ocksa en forbranningsmotor med ett sadant bransle- system enligt patentkravet 11, ett fordon med ett sadant brdnslesystem enligt patentkravet 12 samt ett forfarande for att minska risken for driftstorningar orsakade av paraffinerat brdnsle i ett brdnslesystem enligt patentkravet 13. APPLICATION: Scania CV AB Combustion engine fuel system, internal combustion engine with such a fuel system, vehicles with a sideline fuel system and a procedure to reduce the risk of malfunctions caused by paraffined fuel in a fuel system BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION AND KAND TECHNOLOGY The present invention relates to a fuel The invention also relates to an internal combustion engine with such a fuel system according to claim 11, a vehicle with such a fuel system according to claim 12 and a method for reducing the risk of malfunctions caused by paraffined fuel in a fuel system according to claim 13.

En forbranningsmotor, sasom en kolvmotor, vilken drivs av diesel eller bensin, är for- sedd med ett branslesystem for att transportera brdnslet fran en eller flera bransletankar till forbranningsmotorns insprutningssystem. Branslesystemet innefattar en eller flera branslepumpar, som kan drivas mekaniskt av forbrdnningsmotom eller drivas av en elmotor. Brdnslepumpama skapar ett brdnslefliide och tryck for att transportera brans- let till en ackumulator som kan vara i form av en sa kallad common rail och vidare till forbranningsmotorns insprutningssystem, vilket tillfor branslet till forbranningsmotoms forbranningsrum. Common rail kan uteslutas och brdnslesystemet kan istallet innefatta en annan form av insprutningssystem, exempelvis piezo- eller enhetsinsprutningssystem. An internal combustion engine, such as a piston engine, which is powered by diesel or petrol, is provided with a fuel system for transporting the fuel from one or more fuel tanks to the injection engine of the internal combustion engine. The fuel system comprises one or more fuel pumps, which can be driven mechanically by the internal combustion engine or driven by an electric motor. The fuel pumps create a fuel flow and pressure to transport the fuel to an accumulator which can be in the form of a so-called common rail and on to the internal combustion engine's injection system, which supplies the fuel to the internal combustion engine's combustion chamber. Common rail can be excluded and the fuel system may instead comprise another form of injection system, for example piezo or unit injection system.

Brdnslesystem innefattar dven branslefilter for filtrering av brdnslet innan det nar forbrdnningsmotorns insprutningssystcm. Forbranningsmotom och dcss insprutningssystem är kansliga for kontamineringar och kan paverkas negativt om brdnslet är allt for fororenat. Kontamineringar kan avse fasta partiklar, gas eller vdtska. Aven om branslet endast innefattar en liten mangd kontamineringar kan konsekvensen bli att forbran- ningsmotom inte kan drivas av brdnslet. Branslesystem innefattar ddrfor brdnslefilter, som bade bortfiltrerar partiklar samt separerar vatten, som forekommer i brdnslet. 2 Branslefiltret kan vara ett sa kallat insatsbranslefilter, vilket innefattar ett utbytbart filterelement, vilket är anordnat i ett filterhus. När temperaturen utomhus sjunker kan branslet, sa som diesel eller biodiesel, som forefinns i branslesystemet paraffineras. Temperaturen vid vilken branslet paraffineras beror pa branslets sammansattning och kan for ett antal olika branslesammansatningar variera mellan plus 10 grader till mi- nus 50 grader. I de fall da bransle forefinns i branslefiltrets filterhus kan paraffineringen leda till att branslefiltret igensatts, vilket medfor att bransle inte kan na forbranningsmotorn vid kallstart. Bransle som forefinns i bransleledningar kan likasa paraffineras och orsaka stopp i bransleledningarna. Det är dear onskvart att minimera ris- ken for att bransle i filterhus och bransleledningar paraffineras i kall vdderlek. Fuel system also includes fuel filters for filtering the fuel before it reaches the internal combustion engine injection system. The internal combustion engine and its injection system are susceptible to contamination and can be adversely affected if the fuel is too polluted. Contamination can refer to solid particles, gas or liquid. Even if the industry only involves a small amount of contamination, the consequence may be that the internal combustion engine cannot be driven by the fuel. Fuel systems therefore include fuel filters, which both filter out particles and separate water present in the fuel. The fuel filter can be a so-called input fuel filter, which comprises a replaceable filter element, which is arranged in a filter housing. When the temperature outside drops, the industry, such as diesel or biodiesel, which is present in the industry system, can be paraffined. The temperature at which the industry is paraffined depends on the composition of the industry and can for a number of different industry compositions vary between plus 10 degrees to minus 50 degrees. In cases where fuel is present in the filter filter of the fuel filter, the paraffination can lead to the fuel filter being clogged, which means that the fuel cannot reach the internal combustion engine during a cold start. Fuel that is present in industry lines can also be paraffined and cause blockages in the industry lines. It is dearly desirable to minimize the risk of industry in filter houses and industry lines being paraffined in cold weather.

Det är forut kant att anordna en omriktningsbar branslepump for att andra flodesriktningen i ett branslesystem och pa sa sift tomma brdnsleledningar pa bransle. It is advantageous to arrange a reversible fuel pump in order to change the direction of the river in a fuel system and in that case empty fuel lines on fuel.

I dokumentet EP-0186262 visas ett brdnslesystem for en forbranningsmotor, vilket innefattar en branslepump och en tudelad bransletank. Ndr fOrbranningsmotorn har stangts av andras branslepumpens riktning, sa att brdnsleledningarna toms pa bransle. Pa sa sat minskas risken fOr att paraffinerat brdnsle orsakar stopp i bransleledningarna. En mindre del av bransletanken innefattar en varmare och vid start av fordonet fylls fcirst den mindre delen, sa att branslet kan varmas upp innan det pumpas ut i bransle- ledningarna. Branslepumpen i dokument EP-0186262 andrar saledes alltid riktning ndr forbranningsmotorn har stangts av, oavsett om risk for paraffinering foreligger eller inte. Document EP-0186262 discloses a fuel system for an internal combustion engine, which includes a fuel pump and a two-part fuel tank. When the internal combustion engine has been shut off by the direction of the fuel pump of others, so that the fuel lines are emptied of fuel. In this way, the risk of paraffined fuel causing a stop in the industry lines is reduced. A smaller part of the fuel tank includes a heater and when starting the vehicle, the smaller part is first filled, so that the fuel can be heated before it is pumped out into the fuel lines. The fuel pump in document EP-0186262 thus always changes direction when the internal combustion engine has been switched off, regardless of whether there is a risk of paraffination or not.

Det är awn forut kant att anordna en elektriskt styrd omriktningsbar branslepump for att kunna andra flodesriktningen i ett branslesystem. It is on the verge of arranging an electrically controlled reversible fuel pump to be able to change the direction of the river in a fuel system.

I dokumentet US-2010/0031930 visas ett brdnslesystem for en forbranningsmotor, vilket innefattar en elektriskt driven branslepump, vilken forser branslesystemets in- sprutningssystem med bransle. Den elektriskt drivna branslepumpen matar i ett forsta ldge bransle fran en bransletank till motom och i ett andra ldge matar branslepumpen bransle fran brdnsletanken till en anordning for regenerering av partikelfiltret. Det for- 3 sta och det andra ldget motsvaras av olika rotationsriktningar hos den elektriskt drivna brdnslepumpen. Document US-2010/0031930 discloses a fuel system for an internal combustion engine, which includes an electrically driven fuel pump, which supplies the fuel system injection system with fuel. The electrically driven fuel pump feeds in a first fuel from a fuel tank to the engine and in a second fuel the fuel feeds fuel from the fuel tank to a particulate filter regeneration device. The first and second layers correspond to different directions of rotation of the electrically driven fuel pump.

Trots kanda losningar pa omradet finns ett behov av att vidareutveckla ett brdnslesy- stem, som minskar risken for komplikationer och driftstorningar i samband med kall vdderlek. Despite known solutions in the area, there is a need to further develop a fuel reading system, which reduces the risk of complications and operational disruptions in connection with cold weather.

SAMMANFATTNING AV UPPFINNINGEN Syftet med foreliggande uppfinning är att astadkomma ett brdnslesystem for en for- branningsmotor, som minskar risken for driftstorningar orsakade av paraffinerat brans-le. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to provide a fuel system for an internal combustion engine which reduces the risk of malfunctions caused by paraffined fuel.

Annu ett syfte med uppfinningen är att astadkomma ett branslesystem far en forbran- ningsmotor, som minskar risken for att brdnsle blir sthende hos brdnslefiltret vid kall vdderlek. Another object of the invention is to provide a fuel system with an internal combustion engine which reduces the risk of fuel sticking to the fuel filter in cold weather.

Ytterligare ett syfte med uppfinningen är att dstadkomma ett brdnslesystem for en fOrbranningsmotor, som är flexibelt och som har ett brett styrintervall. A further object of the invention is to provide a fuel system for an internal combustion engine which is flexible and has a wide control range.

Annu ett syfte med uppfinningen är att astadkomma ett branslesystem for en forbranningsmotor, som är icke-skrymmande. Another object of the invention is to provide a fuel system for an internal combustion engine which is non-bulky.

Ytterligare ett syfte med uppfinningen är att astadkomma ett brdnslesystem for for- branningsmotor, som underldttar kallstart. Another object of the invention is to provide a fuel combustion engine fuel system which facilitates cold start.

Dcssa syftcn uppnas mcd ett branslcsystem av dct inledningsvis namnda slagct, vilkcn kannetecknas av de sardrag som anges i patentkravets 1 kannetecknande del. This object is achieved by means of an industry system of the kind initially mentioned, which can be characterized by the features stated in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Dessa syften uppnas awn med en forbranningsmotor med ett sadant branslesystem enligt patentkravets 11 kannetecknande del, ett fordon med ett sadant brdnslesystem enligt patentkravets 12 kannetecknande del och ett forfarande for att minska risken for 4 driftstorningar orsakade av paraffinerat bransle i ett branslesystem enligt patentkravets 13 kannetecknande del. These objects are achieved with an internal combustion engine with such a fuel system according to the pitched part of claim 11, a vehicle with such a fuel system according to the pitched part of claim 12 and a method for reducing the risk of 4 malfunctions caused by paraffined fuel in a fuel system according to claim 13. .

Genom att anordna en elektriskt styrd omriktningsbar transferpump, i en lagtryckskrets i branslesystemet for en forbranningsmotor, sâ att bransleflodet genom forfiltret och den forsta bransleledningen kan vandas ndr risk for paraffinering av bransle har identifierats, astadkommes ett branslesystem, som minskar risken for komplikationer och driftstorningar orsakat av paraffinerat bransle. Lampligen innefattar forfiltret ett utbytbart filterelement, vilket är anordnat i ett filterhus. Foretrddesvis är transferpumpen en lagtryckspump. By arranging an electrically controlled reversible transfer pump, in a low pressure circuit in the fuel system for an internal combustion engine, so that the fuel flow through the pre-filter and the first fuel line can be reduced if the risk of paraffinization of fuel has been identified, a fuel system is created. of paraffined fuel. The lamp filter comprises a replaceable filter element, which is arranged in a filter housing. Preferably, the transfer pump is a low pressure pump.

Lampligen andras transferpumpens riktning dâ forbranningsmotorn är avstangd och risk for paraffinering av bransle foreligger. Pa sâ salt minskas risken for att paraffinerat bransle igensiitter transferfiltret eller orsakar stopp i den ffirsta bransleledningen. Igen- satt transferfilter och/eller stopp i bransleledningen medfor att bransle inte matas till den forsta bransletanken, vilket i sin tur medffir att forbranningsmotorn inte kan ffirses med bransle. Genom att tomma filterhus och bransleledning enbart dà risk for paraffinering hos branslet ffireligger undviks onodig tomning av filterhuset och bransleledningen for de fall dâ risk for paraffinering inte foreligger. Alternativt andras transfer- pumpens riktning dâ forbranningsmotorn är i drift och risk fOr paraffinering av bransle foreligger. The direction of the transfer pump is appropriate when the internal combustion engine is switched off and there is a risk of paraffining of the fuel. This salt reduces the risk of paraffined fuel clogging the transfer filter or causing a blockage in the first fuel line. A clogged transfer filter and / or stop in the industry management means that the industry is not fed to the first industry tank, which in turn means that the internal combustion engine cannot be fired with industry. By emptying the filter housing and branch line only when there is a risk of paraffining in the industry, unnecessary emptying of the filter housing and the branch line is avoided in cases where there is no risk of paraffining. Alternatively, the direction of the transfer pump when the internal combustion engine is in operation and there is a risk of paraffining of the fuel.

Lampligen är transferpumpen omriktningsbar genom att rotationsriktningen hos den till transferpumpen kopplade elektriska motom andras. The transfer pump can be redirected by changing the direction of rotation of the electric motor connected to the transfer pump.

Genom att ansluta transferpumpen till en styrenhet via en CAN-buss kan transferpumpen styras mot olika parametrar, sâ som tryck i bransleledningar, tryckfall Over branslefilter, temperaturer etc. Pa sà att astadkommes ett branslesystem, som är flexibelt, som har ett bredare styrintervall an kand teknik och som pa sa salt medger en korrekt bransletillforsel till den forsta bransletanken. By connecting the transfer pump to a control unit via a CAN bus, the transfer pump can be controlled against various parameters, such as pressure in industry lines, pressure drop across industry filters, temperatures, etc. In order to provide an industry system that is flexible, has a wider control range. technology and which on such salt allows a correct fuel supply to the first fuel tank.

FOretradesvis är en grovmaskig sil anordnad vid den ena anden av den forsta bransleledningen, belagen vid botten hos den andra bransletanken. Den grovmaskiga silen är saledes anordnad uppstroms transferpumpen och forfiltret. Den grovmaskiga silen filtrerar bort partiklar over en forutbestamd storlek och är ett filtreringsorgan som ofta utsatts for paraffinerat bransle. Preferably, a coarse mesh screen is provided at one end of the first branch line, located at the bottom of the second branch tank. The coarse mesh screen is thus arranged upstream of the transfer pump and the pre-filter. The coarse-mesh screen filters out particles over a predetermined size and is a filtering means that is often exposed to paraffined fuel.

Lampligen identifieras om risk for paraffinering av bränsle foreligger genom att mata utomhustemperaturen. Foretradesvis är en forsta temperaturgivare ansluten till styrenheten for att bestamma utomhustemperaturen hos omgivningen ddr fordonet befinner sig. Transferpumpen kan saledes foretradesvis styras, sa att dess riktning andras da utomhustemperaturen understiger ett visst temperaturgransvarde, som motsvarar den temperatur vid vilken branslet paraffineras, och darmed indikerar att risk for paraffinering av bransle foreligger. It is conveniently identified if there is a risk of paraffining of fuel by feeding the outdoor temperature. Preferably, a first temperature sensor is connected to the control unit to determine the outdoor temperature of the environment in which the vehicle is located. The transfer pump can thus preferably be controlled, so that its direction changes when the outdoor temperature falls below a certain temperature threshold value, which corresponds to the temperature at which the fuel is paraffined, and thus indicates that there is a risk of paraffining of the fuel.

Alternativt identifieras om risk for paraffinering av brdnsle foreligger genom att mata temperaturen hos forbranningsmotorn. FOretradesvis är en andra temperaturgivare ansluten till styrenheten for att bestamma temperaturen hos forbranningsmotorn. Lampligen bestams detta genom att mata temperaturen hos forbranningsmotorns kylarvatska. Temperaturen hos forbranningsmotorn/kylarvatskan kan indikera om risk for paraffi- nering av bransle fOreligger. Transferpumpen kan saledes foretrddesvis styras, sà att dess riktning andras dâ forbranningsmotorns temperatur understiger ett visst temperaturgransvarde, som motsvarar den temperatur vid vilken branslet paraffineras, och armed indikerar att risk for paraffinering av brdnsle foreligger. Alternatively, it is identified whether there is a risk of paraffining of fuel by feeding the temperature of the internal combustion engine. Preferably, a second temperature sensor is connected to the control unit to determine the temperature of the internal combustion engine. This is conveniently determined by feeding the temperature of the internal combustion engine coolant. The temperature of the internal combustion engine / coolant can indicate whether there is a risk of paraffining of the fuel. The transfer pump can thus preferably be controlled so that its direction changes when the temperature of the internal combustion engine is below a certain temperature threshold value, which corresponds to the temperature at which the fuel is paraffined, and armed indicates that there is a risk of paraffining of fuel.

Alternativt identifieras om risk for paraffinering av brdnsle foreligger genom att be- stamma tryckfallet over forfiltret. Foretradesvis är en forsta tryckgivare anordnad uppstroms forfiltret och en andra tryckgivarc anordnad nedstroms forfiltret. Med dcssa tryckgivare kan tryckfall over forfiltret bestammas, vilket kan indikera ndr forfiltret borjar bli igensatt. Igensattning av forfiltret kan bero pa helt eller delvis paraffinerat bransle och darmed kan tryckfallet over forfiltret indikera om risk for paraffinering foreligger. Transferpumpen kan lampligen styras, sâ att dess riktning andras da tryckfallet Over forfiltret overstiger ett visst tryckfallsgransvarde och clamed indikerar att 6 risk air paraffinering av brdnsle foreligger. Tryckgivarna är ldmpligen differentialtryckgivare och är anslutna till styrenheten. Tryckgivarna avldses foretradesvis nar forbranningsmotorn är i drift. Alternatively, it is identified whether there is a risk of paraffining of fuel by determining the pressure drop across the pre-filter. Preferably, a first pressure sensor is arranged upstream of the pre-filter and a second pressure sensor is arranged downstream of the pre-filter. With these pressure sensors, the pressure drop across the pre-filter can be determined, which can indicate when the pre-filter starts to become clogged. Clogging of the pre-filter may be due to wholly or partly paraffined industry and thus the pressure drop across the pre-filter may indicate whether there is a risk of paraffining. The transfer pump can be suitably controlled so that its direction changes as the pressure drop across the pre-filter exceeds a certain pressure drop threshold value and clamed indicates that there is a 6 risk air paraffinization of fuel. The pressure sensors are typically differential pressure sensors and are connected to the control unit. The pressure sensors are preferably de-energized when the internal combustion engine is in operation.

Igensattning av forfiltret kan orsakas av paraffinering men kan likasa bero pA forore- ningar i brdnslet. For att kunna avgora om risk for paraffinering foreligger kombineras foretradesvis det identifierade tryckfallet med utomhustemperaturen och/eller forbranningsmotorns temperatur. Transferpumpen kan saledes foretradesvis styras, sA att dess riktning andras dA tryckfallet Over forfiltret overstiger ett visst tryckfallsgransvarde samtidigt som utomhustemperaturen och/eller forbranningsmotoms temperatur under- stiger ett visst temperaturgransvarde och darmed indikerar att risk for paraffinering av bransle foreligger. Clogging of the pre-filter can be caused by paraffining but can also be due to contaminants in the fuel. In order to be able to determine whether there is a risk of paraffining, the identified pressure drop is preferably combined with the outdoor temperature and / or the temperature of the internal combustion engine. The transfer pump can thus preferably be controlled so that its direction changes when the pressure drop across the pre-filter exceeds a certain pressure drop threshold while the outdoor temperature and / or the temperature of the internal combustion engine falls below a certain temperature threshold and thus indicates that there is a risk of paraffining of fuel.

Altemativt identifieras om risk fOr paraffinering av bransle foreligger genom att fast- stalla forhallandet mellan transferpumpens arbete och brdnsleflodet hos den forsta bransleledningen. Ldmpligen är en flodesmdtare anordnad hos den forsta bransleledningen, vilken flodesmdtare är ansluten till styrenheten via CAN-bussen. Stromforbrukningen hos den transferpumpen drivande elmotom mats med hjalp av styrenheten, vilket indikerar hur hart transferpumpen arbetar. Alternativt mats, med hjdlp av styren- heten, effektuttaget hos den transferpumpen drivande elmotom. En viss stromforbruk- ning eller ett visst effektuttag hos elmotom motsvarar normalt sett ett visst bransleflode hos den forsta bransleledningen. Saledes innebar en okad stromforbrukning eller ett okat effektuttag att bransleflodet hos den forsta brdnsleledningen okar. Skulle dock styrenheten identifiera en okad stromforbrukning eller ett okat effektuttag samtidigt som bransleflodet hos den forsta brdnsleledningen är oforandrat, kan slutsatsen dras att forfiltret och/eller den grovmaskiga silen troligtvis är igensatta och clamed minskar bransleflodet gcnom den forsta branslcicdningen. Igensattningen kan bcro pa hclt eller delvis paraffinerat brdnsle och clamed kan forhallandet mellan transferpumpens arbete och brdnsleflodet i den forsta brdnsleledningen indikera att risk for paraffinering av bransle foreligger. Transferpumpen kan ldmpligen styras, sA att dess riktning andras dA forhallandet mellan transferpumpens arbete och brdnsleflodet hos den forsta bransleledningen indikerar att forfiltret och/eller den grovmaskiga silen är igensatta. Strom- 7 forbrukning och/eller effektuttag samt bransleflode hos den forsta bransleledningen avlases foretradesvis nar forbranningsmotorn är i drift. Foretradesvis är flodesmataren anordnad uppstroms transferpumpen och nedstroms den grovmaskiga silen. Alternativt är flodesmataren anordnad nedstroms forfiltret. Alternatively, it is identified whether there is a risk of paraffining of the industry by establishing the relationship between the work of the transfer pump and the fuel flow at the first industry management. Typically, a river meter is provided at the first branch line, which river meter is connected to the control unit via the CAN bus. The power consumption of the transfer motor driving the electric pump is measured with the help of the control unit, which indicates how hard the transfer pump works. Alternatively, with the help of the control unit, the power take-off of the electric motor driving the transfer pump is fed. A certain power consumption or a certain power consumption of the electric motor normally corresponds to a certain fuel flow in the first fuel line. Thus, an increased power consumption or an increased power output meant that the fuel flow of the first fuel line increased. However, should the control unit identify an increased power consumption or an increased power consumption while the fuel flow at the first fuel line is unchanged, it can be concluded that the pre-filter and / or the coarse mesh screen are probably clogged and clamed reduces the fuel flow through the first fuel line. The clogging may occur on wholly or partially paraffined fuel and clamed, the relationship between the operation of the transfer pump and the fuel flow in the first fuel line may indicate that there is a risk of paraffining of fuel. The transfer pump can of course be controlled so that its direction changes when the relationship between the operation of the transfer pump and the fuel flow of the first branch line indicates that the pre-filter and / or the coarse mesh screen are clogged. Power consumption and / or power consumption as well as fuel flow on the first fuel line are preferably discharged when the internal combustion engine is in operation. Preferably, the river feeder is arranged upstream of the transfer pump and downstream of the coarse mesh screen. Alternatively, the river feeder is arranged downstream of the pre-filter.

Igensattning av forfiltret och/eller den grovmaskiga silen kan orsakas av paraffinerat bransle men kan likasa bero pa fororeningar i branslet. I syfte att avgora om risk for paraffinering foreligger kombineras foretradesvis det identifierade forhallandet mellan transferpumpens arbete och bransleflodet hos den forsta bransleledningen med utom- hustemperaturen och/eller forbranningsmotorns temperatur. Transferpumpen kan fore- tradesvis styras, sâ att dess riktning andras da forhallandet mellan transferpumpens arbete och bransleflodet hos den forsta bransleledningen indikerar att forfiltret och/eller den grovmaskiga silen är igensatt, samtidigt som utomhustemperaturen och/eller forbranningsmotorns temperatur understiger ett visst temperaturgransvarde. Clogging of the pre-filter and / or the coarse-mesh screen can be caused by paraffined fuel but can also be due to contaminants in the industry. In order to determine whether there is a risk of paraffining, the identified ratio between the operation of the transfer pump and the fuel flow of the first fuel line is preferably combined with the outdoor temperature and / or the temperature of the internal combustion engine. The transfer pump can preferably be controlled so that its direction changes as the ratio between the operation of the transfer pump and the fuel flow of the first fuel line indicates that the pre-filter and / or the coarse mesh screen are clogged, while the outdoor temperature and / or internal combustion engine temperature is below a certain temperature limit value.

Alternativt identifieras om risk for paraffinering av bransle foreligger genom att kombinera nagra av eller samtliga ovan namnda att. Exempelvis kan bade utomhustemperaturen, temperaturen hos forbranningsmotorn, tryckfallet over forfiltret och fOrhaftandet mellan transferpumpens arbete och bransleflodet i den forsta bransleledningen an- vandas for att avgara om risk ficir paraffinering av bransle foreligger. Alternatively, it is identified whether there is a risk of paraffining of the industry by combining some or all of the above-mentioned att. For example, both the outdoor temperature, the temperature of the internal combustion engine, the pressure drop across the pre-filter and the arrest between the operation of the transfer pump and the fuel flow in the first fuel line can be used to determine if there is any risk of paraffinizing the fuel.

Foretradesvis avlases den forsta och/eller den andra temperaturgivaren nar forbranningsmotorn är i drift for att avgora om risk for paraffinering av bransle foreligger. Preferably, the first and / or second temperature sensor is read when the internal combustion engine is in operation to determine if there is a risk of paraffining of the fuel.

Lampligen Ors avlasningen under drift specifikt da byte av temperaturzon sker. Lampligen Ors the unloading during operation specifically when changing the temperature zone takes place.

Alternativt avlases den forsta och/eller den andra temperaturgivaren da forbranningsmotorn är avstangd och fordonct är stillasfaende. Alternatively, the first and / or the second temperature sensor is read when the internal combustion engine is switched off and the vehicle is stationary.

Alternativt sker avlasning av den forsta och/eller den andra temperaturgivaren bade 6. forbranningsmotorn är i drift och da forbranningsmotorn är avstangd och fordonet är stillastaende. 8 FOretradesvis är en ventil anordnad hos den forsta bransleledningen nedstroms forfiltret. Ventilen är normalt styrd till ett forsta lage, vilket medfor aft den forsta bransleledningen star i forbindelse med den forsta bransletanken. Ventilen kan vidare styras till ett andra 'age, vilket medfor att den forsta bransleledningen star i forbindelse med branslesystemet omgivande luft. Lampligen star den forsta bransleledningen i Forbin- delse med omgivande luft via ett luftfilter. Ventilen är foretradesvis ansluten till styrenheten via CAN-bussen. Alternatively, unloading of the first and / or the second temperature sensor both 6. the internal combustion engine is in operation and when the internal combustion engine is switched off and the vehicle is stationary. Preferably, a valve is provided at the first fuel line downstream of the pre-filter. The valve is normally controlled to a first layer, which means that the first branch line is connected to the first branch tank. The valve can further be controlled to a second 'age, which means that the first branch line is connected to the ambient air of the branch system. The first industry line is located in connection with ambient air via an air filter. The valve is preferably connected to the control unit via the CAN bus.

Lampligen styrs ventilen till sitt andra lage nar det liar identifierats att risk for paraffi- nering av bransle foreligger. Nar transferpumpens riktning sedan andras suger trans- ferpumpen pa sa satt luft genom den forsta bransleledningen och bransle som forefinns i den forsta bransleledningen samt hos forfiltret matas till den andra bransletanken. Branslet matas pa sâ satt genom den grovmaskiga silen, vilken damned frigors fran igensattande partiklar. Darmed minskas risken far driftstorningar orsakade av paraffi- nerat bransle. The valve is conveniently controlled to its second layer when it has been identified that there is a risk of paraffining of the fuel. When the direction of the transfer pump is different from others, the transfer pump then sucks air through the first branch line and fuel that is present in the first branch line and at the pre-filter is fed to the second branch tank. The fuel is fed in this way through the coarse-mesh screen, which is then freed from clogging particles. This reduces the risk of operational disruptions caused by paraffined industry.

Alternativt bibehalls ventilens forsta lage nar det har identifierats att risk for paraffinering av bransle foreligger. Nar transferpumpens riktning sedan andras suger transferpumpen bransle frail den forsta bransletanken vidare genom forfiltret och matar sedan branslet genom den grovmaskiga silen i den andra bransletanken. Lampligen anordnas en branslereturledning i anslutning till den forsta bransletanken och branslesystemets hogtryckssystem. Trycksatt varmt bransle kan pa sa satt returneras tillbaka till den forsta bransletanken istallet for att transporteras till forbranningsmotorns forbranningsrum. Branslet i den forsta bransletanken är saledes varmare an branslet i den andra bransletanken nar forbranningsmotorn är i drift. Det varma branslet kan claimed losa upp eventuellt paraffinerat bransle som forefinns hos den forsta bransleledningen, hos forfiltret och i den grovmaskiga silen nar transferpumpens riktning andras. Foretradesvis styrs ventilen darefter till sitt andra lage, sâ att den forsta bransleledningen och forfiltret toms pa bransle och den forsta bransletanken bibehaller en pa forhand bestamd bransleniva. 9 Alternativt är den forsta bransleledningen sa anordnad att den i ena anden mynnar ut i den forsta brdnsletankens ovre del, ovanfor brdnsleytan. Pa sâ satt star den forsta bransleledningen i forbindelse med tuft som forefinns hos den forsta brdnsletanken. När det har identifierats att risk for paraffinering av brdnsle foreligger och transfer- pumpens riktning andras, suger transferpumpen luft fran den forsta bransletanken ge- nom den forsta bransleledningen och pa s'a satt toms den forsta brdnsleledningen och forfiltret pa bransle. Branslet som forefinns i den forsta bransleledningen och forfiltret trycks genom den grovmaskiga silen, vilken pa s'a satt frigors fran igensattande partiklar. Damned minskas risken for driftstorningar orsakade av paraffinerat bransle. Alternatively, the first layer of the valve is maintained when it has been identified that there is a risk of paraffining of the industry. When the transfer pump's direction is then different, the transfer pump sucks frail the first fuel tank further through the pre-filter and then feeds the fuel through the coarse mesh screen in the second fuel tank. An industry return line is conveniently arranged in connection with the first industry tank and the industry system's high pressure system. Pressurized hot fuel can thus be returned to the first fuel tank instead of being transported to the combustion engine's combustion chamber. The fuel in the first fuel tank is thus hotter than the fuel in the second fuel tank when the internal combustion engine is in operation. The hot fuel can claimed to dissolve any paraffined fuel that is present in the first fuel line, in the pre-filter and in the coarse-mesh screen when the transfer pump is in the direction of others. Preferably, the valve is then controlled to its second position, so that the first fuel line and pre-filter are emptied of fuel and the first fuel tank maintains a predetermined industry level. 9 Alternatively, the first fuel line is arranged so that in one breath it opens into the upper part of the first fuel tank, above the fuel surface. In this way, the first fuel line is connected to the site at the first fuel tank. When it has been identified that there is a risk of paraffining of fuel and the direction of the transfer pump changes, the transfer pump sucks air from the first fuel tank through the first fuel line and then empties the first fuel line and pre-filter on fuel. The fuel present in the first fuel line and the pre-filter is forced through the coarse-mesh screen, which is then released from clogging particles. Damned reduces the risk of operational disruptions caused by paraffined fuel.

Foretrddesvis andras transferpumpens riktning ndr risk for paraffinering av brdnsle har identifierats och forbranningsmotorn är avstangd. Alternativt andras transferpumpen riktning ndr risk for paraffinering av bransle har identifierats och forbranningsmotorn i drift. Preferably the direction of the transfer pump of others as the risk of paraffining of fuel has been identified and the internal combustion engine is switched off. Alternatively, the other person's transfer pump direction ndr risk of paraffining of industry has been identified and the combustion engine in operation.

Lampligen är den forsta bransletanken sâ utformad att den rymmer en mindre volym an den andra bransletanken. Denna utformning medger en mindre skrymmande forsta bransletank, som är lattare att anordna hos ett utrymmessnalt chassi. Pa sâ sat astadkommes ett icke-skrymmande branslesystem. Vidare innebar en mindre forsta bransle- tank att branslesystemet kan mata bra:lisle till forbrdnningsmotorn vid en ldgre bransle- niva an om samma brdnslevolym hade tillforts den stone andra brdnsletanken. Pa sa sat astadkommes ett brdnslesystem for en forbranningsmotor, som medger en flexibel reglering av bransletillforseln och armed undviks driftstorningar vid lag bransleniva i bransletanken. Foretradelsevis rymmer den forsta brdnsletanken 20-50 liter och den andra brdnsletanken 300-1000 liter. The first fuel tank is designed so that it holds a smaller volume than the second fuel tank. This design allows for a less bulky first fuel tank, which is easier to arrange in a space-efficient chassis. In this way, a non-bulky industry system is achieved. Furthermore, a smaller first fuel tank meant that the fuel system could feed well: lisle to the internal combustion engine at a lower fuel level than if the same fuel volume had been added to the second fuel tank. In this way, a fuel system for an internal combustion engine is provided, which allows flexible regulation of the fuel supply and armed avoidance of operational disruptions at low industry levels in the fuel tank. Preferably, the first fuel tank holds 20-50 liters and the second fuel tank 300-1000 liters.

Foretrddesvis är huvudmatarpumpen en lagtryckspump, vilken drivs av en andra elektrisk motor. Ldmpligen är awn huvudmatarpumpen omriktningsbar. Pa sa sift astadkommes en mer effektiv och flexibel reglering av bransletillforseln till forbrannings30 motorn. Preferably, the main feed pump is a low pressure pump, which is driven by a second electric motor. Of course, the main feed pump is adjustable. In this way, a more efficient and flexible regulation of the fuel supply to the internal combustion engine is achieved.

Lampligen är huvudmatarpumpen anordnad hos den fOrsta bransletanken. Pa sà satt skyddas huvudmatarpumpen fran omgivningen och far en naturlig kylning av branslet i den fOrsta bransletanken. Alternativt är aven transferpumpen och forfiltret anordnade inuti den fOrsta bransletanken. Med huvudmatarpumpen, transferpumpen, forfiltret och ventilen anordnade inuti den fOrsta bransletanken astadkommes ett icke-skrymmande branslesystem. The main feed pump is conveniently arranged at the first fuel tank. In this way, the main feed pump is protected from the environment and receives a natural cooling of the fuel in the first fuel tank. Alternatively, the transfer pump and the pre-filter are also arranged inside the first fuel tank. With the main feed pump, the transfer pump, the pre-filter and the valve arranged inside the first fuel tank, a non-bulky fuel system is achieved.

Foretradesvis innefattar den forsta bransletanken en nivasensor for att bestamma branslenivan i den fOrsta bransletanken. Lampligen är en overstromningsledning anordnad i forbindelse med den forsta bransletanken och den andra bransletanken. Nar den med nivasensorn bestamda branslenivan i den forsta bransletanken overskrider ett forutbestamt nivagransvarde leds bransle fran den forsta bransletanken via overstromningsledningen till den andra bransletanken. Lampligen är overstromningsledningen anordnad i anslutning till den fOrsta bransletankens ovansida samt den andra bransletankens ovansida. Alternativt kan overstromningsledningen vara anordnad i anslutning till den fOrsta bransletankens botten. Preferably, the first fuel tank includes a level sensor for determining the fuel level in the first fuel tank. Lamply, a flood line is arranged in connection with the first fuel tank and the second fuel tank. When the level of fuel in the first fuel tank determined by the level sensor exceeds a predetermined level equivalent, the branch is led from the first fuel tank via the overflow line to the second fuel tank. Lamply, the flood line is arranged in connection with the upper side of the first fuel tank and the upper side of the second fuel tank. Alternatively, the overflow line may be arranged in connection with the bottom of the first fuel tank.

Lampligen styrs transferpumpen att mata bransle fran den andra bransletanken till den fOrsta bransletanken nar den med nivasensorn bestamda branslenivan i den forsta bransletanken understiger ett fbrutbestamt varde. The transfer pump is suitably controlled to feed fuel from the second fuel tank to the first fuel tank when the fuel level determined with the level sensor in the first fuel tank is below a predetermined value.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF AN EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Fig. 1 shows a schematic side view of a vehicle 1, which vehicle comprises a fuel system 4 for an internal combustion engine 2 according to the present invention. The internal combustion engine 2 is connected to a gearbox 6, which is connected to the drive wheel 8 of the vehicle 1 via a transmission. The vehicle also includes a chassis 10.

Fig. 2 visar ett kopplingsschema for ett branslesystem 4 for en fOrbranningsmotor 2 enligt foreliggande uppfinning Branslesystemet 4 innefattar flertalet komponenter, varav ett huvudbranslefilter 12, en hOgtryckspump 14, en ackumulator i form av en sà kallad common rail 16 samt ett insprutningssystem 18 schematiskt visat i form av en bransleinsprutare, är anordnade hos forbranningsmotorn 2 (forbranningsmotorn 2 visas i fig. 1). Alternativt kan common rail 16 ersattas av en annan form av insprutningssystem 18, exempelvis piezo- eller enhetsinsprutningssystem. Hogtryckspumpen 14, common rail 16 och insprutningssystemet 18 utgor komponenter i branslesystemets 4 hogtryckssystem 19. Branslesystemet 4 innefattar aven en forsta bransletank 20, en andra bransletank 22, en tredje bransletank 24, en huvudmatarpump 26, en transfer-pump 28 samt ett fOrfilter 30. Dessa komponenter kan vara anordnade vid fordonets chassi 10 (chassi 10 visas i fig. 1). Huvudbranslefiltret 12 är anordnat nedstroms hu- vudmatarpumpen 26 och uppstroms hogtryckspumpen 14 i branslesystemet 4. Vidare innefattar branslesystemet 4 en branslereturledning 13, genom vilken trycksatt varmt 12 bransle returneras fran branslesystemets 4 hOgtryckssystem 19 tillbaka till den forsta bransletanken 20. Fig. 2 shows a circuit diagram of a fuel system 4 for an internal combustion engine 2 according to the present invention. The fuel system 4 comprises several components, of which a main fuel filter 12, a high-pressure pump 14, an accumulator in the form of a so-called common rail 16 and an injection system 18 are shown schematically in in the form of a fuel injector, are arranged on the internal combustion engine 2 (the internal combustion engine 2 is shown in Fig. 1). Alternatively, common rail 16 may be replaced by another form of injection system 18, for example piezo or unit injection systems. The high pressure pump 14, common rail 16 and the injection system 18 form components of the high pressure system 4 of the fuel system 4. The fuel system 4 also comprises a first fuel tank 20, a second fuel tank 22, a third fuel tank 24, a main feed pump 26, a transfer pump 28 and a pre-filter 30. These components can be arranged at the chassis 10 of the vehicle (chassis 10 is shown in Fig. 1). The main fuel filter 12 is arranged downstream of the main feed pump 26 and upstream of the high pressure pump 14 in the fuel system 4. Furthermore, the fuel system 4 comprises a fuel return line 13, through which pressurized hot 12 fuel is returned from the fuel system 4 high pressure system 19 back to the first fuel tank 20.

Samtliga tre tankar 20, 22, 24 är i sina respektive ovre delar forbundna med en ventila- tionsledning 50 vilken via ett luftfilter 51 kommunicerar med omgivningen. Ventila- tionsledningen 50 sakerstaller att trycket i respektive tank 20, 22, 24 är och forblir vdsentligen detsamma, och lika med, omgivningens luftryck oberoende av hur mycket bransle som finns i respektive tank. Luftfiltret 51 forhindrar att fororeningar i omgivande luft tranger in i ventilationsledningen 50 i samband med ventilering av tankarna. All three tanks 20, 22, 24 are in their respective upper parts connected to a ventilation line 50 which communicates with the environment via an air filter 51. The ventilation line 50 states that the pressure in each tank 20, 22, 24 is and remains essentially the same, and equal to, the ambient air pressure regardless of how much fuel is present in each tank. The air filter 51 prevents pollutants in the ambient air from penetrating into the ventilation duct 50 in connection with the ventilation of the tanks.

Den forsta bransletanken 20 är sâ utformad att den rymmer en mindre volym an den andra bransletanken 22 och den tredje bransletanken 24. Den andra bransletanken 22 och den tredje bransletanken 24 motsvarar huvudbransletankar och rymmer vasentligen samma volym och har ett sjalvreglerade flOde mellan varandra genom ett forbin- delseror 34 anordnat mellan den nedre delen hos den andra bransletanken 22 och den tredje bransletanken 24. Transferpumpen 28 är omriktningsbar och enligt fig. 2 anordnad mellan den forsta bransletanken 20 och den andra bransletanken 22. Transferpumpen 28 drivs av en forsta elektrisk motor M1 och har som huvuduppgift att mata brans-le fran den andra bransletanken 22 till den forsta bransletanken 20 via en forsta brans- leledning 36. Huvudmatarpumpen 26 drivs av en andra elektrisk motor M2 och är an- ordnad inuti den forsta bransletanken 20 och skyddas pa sâ satt frail omgivningen och kyls av branslet. Mellan den forsta bransletanken 20 och den andra bransletanken 22 är en overstromningsledning 38 anordnad, sa att bransle kan transporteras over fran den forsta bransletanken 20 till den andra bransletanken 22 om den forsta bransletanken blir overfylld. Huvudmatarpumpen 26 har som huvuduppgift att mata branslet frail den forsta bransletanken 20 via en andra bransleledning 40 genom huvudbranslefiltret 12 och vidarc till hogtryckssystemet 19. Mcd hogt tryck matas sedan branslet till common rail 16 och vidare till insprutningssystemet 18. Huvudmatarpumpen 26 och transferpumpen 28 är styrda av en styrenhet 42 via en CAN-buss 44. The first fuel tank 20 is designed to hold a smaller volume than the second fuel tank 22 and the third fuel tank 24. The second fuel tank 22 and the third fuel tank 24 correspond to main fuel tanks and hold substantially the same volume and have a self-regulated flow between each other through a connection sub-rows 34 arranged between the lower part of the second fuel tank 22 and the third fuel tank 24. The transfer pump 28 is adjustable and according to Fig. 2 arranged between the first fuel tank 20 and the second fuel tank 22. The transfer pump 28 is driven by a first electric motor M1 and has as its main task to supply fuel from the second fuel tank 22 to the first fuel tank 20 via a first fuel line 36. The main feed pump 26 is driven by a second electric motor M2 and is arranged inside the first fuel tank 20 and is thus protected. frail the environment and cooled by the industry. Between the first fuel tank 20 and the second fuel tank 22 an overflow line 38 is arranged, so that fuel can be transported over from the first fuel tank 20 to the second fuel tank 22 if the first fuel tank becomes overfilled. The main task of the main feed pump 26 is to feed the fuel from the first fuel tank 20 via a second fuel line 40 through the main fuel filter 12 and further to the high pressure system 19. The high pressure is then fed to the fuel to the common rail 16 and on to the injection system 18. The main feed pump 26 and the transfer pump 28 are of a control unit 42 via a CAN bus 44.

Forfiltret 30 är anordnat nedstroms transferpumpen 28 och är foretradelsevis ett finmaskigt, vattenavskiljande filter. Vid den ena anden av den forsta bransleledningen 36, 13 belagen hos den andra bransletanken 22, är en grovmaskig Si! 52 anordnad. Den grovmaskiga silen 52 är saledes anordnad uppstroms transferpumpen 28, vilket medfor att transferpumpen 28 suger bransle igenom den grovmaskiga silen 52. Den grovmaskiga silen 52 filtrerar bort partiklar over en forutbestdmd storlek. Transferpumpen 28 tryck- sdtter ddrefter branslet och matar det igenom forfiltret 30, via den forsta bransleled- ningen 36, vidare till den forsta bransletanken 20. Branslet i den forsta bransletanken 20 har pa sâ salt passerat bade en grovmaskig sil 52 och ett finmaskigt forfilter 30, vilket medfor att huvudmatarpumpen 26, som är anordnad i den forsta bransletanken 20 är skyddad mot fororeningar. Genom att anordna forfiltret 30 nedstroms transfer- pumpen 28 trycks branslet igenom forfiltret 30, vilket medger att branslet lattare passe- rar forfiltret 30 och forfiltret 30 Riper pa sâ att mindre risk att igensatas. The pre-filter 30 is arranged downstream of the transfer pump 28 and is preferably a fine-mesh, water-separating filter. At one end of the first branch line 36, 13 located at the second branch tank 22, a coarse-mesh Si! 52 arranged. The coarse mesh screen 52 is thus arranged upstream of the transfer pump 28, which means that the transfer pump 28 sucks fuel through the coarse mesh screen 52. The coarse mesh screen 52 filters out particles over a predetermined size. The transfer pump 28 then pressurizes the fuel and feeds it through the pre-filter 30, via the first fuel line 36, on to the first fuel tank 20. The fuel in the first fuel tank 20 has then passed both a coarse mesh screen 52 and a fine mesh pre-filter 30. , which means that the main feed pump 26, which is arranged in the first fuel tank 20, is protected against contamination. By arranging the pre-filter 30 downstream of the transfer pump 28, the fuel is pushed through the pre-filter 30, which allows the industry to pass the pre-filter 30 and the pre-filter 30 more easily so that there is less risk of clogging.

I den forsta bransletanken 20 är en forsta nivasensor 46 anordnad for att identifiera briinslenivan i den forsta bransletanken 20. Nar den med nivasensom 46 bestamda branslenivan i den forsta bransletanken 20 understiger ett forutbestamt nivagransvarde styrs transferpumpen 28 att mata bransle fran den andra bransletanken 22 till den forsta bransletanken 20. En andra nivasensor 48 är anordnad i den andra bransletanken 22 for att identifiera branslenivan i den andra bransletanken 22. Den forsta nivasensom 46 och den andra nivasensorn 48 är anslutna till CAN-bussen 44 och styrenheten 42, som styr transferpumpen 28 och huvudmatarpumpen 26. In the first fuel tank 20, a first level sensor 46 is arranged to identify the fuel level in the first fuel tank 20. When the fuel level determined by the level sensor 46 in the first fuel tank 20 is below a predetermined level equivalent, the transfer pump 28 is controlled to supply fuel from the second fuel tank 22 to the first fuel tank 20. A second level sensor 48 is provided in the second fuel tank 22 to identify the fuel level in the second fuel tank 22. The first level sensor 46 and the second level sensor 48 are connected to the CAN bus 44 and the control unit 42, which control the transfer pump 28 and main feed pump 26.

Vidare är en forsta temperaturgivare 60 ansluten till styrenheten 42. Den forsta temperaturgivaren 60 forser styrenheten 42 med utomhustemperatur hos omgivningen i vilken fordonet 1 (visad i Fig. 1) befinner sig. En lag utomhustemperatur kan indikera att risk for paraffinering av bransle foreligger. Furthermore, a first temperature sensor 60 is connected to the control unit 42. The first temperature sensor 60 provides the control unit 42 with outdoor temperature of the environment in which the vehicle 1 (shown in Fig. 1) is located. A low outdoor temperature may indicate that there is a risk of paraffining of the industry.

En andra temperaturgivare 62 är likasa ansluten till styrenheten 42 for att forse styrenheten 42 med temperaturen hos forbranningsmotorn 2 (visad i Fig. 1). En lag temperatur hos forbranningsmotorn 2 kan indikera att risk for paraffinering av bransle forelig- ger. 14 En ventil 70 är anordnad nedstroms forfiltret 30 i anslutning till den fOrsta bransleledningen 36. Ventilen 70 är normalt styrd till ett forsta lage, vilket medfor att den forsta bransleledningen 36 star i forbindelse med den forsta bransletanken 20. 1 ventilens 70 andra ldge star den forsta brdnsleledningen 36 i forbindelse med branslesystemet om- givande luft via ett luft filter 71. Luftfiltret 71 forhindrar att fororeningar i omgivande luft tranger in i den forsta bransleledningen 36 i samband med styrning av ventilen 70 till dess andra läge. Ventilen är ansluten till styrenheten 42 via CAN-bussen 44. A second temperature sensor 62 is similarly connected to the control unit 42 to supply the control unit 42 with the temperature of the internal combustion engine 2 (shown in Fig. 1). A low temperature of the internal combustion engine 2 may indicate that there is a risk of paraffining of the fuel. A valve 70 is arranged downstream of the pre-filter 30 in connection with the first fuel line 36. The valve 70 is normally controlled to a first layer, which means that the first fuel line 36 is connected to the first fuel tank 20. In the second half of the valve 70 it is the first fuel line 36 in connection with the fuel system ambient air via an air filter 71. The air filter 71 prevents pollutants in the ambient air from penetrating into the first fuel line 36 in connection with controlling the valve 70 to its second position. The valve is connected to the control unit 42 via the CAN bus 44.

En till styrenheten 42 ansluten flodesmatare 72 är anordnad hos den forsta bransleled- 1 0ningen, uppstroms transferpumpen 28, for att faststalla forhallandet mellan transfer- pumpens 28 arbete och bransleflodet i den forsta bransleledningen 36. Med hjalp av styrenheten 42 kan stromforbrukningen hos den transferpumpen 28 drivande elmotom M1 bestammas Altemativt bestams, med hjalp av styrenheten 42, effektuttaget hos den transferpumpen 28 drivande elmotom Ml. StrOmforbrukningen och/eller effektut- taget indikerar hur hart transferpumpen 26 arbetar. En viss stromforbrukning eller ett visst effektuttag motsvarar ett visst bransleflOde i den forsta bransleledningen 36. Skulle styrenheten 42 identifiera en okad stromforbrukning, eller ett okat effektuttag, samtidigt som flodesmataren 72 identifierar ett vasentligen ofOrandrat bransleflOde, alternativt ett minskat bransleflode, indikeras att forfiltret 30 och/eller den grovmaskiga silen 52 är igensatt. Igensattning kan orsakas av paraffinerat bransle och clamed kan information om forhallandet mellan transferpumpens 28 arbete och bransleflodet i den forsta bransleledningen 36 anvandas for att identifiera om risk for paraffinering av bransle foreligger. A flow feeder 72 connected to the control unit 42 is provided at the first fuel line, upstream of the transfer pump 28, to determine the relationship between the operation of the transfer pump 28 and the fuel flow in the first fuel line 36. Using the control unit 42, the power consumption of the transfer pump 28 driving electric motor M1 is determined Alternatively, with the help of the control unit 42, the power outlet of the transfer pump 28 driving electric motor M1 is determined. The power consumption and / or the power outlet indicate how hard the transfer pump 26 works. A certain power consumption or a certain power output corresponds to a certain fuel flow in the first industry line 36. Should the control unit 42 identify an increased power consumption, or an increased power output, at the same time the river feeder 72 identifies a substantially unchanged fuel flow, alternatively a reduced fuel flow is indicated. / or the coarse mesh screen 52 is clogged. Clogging can be caused by paraffined fuel and clamed, information about the relationship between the operation of the transfer pump 28 and the fuel flow in the first fuel line 36 can be used to identify whether there is a risk of paraffining of fuel.

En forsta tryckgivare 74 är anordnad uppstroms fcirfiltret 30 och en andra tryckgivare 76 är anordnad nedstroms forfiltret 30. Genom att mata trycket hos bransleflodet fore och cfter forfiltrct 30 kan skillnaden i tryck, det sa kalladc tryckfallet over forfiltret 30, beraknas. Ett Mgt tryckfall innebar att trycket hos bransleflodet efter forfiltret 30 är betydligt lagre an trycket fore forfiltret 30. Ett sadant hogt tryckfall kan indikera att forfiltret 30 är igensatt och darmed forsvarar genomforseln av bransle genom forfiltret 30. Igensattning kan orsakas av paraffinerat bransle och claimed kan information om tryckfall anvandas for att identifiera om risk for paraffinering av bransle foreligger. A first pressure sensor 74 is arranged upstream of the pre-filter 30 and a second pressure sensor 76 is arranged downstream of the pre-filter 30. By supplying the pressure of the fuel flow before and after the pre-filter 30, the difference in pressure, the so-called pressure drop across the pre-filter 30, can be calculated. A high pressure drop meant that the pressure of the fuel flow after the pre-filter 30 is significantly lower than the pressure before the pre-filter 30. Such a high pressure drop can indicate that the pre-filter 30 is clogged and thus defends the passage of fuel through the pre-filter 30. Clogging can be caused by paraffined fuel. information on pressure drops is used to identify whether there is a risk of paraffining of the industry.

Den forsta och den andra tryckgivaren 74, 76 är anslutna till styrenheten 42 via CANbussen 44. The first and second pressure sensors 74, 76 are connected to the control unit 42 via the CAN bus 44.

Transferpumpen 28 är omriktningsbar genom att dess elmotor M1 kan andra rotations- riktning. Transferpumpen 28 styrs via styrenheten 42 att andra riktning da risk for paraffinering av bransle har identifierats. Ventilen 70 styrs till sitt andra lage och ndr transferpumpens 28 riktning dndras sugs pa sa satt luft via luftfiltret 71 genom den forsta bransleledningen 36. Darmed toms forfiltret 30 och den forsta bransleledningen 36 pa bransle, vilket leds till den andra bransletanken 22. Branslet fran den forsta bransleledningen 36 och forfiltret 30 trycks med transferpumpen 28 genom den grov- maskiga silen 52 hos den andra brdnsletanken 22, vilket avldgsnar eventuella igensattande partiklar. Pd sa sat minskas risken for att paraffinerat bransle orsakar stopp i den forsta brdnsleledningen 36 eller orsakar igensattning av forfiltret 30 och/eller den grovmaskiga silen 52. Altemativt bibehalls ventilens 70 fOrsta ursprungliga Page, sa att bransle sugs fran den forsta brdnsletanken 20 genom den forsta brdnsleledningen 36 och forfiltret 30 och trycks genom den grovmaskiga silen 52 nar transferpumpens 28 riktning andras. Det varma branslet i den forsta brdnsletanken 20 kan darmed losa upp eventuellt paraffinerat bransle som forefinns i den forsta bransleledningen 36, forfiltret 30 och i den grovmaskiga silen 52 ndr transferpumpens 28 riktning andras. Ventilen 70 styrs ddrefter till sitt andra lage, sa att den forsta bransleledningen 36 och forfiltret toms pa bransle samtidigt som en pa forhand bestamd bransleniva bibehalls hos den forsta brdnsletanken 20. The transfer pump 28 is adjustable in that its electric motor M1 can have a different direction of rotation. The transfer pump 28 is controlled via the control unit 42 in the other direction when the risk of paraffining of the fuel has been identified. The valve 70 is controlled to its second position and when the direction of the transfer pump 28 is changed, suction is then sucked into the air via the air filter 71 through the first fuel line 36. Thereby the pre-filter 30 and the first fuel line 36 are emptied of fuel, which is led to the second fuel tank 22. the first fuel line 36 and the pre-filter 30 are pushed with the transfer pump 28 through the coarse-mesh screen 52 of the second fuel tank 22, which removes any clogging particles. This reduces the risk that paraffined fuel will cause a blockage in the first fuel line 36 or cause clogging of the pre-filter 30 and / or the coarse-mesh screen 52. Alternatively, the first original side of the valve 70 is maintained, so that fuel is sucked from the first fuel tank 20 through the first the fuel line 36 and the pre-filter 30 and is pushed through the coarse mesh screen 52 when the direction of the transfer pump 28 is different. The hot fuel in the first fuel tank 20 can thus dissolve any paraffined fuel present in the first fuel line 36, the pre-filter 30 and in the coarse mesh screen 52 in the other direction of the transfer pump 28. The valve 70 is then controlled to its second position, so that the first fuel line 36 and the pre-filter are emptied of fuel while a predetermined fuel level is maintained at the first fuel tank 20.

Da olika sammansattningar av brdnsle (diesel eller biodiesel) paraffineras vid olika temperaturer är det svart att avgora om risk for paraffinering foreligger enbart genom att mata utomhustemperaturen. Genom att kombinera information om utomhustemperatur och/eller forbranningsmotoms 2 temperatur mcd information om igensdttningsgraden hos forfiltret 30 och/eller den grovmaskiga silen 52, astadkommes ett battre underlag for att avgora om risk for paraffinering foreligger. Information om forfiltrets 30 igensattningsgrad erhalles genom avldsning av den forsta och den andra tryckgiva- ren 74, 76 och/eller genom bestamning av farhallandet mellan transferpumpens 28 arbete och brdnsleflodet i den forsta brdnsleledningen 36, enligt beskrivning ovan. Den 16 grovmaskiga silens 52 igensattningsgrad erhalles genom bestamning av fOrhallandet mellan transferpumpens 28 arbete och bransleflodet i den forsta bransleledningen 36, enligt beskrivning ovan. Styrenheten 42 avgor om risk for paraffinering foreligger och styr transferpumpen 28 darefter. As different compositions of fuel (diesel or biodiesel) are paraffined at different temperatures, it is black to determine whether there is a risk of paraffining just by feeding the outdoor temperature. By combining information on outdoor temperature and / or the temperature of the combustion engine 2 with information on the degree of clogging of the pre-filter 30 and / or the coarse-mesh screen 52, a better basis is provided for determining whether there is a risk of paraffining. Information on the degree of clogging of the pre-filter 30 is obtained by holding the first and second pressure sensors 74, 76 and / or by determining the distance between the operation of the transfer pump 28 and the fuel flow in the first fuel line 36, as described above. The degree of clogging of the 16 coarse-mesh screen 52 is obtained by determining the ratio between the operation of the transfer pump 28 and the fuel flow in the first fuel line 36, as described above. The control unit 42 determines if there is a risk of paraffining and controls the transfer pump 28 thereafter.

Fig. 3 visar ett kopplingsschema for ett branslesystem 4 for en forbranningsmotor 2 enligt en andra utforingsform av foreliggande uppfinning. Branslesystemet 4 är identiskt med branslesystemet 4 beskrivet i Fig. 2 forutom att ventilen 70 och luftfiltret 71 saknas samt att den forsta bransleledningen 36 är sa anordnad att den i ena anden myn- nar ut i den forsta bransletankens 20 ovre del. Pa sa sift star den forsta bransleledning- en 36 i forbindelse med luft som forefinns hos den forsta bransletanken 20. Transferpumpen 28 styrs via styrenheten 42 att andra riktning da risk for paraffinering av bransle liar identifierats. Ndr transferpumpens 28 riktning andras sugs pa sa satt luft fran den forsta bransletanken 20 genom den forsta bransleledningen 36. Darmed aims forfiltret 30 och den forsta bransleledningen 36 pa bransle, vilket leds till den andra bransletanken 22. Branslet fran den forsta bransleledningen 36 och forfiltret 30 trycks med transferpumpen 28 genom den grovmaskiga silen 52 hos den andra bransletanken 22, vilket rensar den grovmaskiga silen 52 pa eventuella igensattande partiklar. Pa sa salt minskas risken for att paraffinerat bransle orsakar stopp i den forsta bransleled- ningen 36 eller orsakar igensattning av fcirfiltret 30 och den grovmaskiga silen 52. Fig. 3 shows a wiring diagram of a fuel system 4 for an internal combustion engine 2 according to a second embodiment of the present invention. The fuel system 4 is identical to the fuel system 4 described in Fig. 2 except that the valve 70 and the air filter 71 are missing and that the first fuel line 36 is arranged so that in one breath it opens into the upper part of the first fuel tank 20. At that point, the first fuel line 36 is connected to air present at the first fuel tank 20. The transfer pump 28 is controlled via the control unit 42 in the other direction when the risk of paraffining of the fuel line is identified. When the direction of the transfer pump 28 is second, air is then sucked from the first fuel tank 20 through the first fuel line 36. Thereby the pre-filter 30 and the first fuel line 36 aim at the fuel, which is led to the second fuel tank 22. The fuel from the first fuel line 36 and the pre-filter 30 is pushed with the transfer pump 28 through the coarse mesh screen 52 of the second fuel tank 22, which cleans the coarse mesh screen 52 of any clogging particles. This salt reduces the risk that paraffined fuel will cause a blockage in the first fuel line 36 or cause clogging of the pre-filter 30 and the coarse-mesh screen 52.
