- FIG. 5 is a circuit diagram showing the amplifier means and safety arrangement in accordance with this invention.
- FIG. I shows, schematically, an internal combustion engine 11, called a motor hereinafter, which is mechanically coupled to a tachometer 12 which furnishes a voltage varying as a function of the motor speed.
- the tachometer output is connected to the first input of adjustment means, whose second input is connected to the accelerometer pedal, 14.
- the adjustment means serves to furnish a adjusted second feedback signal which is supplied to amplifier means 15, at a second input of said amplifier means.
- the first input of the amplifier means receive a first feedback signal which has an amplitude depending upon the quantity of fuel injected during each cycle.
- the output of the amplifier means I5 is used to control the injection pump 16 as a function of the difference between the signals received at its first and second inputs.
- the injection pump 16 is connected to the motor both mechanically and, of course, over fuel supply pipes.
- a safety arrangement 20 is connected between the electrical output of the tachometer l2 and a third input to the amplifier means 15.
- the motor 11 drives both the tachometer I2 and the injection pump 16 either over separate shafts or a common shaft with the motor speed rr,,,,,,.
- Fuel lines 17 lead from the injection pump 16 to the individual cylinders of the motor 11.
- the exhaust gases are collected in an exhaust manifold 18 and ejected therefrom.
- the injection pump 16 supplies fuel to the motor 11 independence on the position of a control member, or control rod 19, which is controlled by the amplifier means 15 via a cylinder arrangement 21.
- the control rod 19 is connected to the piston 22 of the cylinder arrangement 21 by means of a linkage 23 which has a collar 24. Pressure is exerted against one side of the collar 24 by means of a spring 26 whose other end is connected to a fixed member 25.
- Linkage 23 is further mechanically coupled to the movable arm of a potentiometer 27, one embodiment of first feedback signal furnishing means.
- the potentiometer 27 has one terminal connected to a positive supply line 28 and the other terminal connected to the negative or ground of the supply source, namely a battery 31.
- the regulator means of the present invention comprise a pump 81 which pumps a pressure medium as for example oil, into the cylinder 21.
- the supply of the pressure medium to cylinder 1 is controlled by means of a pressure regulating valve 82, while the flow from cylinder 21 is controlled by means of a magnetic valve 83.
- the magnetic valve is connected with the output terminal of the amplifier means 15. Since the pump 81 pumps a substantially constant amount of the pressure medium per unit time, a safety device, namely an overflow valve 84 is furnished to guard against excessive pressure in the fluid conducting system.
- the fluid conducting means, or pipes 85 are arranged between the cylinder 21, the throttle 82 and the magnetic valve 83.
- FIG. 3 will be used for explanation of the functioning of the speed adjusting arrangement of this invention. Embodiments of this type of arrangement are disclosed, for example, in US. Pats. 3,425,401 and 3,407,793.
- the operation is as follows.
- FIG. 3 shows a family of characteristic curves of a diesel motor.
- the amplifying means 15, in conjunction with the throttle 82 and the magnetic valve 83 cause a strong movement of the piston 22, causing the control rod 19 of injection pump 16 to be moved to a position corresponding to fuel excess for starting. It remains in this position until the motor has reached the speed n denoted as its starting speed. This process takes place along the dashed lines labeled 33 in FIG. 3.
- the amplifying means 15, controlled by tachometer 12 via the adjustment means 13, cause an adjustment of the magnetic valve 83 and thus a movement of the piston 22.
- Spring 26 pushes rod 19 back by an amount sufficient to keep the speed above the starting speed n
- the amount of fuel injected varies depending upon whether the motor is operating under load, or whether it is free wheeling. For free wheeling, the portion of the curve labeled 34, generally known as a no load decrease" characteristic applies.
- the speed of the motor, n,,,,,,, may be increased under operator control by means of activation of the pedal 14. If a medium load is assumed and a medium speed n,,,, as desired, then the pedal 14 must be depressed sufficiently that the control arrangement 13, 15 furnishes a sufficient quantity of fuel 0,, by means of the cylinder and piston arrangement 21, 22, the control rod 19 and the injection pump 16. In FIG. 3, this corresponds to point 35. In order to keep the speed substantially constant, more fuel is injected for increasing loads. During such increasing loads, a slight decrease of the speed may be permitted. This is shown in FIG. 2 along curve 36. For reasons of stability, the system is so arranged that the decrease in speed due to increasing load is not compensated for completely. so that a small dependence of speed upon load may be found. This dependence of speed upon load is called the governing coefficient and is represented by the slope of line 36.
- the governing coefficient depends upon the speed. If a higher speed is desired for an unchanging load, the
- the spring 26 is, at one terminal, applied to a fixed member 25. The other end of the spring pushes against the collar 24, which is integrally mounted with the linkage 23.
- the piston 22 is mounted on linkage 23.
- the cylinder 21 is connected to fluid conducting means or pipe which furnishes the pressure medium, for example oil.
- the pump 81 which is not shown in the Figure, pushes the oil through throttle 82 into the pipe 85.
- the amount of fluid flowing from the cylinder is regulated by magnetic valve 83.
- the amplifier means which are not shown in FIG. 4, control the winding 47 of the magnetic valve 83.
- FIG. 5 is a circuit diagram of the amplifier means 15 and the safety arrangement 20.
- the amplifier means comprise a differential amplifier which has a first transistor 48. To the emitter of this first transistor, is connected a first emitter resistance 49.
- the second transistor of the differential amplifier has a second emitter, to which is connected a second emitter resistance 51.
- the other terminals of the resistors 52 and 49 are connected together and are further connected to the second power supply line, the negative side, by means of a resistance 53.
- the collector of the first transistor 48 is directly connected to the first power supply line, the positive side, labeled 28 in FIG. 5.
- the collector of the transistor 50 is connected to line 28 by means of a collector resistance 54.
- the base of the first transistor 48 is connected with the movable arm of potentiometer 27, which is not shown in FIG. 5, while the base of the second transistor 50 is connected to the output of the adjustment means 13.
- Both transistors 48 and 50 constituting the differential amplifier are NPN-transistors.
- the collector of the second transistor 50 is connected to the base of an NPN-transistor 56 whose emitter is directly connected to line 28.
- This transistor and its associated circuitry form a first output stage.
- the collector of transistor 56 is connected to line 29 by means of a parallel circuit consisting of collector resistance 57 and a filter capacitor 58.
- the emitter of NPN- transistor 59 is connected via an emitter resistance 61 to line 29, while the collector is connected to line 28 by means of the activating coil 47, or electrical input element, of the magnetic valve 83.
- the limiting resistance 62 in series with the coil 47 of the magnetically controlled hydraulic valve, herein called magnetic valve for simplicity, may be dispensed with in some applications.
- a feedback resistance 54 is connected between the collector and the base of transistor 59.
- a parallel circuit consisting of a resistance 65 and a capacitor 66 is connected between the collector of transistor 59 and the base of transistor 56.
- the connection between the amplifier and the safety arrangement is furnished by a diode 68, whose anode is connected to the base of transistor 59 and whose cathode is connected to the collector of a transistor 69 which forms part of a bistable circuit included in the safety arrangement 20.
- the emitter of this transistor 69 is connected with the emitter of a second transistor 70.
- the emitters are connected over a common emitter resistance 71 to line 29.
- Both transistors 69 and 70 are NPN-transistors.
- the collector of the transistor 70 is connected to the base of transistor 59 by a parallel circuit consisting of a resistance 72 and a capacitor 73.
- the base of the first transistor 69 is connected to line 29 by means of a resistance 74.
- the collector of the first transistor 69 is connected to the positive line 28 by means of a resistance 75, while the collector of transistor 70 is connected to this line by means of collector resistance 76.
- a resistance 77 is connected between the collector of the transistor 69 and the base of transistor 70.
- the parallel circuit consisting of resistance 72 and capacitor 73, as well as the resistance 77, are the feedback elements of the bistable circuit having transistors 69 and 70.
- the base of the second transistor 70 is connected to line 28 by means of a resistance 78.
- a diode 91 has an anode connected to the base of transistor 70 and a cathode connected to the point 92. Between the point 92 and the positive line 28 is a biasing resistance 93; between the point 92 and the output of the tachometer 12 is a coupling capacitor 94.
- the pressure medium pumped by pump 81 flows through the valve 82. After the valve, within the pump 85, a substantially constant pressure exists. Because of this substantially constant pressure in the chamber of the cylinder 21, the piston 22 is pushed out of the cylinder. Of course the piston 22 is connected to the control rod 19, which is not shown here. This process is opposed by the spring power of spring 26 which tends to push the piston back into the cylinder housing 21.
- the magnetic valve 83 controls the flow of the pressure medium out of the cylinder by opening or closing in response to the control signal furnished by amplifying means 15, which are not shown in FIG. 4.
- the differential amplifier shown in FIG. 5 with transistors 48 and 50 constantly compares the desired voltage furnished by the adjustment means 13 with the voltage fed back by potentiometer 27.
- the voltage which results at the collector of the transistor 50 serves to control the magnetic valve 83 over the following amplifier stages.
- the common emitter resistor 53 of the differential amplifier may be replaced by a conventional constant current source.
- This constant current source may, for example, comprise a transistor with a fixed baseemitter voltage.
- the collector voltage of transistor 50 decreases. This causes the transistor 56 to change from a blocked to a conductive condition. This then causes the transistor 59 associated with the power output stage to assume its conductive condition.
- the collector of NPN-transistor 59 is connected with the base of transistor 56 over the feedback networks 65 and 66. This causes the amplifier stage to operate as a switch. By choice of the correct components, the difference between the switching states of the power output transistor for switching in and switching out may be kept small.
- the limiting resistance 62 serves to linearize the collector current but may be dispensed with.
- the emitter resistance 61 serves to stabilize the emitter current relative to changes in temperature and also serves to generate an emitter biasing voltage which is required for the functioning of a safety arrangement described below. Thus if the voltage furnished by adjustment means 13 increases, causing transistor 59 to become conductive, the winding 47 of the magnetic valve 83 becomes activated, closing the magnetic valve.
- the winding 47 of the magnetic valve 83 cannot be activated, so that the valve 83 opens in any case, thus decreasing the pressure in pipe 85.
- the spring 26 can push the piston 22 into the cylinder housing 21, causing an interruption of the injection of fuel into the motor and thus causing the motor to stop.
- the transistor 70 is in a conductive condition, while the transistor 69 is blocked.
- the potential at the point 92 is substantially equal to the potential at line 28, or twelve volts in the embodiment shown in FIG. 5.
- the potential at point 92 is pulled in the negative direction in synchronism with the alterations of the voltage furnished by tachometer 12.
- the amplitudes of the voltage furnished by tachometer 12 increase with increasing motor speed.
- the diode 91 begins to conduct.
- the base potential of transistor 70 becomes more negative, transistor 70 finally becomes nonconductive, causing transistor 69 to become conductive.
- the cathode potential of diode 68 now decreases substantially to the emitter potential of transistor 69. This causes diode 68 to become conductive and causes the base potential of transistor 59 in amplifier means 15 to assume a low value. Thus the base current flowing in transistor 59 no longer suffices to cause a collector current in transistor 59 of sufficient magnitude to activate the winding 47 of the magnetic valve 83. Thus the magnetic valve 83 opens. The pressure in pipe decreases. The spring pushes the piston 22 and thus the control rod 19 into a position corresponding to a zero quantity ofinjected fuel.
- a step change in collector potential of transistor 69 is fed back to the base of transistor 70 by means of resistance 77, thus furnishing an assurance against a reswitching of the bistable circuit with the following positive half-wave of the voltage furnished by tachometer 12.
- the motor becomes to a complete standstill and can only be put back into operation by means of a renewed starting procedure.
- the safety arrangement may be tested frequently, by causing the normal shutoff of the motor to be effected by it. If it is desired that the motor may not be restarted after the safety arrangement has operated, then a fusing arrangement can be furnished in the collector circuit of transistor 69 which fuse opens when the safety arrangement is activated. ln this case of course the testing of the safety arrangement in the normal shutting off of the motor must be dispensed with,
- the present invention allows the manufacturing of a simple combined electronic-hydraulic regulating arrangement.
- the electronic control of the magnetic valve is achieved preferably by means of a differential amplifier which compares the voltage furnished as a function of speed and adjusted by means of the accelerator pedal with a voltage furnished by a potentiometer whose variable arm is connected with the control rod mechanically.
- Temperature drift of the differential amplifier and therefore the temperature drift of the whole amplifying means is negligible for present function, since the output stage which furnishes the winding of the magnetic valve with current is operated in a switching type operation.
- the arrangement in accordance with this invention thus operates even under the most difficult conditions which arise in the operation of commercial vehicles very safely and with great reliability.
