Cl 123/119 A nected to the Suction system and to prsssure p 511 111:. CI.
  • This invention relates to an exhaust gas recirculation system in which a variable weak negative pressure in the suction system of an internal combustion engine is converted into a proportional strong positive pressure by a pressure amplifier so as to open or close the exhaust gas flow rate control valve in the recirculation system with said positive pressure.
  • the control valve used for controlling the recirculation rate of exhaust gas is controlled by a pressure signal, and usually a diaphragm type valve is used for the control valve because such diaphragm type valve provides a relatively large valve shaft driving force.
  • negative pressure in a venturi is utilized as a controlling signal for the control valve. This has the advantage that proper controlling of the recirculation rate of exhaust gas is provided.
  • negative pressure of a venturi is a little too weak to directly actuate the diaphragm of the control valve.
  • negative pressure amplifying mechanism has the problem that negative pressure varies frequently according to the operating condition of the engine as negative pressure in the suction pipe is used as energy source. Therefore, there is used a negative pressure storage tank for constantly obtaining negative pressure signal by amplifying the venturi negative pressure, but this still involves the problems that air could leak from the ampli fying mechanism and that the negative pressure storage tank would prove short of capacity when negative pressure in the suction pipe is weak.
  • the negative pressure storage tank in order to meet various operating conditions of the engine, the negative pressure storage tank must be of a fairly large capacity, and loading of such large capacity tank to a passenger vehicle would pose another problem.
  • the present invention provides an exhaust gas recirculation system featuring an arrangement by which the exhaust gas flow rate control valve is operated by positive pressure.
  • compressed air is introduced into a controlled pressure chamber in a pressure amplifier from a positive pressure source, and the introduced compressed air is released into the atmosphere correspondingly to pressure in said controlled pressure chamber and negative pressure in the vicinity of the venturi in the suction system.
  • a pressure amplifying mechanism producing the same effect as would be obtained when variation of negative pressure around the venturi is amplified by pressure in the controlled pressure chamber, and such pressure amplifying mechanism is used to practice positive opening and closing of the control valve provided in an exhaust gas recirculation passage. Opening of the control valve is effected by said pressure amplifier while closing of the valve is accomplished by negative pressure in the suction system. Also, the control valve is kept closed according to the operating condition of the engine.

  • a passage 52 for passing exhaust gas In the body portion 51 of said control valve 7 is provided a passage 52 for passing exhaust gas, and in said passage 52 is provided a fixed orifice 54 which is opened or closed by a valve 53.
  • a housing Disposed above said valve body 51 is a housing provided with two diaphragms 58 and 59 of different sizes defining in said housing an atmospheric pressure chamber 55, a controlled pressure chamber 56 and an atmospheric pressure chamber 57 successively in that order upwardly.

  • a spring 62 adapted for pressing the diaphragm 59 toward the controlled pressure chamber 56.
  • the opening-closing valve 53 is joined to the two diaphragms 58 and 59 by a shaft 64 which extends through a seal 63 of the valve body 51 and is arranged to open the fixed throttle 54 when a positive pressure is introduced into the controlled pressure chamber 56 from a pressure amplifier 11 which is described later.
  • the control valve 7 may also be arranged such that the opening-closing valve 53 is provided upstream of the fixed orifice 54 and the controlled pressure chamber 56 is defined by one diaphragm 65 and housing 66 so that said valve 53 will be opened or closed by the operation of said diaphragm 65, as shown in FIG. 4.
  • the presssure amplifier unit 11 is provided so that a positive pressure corresponding to negative pressure in the suction system will be supplied into the controlled pressure chamber 56 in the control valve 7.
  • a diaphragm 15 pressed by a spring 14 is provided between a housing portion 12 and another housing portion 13 of said unit 11, said both housing portions 12 and 13 being joined by bolts 16 to define a controlled pressure chamber 17 on the housing portion 12 side and an atmospheric pressure chamber 18 communicated with the atmosphere on the housing portion 13 side.
  • a conduit 20 having a orifice 19, said pipe 20 being connected to an engine-driven air pump 21 and a conduit 22 so that a positive pressure will be supplied into the controlled pressure chamber 17.
  • a pressure outlet port 23' which is communicated with an inlet port 24 of a pressure change-over valve 41 to be described later, said valve 41 being further communicated with the controlled pressure chamber 56 in the control valve 7 through a conduit 71 so that a positive pressure controlled by the pressure amplifier unit 11 will be selectively supplied to the control valve 7.
  • a hole 25 is formed in the diaphragm 15 in the pressure amplifier unit 11, and an air bleeding portion 26 is provided in said hole on its side closer to the atmospheric pressure chamber 18.
  • Said air bleeding portion 26 has a bleeding hole 27 for discharging positive pressure into the atmospheric pressure chamber 18, and a check ball 29 pressed by a spring 28 is positioned in said bleeding hole 27.
  • a housing portion 33 and a diaphragm 32 pressed by a spring 31 Disposed above and joined integral to said housing portion 13 are another housing portion 33 and a diaphragm 32 pressed by a spring 31.
  • a negative pressure chamber 35 Within defined by said diaphragm 32 and said housing portion 33 is a negative pressure chamber 35 into which negative pressure is introduced through the conduit 36 provided in the housing portion 33 which communicates with a section near the venturi of the carburetor by a conduit 37.
  • the pressing force of the spring 31 is adjusted by an adjusting screw 38 to regulate the position of the diaphragm 32.
  • the pressing force of the respective springs 14 and 31 and position of the air bleeding portion 26 are suitably regulated so that the distances of movement of said both diaphragms 15 and 32 will be equal to each other. That is, when negative pressure in the negative pressure chamber 35 of the pressure amplifier unit 11 is strong, the diaphragm 32 is raised up against the force of the spring 31 to let the stick 39 separate from the check ball 29 so that the bleeding hole 27 is closed by the check ball 29. Therefore, pressure in the controlled pressure chamber 17 is intensified by the air pump 21, causing the diaphragm 15 to rise up with the air bleeding portion 26.
  • a pressure change-over valve 41 is provided integral with the pressure amplifier unit 11 so that a controlled positive pressure in the pressure amplifier unit 11 will be selectively supplied to the control valve 7.

  • a passage 86 provided in the housing 81 is communicated with the controlled pressure chamber 56 by said conduit 71 so that said chamber 82 will be always in communication with controlled pressure chamber 56 in the control valve assembly 7.
  • a housing 91 On the side of the housing 81 opposite from the pressure amplifier unit 11 is mounted a housing 91 provided with a diaphragm 89 defining an atompsheric pressure chamber 87 and a negative pressure chamber 88, and a valve 92 adapted for selectively closing said valve seats 83 and 84 is connected to the diaphragm 89 by a shaft 93 which extends through the housing 81.

  • the negative pressure chamber 88 in the pressure change-over valve assembly 41 is connected to a part of the suction pipe 2 adjacent the throttle valve 6 through a conduit 98 provided with a solenoid valve 97.
  • a solenoid valve 97 functions to selectively supply negative pressure in the suction pipe 2 or atmospheric pressure into the negative pressure chamber 88 in the pressure change-over valve assembly 41.
  • the solenoid valve 97 comprises a magnet coil 99 and a valve body 100 actuated by said magnet coil 99 which receives a control signal from a control device 101 corresponding to the engine speed, atmospheric temperature and other factors.
  • the exhaust gas recirculation rate also conforms to the operating pattern of the engine. During this period, no negative pressure in the intake manifold 2 is introduced into the control valve 7 as the valve seat 84 is closed by the valve 92 in the pressure change-over valve assembly 41.
  • the control device 101 When the engine operation is under the conditions other than above-said, that is, when the factors such as engine speed, engine cooling water temperature, atmospheric temperature and vehicle speed are in a state where recirculation of exhaust gas is not required, the control device 101 operates to transmit a signal to the magnet coil 99 of the solenoid valve 97 to switch the solenoid valve 97 to communicate the negative pressure chamber 88 in the pressure change-over valve assembly 41 with the atmosphere, so that the valve seat 83 in said valve assembly 41 is closed by the valve 92 which is pressed by spring 95 through diaphragm 89 and shaft 93.
  • the pressure change-over valve 41 always communicates the control valve 7 and suction pipe 2, keeping the fixed orifice 54in the control valve 7 closed by the valve 53, and hence no exhaust gas is recirculated into the intake manifold 2.
  • FIGS. 5 to 7 there is shown another embodiment of the present invention.
  • This embodiment difiers from the preceding one in that the pressure amplifier unit 11 is formed integral with the control valve assembly 7 and the pressure change-over valve assembly 41 is separated therefrom.
  • the route for communication of the intake manifold 2, pressure change-over valve 41, pressure amplifier unit 11, air pump 21, control valve 7 and solenoid valve 97 is same as in the preceding embodiment.
  • Both embodiments are also identical in the manner in which negative pressure in the intake manifold 2 is amplified by the pressure amplifier unit 11 and the control valve 7 is opened by the action of the amplified positive pressure.
  • the parts which are the same as those in the preceding embodiment are assigned the same reference numerals.

  • the openingclosing valve 53 in the control valve assembly 7 is connected to a diaphragm 65' through a shaft 64 extending through seal 63 in the valve body 51 and further to a lower part of the air bleeding portion 26 so that said valve 53 will be opened and closed in accordance with the behavior of the diaphragms l5 and 32.
  • the pressure change-over valve assembly 41 is separate from the pressure amplifier unit 1 1. It has a valve 92 adapted for selectively closing the valve seats 83 and 84 and a negative pressure chamber 88 operable to switch the valve 92. Conduit connecting to the suction pipe 2 and conduit 22 leading into the air pump 21 are selectively connected with the controlled pressure chamber l7 in the pressure amplifier unit 11.
  • the pressure amplifier unit 11 performs an amplifying operation to recirculate exhaust gas in the exhaust pipe into the intake manifold 2, but when positive pressure in the air pump 21 is introduced into the controlled pressure chamber 17 in said unit 1 1 through change-over valve 41, a pertinent amount of positive pressure is released into the atmosphere from the bleeding hole 27 through check valve 102 so that positive pressure in the controlled pressure chamber 17 will become same as produced by amplifying variation of negative pressure around the venturi 5, thus opening the fixed orifice 54 by the operating valve 53 in' the control valve assembly 7.
  • the negative pressure in the suction pipe representing the operating condition of the engine is amplified into a positive pressure proportional to the absolute value of the negative pressure by a pressure amplifier unit consisting of two pieces of diaphragms and an air bleeding mechanism, and such positive pressure is introduced into a controlled pressure chamber in the control valve assembly which controls the exhaust gas recirculation rate, thus allowing opening of the control valve with a large positive pressure while controlling the exhaust gas recirculation rate corresponding to the operating condition of the engine. No problem is posed in the opening of the control valve even when using a spring with a strong pressing force in the control valve closing direction.
