Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system for regulating the flow of an exhaust gas.
- EGR exhaust gas recirculation
- EGR systems are increasingly being utilized to improve the efficiency of engines and reduce the harmful effects of the exhaust gas on the environment.
- an engine burns fuel, it produces an exhaust gas which contains unburned fuel and other impurities, h an EGR system, the exhaust gas is redirected through the engine to burn any unburned fuel remaining in the exhaust gas. Reburrring the exhaust gas before it is released reduces the harmful effects of the exhaust gas on the atmosphere and enables the vehicle to meet government emission standards.
- EGR systems typically include a valve and a cooler. The valve regulates the amount of exhaust gas that is introduced back into the engine. The cooler cools the exhaust gas to a specified temperature which condenses the unburned fuel.
- Prior EGR systems utilize a vacuum source with a diaphragm actuator to open and close the valve.
- the diaphragm actuator has a slow response time and is either open or closed with no intermediate valve position.
- One drawback to the prior art is that the slow response time of valves reduce the horsepower and efficiency of the engine, limiting the amount the EGR system may be used.
- the present invention relates to an exhaust gas recirculation system for regulating the flow of an exhaust gas.
- the exhaust gas recirculation system includes an EGR valve apparatus which regulates the amount of exhaust gas that is recirculated in the system, hi one embodiment, a motor rotates a shaft which opens or closes a plurahty of valves. The amount of exhaust gas flowing through the EGR valve apparatus is proportional to the amount the valves are opened or closed.
- a force balanced rotary EGR valve assembly including balance seat valves is utilized. When more exhaust is to enter a chamber, the shaft is rotated, moving a downward balanced seat rotary EGR valve downwardly out of the chamber against the flow of exhaust and an upward balanced seat rotary EGR valve upwardly into the chamber with the flow of exhaust. Rotating the shaft in the opposite direction reverses the movement of the valves, allowing less exhaust gas to enter the chamber.
- a third embodiment includes an inline poppet located on each valve which opens to allow gas to enter the chamber before the EGR valve is opened to overcome the pressure in the system.
- a cam translates the rotary motion of the motor shaft to the linear motion of a valve shaft to open the EGR valve.
- the motor rotates the motor shaft to pivot a balance arm in a fourth embodiment.
- a first end of the arm moves upwardly to raise an EGR valve, and a second end of the arm moves downwardly to lower an EGR valve, allowing more exhaust gas to enter the chamber.
- Reverse rotation of the shaft reverses the movement of the valves, allowing less exhaust gas to enter the chamber.
- an air venturi apparatus is employed.
- the motor rotates a shaft of a poppet, separating a pintle from an orifice.
- the degree of separation of the pintle from the orifice allows a proportional amount of a fresh air/exhaust gas mixture to return to the system.
- the present invention provides an exhaust gas recirculation system for regulating the flow of an exhaust gas.
- Figure 1 illustrates a flow diagram for an exhaust recirculation system which regulates the, flow of an exhaust gas
- Figure 2 is a perspective view of a first embodiment of the valve apparatus of the present invention
- Figure 3 illustrates a perspective view of a second embodiment of the valve apparatus employing a forced balanced seat EGR valve assembly
- Figure 4 illustrates a cross sectional side view of the valves of the force balanced rotary EGR valve assembly of the second embodiment
- Figure 5 illustrates an interior cross sectional view of a third embodiment of the valve apparatus with the force balanced rotary valves opened
- Figure 6 illustrates an interior cross sectional view of a fourth embodiment of the valve apparatus.
- Figure 7 illustrates a perspective internal view of an air venturi assembly of a fifth embodiment of the present invention.
- the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system illustrated in Figure 1, comprises an engine control unit (ECU) 10 which transmits a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal 20 to a printed circuit board (PCB) pilot circuit 12.
- PWM pulse width modulated
- PCB printed circuit board
- a PWM signal 20 is not strong enough to operate a motor 14, the pilot circuit 12 is connected to a second current source 18, such as a battery, which increases the strength of the PWM signal 20.
- the pilot circuit 12 then transmits a second signal 22 to the motor 14, which actuates a valve apparatus 16 to control the flow of a fresh air/exhaust gas mixture back into the system.
- the motor 14 is an electric D/C motor 14, preferably a monophase electromagnetic actuator.
- the ECU 10 is programmed to operate the EGR system at certain customer specified duty cycles. As a vehicle travels at a constant speed, the ECU 10 transmits a signal to operate the EGR system at full capacity. However, when the vehicle requires maximum horsepower, such as during acceleration, the ECU 10 transmits the PWM signal 20 to close the valves apparatus 16, to step exhaust gas recirculation. The ECU 10 is limited by being able to transmit a signal of no more than 1.3 amps.
- Figure 2 illustrates a first embodiment of the EGR valve apparatus 16 of the present invention.
- a non-contact sensor of the motor 14 receives a signal from the pilot circuit 12 and in response rotates a shaft 30 to proportionally open or close a plurality of valves 28.
- the motor 14 is attached to a housing 42 by a bracket 34, which provides support for the shaft 30 and withstands the torque produced as the shaft 30 rotates.
- Each of the valves 28 includes an arm 44 connected to a disc 46 by a pin. As the shaft 30 rotates, the arm 44 pivots and the disc 46 moves, opening and closing the valves 28. hi this embodiment, each of the valves 28 are substantially positioned on the same side of the shaft 30.
- exhaust gas flows from the engine, which is fastened to the housing 42 at a first mounting face 24, through an exhaust gas inlet 40.
- the exhaust gas enters a chamber 36 and exits the valve assembly 16 through the outlet 38.
- the exhaust gas then flows into a cooler, which is fastened to the housing 42 at a second mounting face 26.
- a valve assembly 116 including force balanced seat rotary EGR valves 128 is utilized.
- the shaft 130 rotates to proportionally raise and lower the rotary EGR valves 128 allowing exhaust to enter the chamber 136 from the engine.
- a pair of force balanced rotary EGR valves 128 are illustrated, any number may be utilized, hi this embodiment, the rotary EGR valves 128 are positioned on opposite sides of the shaft 130.
- each rotary EGR valve 128 includes a pintle 148 attached to a bottom portion 150 of a valve shaft 144.
- the shaft 130 is rotated so that the downward rotary EGR valve 128a moves downwardly out of the chamber 126 against the flow of exhaust, and the upward rotary EGR valve 128b moves upwardly into the chamber 136 with the flow of exhaust.
- the degree of rotation of the shaft 130 determines the amount the rotary EGR valves 128a, 128b are opened. It is preferred that the shaft 130 be rotated 20°, although other degrees of rotation are possible depending on system requirements.
- the shaft 130 When less exhaust is to enter the system, the shaft 130 is rotated in the opposite direction, reversing the abovementioned movement of the valves 128a, 128b.
- the pintles 148 of the rotary EGR valves 128 fit securely into an orifice 146 cut into the first mounting face 124 of the housing 142, preventing exhaust from being recirculated into the system.
- each valve shaft 152 As further illustrated in Figure 4, an upper portion 152 of each valve shaft
- valve shaft 144 secures the assembly.
- the arms 154 pivot and transfer the rotational movement of the shaft 130 into the linear movement of the rotary EGR valves 128a, 128b.
- a spring can be employed on the motor shaft 130 proximate to the motor 114 to prevent vibrations and to act as a fail safe mechanism to close the valves 128a, 128b if the motor 114 loses power.
- Figure 5 illustrates a third embodiment of the EGR valve assembly 216 in an open position.
- An inline poppet 266 located on the pintle 248 opens to allow gas to enter the chamber 236 before the EGR valve 228 is opened. This overcomes the pressure in the system, reducing the force needed to open the EGR valve 228.
- the motor 214 rotates a shaft 230 which is connected to a cam 268, the cam 268 translating the rotary motion of the motor shaft 230 to the linear motion of the valve shaft 244 and opens the EGR valve 228.
- the degree of rotation of the motor shaft 230 determines the degree of the opening of the EGR valve 228. Rotation of the motor shaft 230 moves the pintle 248 towards or away from the orifice 246 to allow the desired amount of exhaust gas to enter the chamber 236.
- Fig. 6 illustrates a fourth embodiment of valve assembly 316.
- the motor 314 rotates a motor shaft 330, pivoting a balance arm 372 so that a first end 374b of the arm 372 moves upwardly to raise the rotary EGR valve 328b, and the second end 374a of the arm 372 moves downwardly to lower the rotary EGR valve 328a.
- Reverse rotation of the shaft 330 reverses the movement of the valves 328a, 328b.
- the degree of the opening of the valves 328a, 328b is determined by the ECU 10.
- FIG. 7 illustrates an air venturi valve apparatus 416.
- Fresh air enters from a fresh air inlet 432 in a first elongated tube 424 and exhaust gas enters from an exhaust gas inlet, mixing in a chamber 436 of a housing 442.
- the fresh air/exhaust gas mixture exits the housing 442 through a fresh air/exhaust gas mixture outlet 438 in a second elongated tube 426, leading back to the system.
- the motor 414 rotates a shaft 444 of a poppet 430 threaded in the first elongated tube 424, separating a pintle 448 from an orifice 446.
- the pintle 448 moves away, the fresh air/exhaust gas mixture passes through the orifice 446 and into the system.
- the pintle 448 of the poppet 430 can be repositioned depending on the system requirements.
- the valve shaft 444 is rotated such that the pintle 448 is secured in the orifice 446, blocking the flow of fresh air/exhaust gas into the second elongated tube 426 and into the system.
- the motor 14 can proportionally open the valves 28, allowing for various flow ranges. Secondly, the motor 14 achieves a faster response than the vacuum actuators of the prior art. Additionally, this EGR system reduces space requirements within the engine compartment due to the compact size of the motor 14.
