Definitions
- the invention initially relates to a method for operating an internal combustion engine, in which the fuel reaches at least one combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine via at least one fuel injection device, the valve element of which is moved by a piezo actuator, and in which the function of the piezo actuator is monitored and a malfunction is recognized.
- Such a method is known from DE 198 54 306 AI.
- a fuel injection device which comprises a piezo actuator and which is installed in an internal combustion engine with gasoline direct injection (BDE).
- BDE gasoline direct injection
- a separate fuel injection device is assigned to each combustion chamber.
- the fuel can be injected into the corresponding combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine via the fuel injection device in such a way that, depending on the desired operating mode, it is stratified or homogeneously distributed. If it is stratified, this means that an ignitable fuel-air mixture is essentially only present in the area of the spark plug. In this operating mode, the air supply to the combustion chamber is in the Essentially completely dethrottled.
- piezo actuators has the advantage that a desired injection quantity can be injected with high accuracy. This applies in particular to very small injection quantities, such as occur, for example, in the case of a pre-injection or in the division of larger injection quantities into small individual injections.
- an electrical charge is introduced into the piezo actuator.
- This charging leads to a change in the length of the piezo actuator.
- a valve element of the fuel injection device and the piezo actuator are usually coupled to one another by a hydraulic transmission. To end the injection, the charge is removed from the piezo actuator again.
- the control of the piezo actuators of the fuel injection devices of the respective combustion chambers or. Cylinder of an internal combustion engine is usually carried out by controlling an output stage, which is located in a control unit.
- the control unit and the piezo actuator are connected to one another via lines which are detachably connected to the fuel injection device by means of connecting means.
- the piezo actuator is controlled in such a way that the fuel injection device is open and that, due to a malfunction, it is no longer possible to change the state of charge of the piezo actuator and thus to close the fuel injection device.
- the corresponding cylinder would be uninterrupted, for example also during the combustion phase and while the hot combustion exhaust gases are being expelled,
- Fuel are supplied. However, this would be too serious Damage, for example caused by a fuel blow, on the internal combustion engine and on a catalyst of the internal combustion engine.
- Such an error can occur, for example, in the event of a cable break in the connection between the piezo actuator and the control unit. This error can also occur if a defect occurs in the control unit. Such a defect is present, for example, in the case of a faulty power stage switch. Furthermore, such an error occurs when the
- Piezo actuator an ohmic resistor is connected:, through which the piezo actuator can be discharged in a defined manner.
- the present invention therefore has the object to provide a method of the aforementioned type so that r develop with him damage to the internal combustion engine and can be excluded on the catalyst with maximum security, when a malfunction of the piezoelectric actuator is detected.
- the measure according to the invention prevents the fuel injection device from continuing to be supplied with the maximum fuel mass flow. Even if the valve element of the fuel injection device is not in the closed position for a certain time, this reduction in the fuel mass flow reduces the possible fuel input into the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine. However, the less fuel that can still get into the combustion chamber assigned to the fuel injection device in the event of a malfunction of the piezo actuator, the lower the risk that, for example, a fuel blow will occur or that unburned fuel is transported to the catalytic converter in such an amount that it can cause damage there.
- the fuel is delivered by at least one fuel umpe into a high-pressure area to which the fuel injection device is connected, and that if a malfunction of the piezo actuator is detected, the pressure in the high-pressure area is reduced.
- a malfunction of the piezo actuator is detected, the pressure in the high-pressure area is reduced.
- Pre-feed pump is present, on the pre-delivery pressure, or it can be reduced to ambient pressure.
- the piezo actuator is brought into a safety position when a malfunction is detected and the pressure in the high pressure area is then raised to a normal level again when the piezo actuator is in the safety position.
- the internal combustion engine can continue to be operated in an emergency mode with those combustion chambers whose fuel injection devices still function normally. If the internal combustion engine is installed in a motor vehicle, for example, the next workshop can be started in an emergency operation mode.
- the valve element of the fuel injection device can be brought from an incorrectly opened position into a closed safety position in a particularly simple manner by unloading the piezo actuator.
- Such unloading of the piezo actuator is possible, for example, by the devices disclosed in DE 198 54 306 AI.
- Corresponding possibilities are also disclosed in DE 197 11 903 AI. The content of both documents is hereby expressly made the subject of the present disclosure.
- the fuel connection to the fuel injection device be interrupted when a malfunction of the piezo actuator is detected. This is possible, for example, by installing a shut-off valve between the high pressure area and the fuel injection device. Such a complete interruption of the fuel connection to the fuel injection device ensures that even when the valve element is blocked in the open position
- Fuel injector has run out of fuel appropriate combustion chamber arrives.
- the risk of damage to the internal combustion engine is particularly low.
- the invention also relates to a computer program which is suitable for carrying out the above method when it is carried out on a computer. It is particularly preferred if the computer program is stored on a memory, in particular on a flash memory or a ferrite RAM.
- the invention also relates to a control and / or regulating device for operating an internal combustion engine.
- a control and / or regulating device it is particularly preferred if it comprises a memory on which a computer program of the above type is stored.
- the invention further relates to an internal combustion engine with at least one fuel umpe, with at least one fuel injection device which injects the fuel directly into at least one combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine, and whose valve element is coupled to a piezo actuator, and with means with which a malfunction of the Piezo actuator can be recognized.
- the internal combustion engine include means with which the piezo actuator detects a malfunction
- Fuel mass flow to the fuel injector can be reduced.
- the internal combustion engine comprises a high-pressure area, which is connected to the fuel pump Fuel injection device is connected to the high pressure area, and that it comprises a pressure control valve with which the pressure in the high pressure area can be influenced.
- the high-pressure area in internal combustion engines with gasoline direct injection is generally a fuel manifold, which is also referred to as a "rail".
- the fuel is pumped into it by a high-pressure fuel pump under high pressure.
- the pressure in the fuel rail is set by a pressure control valve, if necessary along with other measures. If a malfunction of a piezo actuator of a fuel injection device is now reported, the pressure from the high pressure area can be released immediately via the pressure control valve.
- the advantages according to the invention can thus be achieved without the need to install additional components.
- the pressure reduction in the high pressure area can also be supported by interrupting the delivery of the fuel from the fuel pump to the high pressure area. This can be easily achieved by controlling a quantity control valve that is usually present.
- the internal combustion engine comprises a valve device with which the fuel connection to the fuel injection device can be interrupted.
- a valve device can be arranged, for example, between the high pressure area and the fuel injection device. It offers a particularly high level of security against damage to the internal combustion engine when the piezo actuator is at least temporarily blocked in the open position.
- the internal combustion engine is a Includes device with which an electrical charge stored in the piezo actuator can be discharged when a malfunction of the piezo actuator is detected.
