As shown in FIG. 2, the calculation means 4 is connected to the detection means 3, acquires a predetermined signal output when the detection means 3 detects the detection hole 2a, and calculates the engine speed R and the upper limit of each piston. It is possible to calculate the dead center positions TDC1, TDC2, and TDC3.
算出手段4は、エンジン10を制御する電子制御ユニット(以下、単に「ECU」と記す)5に接続され、または、ECU5と一体的に構成され、算出したエンジン回転数Rおよび各ピストンの上死点位置TDC1、TDC2、TDC3をECU5に伝送することが可能である。ここで、ECU5は、エンジン10、表示手段6および入力手段7等に接続され、算出手段4が算出するエンジン回転数Rを表示手段6に表示し、算出手段4が算出する各シリンダの上死点位置TDC1、TDC2、TDC3に基づき、入力手段7からの入力値に応じたエンジン10の制御を行う。
The calculation means 4 is connected to an electronic control unit (hereinafter simply referred to as “ECU”) 5 that controls the engine 10 or is configured integrally with the ECU 5 to calculate the calculated engine speed R and top dead of each piston. The point positions TDC1, TDC2, and TDC3 can be transmitted to the ECU 5. Here, the ECU 5 is connected to the engine 10, the display means 6, the input means 7, etc., displays the engine speed R calculated by the calculation means 4 on the display means 6, and the top dead of each cylinder calculated by the calculation means 4. Based on the point positions TDC1, TDC2, and TDC3, the engine 10 is controlled in accordance with the input value from the input means 7.
次に、図3を用いて本発明の第一実施形態に係るエンジン回転数検出装置1の算出手段4による算出態様について説明する。
Next, a calculation mode by the calculation means 4 of the engine speed detection device 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
算出手段4は、検出手段3が検出用孔2aを検出した際、検出手段3から検出信号を取得する。
The calculation means 4 acquires a detection signal from the detection means 3 when the detection means 3 detects the detection hole 2a.
算出手段4は、検出信号の検出間隔に基づいてエンジン回転数Rを算出し、ECU5に伝送する。
Calculating means 4 calculates the engine speed R based on the detection interval of the detection signal and transmits it to the ECU 5.
算出手段4は、検出信号の検出間隔と当該検出間隔の直前の検出間隔とを比較し、当該検出間隔が所定値以上の場合、欠孔2bが検出されたと判断し、ECU5に伝送する。但し、欠孔2bを設ける代わりに、欠孔2bの部分の検出用孔2aの深さを浅くまたは深くまたは貫通孔とすることにより、検出手段3による検出値が他の検出用孔2bの検出値と異なるように構成して、基準位置とすることができる。この場合、欠孔2bの場合、ノッキングが生じたりや負荷がかかったりした場合等では、パルスの間隔が伸びて欠孔2bと判断する可能性があるが、検出値が異なることにより確実に基準位置を検出することができる。
The calculating means 4 compares the detection interval of the detection signal with the detection interval immediately before the detection interval, and when the detection interval is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, determines that the missing hole 2b has been detected and transmits it to the ECU 5. However, instead of providing the notched hole 2b, the depth of the detecting hole 2a in the portion of the notched hole 2b is made shallower, deeper or a through hole so that the detection value by the detecting means 3 can be detected by the other detecting holes 2b. The reference position can be configured by being different from the value. In this case, in the case of the notched hole 2b, when knocking occurs or a load is applied, the interval between pulses may be extended and it may be determined as the missing hole 2b. The position can be detected.
算出手段4は、欠孔2bが検出されたクランク軸角度θを基準位置として回転角度θ1だけクランク軸11が回転したとき、第1ピストンおよび第6ピストンが上死点位置TDC1に到達したと判断しECU5に信号を伝送する。
The calculating means 4 determines that the first piston and the sixth piston have reached the top dead center position TDC1 when the crankshaft 11 is rotated by the rotational angle θ1 with the crankshaft angle θ from which the cutout hole 2b is detected as a reference position. Then, a signal is transmitted to the ECU 5.
算出手段4は、欠孔2bが検出されたクランク軸角度θを基準位置として回転角度θ2だけクランク軸11が回転したとき、第2ピストンおよび第4ピストンが上死点位置TDC2に到達したと判断しECU5に信号を伝送する。
The calculation means 4 determines that the second piston and the fourth piston have reached the top dead center position TDC2 when the crankshaft 11 is rotated by the rotation angle θ2 with the crankshaft angle θ from which the cutout hole 2b is detected as a reference position. Then, a signal is transmitted to the ECU 5.
算出手段4は、欠孔2bが検出されたクランク軸角度θを基準位置として回転角度θ3だけクランク軸11が回転したとき、第3ピストンおよび第5ピストンが上死点位置TDC3に到達したと判断しECU5に信号を伝送する。
The calculation means 4 determines that the third piston and the fifth piston have reached the top dead center position TDC3 when the crankshaft 11 is rotated by the rotation angle θ3 with the crankshaft angle θ from which the hole 2b is detected as a reference position. Then, a signal is transmitted to the ECU 5.
このような構成により、算出手段4は、欠孔2bが検出されたあとクランク軸11が予め設定された回転角度だけ回転したときに信号を伝送するので、前記信号がECU5に到達するまでの時間を考慮してその信号を伝送することができる。したがって、算出手段4は、例えば欠孔2bが検出されたと同時に信号を伝送するような構成と比べて、第1ピストンおよび第6ピストンが上死点位置TDC1に到達したとの判断、第2ピストンおよび第4ピストンが上死点位置TDC2に到達したとの判断、第3ピストンおよび第5ピストンが上死点位置TDC3に到達したと判断を、それぞれより確実に行うことができる。
With such a configuration, the calculation means 4 transmits a signal when the crankshaft 11 rotates by a preset rotation angle after the detection of the notched hole 2b, so that the time until the signal reaches the ECU 5 is transmitted. The signal can be transmitted in consideration of Therefore, the calculation means 4 determines that the first piston and the sixth piston have reached the top dead center position TDC1, as compared with a configuration in which a signal is transmitted at the same time when the missing hole 2b is detected, for example, The determination that the fourth piston has reached the top dead center position TDC2 and the determination that the third piston and the fifth piston have reached the top dead center position TDC3 can be more reliably performed.
ECU5は、算出手段4からエンジン回転数Rを取得した後、表示手段6にエンジン回転数Rを表示させる。また、ECU5は、算出手段4からエンジン回転数Rおよび上死点位置TDC1、TDC2、TDC3の信号を取得した後、エンジン10を前記信号に基づき入力手段7の入力値に従って制御する。
ECU5 displays the engine speed R on the display means 6 after acquiring the engine speed R from the calculation means 4. Further, the ECU 5 acquires signals of the engine speed R and the top dead center positions TDC1, TDC2, and TDC3 from the calculation means 4, and then controls the engine 10 according to the input value of the input means 7 based on the signals.
