Description
Fuel injection pump and cleaning method and system Technical field of the invention
The present invention relates to a fuel injection pump for an internal combustion engine in accordance with the preamble of claim 1. The invention also concerns a method for cleaning a fuel injection pump and a cleaning system for a fuel injection pump as defined in the preambles of the other independent claims.
Background of the invention
Due to the growing concern regarding carbon dioxide emissions, the use of liquid bio- fuels, such as palm oil, is becoming more and more common in internal combustion engines. A problem with many biofuels is polymerization, which can cause problems especially in fuel injection pumps. Polymerization of the fuel inside a fuel injection pump can lead to clogged leak lines and jamming of the fuel quantity adjustment mechanism. In the worst case, the injection pump is unable to adjust the quantity of the fuel injection when the engine is stopped, leading in overspeeding of the engine and significant damages. Polymerization of the fuel also accelerates the wear of the fuel quantity adjustment mechanism. Similar problems can occur in engines in which crude oil or other low quality fuels are used.
Summary of the invention
An object of the present invention is to provide an improved fuel injection pump for an internal combustion engine. Another object of the present invention is to provide an improved method and system for cleaning a fuel injection pump of an internal combustion engine. The fuel injection pump according to the present invention is characterized by the characterizing part of claim 1. The cleaning method and system according to the present invention are characterized by the characterizing parts of the other independent claims.
According to the present invention, the fuel injection pump for an internal combustion engine comprises a pump body, a fuel chamber being arranged inside the pump body, a
fuel inlet for introducing fuel into the fuel chamber, a reciprocating plunger being arranged at least partly inside the fuel chamber for pressurizing the fuel in the chamber, a fuel outlet for guiding the pressurized fuel out of the fuel chamber, and a control sleeve being arranged around the plunger and being provided with gears for rotating the plung- er. The fuel injection pump further comprises a washing liquid inlet for introducing washing liquid inside the pump body, and a washing liquid outlet being arranged below the washing liquid inlet for draining the washing liquid out of the fuel injection pump.
According to the present invention, the method for cleaning a fuel injection pump of an internal combustion engine comprises the steps of introducing washing liquid into the fuel injection pump, and draining the washing liquid out of the fuel injection pump.
According to the present invention, the cleaning system for a fuel injection pump of an internal combustion engine comprises means for introducing washing liquid into the fuel injection pump and means for draining the washing liquid out of the fuel injection pump.
With the fuel injection pump, cleaning method and cleaning system in accordance with the invention the reliability of the fuel injection pumps can be improved and wearing reduced. The invention is particularly useful when biofuel, such as palm oil, or some low quality fuel, such as crude oil is used in the engine. Washing of the fuel injection pumps reduces for instance problems caused by polymerization of biofuels.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the washing liquid inlet of the fuel injec- tion pump is located at the same height or above the gears. This helps to keep the quantity adjusting gear of the fuel injection pump clean.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the fuel injection pump comprises a spring compartment being arranged below the gears and a spring being arranged inside the spring compartment for pushing the plunger downwards. According to another embodiment of the invention, the upper end of the spring is supported against an annular plate that is arranged around the control sleeve.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the annular plate comprises a plurality of grooves that are arranged on the inner perimeter of the plate and extend from the top surface of the plate to the lower surface of the plate. According to another embodiment of the invention, the annular plate comprises a plurality of grooves that are arranged on the top surface of the plate and coincide with the grooves on the inner perimeter of the plate. The grooves of the annular spring support plate facilitate the flow of the washing liquid inside the fuel injection pump from the washing liquid inlet into the spring compartment. According to an embodiment of the invention, in the method for cleaning a fuel injection pump the washing liquid is introduced into the fuel injection pump through a separate washing liquid inlet. When separate washing liquid inlets are used, the fuel injection pumps can be washed when the engine is running. According to an embodiment of the invention, the washing liquid is the fuel used in the engine or light fuel oil. The use of the same fuel for washing the fuel injection pumps is advantageous since that removes the need for any additional washing liquid tank. In some applications, however, the use of light fuel oil (LFO) might lead to better washing results. The use of LFO might be advantageous especially when LFO is used for starting the engine.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the washing liquid is heated before being injected into the fuel injection pump. According to an embodiment of the invention, the washing liquid is heated by heating elements that are positioned along a distribution duct. If bio fuel, such as palm oil, is used as the washing liquid, it is necessary to heat up the fuel before using it for washing the fuel injection pumps. In some cases, it might be beneficial to heat up also LFO that is used for washing. A practical way of heating is to use trace heating, where the fuel is heated by heating elements that are positioned along the washing liquid distribution ducts.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the washing liquid is introduced from the fuel injection pump into a fuel leakage line of the fuel injection pump. When washing
liquid is introduced into the fuel leakage line, no separate duct is needed for collecting the washing liquid.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the amount of the fuel injected by the fuel injection pump is changed during the injection of the washing liquid. By moving the quantity adjusting rack during washing, better cleaning result of the quantity adjusting gear can be achieved.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the washing liquid is injected into the fuel injection pump for a predetermined period of time at predetermined intervals of time. When the fuel injection pumps are washed according to a predetermined schedule, the pumps are kept clean and it is not necessary to stop the engine for cleaning the fuel injection pumps. According to an embodiment of the invention, the washing liquid is injected into the fuel injection pump after giving a stop command to the engine, except after an emergency shutdown. According to an embodiment of the invention, before shutdown of the engine, light fuel oil is used for cleaning. When the fuel injection pumps are cleaned before stopping the engine, it is ensured that the quantity adjustment of the injection pumps works properly even in the case the engine is shutdown for a longer period of time. The use of light fuel oil is beneficial if the engine is run on palm oil or other similar biofuel to avoid problems caused by changes of the composition of the fuel over time. According to an embodiment of the invention, the washing liquid is circulated to the fuel injection system of the engine after being used for cleaning the fuel injection pump. When the fuel that is used in the engine or LFO is used for washing the fuel injection pumps, the washing liquid can be utilized in the engine after use and is not wasted. Other embodiments of the present invention are defined in the dependent claims.

Detailed description of the invention
Embodiments of the present invention are now described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In Fig. 1 is shown schematically an embodiment of the cleaning system for an internal combustion engine. The engine is a large compression ignition internal combustion engine, which can be used, for instance, as a main or auxiliary engine of a ship or at a power plant for producing electricity. In the embodiment of Fig. 1 the engine is a V- engine with two banks, but the cylinders of the engine could also be arranged inline or in some other configuration. Each cylinder of the engine is provided with an own fuel injection pump 12. The engine is run on biofuel, such as palm oil, or some other fuel, such as crude oil, typically causing clogging or other problems in the fuel injection pumps 12.
The cleaning system comprises a pump 1 that sucks washing liquid from a tank. The washing liquid can be either light fuel oil (LFO) or the same fuel that is used for operating the engine. A pressure regulating valve 2 is connected in parallel with the pump 1 for controlling pressure in the cleaning system. A pressure gauge 4 is arranged downstream from the pump 1 for measuring the pressure of the washing liquid. The washing liquid is distributed to the fuel injection pumps 12 in a distribution duct 11. The distri- bution duct 11 comprises branches 11a, 1 lb that are in connection with the two banks of the engine, and a part 11c that is in connection with the pump 1. The part 11c of the distribution duct 11 that is in connection with the pump 1 is connected to the branches
11a, l ib with a flexible hose 5. Both branches 11a, l ib of the distribution duct 11 are provided with a solenoid valve 6, 7 for controlling the flow of the washing liquid. A flexible distribution hose 8 connects each fuel injection pump 12 to the distribution duct 11a, 1 lb. A draining duct 9 connects each of the fuel injection pumps 12 to a return line 10. In the return line 10 the washing liquid is guided into a tank 30. The tank 30 can be the fuel tank of the engine. If the fuel that is used for operating the engine is used instead of LFO for washing the fuel injection pumps 12, it might be necessary to provide the cleaning system with means for heating the washing liquid. A practical method for heating the washing liquid is to provide the system with trace heating equipment, where electrical heating elements are arranged in connection with the distribution duct 11. The distribution duct 11 together with the heating elements is arranged inside an insulating layer.
If the washing liquid is the fuel that is used in the engine, the pump 1 can be the fuel delivery pump of the engine. In that case, the distribution duct 11 can branch from a fuel delivery duct.
In Figs. 2 and 3 is shown a cross-sectional view of an injection pump 12 according to an embodiment of the invention. The injection pump 12 comprises a pump body 13 and a fuel chamber 28 that is arranged inside the pump body 13. A reciprocating plunger 14 is arranged inside the pump body 13 for pressurizing the fuel in the fuel chamber 28. Fuel is introduced into the fuel chamber 28 from a fuel supply channel 27 that is arranged around the fuel chamber 28. A fuel inlet 26 connects the fuel supply channel 27 to a fuel distribution hose. From the fuel chamber 28, pressurized fuel is guided via a fuel outlet 29 to a cylinder of the engine. The plunger 14 is rotatable for allowing adjustment of the amount of the injected fuel. For rotating the plunger 14, a control sleeve 15 is arranged around the plunger 14. The control sleeve 15 is provided with gears 16 that are engaged with a movable rack 17 for rotating the control sleeve 15 and the plunger 14. The quantity adjustment works in a conventional manner and is not described in more detail here. At the same height with the gears 16 of the control sleeve 15, there is arranged a washing liquid inlet 18. Through the washing liquid inlet 18, the washing liquid can be introduced inside the pump body 13. Inside the fuel injection pump 12, the washing liquid can flow downwards between the pump body 13 and the control sleeve 15. Since the
washing liquid inlets 18 are separate from the fuel inlets 26, the cleaning of the fuel injection pumps 12 can take place also when the engine is running.
The fuel injection pump 12 also comprises a spring compartment 19 accommodating a spring 20. The spring compartment 19 is below the gears 16 of the control sleeve 15. The spring 20 is arranged to push the plunger 14 downwards towards a cam that drives the fuel injection pump 12. The upper end of the spring 20 lies against an annular spring support plate 21 that is arranged around the control sleeve 15. The spring support plate 21 is supported against an elbow 22 of the pump body 13 for preventing the plate 21 from moving upwards. The inner perimeter of the spring support plate 21 is provided with grooves 23 extending from the upper surface of the plate 21 to the lower surface of the plate 21, as shown in figures 4 and 6. The grooves 23 coincide with grooves 24 that are arranged on the upper surface of the spring support plate 21. Through the grooves 23, 24 the washing liquid can flow between the spring support plate 21 and the control sleeve 15 from the upper side of the spring support plate 21 into the spring compartment 19. From the spring compartment 19 the washing liquid can flow through a washing liquid outlet 25 into the return line 10, as shown in figure 5. In the embodiment of the figures, the return line 10 is the fuel leakage line that collects the leaking fuel from the fuel injection pump 12. However, there could also be separate ducts for the washing liquid and the leaking fuel.
The cleaning system is arranged to work at predetermined intervals and before stopping the engine. When the cleaning of the injection pumps 12 is scheduled, a control unit starts the pump 1. If the distribution duct 11 is provided with heating elements, the heat- ing elements are kept constantly switched on. Pressure in the distribution duct 11 is measured with the pressure gauge 4, and when the pressure is high enough for washing, one of the solenoid valves, say valve 6, is opened. The required pressure depends on the properties of the washing liquid and the fuel and the construction of the injection pumps 12. According to an embodiment of the invention, the pressure is 2-2.5 bar. The sole- noid valve 6 is kept open for a predetermined period of time for washing the fuel injection pumps 12 on one bank of the engine. The washing liquid flows through the distribution hoses 8 into the fuel injection pumps 12 and further through the draining ducts 9 into the return line 10. In the return line 10 the washing liquid is conducted into the tank
30. When the solenoid valve 6 that was opened first is closed, the other valve 7 is opened and washing of the other bank of the engine is continued for a predetermined period of time. The interval at which the washing takes place and the duration of the washing depends on the fuel type that is used in the engine, the operating conditions of the engine, and the design of the fuel injection pumps 12. The washing interval can be for instance 20-120 minutes and the duration of the washing 15-120 seconds/bank. If the load demand allows, the quantity adjusting racks 17 of the fuel injection pumps 12 can be moved to rotate the control sleeves 15 of the injection pumps 12. This ensures thorough cleaning of the quantity adjusting equipment.
It will be appreciated by a person skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, but may vary within the scope of the appended claims.
