2. Description of the Related Art Superchargers have conventionally been used in engines mounted on construction machines in order to increase the efficiency of the engine. There are two types of turbochargers: turbochargers and superchargers (also called mechanical superchargers). The former uses an exhaust gas to rotate a turbine and a compressor directly connected to it to increase the pressure of intake air. This is a device for increasing the amount of intake air. The latter is a device that increases the amount of intake air by rotating the compressor and increasing the pressure of the intake air with a part of the output of the engine. The former uses the energy of exhaust gas,
The efficiency of the engine is better than the latter.

However, since the turbine is rotated by the exhaust gas of the engine and is supercharged by the compressor connected to the turbine, the engine rotates from the no-load maximum rotation state (low-load state of the working machine) to the high-output rotation state (low-load state). There is a disadvantage that a time lag (a so-called turbo lag) with respect to an increase in the air supply amount is large when shifting to a high load state of the working machine). Further, when an intercooler (intake cooling device) is mounted, a pressure loss occurs in the intercooler, and a supercharging delay occurs. For this reason, the air-fuel ratio becomes excessively small, and the amount of unburned fuel in the exhaust gas increases, resulting in smoke and deterioration of fuel consumption. At the same time, there is a problem that the degree of decrease in the engine speed increases.

FIG. 2 shows a configuration example of the switching valve 17. FIG.
(A) is an example in which a switching valve 17 is provided at a branch point between the intake path 15 and the bypass path 19. The switching valve 17 communicates with the intercooler when the upstream supercharging pressure P does not reach the predetermined pressure P1, and switches when the supercharging pressure P exceeds the predetermined pressure P1,
Communicate with the bypass route. Also, after the switching valve 17 is connected,
The bypass path may be closed by switching again after a lapse of a predetermined short time. This is possible by adding an adjustable delay element 20 (see FIG. 2C) to the switching valve 17. When the bypass path is in communication, intake air does not flow to the intercooler 18. FIG. 2B shows an example in which the switching valve 17 is provided on the bypass path 19.
Is connected to the intercooler when the upstream supercharging pressure P does not reach the predetermined pressure P1, and is switched when the supercharging pressure P becomes equal to or higher than the predetermined pressure P1. However, intercooler 1
8 has a large air flow resistance, so that most of the intake air flows into the intake side manifold 14 through the bypass path. Therefore, the switching valve 17 shown in FIG.
7 also works and has almost the same effect. Similarly, the switching valve 17 may be provided at the junction of the bypass path.

FIG. 3 shows a comparison between the transient response (B) of the present embodiment and the transient response (A) of the conventional device without the bypass path 19 (see FIG. 5). These show responses when the load is suddenly changed from the low load state to the high load state. In a low load state, the supercharging pressure is low because the exhaust flow rate is small, and the supercharging pressure increases with the exhaust flow rate as the load increases. In the conventional apparatus, a response of a primary system having a peak is made. However, in this embodiment, when the supercharging pressure reaches P1, the bypass path is connected, and the supercharging pressure reaches a plateau at the pressure P1. In addition, the air intake flow rate is a large time lag in conventional equipment (supercharging delay).
With DL. This is approximately equal to the time of passing through the intercooler 18. On the other hand, the time lag in the case of the present embodiment is substantially equal to the switching time Dt of the switching valve 17. Since the switching time Dt is significantly shorter than the time for passing through the intercooler 18, the time lag of supercharging in the case of the present embodiment is very small.
