Definitions
- the present invention relates to a drive device for driving a fuel injection device of an internal combustion engine.
- the drive circuit of an electromagnetic fuel injection device first applies a high voltage from a high voltage source to a coil when an injection pulse is output in order to quickly shift from a valve closing state to a valve opening state. Controls to quickly raise the coil current. Thereafter, after the mover moves away from the valve seat and moves in the direction of the fixed core, the voltage application is switched to a low voltage so that a constant current is supplied to the coil. When the current supply to the coil is stopped after the mover collides with the core, the valve opening delay of the mover occurs, so that the controllable injection amount is limited. Therefore, it is required to stop the current supply to the coil before the mover collides with the fixed core, and to control the valve body under a so-called half lift condition in which the mover and the valve body perform a parabolic motion.
- Patent Document 1 There is a method disclosed in Patent Document 1 as a control method under the condition that the valve body as described above is driven by a half lift.
- Patent Document 1 the integral value of the drive current flowing in the drive coil of the fuel injection valve is calculated, and the inductance of the drive coil is calculated based on this integral value in consideration of the DC superposition characteristics of the drive coil.
- a method for accurately estimating the lift amount by calculating well and estimating the lift amount of the valve body based on this inductance.
- the purpose of the present invention is to stabilize the behavior of the valve body at the half lift and reduce the inclination of the injection pulse width and the injection amount to improve the injection amount accuracy at the half lift, and the mover collides with the fixed core. By reducing the bounce of the valve body caused by doing this, it is to ensure the continuity of the injection amount from the half lift to the range after the mover collides with the fixed core.
- FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a fuel injection device according to a first embodiment of the present invention and a configuration of a drive circuit and an engine control unit (ECU) connected to the fuel injection device. It is the figure which showed the cross-sectional enlarged view of the drive part structure of the fuel-injection apparatus in 1st Example of this invention.
- FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the fuel injection device and an example of the configuration of the drive circuit 103 and the ECU 104 for driving the fuel injection device.
- the ECU 104 takes in signals indicating the state of the engine from various sensors and calculates the injection pulse width and injection timing for controlling the injection amount injected from the fuel injection device in accordance with the operating conditions of the internal combustion engine.
- the injection pulse output from the ECU 104 is input to the drive circuit 103 of the fuel injection device through the signal line 110.
- the drive circuit 103 controls the voltage applied to the solenoid 205 and supplies a current.
- the cap 232 receives the biasing force of the first spring 210 from above, and receives the biasing force (set load) of the third spring 234 from below.
- the biasing force of the first spring 210 is larger than the biasing force of the third spring 234, and as a result, the cap 232 applies a difference between the biasing force of the first spring 210 and the biasing force of the third spring 234. It is pressed against the protrusion 331 of the valve body 214 by the force. Since no force is applied to the cap 232 in the direction of coming out of the projection 331, it is sufficient to press-fit the cap 232 to the projection 331, and there is no need to weld it.
- the intermediate member 233 is positioned at the upper end surface (reference position) of the stepped portion 329 by the concave bottom surface portion 333E coming into contact with the upper end surface (reference position) of the stepped portion 329.
- the spring force (biasing force) of the first spring 210 is the largest, and then the spring force of the third spring 234 ( (Biasing force) is large, and the spring force (biasing force) of the second spring 212 is the smallest.
- FIG. 5 is a diagram showing details of the drive circuit 103 and the ECU 104 of the fuel injection device.
- the CPU 501 calculates an appropriate pulse width (ie, injection amount) and injection timing of the injection pulse width Ti according to the operating conditions of the internal combustion engine, and sends the injection pulse width Ti to the fuel injection device drive IC 502 through the communication line 504. Is output. Thereafter, the drive IC 502 switches between energization and non-energization of the switching elements 505, 506, and 507 to supply a drive current to the fuel injection device 540.
- the drive circuit 103 applies high voltage 401 to the solenoid 205 from a high voltage source that is energized through the switching elements 505 and 506 and boosted to a voltage higher than the battery voltage.
- a peak current value The maximum drive current Ipeak (hereinafter referred to as a peak current value) whose current value is predetermined in the ECU 104. ), The application of the high voltage 401 is stopped.
- the injection amount varies.
- an area where the fuel injection amount increases linearly as the injection pulse width Ti increases is increased, or the injection pulse width Ti is smaller than 704. It is necessary to suppress variations in the injection amount in a non-linear region where the relationship between Ti and the injection amount is not linear.
- valve body 114 since the behavior of the valve body 114 varies due to the dimensional tolerance, the timing of contact between the movable element 102 and the fixed core 107 differs for each fuel injection device, and the collision speed between the movable element 102 and the fixed core 107 varies. Therefore, the bounce of the valve body 114 varies for each individual fuel injection device, and the individual variation of the injection amount increases.
- FIG. 6 shows the relationship between the injection pulse, the drive current supplied to the fuel injection device, the switching elements 505, 506, and 507 of the fuel injection device, the voltage Vinj between the terminals of the solenoid 205, the behavior of the valve body 214 and the mover 202, and time.
- FIG. 7 the drive current 721 and the displacement amount 722 of the valve body 214 when the current waveform of FIG.
- FIG. 7 is a diagram showing the relationship between the injection pulse width and the injection amount when the fuel injection device 540 is controlled with the drive current waveform of FIG.
- the injection amount characteristic when the fuel injection device 540 is controlled by the drive current 610 is shown as an injection amount Q702.
- the timing for stopping the peak current I Peak is set immediately after the valve element 214 starts to open, the energy (integrated value of the current waveform) supplied to the solenoid 205 before the valve element 214 starts to open is large. Therefore, it is easy to secure kinetic energy when the mover 202 collides with the valve body 214. As a result, even when the fuel pressure supplied to the fuel injection device 540 is large, the valve body 214 can be stably controlled to the valve open state.
- the gradient of the injection pulse and the injection amount in the half lift region 742 can be reduced.
- the injection amount can be accurately controlled even when the control resolution of the injection pulse generated by the ECU 104 is large.
- the half lift region 740 when the conventional current waveform 621 is used becomes the half lift region 742.
- valve closing delay time the time required for the maximum height position is lengthened, and the time from when the injection pulse Ti is stopped until the valve body 214 comes into contact with the valve seat 218 (referred to as valve closing delay time) changes.
- the injection amount is determined in synchronization with the valve closing delay time except for the range where the valve body 214 bounces, and the injection amount increases as the valve closing delay time becomes longer. Therefore, by changing the energization time for supplying the second drive current 611, the amount of injection can be precisely controlled by controlling the time during which the valve body 214 is positioned at the maximum height position. As a result, the effect of suppressing PN can be enhanced.
- the current value 610 in the first current holding period is preferably larger than the current value 611 in the second current holding period.
- the movable element 202 and the fixed core 207 are not compared with the valve closing state in which the valve body 214 is in contact with the valve seat 218. Since the gap (magnetic gap) between them is small, it is easy to secure a magnetic attraction force, and since the sectional area of the seat portion of the valve body 214 is large, the differential pressure acting on the valve body 214 is also small. Therefore, it is only necessary to supply the solenoid 205 with a current having a minimum current value 606 or more that can hold the valve body 214 in the open state. On the other hand, in the first current holding period 610, the mover 202 and the valve body 214 are in a displaced state.
- the range which controls the displacement amount of the valve body 214 with the 1st drive current 610 can be expanded to the side with a small displacement amount.
- the range of the injection amount that can be controlled in the first holding current period in the half lift region 742 can be expanded to the smaller side, and there is an effect that it is possible to control even a smaller injection amount.
- the switching element 506 When the switching element 506 is energized and the switching elements 505 and 507 are turned off during the transition period from the peak current value I peak to the first drive current 610, a voltage of approximately 0 V is applied to the solenoid 205, and the current is slow. To drop. In this case, since the current value supplied to the solenoid 205 is increased, the magnetic attractive force is increased at a timing when the displacement amount of the valve body 214 is small, and the valve body 214 can be stably opened. . In particular, when the fuel pressure supplied to the fuel injection device 540 is large, the differential pressure acting on the valve body 214 increases, so it is preferable to use a current waveform that applies a voltage of 0 V to the solenoid 205. In addition, when the inductance of the fuel injection device 540 is small, even if the applied voltage to the solenoid 205 is 0V, the current quickly decreases. Therefore, the current control may be performed using 0V voltage application.
- the switching elements 505 and 507 are de-energized and the switching element 506 is energized and a voltage of approximately 0 V is applied to the solenoid 205, the injection pulse Ti even if the injection pulse Ti is stopped during the transition period 630. Is stopped, the boosted voltage VH in the negative direction is applied to the solenoid 205. Therefore, even if the energization pulse of the injection pulse Ti is stopped in the transition period 630, the width of the energization time of the current waveform can be controlled, and the dead zone where the injection amount does not change even if the injection pulse Ti changes can be reduced. The continuity of quantity can be secured. As a result, it is possible to appropriately change the injection amount according to the rotational speed of the operating condition, thereby improving the dubbability.
- the fuel injection is divided until the engine reaches a fast idle at which the engine speed is constant at the time of cold air start of the engine.
- a method that simultaneously achieves low emission at the start and early activation of the catalyst is effective. In this case, if the injection amount characteristic undulation occurs after reaching the full lift region 741 from the half lift region 740 as in the conventional current waveform 621, the injection amount cannot be controlled continuously, and a range in which fuel cannot be injected occurs.
- the second drive current 611 may be determined according to the fuel pressure. Specifically, when the fuel pressure increases, the second drive current 611 is increased to increase the magnetic attractive force.
- the differential pressure acting on the valve body 214 is a half pressure in which the valve body 214 does not reach the maximum height position compared to the case where the valve body 214 is driven to reach the maximum height position.
- the lift conditions are larger. This is because the smaller the amount of displacement of the valve body 214 is, the smaller the displacement of the valve body 214, the smaller the cross-sectional area of the seat portion, and the increase in the flow velocity of the fuel flowing through the seat portion increases the influence of a decrease in static pressure. Therefore, when the first driving current 610 and the second driving current 611 are corrected when the fuel pressure increases, the increase in the current of the first driving current 610 is larger than the increase in the current of the second driving current 611. It is better to correct so that By making the current value 611 of the second drive current 611 smaller than the first drive current 610, the current supplied to the solenoid 205 can be suppressed, and there is an advantage of suppressing power consumption.
- the heat generation of the solenoid 205 can be suppressed as the current value decreases, the temperature change accompanying the heat generation of the solenoid 205 can be suppressed, and the change in the resistance value of the solenoid 205 can be suppressed. Since the current supplied to the solenoid 205 depends on the resistance value of the solenoid 205 according to Ohm's law, the change in the resistance value can be suppressed, so that the change in the current can be suppressed and the accuracy of the injection amount can be improved. Rise. As for the fuel pressure, the ECU 104 can detect the signal of the pressure sensor 102 attached to the fuel pipe 105.
- the injection pulse may be corrected for each cylinder by an A / F sensor.
- an effect of preventing erroneous correction can be obtained with respect to the correction calculated by the A / F sensor, and the injection amount can be accurately controlled.
- the boosted voltage VH does not return to the initial value when the number of divided injections is large and the interval between injection and injection is small. In some cases, injection is performed under the condition that the boosted voltage VH is small.
- the period during which the boosted voltage VH is applied is shorter than the current waveform 621, and therefore, there is an effect that a decrease in the boosted voltage VH can be suppressed. By this effect, the displacement amount of the valve body 214 can be accurately controlled, and the accuracy of the injection amount in the divided injection can be increased.
- FIG. 8 shows the injection pulse, the drive current supplied to the fuel injection device, the switching elements 505, 506 and 507 of the fuel injection device 540, the voltage Vinj between the terminals of the solenoid 205, the valve body 214 and the movable member in the second embodiment of the present invention.
- the drive first drive current 610 when the current waveform of FIG. 6 is used is indicated by a dotted line.
- the same symbol is used about the symbol equivalent to FIG.
- the driving device in the second embodiment is equivalent to that in the first embodiment.
- the minimum range in which the injection amount can be controlled by the half lift can be accurately determined.
- the time for applying the negative boost voltage VH is set to the timing when the current value falls below the threshold value after reaching the peak current value I peak , the change in the resistance value of the solenoid 205 or the boost voltage VH the voltage value even if the change can be kept current value at the timing t 83 to the constant, it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the magnetic attraction force generated by a current value decreases the.
- the application time of the negative boost voltage VH may be a combination of the method described above and the method of setting the current threshold.
- the switching elements 505 and 506 are energized, the boosted voltage VH is applied to the solenoid 205, and the current reaches 801.
- the boosted voltage VH has a larger current value that can be supplied to the solenoid 205 than the battery voltage VB, so the time from the timing t83 until the first drive current 801 is reached can be shortened.
- the control range can be expanded in the direction in which the displacement amount of the valve body 214 is small. Therefore, it becomes possible to control a minute injection amount.
- the boosted voltage VH and the battery voltage VB may be combined to generate the first drive current.
- the battery voltage VVB is applied to gently decrease the current, and the current value falls below a preset threshold value or increases after a certain time has elapsed.
- Current control is performed so that the voltage VH is applied and the current value reaches the current 801 again.
- the battery voltage VH is used to ensure that the current value reaches the current 801, and the current is gently reduced by applying the battery voltage VB, thereby increasing the current switching width in the first drive current and switching the voltage. The number of times can be reduced. As a result, the fluctuation of the magnetic attractive force can be reduced, and the accuracy of the injection amount is improved.
- valve body 214 and the mover 202 are configured to be relatively displaceable and are contained in the nozzle holder 201.
- the nozzle holder 201 has an end surface 303 that serves as a spring seat for the second spring 212.
- the force by the spring 910 is adjusted at the time of assembly by the pushing amount of the spring retainer 224 fixed to the inner diameter of the fixed core 207.
- the valve body 214 starts to open from the closed state, the displacement is small, and the valve opening operation that increases the differential pressure is performed.
- the peak current value I peak stop timing t 13 the valve body 214 is slower than the timing t12 to start opening, can be secured magnetic attraction force at the timing when the differential pressure increases, the stability during valve opening Can be improved.
- the displacement amount and the injection period of the valve body 214 in the half lift region can be accurately controlled, and the accuracy of the injection amount is increased, so that the effect of suppressing PN is increased.
- the mover 202 When the mover 202 displaces the gap G6, the mover 202 collides with the fixed core 207, and the mover 202 and the valve body 214 reach the maximum height position. The effect of the mover 202 colliding with the valve body 214 to open the valve is the same as described in the first embodiment. However, in the configuration shown in the fourth embodiment, there are no parts of the third spring 234 and the intermediate member 320. The number of parts is small and the cost can be reduced. However, when the mover 202 collides with the stator 207, the second spring 1150 does not act in the valve opening direction that suppresses the bounce of the mover 202, and biases the mover 202 in the valve closing direction. The bounce is difficult to converge with the valve body 214.
- the detection of the valve opening completion timing is performed by detecting the valve opening completion timing described in the separate structure of the valve body 214 and the movable element 202 even in the configuration of the movable valve in which the valve body 214 and the movable element 202 are integrated. It can be detected by the same principle.
- the peak current is set so as not to reach the target current value 1210 set in advance in the IC 502 during the period when the voltage value 1201 is supplied from the battery voltage source VB after the application of the negative boost voltage VH is stopped. It is preferable to adjust the value I peak and the current interruption period T2. Due to this effect, if the drive current reaches the target current value 1210 before the valve element 214 reaches the maximum opening, the drive device is controlled to keep the current 1210 constant. Since the value repeatedly passes through the zero point, it is possible to solve the problem that the change in the induced electromotive force cannot be detected by the differential value of the drive current.
- the valve opening completion timing is determined depending on the profile of the mover 202 variable that determines the valve opening start timing of the valve body 214 and the differential pressure acting on the mover 202 and the valve body 214. Due to the influence of the dimensional tolerance of each fuel injector, the sensitivity of the fuel pressure and the valve opening completion timing is different for each fuel injector.
- the relationship between the fuel pressure and the valve opening completion timing is detected for each fuel injection device of each cylinder, and the stop timing of the first drive current is determined based on the detection information. As a result, it is possible to improve the injection amount accuracy by stabilizing the valve body 214 at the half lift, and to reduce the bounce of the valve body 214 caused by the full lift, thereby ensuring the continuity of the flow rate and improving the drivability.
- Requirement for multistage injection is high under conditions such as cold start and high rotation / high load, and a smaller injection amount is required.
- At high rotation / high load knocks caused by self-ignition before ignition by a spark plug attached in the cylinder, due to the high temperature / pressure increase of the unburned gas while the flame in the engine cylinder propagates. Since it is easy to generate
- fuel injection is performed under half lift conditions, so that the divided injection interval can be reduced, and high temperature mixing is achieved by the intake air cooling effect of fuel injection at an appropriate timing. The air is cooled and the knock suppression effect is enhanced.

中間部材220の上方に位置するキャップ232の上端部には径方向に張り出した鍔部332Aが形成されており、鍔部332Aの下端面に第3のばね234の他端部が当接するばね座が構成されている。キャップ232の鍔部332Aの下端面から下方に筒状部332Cが形成されており、筒状部332Cに弁体214の上部が圧入固定されている。
スプリング210の初期荷重が調整された状態で、固定コア207の下端面が可動子202の上端面に対して約40乃至100ミクロン程度の磁気吸引ギャップG1を隔てて対面するように構成されている。なお図中では寸法の比率を無視して拡大して表示している。
ソレノイド205に電流が供給されると、磁気回路によって発生する磁界により、固定コア207と可動子202との間に磁束が通過し、可動子202に磁気吸引力が作用する。可動子202に作用する磁気吸引力が、第3のばね234による荷重を越えるタイミングで、可動子202は、固定コア207の方向に変位を開始する。このとき、弁体214と弁座218が接触しているため、可動子202の運動は、燃料の流れが無い状態で行われ、燃料圧力による差圧力を受けている弁体214とは分離して行われる空走運動であるため、燃料の圧力などの影響を受けることがなく、高速に移動することが可能である。
また、第一のばね214の荷重は、エンジン筒内の燃焼圧が増加した場合であっても燃料の噴射を抑制するため、ばね荷重を強く設定する必要がある。すなわち閉弁状態において、第一のばね214の荷重が弁体214に作用しないことで、弁体214は高速に移動することが可能となる。
したがって、弁体214が閉弁状態から開弁開始されて変位が小さく、差圧力が大きくなる開弁動作がし難くなるタイミングで、弁体214の開弁が可動子202の空走運動によって衝撃的に行われるため、より高い燃料圧力が作用している状態でも開弁動作を行うことができる。あるいは、動作できることが必要な燃料圧力範囲に対して、より強い力に第1のばね210を設定することができる。第1のばね210をより強い力に設定することで、後述する閉弁動作に要する時間を短縮することができ、微小噴射量の制御に有効である。
)に到達すると、高電圧401の印加を停止する。
車載機器の通電などにより、バッテリ電圧VBが低下することによって可動子202に作用する磁気吸引力が低下し、可動子202および弁体214の変位が不安定になる場合がある。ピーク電流Ipeakを大きく設定することで、可動子202が弁体214に衝突する際の運動エネルギーを大きくでき、弁体214が開弁開始してからの可動子202に作用する磁気吸引力を増加することができ、弁体214の変位の安定性が向上し、噴射量の精度を高められる。タイミングt123の電流値を大きくすることで、可動子202に作用する磁気吸引力を高く保つことができるため、弁体214の安定性がさらに向上する。
