In forced regeneration control of an exhaust gas purification device, data for control such as the number of meshes of a data map and the number of data maps for forced regeneration control is reduced and occurrence of torque shock is avoided by smoothly changing a fuel pressure. In the forced regeneration control of the exhaust gas purification device, when an operation state of an internal combustion engine is in a high-load operation state, normal injection control by stopping multi injection is carried out and according to a rotation speed and a load of the internal combustion engine, a region for control is divided into a multi-injection control region, a transition region, and a normal injection control region, and in the transition region, data for fuel pressure control obtained by interpolation of data for fuel pressure control on the multi-injection control region side and data for fuel pressure control on the normal injection control region side is used.

Control method of exhaust gas purification system and exhaust gas purification system

An exhaust gas purification system includes a diesel particulate filter ('DPF') which collects particulate matter ('PM') in exhaust gas, an exhaust pipe injector which performs exhaust pipe injection, and a DPF regeneration control unit which performs temperature rise control of an exhaust gas temperature by the exhaust pipe injection to regenerate the DPF when the PM collected by the DPF exceeds a fixed amount and which, during the regeneration, integrates an amount of time during which the exhaust gas temperature exceeds a PM combustion temperature and completes the regeneration when an integrated value thereof reaches a set regeneration completion value. The DPF regeneration control unit aborts the regeneration when, during regeneration, a total amount of the exhaust pipe injection exceeds an upper limit before the integrated value.

Exhaust gas purification system

An exhaust gas purification system with which a frequency of diesel particulate filter ('DPF') regeneration requests can be reduced during long low idle regeneration, thereby improving convenience, including a control unit that performs regeneration control on a DPF provided at an exhaust pipe of an engine. The control unit includes a particulate matter ('PM') accumulation amount predictor for predicting the amount of PM accumulated by calculating a cumulated value of the PM in an idling state. The control unit starts calculating the cumulated value of the PM by the PM accumulation amount predictor after a first predetermined time has elapsed since a detection of the idling state.

Forced regeneration start timing of a diesel particulate filter for purifying particulate matter in exhaust gas is judged based on a comparison of a differential pressure across the diesel particulate filter with a predetermined differential pressure threshold across the filter. The predetermined differential pressure threshold is set by multiplying a reference differential pressure threshold by a coefficient which varies stepwise or continuously depending on a mileage of a vehicle after previous forced regeneration. Consequently, particulate matter can be removed by burning while the amount of particulate matter accumulated unevenly in the filter is still small, and excessive temperature rise in the filter resulting from excessive accumulation of particulate matter during forced regeneration and melting-loss of the filter due to excessive temperature rise can be prevented.

Exhaust emission purification method and exhaust emission purification system

An exhaust emission purification system having a controller performing exhaust temperature rise control including multistage delay injection control for raising the exhaust temperature, if the exhaust gas temperature is lower than a predetermined judgment temperature, and performing particulate matter combustion removal control including post injection control, if the exhaust gas temperature becomes equal to or higher than the predetermined judgment temperature, when forced regeneration of a diesel particulate filter is carried out. The multistage delay injection control is forbidden when an idle operation state of an internal combustion engine occurs for a predetermined judgment time and a power take-off device is operating. A control method for exhaust emission purification is also provided sustaining a diesel particulate filter for purifying particulate matter in exhaust gas by executing forced regeneration while avoiding variation in engine speed, even if the power take-off device is operating during an extended idling operation.

Control method of exhaust emission purification system and exhaust emission purification system

An exhaust emission purification system and a related method of control, wherein an exhaust throttle valve is opened if an engine load reaches at least a predetermined first judgment value during execution of forced regeneration control, and generating an alarm of failure of the exhaust throttle valve if the engine load reaches at least a second judgment value which is larger than the predetermined first judgment value.
