COMBUSTION ENGINE
The present invention shows a combustion engine comprising an exhaust gas aftertreatment system having at least one injector for injecting a reductant into an exhaust gas passage, and an emergency stop that cuts down the energy supply of the components of the engine upon activation, wherein the combustion engine comprises an injector extraction system that extracts the injector from the exhaust gas passage when the emergency stop is activated.
Exhaust aftertreatment system
An exhaust aftertreatment system for an internal combustion engine includes an outer casing having an exhaust gas inlet and an exhaust gas outlet between which a fluid flow path for exhaust gases is provided, a selective catalytic reduction unit provided in the fluid flow path for reducing nitrogen oxides, a reductant dosing device for adding reductant to the exhaust flow upstream of the selective catalytic reduction unit, and a rotatable mixer device for mixing the reductant with exhaust gases upstream of the selective catalytic reduction unit, an air inlet valve provided upstream of the mixer device for introducing air into the fluid flow path, and an electric motor arranged for rotating the mixer device to create a suction of air into the fluid flow path via the air inlet valve.
EXHAUST DEVICE EQUIPPED WITH SPARK ARRESTER
According to an aspect of the present invention, it is possible to easily support a spark arrester and prevent an occurrence of damage or sound in the spark arrester due to the effect of an exhaust pressure or external vibration. In a spark arrester, at least a flange part is formed of a spring member. The flange part includes a bent part that is telescopically bent by elastic deformation in a direction along a flow of exhaust gas. The bent part is supported between a tail pipe and a muffler in a state where the elastic deformation of the bent part is allowed.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ADJUSTING EXHAUST GAS FLOW THROUGH AN AFTERTREATMENT DEVICE
Methods and systems are provided for a flow device shaped to adjust flow to radial positions of an emission control device. In one example, a system may include where the flow device comprises a plurality of inner openings that align while a plurality of outer openings are misaligned to flow exhaust gas proximal to a central axis of an exhaust passage, and where the plurality of outer openings are aligned and the plurality of inner openings are misaligned to flow exhaust gas distal to the central axis.
Systems and methods for controlling exhaust flow through dual after treatment device
Systems and methods for controlling a valve for directing an exhaust gas stream through an exhaust duct having a first after treatment device and a second after treatment device in an exhaust system. The method includes receiving sensor signals from a sensor coupled to the second after treatment device. The method includes processing the sensor signals to determine a temperature of the second after treatment device, and determining a position for the valve based on whether the temperature exceeds a pre-defined threshold for the temperature of the second after treatment device. The method includes outputting a control signal to move the valve to a first position in which the exhaust gas stream flows through a first portion of the first after treatment device or a second position in which the exhaust gas stream flows through a second portion of the first after treatment device based on the temperature.
COOLING DEVICE FOR ADDITIVE INJECTION VALVE
A cooling device configured to cool, using a coolant, an injection valve that injects an additive includes a rotary member surrounding an outer periphery of the injection valve and extending along the injection valve. The rotary member is supported to be rotatable around the injection valve. A clearance between an outer peripheral surface of the injection valve and an inner peripheral surface of the rotary member defines a passage through which the coolant flows. The rotary member has a rotation imparting part that causes the rotary member to rotate about the injection valve in response to a flow of the coolant.
MUFFLER VALVE DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
A muffler valve device for a vehicle may include a chamber fixed at a surface of the wall, a guide rod provided in the chamber and attached at the surface of the wall, a fixing member attached at one end portion of the guide rod and fixing the chamber, a valve disposed slidably on the guide rod between the surface of the wall and the fixing member, and an elastic member located between the valve and the fixing member to provide an elastic force to the valve.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR AN ENGINE
Methods and systems are provided for an exhaust bypass valve and a heat exchanger upstream of a three-way valve. In one example, a method may include flowing exhaust gas through one or more of an exhaust passage, bypass passage, recirculating passage, and EGR passage based on positions of a three-way valve and a bypass valve.
