[0054] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Although some embodiments of the present application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present application can be implemented in various forms, and should not be interpreted as being limited to the embodiments described herein, on the contrary, these embodiments are provided for a more thorough and complete understanding of the present application. It should be understood that the drawings and embodiments of the present application are only for exemplary purposes, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application.

[0055] As used herein, the term "including" and its variations are open-ended, i.e., "including but not limited to." The term "based on" means "based, at least in part, on." The term "one embodiment" means "at least one embodiment," the term "another embodiment" means "at least one additional embodiment," and the term "some embodiments" means "at least some embodiments." Other terms are defined in the following description.

[0056] The methanol injector control method provided in this application can be applied to computer devices capable of controlling methanol injectors, such as terminal devices and servers. Specifically, the terminal device can be an electronic control unit, a desktop computer, or the like; the server can be a standalone physical server, a server cluster composed of multiple physical servers, or a distributed system. The terminal device and server can be connected directly or indirectly via wired or wireless communication, which is not a limitation of this application.

[0057] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a cross-sectional diagram of a methanol injector provided in this application. An elastic member 101 is connected to a needle valve 102. Applying a voltage lifts the needle valve (the voltage acts on the elastic member, thereby lifting the needle valve), initiating fuel injection. When the voltage application ends, the needle valve falls onto the valve seat 103. During fuel injection, in addition to the force corresponding to the voltage, the needle valve is also subject to environmental factors such as the fuel pressure in the same direction as its downward movement and the intake pressure in the opposite direction.

[0058] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 A waveform diagram of a conventional voltage provided for this application. The conventional voltage may include a high-potential voltage and a low-potential voltage. The high-potential voltage is used to quickly pull up the needle valve, and the low-potential voltage is used to maintain the pulled-up state of the needle valve. It can be seen that after the conventional voltage is applied, the conventional voltage value quickly drops to 0 volts (V), so the force corresponding to the conventional voltage will quickly disappear, and the needle valve will fall freely, and will fall towards the valve seat at a very high speed, causing great wear on the valve seat, thereby affecting the service life of the valve seat and causing a decrease in the reliability of the methanol injector.

[0059] Therefore, the present application provides a methanol injector control method and related devices. The present application no longer allows the needle valve to fall freely and impact the valve seat after the voltage drive ends, but applies force during the falling process to reduce the impact and wear on the valve seat and improve the reliability of the methanol injector. The details are explained below.

[0060] The conventional voltage parameter and the anti-pulling voltage parameter are acquired, so that the control process of the methanol injector can be accurately performed according to the voltage parameters. According to the conventional voltage parameter, a conventional voltage indicated by the conventional voltage parameter is applied to pull up the needle valve of the methanol injector, so that the methanol is injected based on the pulling up of the needle valve, and the fuel supply requirement of the methanol engine is ensured. During the falling of the needle valve, according to the anti-pulling voltage parameter, an anti-pulling voltage indicated by the anti-pulling voltage parameter is applied to the needle valve, so that the needle valve is subjected to a force opposite to the falling direction during the falling, the speed of the needle valve falling to the valve seat is reduced, the impact on the valve seat is reduced, the wear problem of the valve seat caused by high-speed impact is reduced, the service life of the methanol injector is prolonged, and the reliability of the methanol injector is improved.

[0061] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 3 A method flowchart of a methanol injector control method provided in the application can include S301-S303.

[0062] S301: acquiring a conventional voltage parameter and an anti-pulling voltage parameter.

[0063] The conventional voltage parameter is a parameter set for indicating a conventional voltage application process, and the anti-pulling voltage parameter is a parameter set for indicating an anti-pulling voltage application process.

[0064] S302: according to the conventional voltage parameter, a conventional voltage indicated by the conventional voltage parameter is applied to pull up the needle valve of the methanol injector.

[0065] The needle valve is a component for controlling fuel injection.

[0066] According to the conventional voltage parameter, an instruction is sent to the methanol injector to generate a force for pulling up the needle valve through electromagnetic action. The conventional voltage can generally include a high-voltage for quickly pulling up the needle valve and a low-voltage for maintaining the pulled-up state of the needle valve. For example, according to the conventional voltage parameter, a high-voltage of 50V is applied to quickly pull up the needle valve, and then a low-voltage of 25V is applied to maintain the pulled-up state of the needle valve. In response to the pulling up of the needle valve, the fuel starts to be injected.

[0067] When the conventional voltage application ends, the voltage value generally returns to 0V, the needle valve is no longer subjected to the force for pulling up corresponding to the conventional voltage, and starts to fall under the action of gravity. Thus, by applying the conventional voltage indicated by the conventional voltage parameter, the needle valve of the methanol injector is pulled up, and the methanol is injected based on the pulling up of the needle valve, so that the fuel supply requirement of the methanol engine is ensured.

[0068] S303: during the falling of the needle valve, according to the anti-pulling voltage parameter, an anti-pulling voltage indicated by the anti-pulling voltage parameter is applied to the needle valve to apply a force corresponding to the anti-pulling voltage to the needle valve.

[0069] In response to the end of the application of the regular voltage, the needle valve begins to fall under the action of gravity. During the falling of the needle valve, according to the anti-pulling voltage parameter, an instruction is sent to the methanol injector to generate a force for delaying the falling speed of the needle valve through electromagnetic action. The direction of the force is opposite to the falling direction of the needle valve.

[0070] For example, according to the anti-pulling voltage parameter, 10 milliseconds (ms) after the end of the application of the regular voltage, the application of the anti-pulling voltage begins. The falling speed of the needle valve is 5 meters per second (m / s). The anti-pulling voltage of 20V is applied. The application of the anti-pulling voltage of 20V to the needle valve corresponds to a force. The falling speed of the needle valve is 3 m / s. Thus, the speed of the needle valve falling into the valve seat is smaller than the speed of the needle valve falling into the valve seat without the application of the anti-pulling voltage.

[0071] Referring to Figure 4 , Figure 4 A waveform diagram of the application of the anti-pulling voltage is provided. After the end of the application of the regular voltage, the anti-pulling voltage is applied for a waiting time. The maintained time is a maintained time. By applying the anti-pulling voltage, a force opposite to the falling direction of the needle valve is applied to the needle valve. The speed of the needle valve falling into the valve seat is reduced. The impact on the valve seat is reduced. The degree of wear of the valve seat is reduced. The reliability of the methanol injector is improved.

[0072] Therefore, the application provides a methanol injector control method. Instead of allowing the needle valve to freely fall and impact the valve seat after the end of the voltage driving, a force is applied during the falling to reduce the impact and wear on the valve seat. The reliability of the methanol injector is improved. The following is a specific description.

[0073] The regular voltage parameter and the anti-pulling voltage parameter are obtained. The control process of the methanol injector can be accurately performed according to the voltage parameters. According to the regular voltage parameter, the needle valve of the methanol injector is pulled up by applying the regular voltage indicated by the regular voltage parameter. Methanol is injected based on the pulling up of the needle valve. The fuel supply demand of the methanol engine is ensured. During the falling of the needle valve, according to the anti-pulling voltage parameter, a force is applied to the needle valve by applying the anti-pulling voltage indicated by the anti-pulling voltage parameter. The needle valve receives a force opposite to the falling direction during the falling. The speed of the needle valve falling into the valve seat is reduced. The impact on the valve seat is reduced. The wear problem of the valve seat caused by high-speed impact is reduced. Thus, the service life of the methanol injector is prolonged. The reliability of the methanol injector is improved.

[0074] The application provides a way of applying a multi-section anti-pulling voltage. Referring to A1-A2:

[0075] A1: According to the first anti-pulling voltage parameter, a first anti-pulling voltage corresponding to the first anti-pulling voltage is applied to the needle valve by applying the first anti-pulling voltage indicated by the first anti-pulling voltage parameter.

[0076] The first pull-back voltage parameter is a parameter set indicating a first pull-back voltage application process.

[0077] A2: After the first pull-back voltage indicated by the first pull-back voltage parameter is applied, a second pull-back voltage corresponding to an action force is applied to the needle valve by applying a second pull-back voltage indicated by a second pull-back voltage parameter.

[0078] The second pull-back voltage parameter is a parameter set indicating a second pull-back voltage application process. The second pull-back voltage application process is later than the first pull-back voltage application process.

[0079] For example, according to the first pull-back voltage parameter and the second pull-back voltage parameter, in the process of falling of the needle valve, a first pull-back voltage of 6V is applied first, and maintained for 5ms, and 2ms after the first pull-back voltage application ends, a second pull-back voltage of 4V is applied, and maintained for 2ms, and the falling speed of the needle valve is continuously slowed down.

[0080] By applying a plurality of pull-back voltages, the falling speed of the needle valve can be slowed down more accurately and multiple times, so that the process of falling of the needle valve can be slowed down more smoothly, thereby reducing the impact on the valve seat.

[0081] In a possible implementation, the application also provides a specific implementation of applying a plurality of pull-back voltages, see B1-B3:

[0082] B1: After the first pull-back voltage indicated by the first pull-back voltage parameter is applied, the falling speed of the needle valve is obtained.

[0083] The falling speed is the speed of the needle valve in the falling process, which can be obtained by a sensor or other monitoring device. For example, immediately after the first pull-back voltage is applied, the falling speed of the needle valve is obtained as 2m / s.

[0084] B2: The second pull-back voltage parameter is adjusted according to the falling speed to obtain a third pull-back voltage parameter.

[0085] By adjusting the second pull-back voltage parameter, a third pull-back voltage parameter suitable for the current working condition can be obtained. For example, when the falling speed is too large, the voltage value of the second pull-back voltage can be increased, and when the falling speed is too small, the voltage value of the second pull-back voltage can be reduced to prevent the second pull-back voltage value from being too large to produce a pull-up effect and instead increase the impact on the valve seat.

[0086] The application does not limit the waveform of the pull-back voltage. The waveform of the third pull-back voltage can include a straight line descending waveform, a stepped descending waveform, an oblique line descending waveform, etc. The stepped descending waveform and the stepped descending waveform more stably slow down the falling speed of the needle valve.

[0087] B3: applying a third counter-pulling voltage corresponding to the third counter-pulling voltage to the needle valve by applying a third counter-pulling voltage indicated by a third counter-pulling voltage parameter.

[0088] By obtaining the falling speed of the needle valve after the first counter-pulling voltage is applied and adjusting the second counter-pulling voltage parameter according to the falling speed, different working conditions and changes can be dynamically adapted, and the flexibility of applying the counter-pulling voltage is improved.

[0089] The counter-pulling voltage parameter can include a counter-pulling voltage value, a waiting time length, and a maintaining time length. The present application provides a determination and application method for the counter-pulling voltage value, see C1-C3:

[0090] C1: obtaining a first corresponding relationship between a pressure difference value and a counter-pulling voltage value, and the pressure difference value.

[0091] The pressure difference value is used to represent the difference between the fuel pressure and the intake pressure. The fuel pressure is the force acting on the needle valve in the same direction as the falling direction, and the intake pressure is the force acting on the needle valve in the opposite direction of the falling direction. The first corresponding relationship is a pre-established corresponding relationship, which describes that different pressure difference values correspond to different counter-pulling voltage values.

[0092] The pressure difference value has multiple forms, including a difference value, a ratio value, etc. For example, the pressure difference value can be equal to the fuel pressure minus the intake pressure.

[0093] C2: determining the counter-pulling voltage value based on the first corresponding relationship according to the pressure difference value. In the first corresponding relationship, the greater the pressure difference value, the greater the counter-pulling voltage value.

[0094] The greater the counter-pulling voltage value, the greater the force corresponding to the counter-pulling voltage, and the greater the force, the better the deceleration effect.

[0095] C3: applying a counter-pulling voltage to the needle valve by applying a counter-pulling voltage according to the counter-pulling voltage value.

[0096] The greater the pressure difference value, the greater the acceleration of the needle valve, and the greater the potential falling speed of the needle valve. Based on the first corresponding relationship, the counter-pulling voltage value can be increased to increase the force acting on the needle valve and improve the deceleration effect of the needle valve, thereby reducing the impact and wear on the valve seat.

[0097] By obtaining the pressure difference value in real time and adjusting the counter-pulling voltage according to the pressure difference value, the deceleration effect of the needle valve can be dynamically adjusted according to environmental factors that affect the speed of the needle valve, thereby increasing the flexibility and adaptability of the needle valve deceleration.

[0098] The waiting time length is the time interval between the end of the conventional voltage application and the start of the counter-pulling voltage application, and the maintaining time length is the time length of the continuous application of the counter-pulling voltage. The present application provides a determination and application method for the waiting time length and the maintaining time length, see D1-D5:

[0099] D1: obtaining a second correspondence relationship between the pressure difference value and the waiting time length, a third correspondence relationship between the pressure difference value and the maintaining time length, and the pressure difference value.

[0100] The second correspondence relationship is a pre-established correspondence relationship, which describes that different pressure difference values correspond to different waiting time lengths, and the third correspondence relationship is a pre-established correspondence relationship, which describes that different pressure difference values correspond to different maintaining time lengths.

[0101] D2: determining the waiting time length according to the pressure difference value based on the second correspondence relationship, wherein the greater the pressure difference value, the shorter the waiting time length in the second correspondence relationship.

[0102] The greater the pressure difference value indicates that the acceleration of the needle valve is greater, the potential falling speed of the needle valve is greater, and the time left for the response of the pull-back voltage is shorter. If the waiting time length is too long, it may cause the needle valve to fall into the valve seat again to apply the pull-back voltage, thereby not achieving the effect of decelerating the needle valve. In the second correspondence relationship, the greater the pressure difference value, the shorter the waiting time length, so that the pull-back voltage can be applied in time.

[0103] D3: determining the maintaining time length according to the pressure difference value based on the third correspondence relationship, wherein the greater the pressure difference value, the longer the maintaining time length in the third correspondence relationship.

[0104] The greater the pressure difference value indicates that the acceleration of the needle valve is greater, and the potential falling speed of the needle valve is greater. If the maintaining time length is too short, it may cause the deceleration effect to be not good enough, and the falling speed into the valve seat still has a large impact. In the third correspondence relationship, the greater the pressure difference value, the longer the maintaining time length, so that the time of applying the pull-back voltage can be extended to provide a better deceleration effect.

[0105] D4: waiting for the waiting time length after the end of the pull-back voltage indicated by the pull-back voltage parameter according to the waiting time length.

[0106] D5: in response to the end of the waiting process, applying the pull-back voltage according to the maintaining time length by maintaining the maintaining time length according to the pull-back voltage value, and applying the pull-back voltage corresponding to the force on the needle valve.

[0107] By adjusting the waiting time length and the maintaining time length according to the pressure difference value, the second correspondence relationship and the third correspondence relationship, the effectiveness of applying the pull-back voltage is ensured, the deceleration effect on the needle valve is improved, the impact on the valve seat is further reduced, and the wear of the valve seat is reduced.

[0108] The application also provides an implementation manner for updating the maintaining time length according to the waiting time length, see E1-E4:

[0109] E1: if the waiting duration is greater than or equal to the first preset duration, increase the maintenance duration to obtain an updated maintenance duration.

[0110] The first preset duration is used to represent that the waiting duration is too long.

[0111] If the waiting duration is greater than or equal to the first preset duration, it means that the waiting duration is too long, and the needle valve falls too fast. At this time, the maintenance duration needs to be increased to obtain an updated maintenance duration, so as to prolong the time of maintaining the reverse pulling voltage and prolong the deceleration duration of the needle valve, thereby improving the deceleration effect of the needle valve.

[0112] E2: if the waiting duration is less than or equal to the second preset duration, decrease the maintenance duration to obtain an updated maintenance duration.

[0113] The second preset duration is used to represent that the waiting duration is too short, and the second preset duration is less than the first preset duration.

[0114] If the waiting duration is less than or equal to the first preset duration, it means that the waiting duration is too short, and the needle valve just starts to fall, and the falling speed is small. At this time, the maintenance duration needs to be reduced to obtain an updated maintenance duration, so as to prevent the needle valve from being pulled up without achieving the effect of deceleration.

[0115] E3: if the waiting duration is greater than the second preset duration and less than the first preset duration, the maintenance duration is determined as the updated maintenance duration.

[0116] If the waiting duration is greater than the second preset duration and less than the first preset duration, it means that the waiting duration is moderate, and no adjustment is needed. Therefore, the maintenance duration is determined as the updated maintenance duration.
