It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0027] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides an air filter regeneration control method, which is applied to an air filter regeneration system, the air filter regeneration system comprising: a first pressure sensor 500 arranged at an air filter outlet 104, a control module 700 connected to the pressure sensor, a regeneration gear switch 800 connected to the control module 700, and a regeneration purge device connected to the control module 700 and connected to the inside of the air filter 100, the control module 700 is also connected to the engine 600; the air filter regeneration control method comprises:

[0028] S1 controls the first pressure sensor 500 to obtain the negative pressure value at the air filter outlet 104;

[0029] S2 obtains the engine status, the regeneration gear switch status and the regeneration purge device status;

[0030] S3: the control module 700 determines whether the air filter 100 is in a state requiring regeneration according to the negative pressure value at the air filter outlet 104;

[0031] S4: When the air filter 100 is in a state requiring regeneration, the regeneration purge device is turned on or off according to the state of the regeneration purge device, the state of the engine and the state of the regeneration gear switch.

[0032] Specifically, it can automatically complete the maintenance of the air filter 100, quickly realize the function of the filter element 101, reduce the intake resistance, improve the power and fuel economy of the engine 600, and reduce the user's removal of the filter element 101 for dust blowing and regeneration, thereby reducing the user's burden.

[0033] Even when the air filter 100 is in a state where regeneration is required, the control module 700 also determines whether to implement regeneration according to the state of the regeneration purge device, the state of the engine, and the state of the regeneration gear switch. The regeneration effect of the air filter 100 can be ensured by combining the state of the purge device, and the state of the engine can prevent the vehicle from regenerating during driving, thereby ensuring the driving safety of the vehicle; the setting of the regeneration gear switch 800 makes it mainly in the hands of the driver whether the vehicle regenerates, and the vehicle can be prevented from regenerating in unsuitable environments and other conditions.

[0034] As an optional embodiment, the control module 700 determines whether the air filter 100 is in a state requiring regeneration based on the negative pressure value at the air filter outlet 104, including: if the negative pressure value at the air filter outlet 104 does not reach the preset pressure value of the outlet, the air filter 100 is in a state not requiring regeneration.

[0035] As an optional implementation, the control module 700 determines whether the air filter 100 is in a state requiring regeneration based on the negative pressure value at the air filter outlet 104, including: if the negative pressure value at the air filter outlet 104 reaches a preset pressure value of the outlet, the air filter 100 is in a state requiring regeneration.

[0036] Whether the air filter 100 needs to be regenerated is determined by the magnitude relationship between the negative pressure value at the air filter outlet 104 and the preset pressure value at the air filter outlet, thereby improving the intelligence level of the air filter regeneration. If the negative pressure value at the air filter outlet 104 is less than the preset pressure value at the air filter outlet, it indicates that the air filter 100 needs to be purged and regenerated; if the negative pressure value at the air filter outlet 104 is greater than the preset pressure value at the air filter outlet, it indicates that the air filter 100 does not need to be purged and regenerated.

[0037] As an optional embodiment, when the air filter 100 is in a state requiring regeneration, the regeneration purge device is turned on or off according to the state of the regeneration purge device, the engine state and the state of the regeneration gear switch, including: if the engine 600 is in a flameout state, the regeneration gear switch 800 is turned on, and the regeneration purge device is controlled to be turned on to regenerate the air filter 100; if the engine 600 is not in a flameout state, and / or the regeneration gear switch 800 is turned off, the regeneration purge device is controlled to be turned off.

[0038] As an optional embodiment, the regeneration purge device includes an air tank 201, and the state of the regeneration purge device includes: the pressure state of the air tank 201; the opening or closing according to the state of the regeneration purge device, the engine state and the state of the regeneration gear switch also includes: obtaining the pressure value of the air tank 201; judging whether the pressure value of the air tank 201 reaches the preset pressure value of the air tank 201; if the pressure value of the air tank 201 reaches the preset pressure value of the air tank 201 and the engine 600 is in an off state, the regeneration gear switch 800 is opened, and the regeneration purge device is controlled to start to regenerate the air filter 100.

[0039] Specifically, if the pressure value of the gas tank 201 of the regeneration and purge device does not reach the preset pressure value of the gas tank 201, it means that the gas content in the gas tank 201 of the regeneration and purge device is too low to perform normal purge work. By reading the pressure value of the second pressure sensor 202, the gas content in the gas tank 201 is judged and then whether to purge and regenerate is determined. The purge and regeneration effect is guaranteed, and the intelligence level of the purge and regeneration of the air filter 100 is improved.

[0040] As an optional embodiment, it also includes: setting the time period between the end of regeneration and the moment when the negative pressure value at the air filter outlet 104 reaches the preset pressure limit as a preset period; determining the cumulative running time of the engine 600 in the previous preset period; and judging the state of the filter element 101 of the air filter 100 based on the cumulative running time of the engine 600 in the previous preset period.

[0041] As an optional embodiment, the state of the filter element 101 of the air filter 100 is determined based on the cumulative running time of the engine 600 in the previous preset time period and the negative pressure value at the air outlet 104 of the air filter, including: if the cumulative running time of the engine 600 in the previous preset time period is greater than or equal to the preset cumulative time and the negative pressure value at the air outlet 104 of the air filter does not reach the preset pressure value of the air outlet, the filter element 101 of the air filter 100 is in a state where it can continue to be used; if the cumulative running time of the engine 600 in the previous preset time period is less than the preset cumulative time, the filter element 101 of the air filter 100 is in a state where it needs to be replaced.

[0042] As an optional embodiment, the air filter regeneration system also includes a vehicle networking module 1000, which is connected to the control module 700. When the air filter 100 is in a state where regeneration is not required, the vehicle networking module 1000 outputs a signal used to indicate that the air filter 100 is in a good state; when the air filter 100 is in a state where regeneration is required, the vehicle networking module 1000 outputs a signal used to indicate that the air filter 100 needs to be regenerated.

[0043] As an optional embodiment, the air filter regeneration system also includes a display module 900, which is connected to the control module 700; when the air filter 100 is in a state where regeneration is not required, the display module 900 outputs a signal for indicating that the air filter 100 is in a good state; when the air filter 100 is in a state where regeneration is required and the regeneration gear switch 800 is in a closed state, the display module 900 outputs a signal for indicating that the air filter 100 needs to be regenerated and the regeneration gear switch 800 is closed; when the air filter 100 is in a state where regeneration is required and the regeneration gear switch 800 is in an open state, the display module 900 outputs a signal for indicating that the air filter 100 is being regenerated.

[0044] As an optional implementation, it also includes: judging the engine state by the engine speed of the engine 600; if the engine speed of the engine 600 is 0, the engine 600 is in an off state.

[0045] Specifically, as an optional and specific implementation, air enters the air filter 100 through the air filter inlet 103, and after being filtered by the filter element 101, clean air flows out from the air filter outlet 104. As dust accumulates on the filter element 101, the pressure value at the air filter outlet 104 increases, and the first pressure sensor 500 transmits the negative pressure value to the control module 700. The control module 700 integrates the working state of the engine 600 and the position of the regeneration gear switch 800, and outputs relevant signals to the display module 900 and the vehicle networking module 1000 according to the strategy, and opens the solenoid valve 300, and uses the gas in the gas tank 201 to purge the dust on the filter element 101, so that the filter element 101 meets the use requirements. The control module 700 determines whether the gas pressure in the gas tank 201 meets the regeneration of the air filter 100 through the signal input by the second pressure sensor 202. The regeneration gear switch 800 has two gear states: "off" and "regeneration". When the gear switch is in the closed gear, even if the filter element 101 needs to be regenerated, only a reminder is output, and the solenoid valve 300 is not opened. When the regeneration gear switch 800 is in the regeneration gear, the control module 700 opens the solenoid valve 300 to regenerate the filter element 101 by judging that the conditions are met. The control module 700 judges whether the engine 600 is in a running or flameout state through the speed signal input by the engine 600.

[0046] When the regeneration gear switch 800 is in the off state or in the regeneration state, if the minimum pressure value of the first pressure sensor 500 during the operation of the engine 600 is ≥ the preset limit, and the cumulative running time of the engine 600 in the previous preset time period is ≥ the preset limit, the vehicle networking module 1000 outputs a signal that the air filter 100 is in good condition.

At this time, the regeneration purge device is turned off, and the driver can find a suitable place to shut down and regenerate; at the same time, the vehicle networking module 1000 outputs a signal that the air filter 100 needs to be regenerated.
