Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle engineering, and more specifically, to a method and apparatus for controlling the mixture in a pre-combustion chamber, a vehicle, and a storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] In traditional spark-ignition engines, the spark plug directly ignites the combustible mixture in the main combustion chamber. However, due to the uneven distribution of the mixture and the limitation of the spark plug's ignition energy, the engine is prone to combustion instability and knocking under high load and high speed conditions, especially in modern engine designs that pursue high energy efficiency and low emissions. Pre-combustion chamber jet ignition technology, as a solution to improve ignition energy and combustion efficiency, pre-ignites the mixture in the pre-combustion chamber and then injects the high-temperature, high-pressure combustion products into the main combustion chamber through a small connecting orifice between the pre-combustion chamber and the main combustion chamber, thereby promoting rapid combustion of the mixture in the main combustion chamber. This method can significantly improve combustion speed, reduce incomplete combustion, thereby reducing emissions and improving engine performance.

[0044] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0046] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an embodiment of a mixture control method for a pre-combustion chamber is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart in the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions. Furthermore, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be executed in a different order than that shown here.

[0047] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a pre-combustion chamber mixture control method according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0048] Step S102: Obtain the current driving conditions of the vehicle.

[0049] The aforementioned driving conditions can refer to the vehicle's operating state under different driving conditions, such as idling, acceleration, deceleration, constant speed, etc., but are not limited to these.

[0050] In one optional embodiment, considering that the engine has different requirements for air-fuel mixture concentration under different driving conditions, if the air-fuel mixture concentration is not adjusted according to the different driving conditions, it may lead to a decrease in ignition efficiency and incomplete combustion, thereby affecting the stability and efficiency of the engine. Therefore, the engine control system (hereinafter referred to as the control system) can obtain the current driving conditions of the vehicle through pre-set sensors.

[0051] For example, to monitor vehicle speed in real time, the aforementioned sensor could be a vehicle speed sensor, which can acquire vehicle speed information in real time and report it to the control system. The control system can then determine the vehicle's current driving condition based on the current vehicle speed information.

[0052] For example, to monitor the engine's status in real time, the aforementioned sensor could be an engine speed sensor. This sensor monitors the engine's rotational speed, identifies the engine load, and reports the identified load to the control system. The control system can then determine the vehicle's current operating condition based on the current engine load.

[0053] For example, to monitor the vehicle's driving status in real time, the aforementioned sensors can be a combination of an accelerator pedal position sensor and a brake pedal position sensor. The accelerator pedal position sensor detects the driver's input to the accelerator pedal, indirectly reflecting the vehicle's acceleration needs, while the brake pedal position sensor detects the degree of brake pedal depressing, used to identify deceleration or braking. Both sensors can report their real-time monitoring data to the control system, which can then determine the vehicle's current driving condition based on the current acceleration needs or braking status.

[0054] In another alternative embodiment, to improve the intelligence of vehicle operation, the control system may also include a pre-trained self-learning and prediction model based on artificial intelligence algorithms. This model predicts the driver's future behavior based on historical driving data and personal driving habits, and adjusts driving condition judgment and engine control strategies in a more intelligent way.

[0055] For example, the vehicle's computer can contain a pre-trained deep learning algorithm model that can learn the driver's behavior patterns (such as aggressive driving, economical driving, etc.), enabling the control system to more intelligently predict and adapt to the driver's driving habits, thereby improving the driving experience and vehicle performance.

[0056] For example, the onboard computer can contain a pre-trained machine learning algorithm model that can predict possible future driving conditions based on the road conditions ahead. If the GPS (Global Positioning System) indicates that there is a downhill section ahead, the control system can predictively adjust the engine speed and throttle response to achieve more efficient energy management.

[0057] In another alternative embodiment, considering that excessive computational load on the control system may affect its data processing and task execution, thereby increasing safety hazards during vehicle operation, the control system can also upload driving data to the cloud for data analysis. Based on big data and cloud computing technologies, the system can optimize the judgment of driving status, thereby realizing remote calculation and analysis of data.

[0058] For example, to reduce the computational load on the control system, the system can transmit driving data to a cloud server via an onboard communication module (such as a cellular network module or Wi-Fi module). This transmission of driving data can be real-time. After receiving the data, the cloud server can process and analyze it based on its powerful computing resources to determine the vehicle's current driving condition and return it to the vehicle's control system, thereby achieving intelligent and efficient driving condition identification.

[0059] Step S104: In response to the driving condition being a preset condition, the current air-fuel mixture state of the mixing chamber and the current load state of the engine are obtained. The preset condition is used to characterize that the engine is currently providing power to the vehicle, the air-fuel mixture state is used to characterize whether the concentration of the air-fuel mixture contained in the mixing chamber is greater than or equal to a preset concentration, and the load state is used to characterize whether the engine's working efficiency is greater than or equal to a preset efficiency.

[0060] The aforementioned preset operating conditions can be pre-set vehicle operating states, such as idling or lean-burn conditions, but are not limited to these. The aforementioned air-fuel mixture state can be the degree of mixing between fuel and air. The aforementioned load state can be the engine's operating efficiency. The aforementioned preset concentration can be a pre-set fuel-air mixing ratio. The aforementioned preset efficiency can be a pre-set engine operating efficiency.

[0061] In one optional embodiment, considering that the air-fuel mixture state (concentration and uniformity) directly affects combustion efficiency and engine performance, and that the engine's required air-fuel mixture concentration varies under different driving conditions, the control system needs to acquire the air-fuel mixture state and engine load state to dynamically adjust the engine's operating mode, thereby improving engine performance. The control system can first determine the acquired current driving conditions. When the driving conditions meet the preset conditions, the control system can further acquire the current air-fuel mixture state in the mixing chamber. This state can be used to characterize whether the concentration of the air-fuel mixture in the mixing chamber is greater than or equal to a preset concentration. Simultaneously, the control system can acquire the current engine load state, which can be used to characterize whether the engine's operating efficiency is greater than or equal to a preset efficiency.

[0062] For example, the control system has already acquired the vehicle's current driving conditions. To implement more complex and precise control strategies to cope with different driving scenarios and needs, the control system can directly measure the oxygen content in the air-fuel mixture based on an air-fuel ratio sensor pre-installed at the mixing chamber or its outlet, calculate the actual air-fuel ratio, thereby obtaining the current air-to-fuel ratio in the mixing chamber and determining the relationship between the concentration of the mixture and a preset concentration. Simultaneously, the control system can monitor the throttle opening based on a throttle position sensor, thereby obtaining the current engine load state based on the throttle opening, and determining the relationship between the engine efficiency and a preset efficiency based on the load state.

[0063] For example, the control system can use chemical sensors pre-installed at the mixing chamber or its outlet to detect and analyze the chemical components in the mixture to assess its concentration and quality, and determine the relationship between the concentration and a preset concentration. Simultaneously, the control system can use an engine speed sensor to obtain the engine's current load status and, based on this load status, determine the relationship between the engine's operating efficiency and a preset efficiency.

[0064] Step S106: Control the operation of the gas transmission device based on the mixed gas state and load state to control the mixed gas to enter the pre-combustion chamber, wherein the pre-combustion chamber is connected to the mixing chamber through the gas transmission device.

[0065] The aforementioned gas transmission device can be a device for transmitting the mixed gas from the intake system to the pre-combustion chamber, and for transmitting the high-temperature and high-pressure gas generated by combustion in the pre-combustion chamber to the main combustion chamber.

[0066] In an optional embodiment, considering that in related technologies, the air-fuel mixture concentration in the pre-combustion chamber is difficult to achieve the target state adapted to different driving conditions, thus affecting engine performance, the control system can control the operation of the gas transmission device based on the air-fuel mixture state and load state. The pre-combustion chamber can be connected to the mixing chamber via the gas transmission device; therefore, the detection system can control the air-fuel mixture entering the pre-combustion chamber by controlling the operation of the gas transmission device.

[0067] For example, if the aforementioned air-fuel mixture is not lean and the engine load is low, the control system can adjust the flow area of ​​the annular groove and the orifice in the hydraulic oil chamber by driving the motor, allowing the valve to open earlier. Simultaneously, the control system can also increase the flow area of ​​the oil passage and the oblique orifice by driving the motor, shortening the valve opening duration and ensuring a richer mixture enters the pre-combustion chamber.

[0068] For example, if the above driving conditions are not lean combustion conditions, the above air-fuel mixture is not lean mixture, and the above engine load is not low load, the control system can drive the motor to reduce the flow area of ​​the oil passage and the oblique hole, prolong the valve opening duration, and allow the lower concentration air-fuel mixture to enter the pre-combustion chamber.

[0069] In this embodiment of the invention, the current driving conditions of the vehicle are acquired; in response to the driving conditions being preset, the current air-fuel mixture state of the mixing chamber and the current engine load state are acquired; and the operation of the gas transmission device is controlled based on the air-fuel mixture state and load state to control the air-fuel mixture entering the pre-combustion chamber. By identifying different vehicle driving conditions and combining specific air-fuel mixture states and engine loads, the gas transmission device is dynamically adjusted, thereby improving the formation quality and concentration adjustment flexibility of the air-fuel mixture in the pre-combustion chamber. This achieves the technical effect of highly flexible control of the air-fuel mixture concentration under different engine conditions and combustion modes, and solves the technical problem of poor engine performance caused by poor air-fuel mixture formation quality in the pre-combustion chamber.

[0070] Furthermore, the gas transmission device includes: a phase control shaft and a controllable valve, the phase control shaft being connected to the controllable valve, and the controllable valve being connected to the mixing chamber and the pre-combustion chamber. The phase control shaft is used to control the opening time of the controllable valve into the open state, and the controllable valve is used to transmit the gas mixture into the pre-combustion chamber when in the open state. Controlling the operation of the gas transmission device based on a gas mixture transmission strategy includes: in response to a gas mixture state characterizing that the gas mixture concentration is greater than or equal to a preset concentration, and a load state characterizing that the engine's operating efficiency is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, obtaining the current operating condition of the engine; in response to the operating condition being a lean-burn condition, controlling the phase control shaft to rotate according to a first control parameter, thus delaying the opening time of the controllable valve.

[0071] The aforementioned phase control shaft can be a vehicle device that adjusts the opening and closing of the aforementioned controllable valve. The aforementioned controllable valve can be a vehicle device that controls the gas flow between the engine cylinder and the intake or exhaust valve. The aforementioned mixture delivery strategy can be a series of methods controlling the delivery of the mixture from the intake system to the pre-combustion chamber, and then from the pre-combustion chamber to the main combustion chamber. The aforementioned preset threshold can be a pre-set limit value for engine operating efficiency. The aforementioned first control parameter can be a control parameter of the aforementioned phase control shaft set based on the aforementioned lean-burn condition.

[0072] In an optional embodiment, considering that the engine uses a leaner mixture (i.e., more air mixed with less fuel) when operating at high efficiency, the combustion process can be optimized by adjusting the valves to ensure that the mixture is fully and evenly distributed in the pre-combustion chamber even with less fuel, thereby achieving more complete combustion. The control system has acquired the mixture concentration and the engine load status. If the mixture concentration is greater than or equal to the preset concentration, and the engine efficiency determined based on the engine load status is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, the control system can acquire the current operating condition of the engine. If the operating condition is a lean-burn condition, the phase control shaft is controlled to rotate according to the first control parameter, delaying the opening time of the controllable valve.

[0073] For example, to accurately control engine performance under lean-burn conditions, the first control parameter could be the flow area of ​​the orifices in the annular groove and hydraulic oil chamber. When the engine is not operating at idle, the control system has already obtained the concentration of the air-fuel mixture in the mixing chamber through the air-fuel ratio sensor, and simultaneously determined the engine efficiency through the throttle position sensor. If the air-fuel mixture concentration is greater than or equal to the preset concentration, and the engine efficiency is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, the control system can further obtain the current engine operating condition. If the operating condition is lean-burn, the control system can drive the motor to control the rotation of the phase control shaft to adjust the flow area of ​​the orifices in the annular groove and hydraulic oil chamber, allowing the controllable valve to open later.

[0074] Furthermore, the gas transmission device also includes a hydraulic oil control shaft connected to a controllable valve, wherein the hydraulic oil control shaft is used to control the duration of the controllable valve being in the open state; the method further includes: in response to the operating condition not being a lean-burn condition, controlling the hydraulic oil control shaft to rotate according to a second control parameter to extend the duration of the controllable valve being in the open state.

[0075] The aforementioned hydraulic control shaft can be a vehicle device that controls the opening duration of the aforementioned controllable valve. The aforementioned second control parameter can be a control parameter of the aforementioned hydraulic control shaft set based on the aforementioned non-lean combustion condition.

[0076] In an optional embodiment, considering that the engine requires more air and fuel to enter the cylinder to generate greater power output under acceleration or high-load conditions, it is necessary to adjust the valves to increase the intake valve opening time, allowing more air to enter the pre-combustion chamber and mix fully with the fuel, thereby improving combustion thermal efficiency and power performance. Furthermore, considering potential delays and shocks in the engine component structure that affect the accuracy and stability of valve control, this embodiment employs a hydraulic oil control shaft to quickly respond to control system commands, thereby dynamically adjusting the valves based on the engine's real-time operating conditions. If the air-fuel mixture concentration is greater than or equal to the preset concentration, and the engine operating efficiency determined based on the engine load state is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, the control system can obtain the engine's current operating conditions. If the operating conditions are not lean-burn conditions, the hydraulic oil control shaft is controlled to rotate according to the second control parameter, extending the duration of the controllable valve in the open state.

[0077] For example, to accurately regulate engine performance under non-lean-burn conditions, the second control parameter could be to reduce the flow area of ​​the oil passage and the oblique orifice. When the engine is not operating at idle, the control system has already obtained the concentration of the air-fuel ratio in the mixing chamber through the air-fuel ratio sensor, and simultaneously, the control system has determined the engine's operating efficiency through the throttle position sensor. If the concentration of the air-fuel ratio is greater than or equal to the preset concentration, and the engine's operating efficiency is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, the control system can further obtain the engine's current operating condition. If the operating condition is not lean-burn, the control system can drive the motor to control the rotation of the hydraulic oil control shaft to reduce the flow area of ​​the oil passage and the oblique orifice, prolonging the duration of the controllable valve opening, thereby reducing the concentration of the air-fuel ratio in the pre-combustion chamber.

[0078] Furthermore, the method also includes: in response to the mixture state characterizing that the concentration of the mixture is greater than or equal to a preset concentration, and the load state characterizing that the working efficiency of the engine is less than a preset threshold, controlling the rotation of the phase control shaft according to the third control parameter to advance the opening time of the controllable valve.

[0079] The third control parameter mentioned above can be the control parameter of the phase control axis set based on the above-mentioned air-fuel mixture state and engine load state.

[0080] In an alternative embodiment, considering that the engine does not need to generate a large amount of power under low load conditions, the control system can more precisely control the combustion process to achieve higher efficiency. If the control system determines, based on the acquired mixture state and engine load state, that the concentration of the mixture is greater than or equal to a preset concentration, and the engine operating efficiency determined based on the load state is less than the preset threshold, the control system can control the phase control shaft to rotate according to the third control parameter, thus advancing the opening time of the controllable valve.

[0081] For example, to accurately control engine performance under low load conditions, the third control parameter mentioned above could be adjusting the flow area of ​​the holes in the annular groove and hydraulic oil chamber, while simultaneously increasing the flow area of ​​the oil passage and the inclined hole. When the engine is not operating at idle, the control system has already obtained the concentration of the air-fuel ratio in the mixing chamber through the air-fuel ratio sensor, and simultaneously determined the engine's operating efficiency through the throttle position sensor. If the concentration of the air-fuel mixture is greater than or equal to the preset concentration, and the engine's operating efficiency is less than the preset threshold, the control system can drive the motor to adjust the flow area of ​​the holes in the annular groove and hydraulic oil chamber, causing the valve to open earlier. At the same time, the control system can drive the motor to increase the flow area of ​​the oil passage and the inclined hole to shorten the valve opening duration, thereby ensuring a richer air-fuel mixture in the pre-combustion chamber.

[0082] Furthermore, the method also includes: responding to the condition that the concentration of the mixture is less than a preset concentration, controlling the operation of the fuel injection device according to a fourth control parameter, and extending the operating time of the fuel injection device, wherein the fuel injection device is used to increase the concentration of the mixture in the mixing chamber.

[0083] The fourth control parameter mentioned above can be a control parameter of the fuel injection device set based on the above-mentioned air-fuel mixture state. The above-mentioned fuel injection device can be a vehicle device that injects fuel into the combustion chamber or pre-combustion chamber in the form of atomization, such as a fuel injector or a high-pressure pump, but is not limited to these.

[0084] In an optional embodiment, considering that a longer time or more efficient airflow is required to ensure sufficient mixing of fuel and air to form a homogeneous combustible mixture when the concentration of the mixture is low, the control system can control the operation of the fuel injection device according to the fourth control parameter to extend the operating time of the fuel injection device, thereby increasing the concentration of the mixture in the mixing chamber.

[0085] For example, to precisely control the fuel injection quantity and timing, the aforementioned fuel injection device can be a fuel injector, and the fourth control parameter can be extending the fuel injector's injection time. When the engine is not operating at idle, the control system has already obtained the concentration of the air-fuel mixture in the mixing chamber through the air-fuel ratio sensor. If the concentration of the air-fuel mixture is less than the preset concentration, the control system can drive the fuel injector to extend the injection time until the mixture in the mixing chamber is rich.

[0086] For example, to provide stable fuel pressure, the aforementioned fuel injection device can be a high-pressure pump, and the fourth control parameter can be extending the injection time of the high-pressure pump. When the engine is not operating at idle, the control system has already obtained the concentration of the air-fuel mixture in the mixing chamber through the air-fuel ratio sensor. If the concentration of the air-fuel mixture is less than the preset concentration, the control system can drive the high-pressure pump to extend the injection time until the mixture in the mixing chamber is rich.

[0087] Furthermore, the method also includes: detecting the air volume in the pre-combustion chamber to obtain the air volume in the pre-combustion chamber; obtaining the difference between the air volume and a reference volume to obtain an air volume difference value, wherein the reference volume is used to characterize the air volume contained in the pre-combustion chamber under normal conditions; constructing a pressure relief parameter based on the air volume difference value; and controlling the operation of a pressure relief valve based on the pressure relief parameter, wherein the pressure relief valve is connected to the pre-combustion chamber and is used to remove air from inside the pre-combustion chamber.

[0088] The aforementioned air volume can be the actual volume of air that enters the pre-combustion chamber through the intake port and participates in fuel mixing during engine operation. The aforementioned reference quantity can be the amount of air contained in the pre-combustion chamber under normal conditions. The aforementioned pressure relief parameter can be a parameter that controls the opening or closing of the pressure relief valve. The aforementioned pressure relief valve can be a vehicle device that regulates the air pressure or oil pressure within the system.

[0089] In one alternative embodiment, considering that the pre-combustion chamber ignition system relies on the rapid combustion of the air-fuel mixture within the pre-combustion chamber to initiate combustion in the main combustion chamber, insufficient air volume may result in an overly rich mixture, leading to incomplete combustion and reduced combustion efficiency. Conversely, excessive air volume may result in an overly lean mixture, also potentially causing combustion problems. Therefore, the control system can optimize combustion efficiency by detecting the air volume in the pre-combustion chamber to ensure the mixture is at the target concentration. The control system can first detect the air volume in the pre-combustion chamber to obtain the actual air volume. Then, the control system can calculate the difference between the actual air volume and a reference volume to obtain the air volume difference value. Finally, the control system can construct a pressure relief parameter based on the air volume difference value and control the operation of the pressure relief valve based on this parameter to remove air from the pre-combustion chamber.

[0090] For example, to precisely adjust the air volume inside the pre-combustion chamber and thus improve combustion efficiency, the control system can pre-calculate a reference air volume for the current operating conditions. The calculation shows this reference volume to be 30 cubic centimeters. Then, based on a mass airflow sensor, the control system obtains the air volume in the pre-combustion chamber as 35 cubic centimeters and further calculates the difference between this air volume and the reference volume. This difference is found to be 5 cubic centimeters, meaning the air volume in the pre-combustion chamber is higher than the reference value, potentially leading to an overly lean mixture and affecting combustion efficiency and emissions performance. The control system can then construct a pressure relief parameter based on this air volume difference, which can be used to control the opening of the pressure relief valve. Finally, based on this pressure relief parameter, the control system can increase the opening of the pressure relief valve, allowing air from the pre-combustion chamber to be discharged through the valve until the air volume in the pre-combustion chamber drops to or approaches the reference volume.

[0091] For ease of understanding, Figure 2 This is a detailed flowchart of a mixture control method for a pre-combustion chamber according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the control system first acquires the current driving condition and then determines whether it is an idling condition. If it is an idling condition, the process ends. If it is not an idling condition, the control system acquires the air-fuel mixture state in the mixing chamber and further determines whether it is a lean mixture. If it is a lean mixture, the control system drives the injector to extend the injection time until the mixture in the mixing chamber is a rich mixture. If the mixture is not a lean mixture, the control system acquires the current engine load state and further determines whether it is a low load. If it is a low load, the control system drives the motor to adjust the flow area of ​​the annular groove and the orifice on the hydraulic oil chamber, causing the valve to open earlier. At the same time, the control system drives the motor to increase the flow area of ​​the oil passage and the oblique orifice to shorten the valve opening duration, thereby ensuring a richer mixture in the pre-combustion chamber. If the engine load condition described above is not low load, the control system can further acquire the current driving conditions and determine whether these conditions are lean-burn conditions. If the driving conditions are lean-burn conditions, the control system can drive the motor to adjust the flow area of ​​the annular groove and the orifice on the hydraulic oil chamber, causing the controllable valve to open later. If the driving conditions are not lean-burn conditions, the control system can drive the motor to reduce the flow area of ​​the oil passage and the oblique orifice, prolonging the duration of the controllable valve opening, thereby reducing the air-fuel mixture concentration in the pre-combustion chamber.
