[0036] In related technologies, the direct injection nozzle is a core component in the fuel supply system of an engine with direct injection of hydrogen fuel. Currently, there are two main types of direct injection nozzles on the market: one type has a wear-resistant coating, such as alumina or tungsten silicide; the other type does not have a wear-resistant coating but has a lubricating oil filling hole, requiring manual addition of engine oil to lubricate the nozzle.
[0037] However, manually adding engine oil to lubricate the fuel injectors requires frequent user intervention, resulting in high labor costs and an inability to precisely and timely add oil, potentially leading to damage due to insufficient lubrication. To reduce the occurrence of fuel injectors operating without lubrication, an automatic lubrication system can be installed in the vehicle. This system supplies oil to the fuel injectors just before they begin operation, and can also be programmed to provide lubrication at set times and in measured amounts. This prevents insufficient lubrication during operation and extends the lifespan of the fuel injectors.
[0038] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a lubrication control system for a fuel nozzle, which can lubricate the fuel nozzle at regular intervals and in a measured manner, thereby improving the service life of the fuel nozzle and increasing engine efficiency.
[0039] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0040] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the lubrication control system for a fuel nozzle as shown in an embodiment of this application.
[0041] See Figure 1A lubrication control system for a fuel nozzle includes: an oil tank 1, an oil supply module, a pneumatic module 5, and a control unit 6;
[0042] Fuel tank 1 is connected to fuel supply module through first fuel supply line 101. Fuel tank 1 stores fuel. The driver can actively add fuel to fuel tank 1. Fuel tank 1 can transfer fuel to fuel supply module through first fuel supply line 101.
[0043] The fuel supply module includes a fuel supply pipe 2 and several fuel storage chambers 3. One end of the fuel supply pipe 2 is connected to the fuel storage chamber 3, and the other end of the fuel supply pipe is connected to the fuel tank 1. The output end of the fuel tank 1 is connected to the fuel nozzle. Several fuel storage chambers 3 are connected to one side of the fuel supply pipe 2. The fuel supply pipe 2 can receive fuel from the fuel tank 1 and store a certain amount of fuel. The fuel supply pipe 2 can transfer fuel to each fuel storage chamber 3. Each fuel storage chamber 3 can be connected to a fuel nozzle, and each fuel storage chamber 3 can supply fuel to the fuel nozzle.
[0044] Fuel injectors are a key component of the fuel injection system, responsible for precisely injecting fuel into the cylinders in a mist form. This atomization helps ensure complete combustion, thereby improving engine combustion efficiency. When fuel injectors malfunction or are damaged, fuel consumption increases. This is because the working condition of the fuel injectors directly affects the amount and timing of fuel injection, thus impacting engine combustion efficiency. If the fuel injectors are clogged or dirty, fuel injection will be impaired, leading to incomplete combustion and increased fuel consumption. The performance of the fuel injectors directly affects engine power output. If the fuel injectors are damaged or malfunctioning, insufficient fuel supply will occur, affecting engine power performance. Especially under acceleration or high-load conditions, fuel injector malfunctions can lead to insufficient engine power, affecting vehicle driving performance. Lubricating the fuel injectors with oil can extend their service life. Therefore, adding oil to the fuel injectors periodically and quantitatively through the fuel supply module can keep the fuel injectors constantly lubricated, extending their service life.
[0045] The pneumatic module 5 is connected to the input end of several oil reservoirs 3 via air pipes 4. The pneumatic module 5 may include an air compressor and air pipes 4. The air pipes 4 are connected to the input end of each oil reservoir 3. The air compressor can pressurize air and input air into the oil reservoir 3 through the air pipes 4, which can push the oil in the oil reservoir 3 to release oil to the fuel nozzle. It is convenient to operate and highly efficient.
[0046] Both the oil tank 1 and the pneumatic module 5 are connected to the control unit 6. The control unit 6 is used to control the oil tank 1 to supply oil to the oil supply module and to control the pneumatic module 5 to supply pressure to the oil storage chamber 3. The control unit 6 can control the oil tank 1 and the oil supply module to release engine oil to the fuel nozzle in a timed and quantitative manner according to the set program.
[0047] Control unit 6 can be an engine control unit (ECU). The ECU monitors the engine's operating status and parameters, adjusts fuel supply, and controls ignition timing to ensure efficient and stable engine operation. The ECU achieves precise engine control by receiving, processing, and sending signals. It utilizes advanced electronic technology and computing power to digitize the information obtained from sensors and perform corresponding operations according to preset programs and logic.
[0048] The lubrication control system, method, and vehicle for fuel nozzles disclosed in this application include a fuel tank 1, a fuel supply module, a pneumatic module 5, and a control unit 6. The fuel tank 1 is connected to the fuel supply module via a first fuel supply line 101. The fuel supply module includes a fuel supply pipe 2 and several fuel storage chambers 3. One end of the fuel supply pipe 2 is connected to a fuel storage chamber 3, and the other end of the fuel supply pipe 2 is connected to the fuel tank 1. The output end of the fuel storage tank 1 is connected to the fuel nozzle. The pneumatic module 5 is connected to the input ends of several fuel storage chambers 3 via an air line 4. Both the fuel tank 1 and the pneumatic module 5 are connected to the control unit 6. The control unit 6 is used to control the fuel tank 1 to supply oil to the fuel supply module and to control the pneumatic module 5 to supply pressure to the fuel storage chambers 3. This allows for timed and quantitative lubrication of the fuel nozzles, improving their service life and increasing engine efficiency.
[0049] In one possible implementation, the oil supply pipe 2 is connected to the input end of the oil storage chamber 3 via the second oil supply line 201. The second oil supply line 201 is equipped with a one-way valve 202, which is used to control the oil in the oil supply pipe to flow unidirectionally to the oil storage chamber 3 via the second oil supply line 201.
[0050] Specifically, the one-way valve 202 is installed on the second oil supply line 201 and can control whether the second oil supply line 201 is connected. When there is too much oil in the oil supply line, the one-way valve 202 can be opened so that the oil in the oil supply line can be transferred to the oil storage chamber 3. When it is not necessary to transfer oil to the oil storage chamber 3, the one-way valve 202 is closed.
[0051] In one possible implementation, an oil guide channel 301 is provided on the left side inside the oil tank 1, and the upper end of the oil guide channel 301 is connected to the second oil supply pipeline 201; an oil outlet chamber 302 is provided on the right side inside the oil tank 1, and the oil guide channel 301 is connected to the oil outlet chamber 302 through the oil inlet hole 303. The oil guide channel 301 is used to input oil from the second oil supply pipeline 201 to the oil outlet chamber 302.
[0052] Specifically, an oil guide channel 301 can be provided on the right side inside the oil reservoir 1. The length of the oil guide channel 301 can be the same as the height of the oil reservoir 1. The upper part of the oil guide channel 301 is connected to the second oil supply line 201. An oil inlet 303 is provided below the oil guide channel 301. The second oil supply line 201 can input oil into the oil guide channel 301. The oil guide channel 301 can transfer engine oil to the oil outlet chamber 302 through the oil inlet 303. The height of the oil inlet 303 can be set as needed.
[0053] Specifically, the volume of the oil outlet chamber 302 can be 0.5ml, meaning that the oil outlet chamber 302 can hold and release 0.5ml of engine oil at a time.
[0054] In one possible implementation, the oil outlet chamber 302 is provided with a sliding plate 304, a guide rail 305, and a limiting plate 306. The two ends of the two limiting plates 306 are connected to the inner wall of the oil outlet chamber 302. The guide rail 305 is fixedly disposed between the two limiting plates 306. The sliding plate 304 is slidably connected to the guide rail 305. An oil outlet hole 307 is provided at the bottom of the oil outlet chamber 302. The sliding plate 304 is used to output oil from the oil outlet hole 307 to the fuel nozzle.
[0055] Specifically, the two ends of the limiting plate 306 are connected to the inner wall of the oil outlet chamber 302, and one side of the limiting plate 306 is close to the oil guide channel 301. The guide rail 305 is set between the two limiting plates 306. The guide rail 305 can be set as two guide rails 305. The sliding plate 304 is slidably connected to the two guide rails 305. When it is necessary to release oil to the fuel nozzle, the sliding plate 304 can slide down on the guide rail 305, so that the fuel is discharged from the oil outlet hole 307 at the bottom of the oil outlet chamber 302 and released to the fuel nozzle. After the release is completed, the sliding plate 304 can return to the top of the guide rail 305 to prepare for the next sliding. The sliding plate 304 can be made of lightweight aluminum alloy and fits precisely with the guide rail 305 on the inner wall of the oil outlet chamber 302. The surface of the sliding plate 304 can be coated with DLC wear-resistant coating, which can not only ensure the sealing of the oil outlet chamber 302, but also ensure that the sliding plate 304 can slide smoothly on the guide rail 305.
[0056] In one possible implementation, the oil tank 1 further includes an air chamber 308, which is located at the upper end of the oil outlet chamber 302. The upper end of the air chamber 308 is provided with an air inlet 309 and an air vent 310. Both the air inlet 309 and the air vent 310 are connected to the pneumatic module 5 through an air pipe 4. The air chamber 308 is used to make the slide plate 304 slide on the guide rail 305 by air pressure.
[0057] Specifically, the air chamber 308 can hold a certain amount of air. An air inlet 309 and an air vent 310 are provided above the air chamber 308. Both the air inlet 309 and the air vent 310 are connected to the air pipe 4. When oil needs to be released, the pneumatic module 5 inputs compressed air into the air chamber 308 through the air pipe 4. The compressed air is released downward from the air chamber 308, causing the slide plate 304 to slide downward on the guide rail 305, so that the oil reservoir 3 releases fuel to the gas nozzle.
[0058] In one possible implementation, a liquid level sensor 7 is provided inside the oil tank 1, a first liquid level line is provided at the upper end of the oil tank 1, a second liquid level line is provided at the lower end of the oil tank 1, the liquid level sensor 7 is disposed between the first liquid level sensing line and the second liquid level sensing line, and the liquid level sensor 7 is electrically connected to the control unit 6.
[0059] Specifically, the level sensor 7 inside the fuel tank 1 can be used to monitor the fuel level inside the fuel tank 1. When the fuel level is lower than the second level line, it can remind the user to refuel the fuel tank 1. When the fuel level is higher than the first level line, it can remind the user that there is too much fuel. The level data collected by the level sensor 7 can be transmitted to the control unit 6.
[0060] In one possible implementation, a first solenoid valve 102 is provided on the first oil supply line 101, the first solenoid valve 102 is electrically connected to the control unit 6, and the first solenoid valve 102 is used to control the opening and closing of the first oil supply line 101; a second solenoid valve 401 is provided on the air line 4, the second solenoid valve 401 is electrically connected to the control unit 6, and the second solenoid valve 401 is used to control the opening and closing of the air line 4.
[0061] Specifically, the first solenoid valve 102 and the second solenoid valve 401 can be normally closed solenoid valves. The first solenoid valve 102 and the second solenoid valve 401 can be connected to the control unit 6. The control unit 6 can control the opening and closing of the solenoid valves according to a predetermined program. When refueling is required, the control unit 6 can control the first solenoid valve 102 to open so that the oil in the oil tank 1 can enter the oil supply pipe. When refueling is not required, the control unit 6 can control the first solenoid valve 102 to close. When it is necessary to release the oil in the oil reservoir 3 to the fuel nozzle, the control unit 6 can control the second solenoid valve 401 to open so that compressed air enters the oil reservoir 3 through the air pipe 4 and releases the oil in the oil reservoir 3 to the fuel nozzle.
[0062] This application also includes a control method for a lubrication control system, applied to a lubrication control system for a fuel nozzle, wherein the method includes the following steps:
[0063] Control unit 6 acquires engine status information;
[0064] The control unit 6 determines the number of times the fuel injectors need to be lubricated based on the engine's status information;
[0065] The control unit 6 controls the oil tank 1 to supply oil to the oil supply module according to the number of lubrication cycles, and controls the pneumatic module 5 to pressurize the oil supply module so that the oil supply module lubricates the fuel nozzle at least once.
[0066] Specifically, the engine status information can include the engine start signal, speed, torque, and other operating information. When the engine starts, the control unit 6 receives the engine start signal, energizing the first solenoid valve 102 and keeping it normally open. At this time, the control unit 6 starts a timer for 180 seconds. After 180 seconds, the control unit 6 can control the second solenoid valve 401 to open for 3 seconds, allowing the oil in the oil reservoir 3 to fill the fuel injectors, completing the initial oil filling of each cylinder's fuel injector after the first engine start. After the initial oil filling, the control unit 6 calculates and counts the cumulative number of fuel injector operations in real time based on engine speed, torque, and other signals. When the cumulative number of fuel injector operations reaches a certain threshold, the control unit 6 can control the second solenoid valve 401 to open for 3 seconds to fill each cylinder's fuel injector with oil through the oil reservoir 3. The control unit 6 can reset the previous round of cumulative fuel injector operation counts to zero and start a new round of counting, waiting for the next filling, until the control unit 6 receives the engine stop signal and de-energizes the first solenoid valve 102 and the second solenoid valve 401.
[0067] This application also includes a vehicle with a lubrication control system for the fuel injectors described above.
[0068] Regarding the apparatus in the above embodiments, the specific manner in which each module performs its operation has been described in detail in the embodiments related to the method, and will not be elaborated further here.
