[0038] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the drawings.
[0039] Embodiment 1: This embodiment provides an EGR valve, as Figure 2 shown, which includes a valve seat 1, a valve body 2, and a tapered valve 7. An air passage 3 is provided inside the valve body 2. The two ends of the air passage 3 are respectively an air outlet 4 and an end cover mounting port 5, and a valve seat 1 is provided inside the air passage 3. Among them, the cross-sectional area of the air passage 3 gradually increases from the valve seat 1 towards the end cover mounting port 5. An air inlet 6 is provided on the valve body 2. The air inlet 6 is located on the side of the valve seat 1 away from the air outlet 4, and the air inlet 6 communicates with the air passage 3. The tapered valve 7 is arranged inside the air passage 3. Among them, the side of the tapered valve 7 away from the air inlet 6 fits against the air passage 3, and when the tapered valve 7 moves along the valve seat 1 towards the end cover, the gap between the side of the tapered valve 7 close to the air inlet 6 and the air passage 3 gradually increases.
[0040] Exemplarily, during implementation, the EGR valve includes a valve body 2. An air passage 3 is provided inside the valve body 2. The two ends of the air passage 3 penetrate through the valve body 2, and the two ends of the air passage 3 respectively form an air outlet 4 and an end cover mounting port 5.
[0041] The valve seat 1 is connected inside the air passage 3 by means of clamping, welding, or screwing, etc., and the air outlet 4 and the end cover mounting port 5 are located on both sides of the valve seat 1.
[0042] An air inlet 6 is provided on the side wall of the valve body 2. The air inlet 6 is located on the side of the valve seat 1 close to the end cover mounting port 5, and the air inlet 6 communicates with the part of the air passage 3 located on the side of the valve seat 1 close to the end cover mounting port 5.
[0043] The EGR valve further includes a guide sleeve 9 and a valve stem 8. The guide sleeve 9 is inserted through the valve body 2. The guide sleeve 9 is connected to the valve body 2 by means of screwing fixation, welding fixation, etc., and the guide sleeve 9 is hermetically connected to the valve body 2 through a sealing ring. The valve stem 8 is inserted through the guide sleeve 9. The valve stem 8 is hermetically connected to the guide sleeve 9 through a sealing ring, and one end of the valve stem 8 is inserted into the air passage 3.
[0044] The tapered valve 7 is arranged inside the air passage 3. The tapered valve 7 is connected to one end of the valve stem 8 by means of interference fit, screwing fixation, welding fixation, etc., and the tapered valve 7 is located on the side of the valve seat 1 close to the end cover mounting port 5. And when the tapered valve 7 is fitted on the valve seat 1, the air passage 3 is in a closed state.
[0045] Among them, the cross-sectional area of the air passage 3 gradually increases from the valve seat 1 along the direction from the valve seat 1 towards the end cover mounting port 5. The side of the tapered valve 7 away from the air inlet 6 fits against the air passage 3, and when the tapered valve 7 moves along the valve seat 1 towards the end cover mounting port 5, the gap between the side of the tapered valve 7 close to the air inlet 6 and the side wall of the air passage 3 gradually increases.
[0046] During use, after the exhaust gas flows in through the intake port 6, it then flows towards the outlet port 4 through the gap between the side of the cone valve 7 close to the intake port 6 and the air passage 3. At this time, by moving the cone valve 7 along the valve seat 1 towards the end cap mounting port 5 / along the end cap mounting port 5 towards the cone valve 7, the gap between the cone valve 7 and the side wall of the air passage 3 is gradually increased or decreased. It is desired to achieve a more refined adjustment of the exhaust gas flow area according to the working state of the engine, thereby enhancing the control ability of the exhaust gas recirculation amount, so as to improve the adjustment flexibility and accuracy. At the same time, the exhaust gas flows towards the outlet port 4 through the gap between the side of the cone valve 7 close to the intake port 6 and the air passage 3, reducing unnecessary flow resistance and optimizing the exhaust gas flow path, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the control efficiency of the exhaust gas recirculation amount and further improving the adjustment flexibility and accuracy.
[0047] Embodiment 2: This embodiment provides a detection method. As Figure 3 shown, the detection method is applicable to the EGR valve described in Embodiment 1. The detection method includes an operation for detecting the sealing performance of the guide sleeve:
[0048] The operation for detecting the sealing performance of the guide sleeve includes:
[0049] S100. Keep the intake port in a sealed state and keep the sliding seal state between the cone valve and the air passage;
[0050] Exemplarily, during the implementation process, fix the EGR valve on the detection tooling, and use the sealing structure on the detection tooling to seal the intake port, and at the same time perform a sliding seal between the cone valve and the air passage. That is to say, during the process of the cone valve moving along the valve seat towards the end cap mounting port / along the end cap mounting port towards the valve seat, the cone valve and the air passage are always in a sealed state. It is desired to achieve the purpose of constructing the sealed environment required for the guide sleeve detection, reducing the leakage risk of other parts during the guide sleeve seal detection, and thus improving the accuracy of the guide sleeve seal performance detection.
[0051] S200. Preset a plurality of acquisition positions on the air passage, and the plurality of acquisition positions are arranged in sequence along the direction from the valve seat to the end cap mounting port;
[0052] Exemplarily, during the implementation process, preset a plurality of acquisition positions on the air passage, and evenly arrange the plurality of acquisition positions starting from the valve seat along the direction from the valve seat to the end cap mounting port, and sequentially mark the plurality of acquisition positions as , …… . For example, when the cone valve is fitted in the valve seat, make acquisition position marks on the part of the valve stem extending outside the valve body. The number of acquisition position marks is set to be a plurality, and the plurality of acquisition position marks are arranged in sequence along the valve stem in the direction away from the valve body, and are sequentially marked as , …… , and the plurality of collection position identifiers correspond one-to-one with the collection positions on the air passage. That is to say, when the valve stem moves along the valve seat towards the end cover mounting port to the collection position identifier (for example, the collection position identifier is marked on the valve stem, when the marked line representing the collection position identifier coincides with the valve body), it means that the conical valve moves to the collection position . When the valve stem moves along the valve seat towards the end cover mounting port to the collection position identifier (for example, the collection position identifier is marked on the valve stem, when the marked line representing the collection position identifier coincides with the valve body), it means that the conical valve moves to the collection position ... When the valve stem moves along the valve seat towards the end cover mounting port to the collection position identifier (for example, the collection position identifier is marked on the valve stem, when the marked line representing the collection position identifier coincides with the valve body), it means that the conical valve moves to the collection position . The purpose is to facilitate the staff to identify the collection position where the conical valve is located from the exposed part of the valve stem.
[0053] S300. Fill a certain amount of gas medium into the first target chamber from the air outlet; the first target chamber is formed among the conical valve, the air passage and the air outlet;
[0054] Seal the air supply end of the gas supply device to the air outlet, so that the air outlet, the air inlet, and the space between the conical valve and the air passage are all in an ideal sealed state. The ideal sealed state means that during the detection of the seal of the guide sleeve, the leakage amount is 0 or the leakage amount is small and can be ignored, and it does not affect the judgment of the seal of the guide sleeve. When the conical valve is adapted to the valve seat, a certain amount of gas medium is filled into the first target chamber formed among the conical valve, the air passage and the air outlet by the gas supply device. Among them, the gas medium can be selected as air, nitrogen, etc.
[0055] Considering that there may be air in the air passage itself. Therefore, in order to reduce the operation of evacuating the air passage, the gas medium in this embodiment is preferably air.
[0056] Make the air pressure in the first chamber greater than the air pressure outside the first chamber. And use the pressure acquisition device to acquire the air pressure in the first chamber, denoted as the first initial air pressure. When the continuous duration of the conical valve adapted in the valve seat is greater than or equal to the duration threshold, acquire the air pressure in the first chamber again, denoted as the second initial air pressure. Among them, the duration threshold can be set to 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, etc. according to historical data. There is no specific limit on the duration threshold here.
[0057] Calculate the pressure difference between the second initial pressure and the first initial pressure, denoted as the initial pressure difference, and determine whether the initial pressure difference is less than the pressure threshold. If the initial pressure difference is less than the pressure threshold, it is considered that the sealing performance of the guide sleeve is qualified when the conical valve is adapted to the valve seat. If the initial pressure difference is greater than or equal to the pressure threshold, it is considered that the sealing performance of the guide sleeve is unqualified when the conical valve is adapted to the valve seat.
[0058] Among them, the pressure threshold can be calculated from the allowable leakage amount in historical data. In an ideal state, this pressure threshold can be considered as 0.
[0059] S400. Obtain the first measured pressure and the predicted pressure in the first target chamber when the conical valve moves from the valve seat to the acquisition position;
[0060] Exemplarily, during the implementation process, drive the valve stem to move along the valve seat towards the end cap mounting port to the acquisition position mark , at this time, the conical valve moves to the acquisition position . When the duration of the acquisition position of the conical valve is greater than or equal to the duration threshold, collect the pressure in the first chamber, denoted as the first measured pressure . And obtain the predicted pressure in the first chamber . Then, drive the valve stem to move along the valve seat towards the end cap mounting port to the acquisition position mark , at this time, the conical valve moves to the acquisition position . When the duration of the acquisition position of the conical valve is greater than or equal to the duration threshold, collect the pressure in the first chamber, denoted as the first measured pressure . And obtain the predicted pressure in the first chamber ... Drive the valve stem to move along the valve seat towards the end cap mounting port to the acquisition position mark , at this time, the conical valve moves to the acquisition position . When the duration of the acquisition position of the conical valve is greater than or equal to the duration threshold, collect the pressure in the first chamber, denoted as the first measured pressure . And obtain the predicted pressure in the first chamber .
[0061] S500. Calculate the pressure difference between the first measured pressure and the predicted pressure, and determine whether each pressure difference is less than the pressure threshold; if so, it is considered that the sealing performance of the guide sleeve is qualified, and if not, it is considered that the sealing performance of the guide sleeve is unqualified.
[0062] Exemplarily, during the implementation process, calculate the first measured pressure and the predicted pressure , denoted as , the first measured pressure The air pressure difference from the predicted air pressure is denoted as …… the first measured air pressure and the predicted air pressure is denoted as .
[0063] Judge respectively between and the air pressure threshold value, between and the air pressure threshold value... between and the air pressure threshold value. When , ... are all less than the air pressure threshold value, it is considered that the sealing performance of the guide sleeve is qualified. When , ... at least one of them is greater than or equal to the air pressure threshold value, it is considered that the sealing performance of the guide sleeve is unqualified.
[0064] In the detection method of this embodiment, during the process of the cone valve moving along the valve seat towards the end cover mounting port, the air pressure is measured at multiple acquisition positions to simulate the sealing performance of the guide sleeve during the movement of the valve stem. It is expected to more accurately detect the sealing performance of the guide sleeve during the entire working stroke, thereby ensuring that the risk of exhaust gas leakage can be effectively reduced under various working conditions, so as to ensure the normal operation of the EGR system.
[0065] In the detection method of this embodiment, considering factors such as the material of the EGR valve itself and the allowable leakage amount of the guide sleeve, by setting the air pressure threshold value, it is expected to achieve the purpose of reducing the risk of misjudging the sealing performance of the guide sleeve.
[0066] In this embodiment, the detection method further includes an operation for detecting the sealing performance of the valve seat: The operation for detecting the sealing performance of the valve seat includes:
[0067] Keep the air inlet in a sealed state and fit the cone valve onto the valve seat;
[0068] Exemplarily, during the implementation process, fix the EGR valve on the detection tooling, and use the sealing structure on the detection tooling to seal the air inlet. And fit the cone valve onto the valve seat.
[0069] Fill the gas medium into the second target chamber from the end cover mounting port; the second target chamber is formed among the cone valve, the air passage, the air inlet and the end cover mounting port;
[0070] Seal the gas supply end of the gas supply device to the end cover mounting port so that both the air inlet and the end cover mounting port are in an ideal sealed state. The ideal sealed state means that when the valve seat sealing performance is detected, the leakage amount is 0 or the leakage amount is small and can be ignored, and it does not affect the judgment of the sealing performance of the guide sleeve. Fill a certain amount of gas medium into the second target chamber formed by the cone valve, the air passage, the air inlet, and the end cover mounting port through the gas supply device until the air pressure in the second chamber is greater than the air pressure outside the second chamber. Among them, the gas medium can be selected as air, nitrogen, etc.
[0071] Considering that there may be air in the air passage itself. Therefore, in order to reduce the operation of evacuating the air passage, the gas medium in this embodiment is preferably air.
[0072] Real-time collect the second measured air pressure in the second target chamber and construct a fitting curve of the second measured air pressure changing with time;
[0073] Exemplarily, during the implementation process, collect the second measured air pressure in the second target chamber every once in a while. For example, The second measured air pressure collected at time is denoted as ; …… The second measured air pressure collected at time . Among them, < <……< . Integrate each collection time and the corresponding second measured air pressure at each collection time into a series of discrete data points, denoted as ( , ), ( , )……( , ). And through fitting algorithms such as the least squares method and non-linear regression, fit the discrete data points to obtain a fitting curve of the second measured air pressure changing with time .
[0074] Judge whether the actual slope of the fitting curve is greater than the slope threshold. If so, it is considered that the valve seat sealing performance is qualified; if not, it is considered that the valve seat sealing performance is unqualified.
[0075] Exemplarily, during the implementation process, the actual slope of the fitting curve refers to the tangent slope at each point on the fitting curve. Calculate the first derivative of the fitting curve , and judge the first derivative Are they all greater than the slope threshold? If so, the seat sealing performance is considered qualified; if not, the seat sealing performance is considered unqualified.
[0076] In this embodiment, considering that under ideal conditions, due to the existence of conditions such as the material of the EGR valve itself and the allowable leakage amount, the air pressure in the second target chamber will gradually decrease over time. That is to say, the slope of the fitting curve is negative. Therefore, it is set that when the first derivative of the fitting curve is all greater than the slope threshold, the seat sealing performance is considered qualified.
[0077] Among them, the slope threshold can be set as follows: Test a batch of EGR valves with known good sealing performance, and record the data of the air pressure changing with time under the same detection conditions. Then, use statistical methods to analyze the data to determine an appropriate slope threshold that can distinguish the "good" and "bad" sealing performance of the EGR valve.
[0078] In this embodiment, the process of obtaining the predicted air pressure includes:
[0079] Obtain the temperature, molar amount of the gas medium in the first target chamber, and the volume of the first target chamber;
[0080] Process the temperature, molar amount, and volume to obtain the predicted air pressure.
[0081] In this embodiment, the calculation formula of the predicted air pressure is:
[0082]
[0083] Among them, is the predicted air pressure; is the molar amount of the gas medium; is the ideal gas constant; is the temperature compensation coefficient; is the temperature; is the volume compensation coefficient; is the volume of the first target chamber.
[0084] In this embodiment, considering that during the movement of the cone valve along the seat towards the end cover mounting port, the heat generated by the friction between the cone valve and the airway side wall, and the heat generated by the friction between the valve stem and the guide sleeve will cause a regional increase in the temperature of the gas medium in the first target chamber, which will further cause a deviation between the measured temperature and the actual temperature. Therefore, the temperature compensation coefficient is set to expect to reduce the deviation between the measured temperature and the actual temperature, and further improve the accuracy of the guide sleeve sealing performance detection.
[0085] Meanwhile, considering the special-shaped structure of the air passage where the cross-sectional area gradually increases from the valve seat along the direction towards the end cap mounting port, it may cause measurement errors in the volume of the first target chamber. Therefore, a volume compensation coefficient is set to reduce the volume measurement error and further improve the accuracy of the guide sleeve sealing detection.
[0086] Among them, the setting method of the volume compensation coefficient is as follows: Based on the design drawings and technical specifications of the EGR valve, calculate the theoretical volume of the first target chamber at different acquisition positions of the cone valve. Use computer-aided design (CAD) software to create a three-dimensional model of the internal structure of the EGR valve, and use computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation tools to analyze the actual volume of the first target chamber at different acquisition positions of the cone valve. Determine the volume compensation coefficient through the difference between the theoretical volume and the actual volume.
[0087] During the movement of the cone valve, since the change in the cross-sectional area of the air passage is non-linear, the volume compensation coefficient may not be fixed but vary with the position of the cone valve.
[0088] In this embodiment, when the duration of the cone valve at the acquisition position is greater than or equal to the duration threshold, the first measured air pressure in the first target chamber is obtained. By setting a fixed waiting time, it is ensured that the inside of the EGR valve is in a relatively stable state, aiming to more accurately capture the actual air pressure change in the first target chamber and further reduce the risk of measurement errors caused by transient effects.
[0089] In this embodiment, the first measured air pressure is greater than the ambient air pressure outside the first target chamber. By making the air pressure in the first target chamber higher than the external ambient air pressure, the detection ability for minute leaks can be significantly improved, aiming to improve the detection accuracy.
[0090] In this embodiment, the process of obtaining the temperature compensation coefficient includes:
[0091] Obtain the first frictional heat between the valve stem and the guide sleeve, and the second frictional heat between the cone valve and the air passage;
[0092] Exemplarily, during the implementation process, estimate the first frictional heat generated by friction between the valve stem and the guide sleeve through the frictional force between the valve stem and the guide sleeve and the displacement of the cone valve ; and estimate the second frictional heat generated by friction between the cone valve and the air passage through the frictional force between the cone valve and the air passage and the displacement of the cone valve .
[0093] Perform calculation processing on the first frictional heat and the second frictional heat to obtain the temperature compensation coefficient 。
[0094] Exemplarily, during implementation, according to the first frictional heat , the second frictional heat , and the specific heat capacity at constant volume and the molar amount of the gas in the gas medium, calculate the temperature change amount caused by the first frictional heat and the second frictional heat to the gas medium.
[0095] Among them, the calculation method of the temperature change amount is:
[0096]
[0097] Among them, is the temperature change amount; is the molar amount of the gas medium; is the specific heat capacity at constant volume of the gas medium; is the first frictional heat; is the second frictional heat.
[0098] Among them, the calculation method of the temperature compensation coefficient is:
[0099]
[0100] Among them, is the temperature compensation coefficient; is the temperature change amount; is the temperature.
