[0019] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solutions of the present application, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0020] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description, claims and above-mentioned drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application described here can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here. In addition, the terms "include" and "have" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units does not necessarily limit to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.
[0021] As Figure 1 shown, according to one aspect of the embodiments of the present application, a method for fault location of engine starting failure is provided, including: an initial abnormal start inspection stage, a fault identification stage, a processing and alarm stage, and a preventive self-inspection stage; the fault identification stage includes:
[0022] S1 Determine the faulty cylinder according to the magnitude relationship between the actual pressure value and the preset pressure value in each cylinder;
[0023] S2 Determine whether the current fault is a valve timing fault according to the abnormal noise signal of the faulty cylinder.
[0024] By setting the initial abnormal start inspection stage, the fault identification stage, the processing and alarm stage, and the preventive self-inspection stage, the faults in the engine cylinder can be accurately judged. At the same time, the fault identification stage includes determining the faulty cylinder according to the magnitude relationship between the actual pressure value and the preset pressure value in each cylinder and determining whether the current fault is a valve timing fault according to the abnormal noise signal of the faulty cylinder, which can further accurately judge whether there is a valve timing fault in the cylinder and improve the judgment accuracy.
[0025] Among them, the preset pressure value can be set to the pressure when the engine starts normally under the preset working condition, such as the normal pressure of the cylinder at a certain engine speed; in addition, a detonation pressure sensor can be set to obtain the pressure value.
[0026] Exemplarily, when there is a deviation in the engine valve timing, there may be the following situations: the valve opens during the compression stroke, and the cylinder pressure will be lower than the calibrated value at this time. The valve opens during the power stroke, and the cylinder pressure will be lower than the calibrated value at this time. The valve closes during the exhaust stroke, and the cylinder pressure will increase at this time, but it is still lower than the calibrated value, and the cylinder pressure curve that should be the pressure drop end may become the rising end. The valve closes during the intake stroke, and the cylinder pressure is lower than the calibrated value at this time.
[0027] As an alternative implementation manner, determining the faulty cylinder according to the magnitude relationship between the actual pressure value and the preset pressure value in each cylinder includes: calculating the difference between the actual pressure value in each cylinder and the preset pressure value; marking the cylinder whose difference between the actual pressure value and the preset pressure value is greater than a preset ratio of the preset pressure value as the faulty cylinder.
[0028] Specifically, the preset ratio can be 5%-15%, which can be specifically selected according to actual requirements. By comparing the difference between the actual pressure value in each cylinder and the preset pressure value, the accuracy of fault location can be further improved.
[0029] As an alternative implementation manner, determining whether the current fault is a valve timing fault according to the abnormal noise signal of the faulty cylinder includes: performing low-frequency filtering on the abnormal noise signal of the faulty cylinder; judging whether the frequency of the filtered abnormal noise signal is consistent with the engine speed frequency; if the frequency of the filtered abnormal noise signal is consistent with the engine speed frequency, then judging that the faulty cylinder has a valve timing fault.
[0030] As an alternative implementation manner, the initial inspection stage of abnormal starting includes: if the engine fails to start three times continuously, obtaining the actual pressure value and the abnormal noise signal in each cylinder, and automatically entering the fault identification stage.
[0031] As an alternative implementation manner, obtaining the actual pressure value and the abnormal noise signal in each cylinder includes: obtaining the actual pressure value and the abnormal noise signal in each cylinder at the engine dragging speed, and the engine dragging speed is less than the engine ignition speed.
[0032] As an alternative implementation manner, the preventive self-inspection stage includes: performing a dragging detection for a preset duration after the vehicle shuts off, and judging whether there is a fault in each cylinder according to the actual pressure value in each cylinder.
[0033] As an alternative implementation manner, judging whether there is a fault in each cylinder according to the actual pressure value in each cylinder includes: obtaining the actual pressure value in each cylinder multiple times within the preset duration; comparing the multiple actual pressure values in each cylinder with the pressure baseline data of each cylinder; judging whether there is a fault in each cylinder according to the comparison result between the multiple actual pressure values in each cylinder and the pressure baseline data of each cylinder.
[0034] Similarly, drag detection can be automatically performed within 5 - 10 seconds after each engine shutdown, comparing the actual pressure value with the pressure baseline data of each cylinder. In addition, the faulty cylinder can be determined based on the relationship between the actual pressure value in each cylinder and the preset pressure value: calculate the difference between the actual pressure value in each cylinder and the preset pressure value; mark the cylinder whose difference between the actual pressure value and the preset pressure value is greater than a preset ratio of the preset pressure value as the faulty cylinder.
[0035] As an optional implementation manner, the processing and alarm stage includes: if the current fault is the valve timing fault, cut off the fuel supply to the faulty cylinder, adjust the ignition sequence to skip the faulty cylinder; the instrument panel outputs a signal for characterizing the valve timing fault.
[0036] Exemplarily, for the air leakage fault: turn on the yellow warning light on the instrument panel, and the display screen prompts "Abnormal seal of cylinder No. X"; for the phase error: activate the red warning light, and the buzzer emits a rapid alarm sound at intervals of 0.5 seconds, and execute safety measures: automatically cut off the fuel supply to the faulty cylinder, and adjust the ignition sequence to skip the faulty cylinder.
[0037] According to another aspect of the present application, there is provided a fault location system for engine starting failure, including: a faulty cylinder determination module for determining the faulty cylinder according to the relationship between the actual pressure value in each cylinder and the preset pressure value; a fault judgment module for judging whether the current fault is a valve timing fault according to the abnormal noise signal of the faulty cylinder.

Among them, the processor, the communication interface, and the memory complete mutual communication through the communication bus. The characteristic is that the memory is used to store a computer program; the processor is used to execute the steps of the fault location method for engine starting failure by running the computer program stored on the memory.
