Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle fault detection, in particular to a DMTL module fault simulation device. Background Art
[0002] As my country's environmental protection requirements become increasingly stringent, new National VI regulations have been introduced in the field of motor vehicles. Among them, the production vehicle evaluation test (PVE) is a new OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) consistency check added to the National VI regulations, requiring the vehicle OBD system to effectively monitor and report the vehicle's emission status. In order to meet the National VI emission regulations, many vehicle manufacturers choose to install a fuel emission leak diagnostic module (DMTL) on the basis of the original EVAP (Evaporative Emission Control System), which can promptly detect whether the fuel tank and its fuel pipeline system are leaking, and avoid environmental pollution caused by fuel vapor leakage. Therefore, in the PVE test, when verifying the relevant faults of the EVAP system, it is necessary to control the relevant components of the DMTL module or replace the faulty parts.
[0003] The DMTL module actively pumps air into the fuel tank system to pressurize it, and performs leakage diagnosis based on the feedback of the pump current. To adapt to different engine working conditions, different working modes can be switched, such as reference measurement mode, leakage monitoring mode, activated carbon regeneration mode, etc. In the PVE test, the verification of related faults in various working modes of the DMTL module has the characteristics of a large number of fault codes, a long test cycle, and great verification difficulty. At present, the verification of such related faults is mainly carried out by disassembling the DMTL pipeline or replacing the corresponding faulty parts, and the DMTL pump current cannot be flexibly controlled to meet the calibrated threshold, resulting in an increase in the economic and time costs of verification.

[0034] Figure 1 The structure diagram of the DMTL module fault simulation device of one embodiment of the utility model is shown. As shown in the figure, a DMTL module fault simulation device 100 suitable for the National VI PVE test mainly includes a fuel pipe quick connector 101, a one-way throttle valve 102, a first nylon tube 103 and a second nylon tube 104.
[0035] The fuel pipe quick connector 101 makes the connection with other interfaces faster and more convenient, and no longer needs to use traditional methods such as pipe connectors. It is not only durable, but also reliable, not prone to oil leakage, and highly safe. The use of the fuel pipe quick connector 101 can significantly improve the connection speed and efficiency, make quick connection possible, and reduce the complexity of traditional connection technology.
[0036] The one-way throttle valve 102 is a valve for controlling fluid flow by changing the throttle cross section or throttle length. Conventionally, a throttle valve and a one-way valve are connected in parallel to form the one-way throttle valve 102.
[0037] Among them, one end of the first nylon tube 103 is connected to the fuel pipe quick connector 101, and the other end is connected to the outlet of the one-way throttle valve 102. One end of the second nylon tube 104 is connected to the inlet of the one-way throttle valve 102. Nylon tubes are used because they have good physical, chemical and mechanical properties: wear resistance, can be used in conditions with sand, stone and iron filings; smooth surface, reduced resistance, can prevent rust and scaling accumulation; soft, easy to bend, easy to install, simple processing. At the same time, nylon tubes have rigidity. When a certain shape is required, they can be made into various shapes like metal tubes, and no complicated equipment and tooling are required; they can withstand corrosion from many chemical substances; they are dimensional stable and have low permeability; they have extremely high resistance and can be used as insulators; they have a long service life, even for decades; they have good temperature resistance and can work in an environment of -40-100℃.
[0038] The fuel pipe quick connector 101 is used to connect the air inlet of the vehicle DMTL module, and the fault simulation of the DMTL module is realized by adjusting the valve opening of the one-way throttle valve 102.
[0039] During actual testing, the connection pipeline between the detection pump of the vehicle DMTL module and the air filter element is removed, and the fuel pipe quick connector 101 of the DMTL module fault simulation device 100 provided by the utility model is connected to the air inlet of the DMTL module to completely install the fault simulation device 100 into the EVAP system pipeline. The ambient airflow can pass through the second nylon tube 104, the one-way throttle valve 102 and the first nylon tube 103, and the fuel pipe quick connector 101, and enter from the air inlet of the DMTL module. The vehicle ECU receives the DMTL module detection pump current signal to achieve fault verification of different thresholds.
[0040] Taking a certain type of gasoline vehicle as an example, when it is necessary to verify the fault code (P017F) of the DMTL module air filter resistance being too large, it is only necessary to reduce the air flow through the one-way throttle valve 102 until the vehicle ECU detects that the current fed back by the DMTL module detection pump is less than the calibrated threshold value, and then the fault verification can be completed. On the contrary, increasing the air flow through the one-way throttle valve 102 will cause the reference current fed back by the DMTL module detection pump to be too large, and the vehicle ECU will report the DMTL module detection pump current being too large fault (P043E). It is easy to understand that the fault codes related to the abnormal state of the detection pump current under different working conditions can be verified by this method. In other words, by adjusting the air flow through the one-way throttle valve 102, the DMTL module detection pump current can be flexibly controlled to cover the fault verification work of the EVAP working cycle, thereby improving the verification efficiency and reducing the cost.
[0041] In addition, when verifying the fault (P2407) of the DMTL module detecting pump current fluctuation beyond the reasonable range, the air flow through the one-way throttle valve 102 can be reciprocated according to the EVAP system monitoring strategy requirements, so that the detection pump current signal fluctuates between the maximum or minimum value. When the fluctuation amplitude exceeds the calibration threshold, the fault diagnosis can be completed.
[0042] Preferably, the model of the one-way throttle valve 102 is ASC100-10, and it is provided with a flow regulating cap for controlling the valve opening of the one-way throttle valve 102. As mentioned above, when it is necessary to verify the fault code (P017F) of the excessive air filter flow resistance of the DMTL module, it is only necessary to turn the flow regulating nut of the one-way throttle valve 102 to reduce the air flow through the one-way throttle valve 102 until the vehicle ECU detects that the current fed back by the DMTL module detection pump is less than the calibrated threshold value, and then the corresponding fault verification can be completed. Similarly, by turning the flow regulating nut of the one-way throttle valve 102 in the opposite direction and increasing the air flow through the one-way throttle valve 102, the reference current fed back by the DMTL module detection pump is too large, and the vehicle ECU can report the fault (P043E) of the excessive current of the DMTL module detection pump.
[0043] Preferably, the inner diameter of the first nylon tube 103 is 8 mm and the wall thickness is 1 mm.
[0044] Preferably, the fuel pipe quick connector 101 is an ID6 elbow connector, and the outer diameter of one end is 7.89 mm, which matches the size of the first nylon tube 103. The outer diameter of this end is matched and fixed with one end of the first nylon tube 103. The other end of the fuel pipe quick connector 101 is matched and fixed with the male connector of the vehicle DMTL module air inlet.
[0045] Preferably, the DMTL module fault simulation device 100 further includes an elastic clamp 105. The elastic clamp 105 is used to fix one end of the first nylon tube 103 and the fuel pipe quick connector 101 to form a stable connection between the two.
[0046] Preferably, the model of the elastic clamp 105 is M9.
[0047] Preferably, the elastic clamp 105 has a thickness of 0.5 mm and a width of 5 mm.
[0048] Preferably, an air filter is provided in the second nylon tube 104 to simulate the air filter of the vehicle. The external air is first filtered by the air filter and then introduced into the air inlet of the vehicle DMTL module through the one-way throttle valve 102 and the fuel pipe quick connector 101.
[0049] The DMTL module fault simulation device provided by the utility model has the following advantages:
[0050] The overall structure is compact and easy to carry;
[0051] Easy to disassemble and assemble, no need to replace original car parts, low cost;
[0052] High precision, can accurately control the pressure entering the pipeline system to adjust the current of the detection pump; Meeting the diagnostic thresholds of different faults to achieve relevant fault verification;
[0053] One installation can cover the verification work of all related faults, which is highly efficient.
[0054] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the above exemplary embodiments of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, it is intended that the present invention covers modifications and variations of the present invention that fall within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalent technical solutions.
