Exhaust gas purification system
An exhaust gas purification system is provided with an exhaust gas purification device which is arranged in an exhaust gas route of a common rail type engine, and is structured such that a plurality of renewing modes which burn and remove a particulate matter deposited within the exhaust gas purification device is executed. One of the plurality of renewing modes is an initialization renewing (a forced renewing) mode which supplies a fuel into the exhaust gas purification device by a post injection regardless of a clogged state of the exhaust gas purification device, in the case that an accumulated drive time of the engine becomes equal to or more than a previously set time.
1. An exhaust gas purification system for a common rail type engine, the system comprising:
an exhaust gas purification device which is configured for use along an exhaust gas route of the common rail type engine;
an electronic control unit configured to provide renewing control of the exhaust gas purification device, the electronic control unit having a plurality of renewing modes for burning and removing a particulate matter deposited in the exhaust gas purification device;
a renewing lamp;
a renewing switch; and
a parking brake; and
wherein a first mode of said plurality of renewing modes is a manual auxiliary renewing mode indicated when the clogging state becomes greater than or equal to a prescribed level of the exhaust gas purification device and during which the electronic control unit is configured to control an intake air throttle device to restrict an amount of intake air so that an exhaust gas temperature is automatically increased;
wherein a second mode of said plurality of renewing modes is an initialization renewing mode, during which the electronic control unit is configured to provide control of a post injection to supply a fuel into the exhaust gas purification device regardless of a clogged state of the exhaust gas purification device, said initialization renewing mode being indicated when the electronic control unit determines that an accumulated drive time of the engine becomes equal to or more than a previously set time;
wherein a third mode of said plurality of renewing modes is a manual emergency renewing mode during which fuel is supplied to the exhaust gas purifying device by post injection, said electronic control unit configured to control renewing differently than for said manual auxiliary renewing mode by fixing engine speed at a maximum rotational engine speed and maintaining the engine idling at said maximum rotational engine speed for all renewing of the exhaust gas purification device during the manual emergency renewing mode;
wherein the renewing lamp is configured to prompt an operator to execute said manual auxiliary renewing mode, initialization mode, and manual emergency renewing mode;
wherein the renewing switch has an active state during which execution of said manual auxiliary renewing mode is permitted;
wherein the parking brake is for maintaining control of the working machine equipped with said engine;
wherein while the renewing lamp is on, the electronic control unit prevents operation of the manual auxiliary renewing mode when the renewing switch is in an inactive state; and
wherein when the renewing switch is in the inactive state for longer than a predetermined leaving time, the renewing lamp is triggered into a warning state that is different from a state that prompts the operator to execute said manual auxiliary renewing mode and the initialization renewing mode, after which the manual emergency renewing mode is invoked by the operator by the operation of the renewing switch to permit the manual emergency renewing mode and operation of the parking brake.
2. The exhaust gas purification system according to claim 1 , wherein the renewing lamp is configured to receive power from a power supply, and wherein the electronic control unit is configured to set the renewing lamp to be on after restoration of power from the power supply following shut off of the power supply, provided that the renewing lamp was on when said power was shut off.
