Exhaust gas purifying device
An exhaust gas purifying apparatus includes an oxidative catalyst and a filter that are disposed in an exhaust gas path of an engine; a fuel injecting device that injects fuel according to a fuel injection pattern; and a control device that estimates a deposition amount of a particulate matter and sets the fuel injection pattern. When the fuel injection pattern including post-injection is set to recover the filter, the fuel injection pattern is set such that a post-injection amount is reduced as the deposition amount increases.
1. An exhaust gas purifying apparatus comprising:
an oxidative catalyst and a filter that are disposed in an exhaust gas path of an engine;
a fuel injecting device that injects fuel according to a fuel injection pattern; and
a control device that is configured to estimate a deposition amount of a particulate matter, the control device setting the fuel injection pattern, wherein
the control device is operable to run a first recovery mode and a second recovery mode which are control modes to set the fuel injection pattern including post-injection to recover the filter,
the second recovery mode is run when the estimated deposition amount exceeds a starting threshold value that is larger than a reference threshold value, and in the second recovery mode, a post-injection amount is set to be a first injection amount when the deposition amount is larger than the reference threshold value, and the post-injection amount is set to be a second injection amount that is a larger injection amount than the first injection amount when the deposition amount is equal to the reference threshold value or smaller, and
the first recovery mode is run when the deposition amount exceeds the reference threshold value and is equal to the starting threshold value or smaller, and the post-injection amount is maintained at a constant value regardless of the magnitude of the deposition amount.
2. The exhaust gas purifying apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein when the deposition amount is equal to a limit threshold value or larger, that is larger than the starting threshold value, the post-injection is prohibited.
3. The exhaust gas purifying apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein in the second recovery mode, the post-injection amount is set such that a time period necessary for the deposition amount to be reduced from the starting threshold value to the reference threshold value is within three hours.
4. The exhaust gas purifying apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein in the second recovery mode, the post-injection amount is set such that a time period necessary for the deposition amount to be reduced from the starting threshold value to the reference threshold value is within three hours.
