Abstract

It is an object to make it possible to burn and remove particulate matter without generating runaway even if the particulate matter is excessively accumulated at the time of regeneration of an exhaust gas purification device. A common rail engine and the exhaust gas purification device placed in an exhaust gas path of the engine are provided. A plurality of regeneration controls for burning and removing the particulate matter accumulated in the exhaust gas purification device can be executed. The plurality of regeneration controls include at least non-operation regeneration control for raising exhaust gas temperature by combining post injection (E) and predetermined high speed rotation speed, and recovery regeneration control which can be executed when the non-operation regeneration control fails. In the non-operation regeneration control and the recovery regeneration control, the engine is driven exclusively for burning and removing the particulate matter. The recovery regeneration control is carried out at exhaust gas temperature lower than that of the non-operation regeneration control while taking time longer than that of the non-operation regeneration control.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An exhaust gas purification system comprising a common rail engine, and an exhaust gas filter placed in an exhaust gas path of the engine, the exhaust gas purification system being configured to execute a plurality of regeneration controls for burning and removing particulate matter accumulated in the exhaust gas filter, wherein
the plurality of regeneration controls include at least reset regeneration control for raising exhaust gas temperature using post injection, non-operation regeneration control for raising exhaust gas temperature by combining the post injection and predetermined high speed rotation speed, and recovery regeneration control configured to be executed when the non-operation regeneration control fails,
in the non-operation regeneration control and the recovery regeneration control, the engine is driven exclusively for burning and removing the particulate matter,
the recovery regeneration control is carried out at exhaust gas temperature lower than that of the non-operation regeneration control while taking time longer than that of the non-operation regeneration control;
the exhaust gas purification system is configured to shift from the reset regeneration control to the recovery regeneration control through the non-operation regeneration control with the condition that it is also so configured that upon a predetermined cumulative time from when the reset regeneration control or the non-operation regeneration control has been executed being exceeded, shifting to the non-operation regeneration control occurs without passing through the reset regeneration control,
the exhaust gas purification system is also configured so that shifting from the reset regeneration control to the non-operation regeneration control occurs through a non-operation standby mode through which shifting to the non-operation generation control is effected upon occurrence of a predetermined condition for shifting to the non-operation regeneration control,
the exhaust gas purification system is also configured so that when actual cumulative driving time is equal to or greater than a pre-set value for cumulative driving time and less than a pre-set value for time elapsed after reset regeneration control or non-operation regeneration control has last been executed, shifting to the non-operation regeneration control is, without going through the reset regeneration control, executable through an allow mode through which shifting to the non-operation regeneration control is effected,
the exhaust gas purification system is also configured so that shifting from the non-operation regeneration control to the recovery regeneration control is through a recovery standby mode through which shifting to the recovery regeneration control is effected upon occurrence of a predetermined condition for shifting to the recovery regeneration control, and
the exhaust gas purification system is also configured so that the respective standby and allow modes remain in effect until the respective conditions for the respective shifting occur.

2. The exhaust gas purification system according to claim 1 , wherein the exhaust gas purification system is further configured so that when the non-operation regeneration control fails, said shifting from the non-operation generation control to the recovery regeneration control occurs through the recovery standby mode.

3. The exhaust gas purification system according to claim 2 , wherein the exhaust gas regeneration system is further configured so that during execution of the recovery regeneration control, when a predetermined recovery releasing condition is established, the recovery regeneration control is interrupted.

4. The exhaust gas purification system according to claim 1 , wherein the exhaust gas regeneration system is further configured so that when the recovery regeneration control is completed, the procedure is returned to normal operation control.

5. The exhaust gas purification system according to claim 1 , wherein the exhaust gas regeneration system is further configured so that output of the engine in the non-operation regeneration control is lower than maximum output of the engine.

6. The exhaust gas purification system according to claim 5 , wherein the exhaust gas regeneration system is configured so that in the recovery regeneration control, output of the engine is lower than output of the engine in a time of the non-operation regeneration control.
