EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION DEVICE

摘要

An EGR passage recirculates a part of exhaust gas from an exhaust passage to an intake passage. An EGR valve opens and closes the EGR passage. An exhaust cooling passage includes an EGR cooler closer to the exhaust passage than the EGR valve. A bypass passage branches at an upstream of the exhaust cooling passage to bypass the EGR cooler and to extend toward a downstream of the exhaust cooling passage. In a bypass open mode, a bypass switching valve opens both the exhaust cooling passage and the bypass passage. In a bypass close mode, the bypass switching valve opens the exhaust cooling passage and closes the bypass passage. In a cooler close mode, the bypass switching valve closes the exhaust cooling passage and opens the bypass passage. The bypass switching valve is set at the bypass open mode when the EGR valve is closed.

主权项

1. An exhaust gas recirculation device comprising:
an exhaust gas recirculation passage configured to recirculate a part of exhaust gas from an exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine to an intake passage of the internal combustion engine; an EGR valve configured to control an opening of the exhaust gas recirculation passage; an exhaust gas cooling passage including an EGR cooler, which is closer to the exhaust passage than the EGR valve; a bypass passage configured
to branch a flow of exhaust gas, which passes through the exhaust gas recirculation passage, at an upstream of the exhaust gas cooling passage andto bypass the EGR cooler and to conduct the flow of exhaust gas toward a downstream of the exhaust gas cooling passage; and a bypass switching valve located at a merge portion between the exhaust gas cooling passage and the bypass passage or located at the bypass passage, the bypass switching valve configured to switch among
a bypass open mode to open both the exhaust gas cooling passage and the bypass passage,a bypass close mode to open the exhaust gas cooling passage and to close the bypass passage, anda cooler close mode to close the exhaust gas cooling passage and to open the bypass passage, wherein the bypass switching valve is configured to be set at the bypass open mode when the EGR valve is in a full close state.
