ANORDNING FOR ATT REGLERA UTTAGNING AV BROMSKRAFT UR EN FLERCYLINDRIG DIESELMOTOR

摘要

The invention relates to a method and means for controlling the braking action of a diesel engine having several cylinders. Hereby valves of the cylinders are opened and closed for supplying compressed air and/or venting the cylinder during a certain moment of the compression stroke. This is accomplished by that a transmitter (20, 32) produces an electric pulse, which is transformed to an electro-magnetic force, which controls a valve of a pressurized pilot air system for opening said valve of the particular cylinder.
