288 and 289 on the upstream and downstream sides are respectively connected to the pressure boss bodies 292 on the upstream and downstream sides arranged in the purification casing 240 so as to sandwich the soot filter 244 in the purification casing 240. The

With the above configuration, a difference between the exhaust gas pressure on the inflow side of the soot filter 244 and the exhaust gas pressure on the outflow side of the soot filter 244 (exhaust gas differential pressure) is detected via the differential pressure sensor 281. Since the residual amount of particulate matter in the exhaust gas collected by the soot filter 244 is proportional to the differential pressure of the exhaust gas, the difference occurs when the amount of particulate matter remaining in the soot filter 244 increases more than a predetermined amount. Based on the detection result of the pressure sensor 281, regeneration control for reducing the amount of particulate matter in the soot filter 244 (for example, control for increasing the exhaust temperature) is executed. For example, when the residual amount of the particulate matter further increases beyond the recyclable range, the cleaning casing 240 is detached and disassembled, the soot filter 244 is cleaned, and the maintenance work for artificially removing the particulate matter is performed. .

Also, an electrical wiring connector is integrally provided on the outer case portion of the differential pressure sensor 281 for electrical wiring, and a DPF temperature sensor 282 for detecting the exhaust gas temperature in the diesel oxidation catalyst 243 is provided.

Each connector 294 is supported in a posture in which the connection directions of the electrical wiring connector of the differential pressure sensor 281 and the electrical wiring connector 294 of the DPF temperature sensor 282 are oriented in the same direction. Further, the upper portion of the purification casing 240 is disposed so as to face the air discharge portion of the air conditioning fan 115 installed on the back surface of the cabin 10. Therefore, the wiring of the differential pressure sensor 281 or each connector 294 can be cooled by the exhaust of the air conditioning fan 115. The exhaust heat on the purification casing 240 side can prevent them from burning and improve their durability.

That is, the purification casing 240 is disposed between the engine room 97 (engine room frame 91) and the grain tank 7, and the rear cover body 137 is disposed between the grain tank 7 and the purification casing 240. The rear cover body 137 prevents the operator from coming into contact with the purification casing 240 when the grain tank 7 is moved toward the outside of the machine and the rear side of the engine room 97 is opened to perform maintenance work.

After the fresh air from the air cleaner and the EGR gas from the exhaust manifold 207 are mixed in the EGR main body case 227, the mixed gas in the EGR main body case 227 is supplied to the intake manifold 206. In this way, a part of the exhaust gas discharged from the exhaust manifold 207 is recirculated to the engine 201 via the intake manifold 206, whereby the maximum combustion temperature during high-load operation is lowered, and NOx (nitrogen oxidation from the engine 201 is performed. Waste) is reduced.

As shown in FIG. 15, a turbocharger 232 is disposed on the right side of the cylinder head 205 and above the exhaust manifold 207.

(5). Outline of Common Rail Device Next, an outline of the common rail device 220 that is a fuel injection device will be described with reference to FIGS. 17 and 18. A fuel tank 218 is connected to each injector 215 for four cylinders in the engine 201 via a common rail device 220 and a fuel supply pump 214. As described above, each injector 215 includes an electromagnetic switching control type fuel injection valve 219. The common rail device 220 includes a cylindrical common rail 216 (pressure accumulation chamber). The suction side of the fuel supply pump 214 is connected to a fuel tank 218 via a fuel filter 217 and a low pressure pipe 261. The fuel in the fuel tank 218 is sucked into the fuel supply pump 214 via the fuel filter 217 and the low pressure pipe 261. A common rail 216 is connected to the discharge side of the fuel supply pump 214 via a high-pressure pipe 262. Four rails of injectors 215 are connected to the common rail 216 via four fuel injection pipes 263.

A fuel supply pump 214 is connected to the fuel tank 218 via a fuel return pipe 264. One end of the common rail return pipe 267 is connected to the end of the common rail 216 in the longitudinal direction via a return pipe connector 266 that limits the fuel pressure in the common rail 216. The other end side of the common rail return pipe 267 is connected to the fuel tank 218 via the fuel return pipe 264 (joins the fuel return pipe 264). The surplus fuel in the fuel supply pump 214 and the surplus fuel in the common rail 216 are recovered in the fuel tank 218 via the fuel return pipe 264 and the common rail return pipe 267.

In the above configuration, the fuel in the fuel tank 218 is pumped to the common rail 220 by the fuel supply pump 214 and stored in the common rail 216 as high-pressure fuel. By controlling the opening and closing (electronic control) of each fuel injection valve 219, the high pressure fuel in the common rail 216 is controlled with high accuracy in injection pressure, injection timing, and injection period (injection amount). 115 is injected into each cylinder of engine 201. Therefore, nitrogen oxide (NOx) discharged from the engine 201 can be reduced, and noise vibration of the engine 201 can be reduced.

As shown in FIG. 19, the common rail device 220 is configured to execute the main injection A near the top dead center (TDC). In addition to the main injection A, the common rail device 220 performs a small amount of pilot injection B for the purpose of reducing NOx and noise at a crank angle θ1 of about 60 ° before the top dead center, Pre-injection C is executed for the purpose of reducing noise immediately before the crank angle θ2, and after-injection is performed for the purpose of reducing PM and promoting exhaust gas purification at the crank angles θ3 and θ4 after top dead center. D and post-injection E are executed.

Pilot injection B is a fuel that promotes mixing of fuel and air by being injected at a time when the main injection A is greatly advanced. The pre-injection C is performed prior to the main injection A to shorten the ignition timing delay in the main injection A. After-injection D is performed with a slight delay with respect to main injection A, thereby activating diffusion combustion and raising the temperature of exhaust gas from engine 201 (reburning PM). The post-injection E is supplied to the exhaust filter 202 as unburned fuel without contributing to the actual combustion process by being injected at a timing that is largely retarded with respect to the main injection A. The unburned fuel supplied to the exhaust filter 202 reacts on the diesel oxidation catalyst 243, and the exhaust gas temperature in the exhaust filter 202 rises due to the reaction heat. Here, the level of the peaks in the graph in FIG. 19 roughly represents the difference in the fuel injection amount at each of the injection stages A to E.

The engine ECU 311 and the pre-threshing ECU 357 that are separate from each other are connected to each other via a CAN communication bus 350 so that they can communicate with each other.

The engine ECU 311 is connected to the battery 332 via a key switch 331 for applying power as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18. The key switch 331 is a rotary switch that can be rotated to three terminal positions including a cutting position, an entering position, and a starter position by a predetermined key inserted into the keyhole. Although not shown, the key switch 331 is provided on the front column 166 that supports the steering handle 11.

At least an electromagnetic solenoid of each fuel injection valve 219 for four cylinders is connected to the output side of the engine ECU 311. That is, the high-pressure fuel stored in the common rail 216 is injected from the fuel injection valve 219 in a plurality of times during one stroke while controlling the fuel injection pressure, the injection timing, the injection period, and the like, so that nitrogen oxide (NOx ), And complete combustion with reduced generation of soot, carbon dioxide (CO ₂ ) and the like is performed to improve fuel efficiency.

As shown in FIG. 17, the display ECU 351 has a display changeover switch 164 of the display device 161 connected to its input side and a liquid crystal monitor 162 of the display device 161 connected to its output side. An alarm that rings in connection with the exhaust filter 202 regeneration operation or the like on the output side of the cutting ECU 354 connected to the input side of the work clutch sensor 352 that detects the on / off state of the threshing clutch for power transmission to the threshing device 5 A buzzer 330 is connected. A regeneration switch 322 (regeneration operation member) as an input member permitting the regeneration operation of the exhaust filter 202 is provided on the input side of the pre-travel ECU 355 connected to the main shift position sensor 353 that detects the operation position of the main transmission lever 15. Is also connected.

On the input side of the ECU 356 after traveling, there is a parking brake sensor 324 that detects whether the parking brake pedal (not shown) that maintains the left and right traveling crawlers 2 that are traveling units is operated in a braking state. The auger clutch sensor 325 for detecting the on / off state of the auger clutch for power transmission to the auger 8 is connected. A regeneration lamp 328 is connected to the output side of the ECU 358 after threshing as a warning lamp that blinks in association with the regeneration operation of the exhaust filter 202. It should be noted that data relating to the sounding of the alarm buzzer 330 is stored in advance in the ROM of the reaping ECU 354, and data relating to the blinking and lighting color of the regeneration lamp 328 is stored in advance in the ROM of the ECU 357 before threshing.

The regeneration switch 322 is of a momentary operation type. That is, the regeneration switch 322 is a non-locking type push switch that generates one ON pulse signal when pressed once. The pressing time of the regeneration switch 322 by the operator is adopted as one of criteria for determining whether or not each regeneration control after the reset regeneration control (details will be described later) can be executed. A regeneration lamp 328 is built in the regeneration switch 322 of the embodiment. That is, the regeneration switch 322 is configured as a switch with a regeneration lamp 328. As shown in FIG. 13, the regeneration switch 322 is disposed in the driving cabin 10 on the left side of the steering handle 11 and in front of the main transmission lever 15. That is, the regeneration switch 322 is disposed in the vicinity where the left / right direction of the steering handle 11 intersects the front / rear direction of the main transmission lever 15.

The pre-threshing ECU 357 receives the input signal from the work clutch sensor 352 received by the cutting ECU 354, the input signal from the regeneration switch 322 and the main shift position sensor 353 received by the pre-travel ECU 355, and the post-travel ECU 356 via the CAN communication bus 349. The received input signals from the parking brake sensor 324 and the auger clutch sensor 325 are received respectively. Therefore, the pre-threshing ECU 357 can recognize the power discontinuation state (on / off) by the threshing clutch and the auger clutch, the position of the main transmission lever 15, the operation to the regeneration switch 322, the brake state of the traveling crawler 2, and the like.

Further, the pre-threshing ECU 357 designates a command signal for designating a display operation by the liquid crystal monitor 162 for the display ECU 351 and a ringing operation by the alarm buzzer 330 for the reaping ECU 354 via the CAN communication bus 349. A command signal for designating the blinking operation by the regeneration lamp 328 is transmitted to the ECU 358 after threshing, respectively. Accordingly, the display ECU 351, the reaping ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 that have received the command signal from the pre-threshing ECU 357, respectively, display operation (display contents, etc.) by the liquid crystal monitor 162, and ringing operation by the alarm buzzer 330 based on the command signal. (Volume, ringing cycle, etc.) and blinking operation (lighting color, lighting cycle, etc.) by the reproduction lamp 328 are controlled.

The ROM of the engine ECU 311 stores in advance an output characteristic map M (see FIG. 20) indicating the relationship between the rotational speed N of the engine 201 and the torque T (load). Although not described in detail, the ROM of the engine ECU 311 stores an exhaust gas flow rate map for converting the exhaust gas flow rate from the relationship between the rotational speed N of the engine 201 and the fuel injection amount, and the rotational speed N of the engine 201 and the fuel. A PM emission amount map for converting the PM emission amount of the engine 201 from the relationship with the injection amount is also stored in advance. Each map such as the output characteristic map M is obtained by experiments or the like. In the output characteristic map M shown in FIG. 20, the rotational speed N is taken on the horizontal axis and the torque T is taken on the vertical axis. The output characteristic map M is a region surrounded by a solid line Tmx drawn upwardly. A solid line Tmx is a maximum torque line representing the maximum torque for each rotational speed N. In this case, if the model of the engine 201 is the same, the output characteristic maps M stored in the engine ECU 311 are all the same (common). As shown in FIG. 20, the output characteristic map M is divided into upper and lower parts by boundary lines BL1 and BL2 representing the relationship between the rotational speed N and the torque T at a predetermined exhaust gas temperature.

The region above the first boundary line BL1 is a self-regenerating region in which PM deposited on the soot filter 244 can be oxidized and removed only by normal operation of the engine 201 (the oxidation action of the diesel oxidation catalyst 243 works). In the region between the first boundary line BL1 and the second boundary line BL2, PM is deposited on the soot filter 244 without being oxidized and removed only by the normal operation of the engine 201, but the assist regeneration control and reset regeneration control described later. This is a reproducible region that the exhaust filter 202 regenerates by execution. The region below the second boundary line BL2 is a non-reproducible region where the exhaust filter 202 is not regenerated in the assist regeneration control or the reset regeneration control. Since the exhaust gas temperature of the engine 201 in the non-renewable region is too low, the exhaust gas temperature does not rise to the regeneration boundary temperature even if the assist regeneration control or the reset regeneration control is executed from this state. That is, if the relationship between the rotational speed N of the engine 201 and the torque T is in the non-recoverable region, the exhaust filter 202 is not regenerated by the assist regeneration control or the reset regeneration control (the particulate matter collecting ability of the soot filter 244 is not recovered). ). Note that the exhaust gas temperature on the first boundary line BL1 is a self-regenerating regeneration boundary temperature (about 300 ° C.).

The engine ECU 311 basically calculates the torque of the engine 201 from the rotation speed detected by the engine rotation sensor 314 and the throttle position detected by the throttle position sensor 316, and calculates the target fuel injection amount using the torque and output characteristics. Then, fuel injection control for operating the common rail device 220 is executed based on the calculation result. The fuel injection amount of the common rail device 220 is mainly adjusted by adjusting the valve opening period of each fuel injection valve 219 and changing the injection period to each injector 215.

As a control method (regeneration control method) of the engine 201, normal operation control (self-regeneration control) in which the exhaust filter 202 spontaneously regenerates only by normal operation of the engine 201, and the clogged state of the exhaust filter 202 exceed a specified level. Then, the assist regeneration control for automatically increasing the exhaust gas temperature by utilizing the load increase of the engine 201, the reset regeneration control for increasing the exhaust gas temperature by using the post injection E, and the high idle of the post injection E and the engine 201. There is non-work regeneration control (which may be called parking regeneration control or emergency regeneration control) that increases the exhaust gas temperature in combination with the rotation speed, and recovery regeneration control that can be executed when the non-work regeneration control fails. .

通常 Normal operation control is a control format when driving on the road or during agricultural work (harvesting work). In the normal operation control, the relationship between the rotational speed N and the torque T in the engine 201 is in the self-regeneration region of the output characteristic map M, and the engine 201 is adjusted to such an extent that the PM oxidation amount in the exhaust filter 202 exceeds the PM collection amount. The exhaust gas is hot.

In the assist regeneration control, the exhaust filter 202 is regenerated by adjusting the opening degree of the intake throttle member 228 and after-injection D. That is, in the assist regeneration control, the intake air amount to the engine 201 is limited by closing the EGR valve member 231 and closing (squeezing) the intake throttle member 228 to a predetermined opening. Then, since the engine 201 load increases, the fuel injection amount of the common rail device 220 increases to maintain the set rotational speed, and the exhaust gas temperature of the engine 201 increases. In accordance with this, the diffusion combustion is activated by the after-injection D that is injected with a slight delay with respect to the main injection A, and the exhaust gas temperature of the engine 201 is raised. As a result, PM in the exhaust filter 202 is burned and removed. In any of the regeneration controls described below, the EGR valve member 231 is closed.

The reset regeneration control is performed when the assist regeneration control fails (when the clogged state of the exhaust filter 202 does not improve and PM remains), or when the accumulated drive time TI of the engine 201 is equal to or longer than a set time TI1 (for example, about 100 hours). It is done when it becomes. In the reset regeneration control, the exhaust filter 202 is regenerated by performing post injection E in addition to the assist regeneration control. That is, in the reset regeneration control, in addition to the adjustment of the opening degree of the intake throttle member 228 and the after-injection D, the unburned fuel is directly supplied into the exhaust filter 202 by the post-injection E, and the unburned fuel is supplied by the diesel oxidation catalyst 243. By burning, the exhaust gas temperature in the exhaust filter 202 is raised (about 560 ° C.). As a result, the PM in the exhaust filter 202 is forcibly burned and removed.

Non-work regeneration control is performed when reset regeneration control fails (when the clogged state of the exhaust filter 202 does not improve and PM remains). In the non-work regeneration control, in addition to the mode of the reset regeneration control, the exhaust gas temperature of the engine 201 is increased by maintaining the rotational speed N of the engine 201 at a high idle rotational speed (maximum rotational speed, for example, 2200 rpm). Above, the exhaust gas temperature is also raised by the post injection E in the exhaust filter 202 (about 600 ° C.). As a result, the PM in the exhaust filter 202 is forcibly burned and removed under better conditions than the reset regeneration control. Note that the intake throttle member 228 in non-work regeneration control is not throttled, but is completely closed. The after-injection D in the non-work regeneration control is performed by retarding (retarding) the assist regeneration control and the reset regeneration control.

In non-work regeneration control, the output of the engine 201 is limited to a maximum output during parking that is lower than the maximum output (for example, about 80% of the maximum output). In this case, since the rotational speed N of the engine 201 is maintained at a high idle rotational speed, the fuel injection amount of the common rail device 220 is adjusted so that the torque T is suppressed and the maximum output during parking is achieved.

The recovery regeneration control is performed when the non-work regeneration control has failed (when the clogged state of the exhaust filter 202 is not improved and PM is excessively deposited). The recovery reproduction control of the embodiment is executed in two stages of recovery first reproduction control and recovery second reproduction control. The recovery first regeneration control gradually regenerates the exhaust filter 202 by gradually burning and removing the PM in the exhaust filter 202 in a situation where there is a risk of runaway combustion of the excessively accumulated PM. In the recovery second regeneration control, the exhaust filter 202 is promptly regenerated in a situation where there is no risk of runaway combustion.

The recovery recovery control as a whole is basically performed in the same manner as in the non-work regeneration control mode. However, in the recovery first regeneration control, for example, fuel injection in post injection E is performed in order to prevent runaway combustion of overdeposited PM. For example, by reducing the amount, the exhaust gas temperature in the exhaust filter 202 is lower than the non-work regeneration control at a temperature TP3 (for example, 450 ° C. or less) and takes a longer time (eg, 3 hours) than the non-work regeneration control. Then, the PM in the exhaust filter 202 is gradually burned and removed. In the recovery first regeneration control, the output of the engine 201 is limited to the maximum output during recovery that is lower than the maximum output during parking (for example, about 80% of the maximum output). In this case, the fuel injection amount of the common rail device 220 is adjusted so that not only the torque T of the engine 201 but also the rotational speed N is suppressed and the maximum output during recovery is obtained.

In the recovery second regeneration control, the exhaust gas temperature in the exhaust filter 202 is higher than that in the recovery first regeneration control by closing the intake throttle member 228, after-injection D, post-injection E, and the high idle rotation speed of the engine 201. The exhaust filter 202 is quickly regenerated so as to be TP4 (for example, 550 ° C. or higher). That is, the mode of recovery second regeneration control is the same as the mode of non-work regeneration control.

In normal operation control, of course, in assist regeneration control and reset regeneration control, for example, the power of the engine 201 is transmitted to the traveling crawler 2 as a traveling unit, the reaping device 3 and the threshing device 5 as an agricultural working unit, etc. It is possible to perform traveling and farm work (the engine 201 can be driven in normal operation). In the non-work regeneration control and the recovery regeneration control, the engine 201 is driven exclusively for PM combustion removal, and the traveling crawler 2, the reaping device 3, the threshing device 5 and the like are not driven by the power of the engine 201.

(7). Exhaust Filter Regeneration Control Mode Next, an example of the exhaust filter 202 regeneration control by the engine ECU 311 will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. 21 and 22. Each regeneration control described above is executed by the engine ECU 311 based on a command from the ECU 357 before threshing. That is, the algorithm (program) shown in the flowcharts of FIGS. 21 and 22 is stored in the ROM of the ECU 357 before threshing, and the algorithm is called into the RAM and then processed by the CPU to issue a command to the engine ECU 311. When the ECU 311 processes a command from the ECU 357 before threshing, each regeneration control described above is executed.

During normal operation control, the speed monitor 361 indicating the traveling speed (vehicle speed) of the traveling machine body 1, the load graph 362 indicating the engine load, and the grain storage amount in the grain tank 7 are displayed on the liquid crystal monitor 162 as the normal report 360. A tank monitor 363 for notifying, a fuel gauge 364 for notifying the remaining amount of fuel, a sub-shift monitor 365 for notifying the setting state of the sub-shift lever 16, and a cutting speed change monitor 366 for notifying the setting state of the driving speed in the cutting device 3 are displayed. (See FIG. 23). Further, the exhaust filter 202 regeneration control is configured so that either the manual mode or the automatic mode can be selected. In this embodiment, as will be described later, the exhaust filter 202 is controlled based on an operation on a key switch 331 for starting the engine 201. 202 Playback control is set to manual mode.

Further, during normal operation control, the liquid crystal monitor 162 has a speed report 361 indicating the traveling speed (vehicle speed) of the traveling machine 1, a load graph 362 indicating the engine load, and grain storage in the grain tank 7. A tank monitor 363 for informing the amount of fuel, a fuel gauge 364 for informing the remaining amount of fuel, an auxiliary transmission monitor 365 for informing the setting state of the auxiliary transmission lever 16, and a cutting speed change monitor 366 for informing the setting state of the driving speed in the reaping device 3. Display (see FIG. 23).

As shown in FIG. 21, in the exhaust filter 202 regeneration control, first, if the key switch 331 is on (S101: YES), the engine 201 is warmed up based on the coolant temperature of the engine 201 detected by the coolant temperature sensor 319. Is checked (S150). When it is determined that the cooling water temperature of the engine 201 is lower than the predetermined temperature and the warm-up operation of the engine 201 is not completed (S150: No), the screen display of the liquid crystal monitor 162 is displayed as normal information 360 (FIG. 23) to warm-up operation request information 382 (see FIG. 24) that prompts the execution of the warm-up operation. On the screen of the warm-up operation request information 382 shown in FIG. 24, the character data 383 of “Warm-up operation request”, the character data 384 of “Please wait until the warm-up operation is performed”, and the operation instruction indicator indicating the function of the display changeover switch 164 370 etc. are displayed. At this time, the pre-threshing ECU 357 transmits a command signal indicating that a warm-up operation is requested to the display ECU 351 via the CAN communication bus 349. Accordingly, the display ECU 351 drives the liquid crystal monitor 162 based on the received command signal, displays the screen of the warm-up operation request information 382, and prompts the operator to perform the warm-up operation.

On the other hand, when it is determined that the cooling water temperature of the engine 201 is higher than the predetermined temperature and the warming-up operation of the engine 201 is completed (S150: Yes), the engine rotation sensor 314, the cooling water temperature sensor 319, the differential pressure sensor The detected values of the 281 and the DPF temperature sensor 282, the openings of the intake throttle member 228 and the EGR valve member 231 and the fuel injection amount by the common rail device 220 are read (S102). Next, if the cumulative drive time TI after executing the reset regeneration control or the non-work regeneration control in the past is equal to or longer than the set time TI2 (for example, 100 hours) (S151: Yes), the process proceeds to step S201 which is a reset standby mode. To do.

At this stage, the reproduction lamp 328 blinks slowly in a first color (for example, yellow) (for example, 0.5 Hz), and the alarm buzzer 330 sounds intermittently (for example, 0.5 Hz). Then, the screen display of the liquid crystal monitor 162 is changed from the normal information 360 to reset reproduction request information 367 (see FIG. 25) that prompts execution of reset reproduction control. On the screen of the reset regeneration request information 367 shown in FIG. 25, the “exhaust filter regeneration request” character data 368, “please press and hold the regeneration switch” character data 369, and operation instructions indicating the functions of the display changeover switch 164 A sign 370 or the like is displayed. That is, since the exhaust filter 202 regeneration control is set to the manual mode when the key switch 331 is turned on in S101, the operator is prompted to execute the reset regeneration control by operating the regeneration switch 322.

At this stage, the reproduction lamp 328 blinks slowly in a first color (for example, yellow) (for example, 0.5 Hz), and the alarm buzzer 330 sounds intermittently (for example, 0.5 Hz). Then, the screen display of the liquid crystal monitor 162 is changed from the normal information 360 to reset reproduction request information 367 (see FIG. 25) that prompts execution of reset reproduction control. On the screen of the reset regeneration request information 367 shown in FIG. 25, the “exhaust filter regeneration request” character data 368, “please press and hold the regeneration switch” character data 369, and operation instructions indicating the functions of the display changeover switch 164 A sign 370 or the like is displayed.

At this time, the pre-threshing ECU 357 transmits a command signal indicating the reset standby mode before the reset regeneration control to each of the display ECU 351, the cutting ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 via the CAN communication bus 349. Therefore, the display ECU 351, the reaping ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 drive the liquid crystal monitor 162, the alarm buzzer 330, and the regeneration lamp 328, respectively, based on the command signal indicating the reset standby mode. Thereby, as described above, the first color blinking of the regeneration lamp 328, the low-speed sounding of the alarm buzzer 330, and the screen display of the reset regeneration request information 367 are respectively made to prompt the operator to execute the reset regeneration control.

Further, the operation instruction mark 370 means that the screen display of the liquid crystal monitor 162 returns from the reset reproduction request information 367 to the normal information 360 by turning on the display changeover switch 164. Here, when the display changeover switch 164 is turned on while the reset reproduction request information 367 is displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal monitor 162 without turning on the reproduction switch 322, the screen display of the liquid crystal monitor 162 is changed to the normal information 360. Transitions to the reset reproduction request information 367 alternately at a predetermined timing (for example, every 2 seconds). When the reset regeneration control is required, the operator can confirm both the normal information 360 and the reset regeneration request information 367, and considers that there is no problem in the operation of the combine during traveling on the road or farming.

When the regeneration switch 322 is turned on for a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds), if the exhaust gas temperature TP in the exhaust filter 202 is equal to or higher than TP1 (for example, 250 ° C.) (S201: YES), reset regeneration control is executed (S202). ). At this stage, the regeneration lamp 328 is turned on in the first color, and the alarm buzzer 330 is stopped from sounding. Then, the screen display of the liquid crystal monitor 162 is changed from the reset reproduction request information 367 to the normal information 360 (see FIG. 26). In addition to the above-described speedometer 361 and the like, an information indicator 371 such as a symbol for notifying that the reset reproduction control is being executed or a symbol mark is displayed on the screen of the normal information 360 during the reset reproduction control shown in FIG. indicate. For this reason, even on the screen showing the normal information 360, the operator can easily recognize that the reset regeneration control is being executed, and can call the operator's attention.

At this time, the pre-threshing ECU 357 transmits a command signal indicating that the reset regeneration control is being executed to the display ECU 351, the reaping ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 via the CAN communication bus 349. Accordingly, the display ECU 351, the reaping ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 drive the liquid crystal monitor 162, the alarm buzzer 330, and the regeneration lamp 328, respectively, based on the received command signal. As a result, as described above, the first color of the regeneration lamp 328 is turned on, the alarm buzzer 330 stops sounding, and the screen display of the notification indicator 371 is made to notify the operator that reset regeneration is being performed.

When the regeneration switch 322 is off or the exhaust gas temperature TP in the exhaust filter 202 is lower than TP1 (S201: NO), the PM accumulation amount in the exhaust filter 202 is estimated (S203), and the PM accumulation amount is the prescribed amount Mr ( For example, if a predetermined time TI5 (for example, 1 hour) elapses in a state of less than 6 g / l) (S204: YES), the process returns from the reset standby mode to the normal operation control. If the predetermined time TI6 (for example, 3 hours) has elapsed with NO in step S204 (S205: YES), there is a concern about the possibility of PM over-deposition, so the parking standby mode before non-work regeneration control is in effect. The process proceeds to step S301.

During execution of the reset regeneration control, the PM accumulation amount in the exhaust filter 202 is estimated (S206). The PM deposition amount is less than a prescribed amount Mr (for example, 10 g / l) (S207: NO), and the exhaust gas temperature TP in the exhaust filter 202 is equal to or higher than TP2 (for example, 600 ° C.) for a predetermined time TI7 (for example, 25 Minutes) (S208: YES) or if a predetermined time TI8 (for example, 30 minutes) has elapsed since the start of reset regeneration control (S209: YES), the reset regeneration control is terminated and the normal operation control is resumed. If the PM accumulation amount is equal to or greater than the prescribed amount Mr (S207: YES), it is considered that the reset regeneration control has failed, and there is a concern about the possibility of PM over-deposition, so step S301 is a parking standby mode before non-work regeneration control. Migrate to

As shown in FIG. 22, in the parking standby mode, first, the PM accumulation amount in the exhaust filter 202 is estimated (S301). At this stage, the regeneration lamp 328 remains off, but the alarm buzzer 330 sounds intermittently at high speed (for example, 1.0 Hz). Then, the screen display of the liquid crystal monitor 162 transitions to first non-work regeneration request information 372 (see FIG. 27) for notifying execution of non-work regeneration control. On the screen of the first non-work regeneration request information 372 shown in FIG. 27, the character data 373 of “exhaust filter regeneration request”, the character data 374 of “park in a safe place”, “work clutch“ off ”” Character data 375, character data 376 of “parking brake“ ON ””, and the like are displayed.

At this time, the pre-threshing ECU 357 transmits a command signal indicating that it is in the parking standby mode to each of the display ECU 351, the reaping ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 via the CAN communication bus 349. Accordingly, the display ECU 351, the reaping ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 respectively drive the liquid crystal monitor 162, the alarm buzzer 330, and the regeneration lamp 328 based on the command signal indicating the parking standby mode. Thereby, as described above, the lighting stop of the regeneration lamp 328, the high-speed sounding of the alarm buzzer 330, and the screen display of the first non-work regeneration request information 372 are respectively made, and the execution of the non-work regeneration control is notified to the operator. .

If the PM accumulation amount is less than a prescribed amount Mb (for example, 12 g / l) (S302: NO) and within a predetermined time TI9 (for example, 10 hours) (S303: NO), until a preset non-work transition condition is satisfied. Wait (S304). If the PM accumulation amount is equal to or greater than the prescribed amount Mb (S302: YES), or if a predetermined time TI9 (for example, 10 hours) has elapsed in the parking standby mode (S303: YES), there is a concern about the possibility of PM overdeposition. Therefore, the process proceeds to step S401 which is a recovery standby mode before the recovery reproduction control.

The non-work transition condition shown in step S304 is that the parking brake sensor 324 is in the locked state (on), the main transmission lever 15 is in the neutral position, the threshing clutch is disengaged (power cut off state), and the regeneration switch 322 is set for a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds). On, the engine 201 has six conditions: a low idle rotation speed (minimum rotation speed when there is no load) and a detected value of the coolant temperature sensor 319 of a predetermined value (for example, 65 ° C.) or more. In this case, the parking brake sensor 324 is locked when the parking brake pedal is depressed and the traveling crawler 2 is braked, and the parking brake pedal is depressed to release the traveling crawler 2 brake. Is released (off).

In step S304, the parking brake sensor 324 is in the locked state (on), the main transmission lever 15 is in the neutral position, the threshing clutch is disengaged, the engine 201 is at the low idle rotation speed, and the detected value of the cooling water temperature sensor 319 is equal to or greater than a predetermined value. When the five conditions are satisfied, the reproduction lamp 328 blinks at a low speed in the second color (for example, orange), the alarm buzzer 330 is switched to intermittent low-speed sound, and the screen display of the liquid crystal monitor 162 is in non-working reproduction control. Transitions to the second non-work regeneration request information 377 (see FIG. 28) urging execution of. On the screen of the second non-work regeneration request information 377 shown in FIG. 28, the character data 378 “Please press and hold the regeneration switch” is displayed in addition to the character data 373 of “exhaust filter regeneration request” described above. The

At this time, the pre-threshing ECU 357 sends a command signal indicating that the regeneration switch 322 is requested to be pressed in the parking standby mode to each of the display ECU 351, the reaping ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 via the CAN communication bus 349. Send. Accordingly, the display ECU 351, the reaping ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 drive the liquid crystal monitor 162, the alarm buzzer 330, and the regeneration lamp 328, respectively, based on the received command signal. Thereby, as described above, the second color blinking of the regeneration lamp 328, the low-speed sounding of the alarm buzzer 330, and the screen display of the second non-work regeneration request information 377 are respectively performed, and the operator performs the non-work regeneration control. Prompt. In addition, as a non-work transition condition in step 304, it may be added as a condition that the auger clutch is disengaged (power cut-off state).

If the regeneration switch 322 is turned on for a predetermined time (S304: YES), six non-work transition conditions are established, and non-work regeneration control is executed (S305). At this stage, the regeneration lamp 328 is turned on with the second color, and the alarm buzzer 330 is stopped. Then, the screen display of the liquid crystal monitor 162 transits to reproduction information 379 (see FIG. 29) indicating that parking or recovery reproduction control is being performed. On the screen of the reproduction information 379 shown in FIG. 29, the character data 380 “exhaust filter regeneration”, the character data 381 “wait until the end of regeneration”, and the like are displayed.

At this time, the pre-threshing ECU 357 transmits a command signal indicating that the non-work regeneration control is being performed to the display ECU 351, the reaping ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 via the CAN communication bus 349. Accordingly, the display ECU 351, the reaping ECU 354, and the post-threshing ECU 358 drive the liquid crystal monitor 162, the alarm buzzer 330, and the regeneration lamp 328, respectively, based on the received command signal. As a result, as described above, the second color of the regeneration lamp 328 is turned on, the alarm buzzer 330 stops sounding, and the screen display of the regeneration information 379 is made to notify the operator that the non-work regeneration is being performed.

During execution of non-work regeneration control, the PM accumulation amount in the exhaust filter 202 is estimated (S306). The PM accumulation amount is less than a prescribed amount Ms (for example, 8 g / l) (S307: YES), and the exhaust gas temperature TP in the exhaust filter 202 is TP2 (for example, 600 ° C.) or more for a predetermined time TI10 (for example, 25 minutes). (S308: YES), or if a predetermined time TI11 (for example, 30 minutes) has elapsed from the start of non-work regeneration control (S309: YES), the non-work regeneration control is terminated and the normal operation control is resumed.

While the non-work regeneration control is being executed, if the PM accumulation amount in the C method is equal to or greater than the prescribed amount Cs (S307: YES), the parking brake pedal is released and the parking brake sensor 324 is released (off). When the interlock is released by such as (S311: YES), the non-work regeneration control is interrupted, and the regeneration lamp 328 blinks at a low speed in the second color. At this time, when the pre-threshing ECU 357 gives a command signal to the post-threshing ECU 358, the regeneration lamp 328 is blinked at a low speed by the second color. If the non-work regeneration control is interrupted, the non-work regeneration control is resumed by turning on the regeneration switch 322.

In S311, whether or not the non-work regeneration control can be interrupted is determined based on the state of the parking brake sensor 324. When the regeneration switch 322 is pressed and the regeneration switch 322 is turned off, the non-work regeneration control is performed. It does not matter as something that interrupts. Thereby, the non-work regeneration control of the exhaust filter 202 can be interrupted without performing troublesome operations such as the operation of stopping the engine 201 and interrupting the non-work regeneration control of the exhaust filter 202. For example, the non-work regeneration control of the exhaust filter 202 can be interrupted while continuously operating the threshing device 5 or the like.

(8). Summary As is apparent from the above description and FIGS. 21 and 22, the traveling machine body 1 supported by the left and right traveling units 2, the common rail engine 201 mounted on the traveling machine body 1, and the agricultural work provided on the traveling machine body 1.

Parts

3, 5, an exhaust gas purifying device 202 disposed in the exhaust path of the engine 201, an engine ECU 311 for controlling the driving of the engine 201, and a separate ECU (device ECU) separate from the engine ECU 311 351, 354 to 358, and the

ECUs

311, 351 and 354 to 358 are electrically connected to each other, and regeneration control for burning and removing particulate matter accumulated in the exhaust gas purification device 201 can be executed. In an agricultural farm vehicle, the temperature of the engine 201 is below a predetermined value based on the operation of the key switch 331 for starting the engine 201. At this time, a request for warm-up operation is displayed, and when the engine 201 temperature rises above a predetermined value, the engine ECU 311 starts regeneration control of the exhaust gas purifying device 202. At the above time, the regeneration control operation of the engine ECU 311 is executed. Accordingly, the exhaust gas purification device 202 is appropriately controlled to be regenerated by supplying the exhaust gas purification device 202 with high-temperature exhaust gas that can burn and remove particulate matter accumulated in the exhaust gas purification device 202. Can be executed.

Further, according to the present invention, the regeneration control of the exhaust gas purifying device 202 is an agricultural vehicle in which the regeneration control is executed in one or both of the manual mode and the automatic mode, and the key switch 331 for starting the engine 201 is operated. Based on the assumption that the regeneration control is set to the manual mode, even when the regeneration control of the exhaust gas purifying device 202 is stopped in the automatic mode, the engine is restarted. The regeneration control of the exhaust gas purification device 202 is started in the manual mode, and the regeneration control operation unexpected by the operator can be prevented in advance.

Further, an input member (regeneration operation member) 322 for executing the regeneration control is further provided, the input member 322 is connected to any one of the

separate ECUs

351, 354 to 358, and the input member 322 is turned on based on the ON operation. Since the engine ECU 311 executes the regeneration control according to any command from the

separate ECUs

351, 354 to 358, the regeneration control can be executed without any trouble while reducing the load applied to the engine ECU 311. Further, since the regeneration control is not executed unless the input member 322 is turned on, that is, without the operator's intention, the operator can assume in advance the impact of torque fluctuation and the change in engine sound, and the operator feels uncomfortable due to the regeneration control. Can be eliminated.

The input member 322 includes a warning lamp 328 for alerting, and when the warning lamp 328 is connected to any one of the

separate ECUs

351, 354 to 358, and the regeneration control is required, the separate body Any one of the

ECUs

351, 354 to 358 blinks the alarm lamp 328, and any one of the

separate ECUs

351, 354 to 358 lights the alarm lamp 328 while the regeneration control is being executed. After reducing such a load, the different modes of the alarm lamp 328 can distinguish between the case where the regeneration control is required and the execution of the regeneration control, and the operator can easily grasp the execution state of the regeneration control. .

Further, the regeneration display lamp 328 for outputting the regeneration state of the exhaust gas purification device 202 is further provided, and the regeneration is performed in accordance with a plurality of types of regeneration control for executing the regeneration control of the exhaust gas purification device 202. Since the lighting color of the display lamp 328 is changed, the type of regeneration control of the exhaust gas purification device 202 can be determined by the lighting color of the regeneration display lamp 328. Accordingly, a plurality of regeneration control modes of the exhaust gas purifying device 202 can be displayed without providing a plurality of regeneration display lamps 328. That is, the operator can easily confirm the regeneration control state of the exhaust gas purifying device 202 only by looking at the one regeneration display lamp 328.

As apparent from the above description and FIGS. 21 and 22, as the plurality of regeneration controls, at least an assist regeneration control S106 using an increase in the load of the engine 201 and a reset regeneration control S202 using post-injection E are provided. And when the reset regeneration control S202 is required, the engine ECU 311 executes the reset regeneration control S202 based on the ON operation of the input member 322, and when the assist regeneration control S106 is required, Since the engine ECU 311 executes the assist regeneration control S106, the regeneration controls S106 and S202 can be performed without any trouble while reducing the load on the engine ECU 311.

Further, if the input member 322 is turned on, that is, if there is no intention of the operator, the reset regeneration control S202 is not executed. Therefore, the operator can assume in advance the impact of torque fluctuation and the change in engine sound, which is attributed to the reset regeneration control S202. To eliminate the operator's discomfort. Further, as understood from the presence or absence of the post injection E, the assist regeneration control S106 is executed when the amount of the particulate matter deposited is small compared to the reset regeneration control S202. There is little need to actively notify the operator of the execution. Therefore, if the configuration of the embodiment is adopted, since the operator is not notified of the execution of the assist regeneration control S106, there is little possibility of distracting the operator during farm work and the operator is not forced to perform troublesome operations.

As is clear from the above description and FIGS. 21 and 22, the traveling machine body 1 supported by the left and right traveling units 2, the common rail engine 201 mounted on the traveling machine body 1, and the agricultural work unit provided in the traveling machine body 1. 3, 5 and an exhaust gas purification device 202 disposed in the exhaust path of the engine 201, and a farm vehicle capable of executing a plurality of regeneration controls for removing particulate matter accumulated in the exhaust gas purification device 202 by combustion. The reset regeneration control S202 using post-injection E is provided as one of the plurality of regeneration controls. During the execution of the reset regeneration S202, the power of the engine 201 is used for the traveling unit 2 and the

farm working unit

3 , 5 so that the exhaust gas temperature rises, but the road regeneration and farm work (consumption) are performed for the execution of the reset regeneration control S202. There is no need to interrupt the work). Therefore, it is possible to avoid a decrease in workability on the agricultural vehicle caused by the reset regeneration control S202.

In addition, when an input member 322 for executing the reset regeneration control S202 is provided and the reset regeneration control S202 is required, the reset regeneration control S202 is executed by continuously turning on the input member 322 for a predetermined time. The reset regeneration control S202 can be executed with the operator's certain intention. If the input member 322 is inadvertently hit, the reset regeneration control S202 is not performed, and safety is high.

Furthermore, the display device 161 provided in the control unit 10 of the traveling machine body 1 and a display switching member 164 for switching the screen display of the display device 161 are provided. When the display switching member 164 is turned on while the reproduction request information 367 to be urged is displayed on the display device 161 and the reproduction request information 367 is displayed, the screen display of the display device 161 is displayed during normal operation control. Since the normal information 360 and the regeneration request information 367 are alternately shifted at a predetermined timing, when the reset regeneration control S202 is required, the operator can control the operation of the combine during traveling on the road or farming. Both the normal information 360 and the reset reproduction request information 367 can be easily confirmed.

As is clear from the above description and FIGS. 21 and 22, the traveling machine body 1 supported by the left and right traveling units 2, the common rail engine 201 mounted on the traveling machine body 1, and the agricultural work unit provided in the traveling machine body 1. 3, 5 and an exhaust gas purification device 202 disposed in the exhaust path of the engine 201, and a farm vehicle capable of executing a plurality of regeneration controls for removing particulate matter accumulated in the exhaust gas purification device 202 by combustion. The non-work regeneration control S305 that combines post-injection E and high idle rotation speed is provided as one of the plurality of regeneration controls. During the execution of the non-work regeneration control S305, the power of the engine 201 is Since it cannot be transmitted to the traveling unit 2 and the

agricultural working units

3 and 5, the engine 201 is driven exclusively for the combustion removal of the particulate matter. , The non-working reproduction control S305 efficiently performed. Since the efficiency of the non-work regeneration control S305 can be increased, the frequency of execution of the non-work regeneration control S305 can be reduced to avoid interruption of road traveling and farm work (harvesting work) as much as possible.

Further, as the plurality of regeneration controls, it further includes a reset regeneration control S202 using the post injection E, and is set to shift to the non-work regeneration control S305 when the reset regeneration control S202 fails. This also contributes to a decrease in the execution frequency of the non-work regeneration control S305.
