Abstract:
Provided is a method for changing gear ratio in a gearbox comprising: receiving a signal to change the gear ratio; calculating braking torque that the engine should provide to reduce the rotational speed of the engine to a target rotational speed; phase-shifting a second camshaft in relation to the crankshaft, to a state where the exhaust valve is controlled to be opened during the expansion stroke and closed during the exhaust stroke; disconnecting the engine from the driving wheel; opening and closing the exhaust valve with a decompression device in a transition area between an exhaust stroke and an inlet stroke and also between a compression stroke and an expansion stroke, when the piston is at a top dead center in the cylinder to achieve engine braking through compression in the cylinders during the exhaust stroke and the compression stroke, and f) shifting a gear in the gearbox.
Abstract:
A method to control a four-stroke combustion engine, comprising at least one cylinder; a piston arranged in each cylinder; at least one inlet valve arranged in each cylinder which is connected with an inlet system; at least one first camshaft which controls each inlet valve; at least one exhaust valve arranged in each cylinder which is connected with an exhaust system; at least one second camshaft which controls each exhaust valve; and a crankshaft which controls each camshaft. At least one phase-shifting device is arranged between the crankshaft and the second camshaft, to phase-shift the second camshaft in relation to the crankshaft to a state, where the exhaust valve is controlled in such a way, that it is opened during the expansion stroke of the engine and closed during the exhaust stroke of the engine, to achieve engine braking through compression in the cylinders during the exhaust stroke.
Abstract:
A method and vehicle embodying the method are provided for deceleration of a vehicle comprising a combustion engine comprising at least one cylinder to which fuel is supplied, a piston in each cylinder, at least one inlet valve in each cylinder, which is connected with an inlet system, a first camshaft controlling the inlet valve, at least one exhaust valve in each cylinder, which is connected with an exhaust system, a second camshaft controlling the at least one exhaust valve and a crankshaft controlling each camshaft. The method comprising a) closing the fuel supply to all cylinders, b) phase-shifting each camshaft in relation to the crankshaft to a position where no air is supplied to the exhaust system when the pistons move forwards and backwards in each cylinder, and c) controlling a gearbox to engage a gear that increases the crankshaft's rotation speed, which decreases the vehicle's speed.
