Title: Exhaust emission control device for internal combustion engine
Inventor: NISHIMURA HIDEHIRO
IPC: B01D53/94
Filed: 2006-12-06
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an exhaust emission control device for an internal combustion engine sufficiently purifying exhaust components such as CO, THC and NOx included in exhaust gas, using three catalysts.  <P>SOLUTION: Rhodium is carried in an upstream side part 40A of the second catalyst 40, and palladium is carried in a downstream side part 40B of the second catalyst 40. CO and THC included in exhaust gas are oxidized with secondary air led into an exhaust pipe 20 through a secondary air lead-in pipe 60, palladium carried in the second catalyst 40 and palladium carried in the third catalyst 50. Consequently, even when secondary air led into the exhaust pipe 20 in a position between the second catalyst 40 and the third catalyst 50 flows back to the upstream side, the secondary air is used to oxidize CO and THC with palladium carried in the second catalyst 40, thereby hardly causing the secondary air to flow back to rhodium, passing through palladium carried in the secondary catalyst 40.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a control valve capable of solving the problem that high-pressure fire extinction water in piping on the upstream side is pressure-fed at high speed in the piping of downstream side without being filled with water since a main valve is separated rapidly from a valve seat, and forced to be fully opened at a stretch when fire extinction water is supplied to a compression chamber by opening the starting valve of the control valve.  <P>SOLUTION: A throttle opening S arranged in the piping 9 of a downstream side generates a pressure difference on the downstream side, and this pressure difference is controlled by a control means, and the opening degree of the main valve 27 of a control valve is controlled so that a turbulent flow may not be generated. Furthermore, high-pressure fire extinction water in piping 8 on the upstream is not pressure-fed at high speed in the piping 9 of the downstream side since the main valve 27 of the control valve is not fully opened until the downstream side K2 of a throttle opening S has been fully filled with water. Additionally, at a stage in which the downstream side K2 of the throttle opening S has been fully filled with water, and discharging is started, since the pressure difference of the throttle opening S is kept small by a control means, the main valve 27 of the control valve is fully opened smoothly, and a water hammer by a turbulent flow is not generated in a nozzle or the piping of fire extinguishing equipment.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
