MUMBAI, India, Oct. 11 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517092160 A) filed by Robert Bosch Gmbh, Stuttgart, Germany, on Sept. 25, for 'gas injector control method.'
Inventor(s) include Burock, Torsten; and Tuerker, Oezguer.
The application for the patent was published on Oct. 10, under issue no. 41/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a method for controlling a gas injector which injects a gaseous medium, in particular a gaseous fuel, into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. The gas injector comprises a closing element for opening and closing at least one passage opening at a sealing seat, and an actuator for actuating the closing element on the basis of a control characteristic curve, the actuator being designed to open the closing element at the beginning of actuation and to close it at the end of actuation. The gas injector also comprises a stroke stop which limits the maximum stroke of the closing element. The method comprises the steps of: determining the control characteristic curve; determining a critical operating range, the critical operating range being present if the position of the closing element is undefined after reaching the stroke stop due to an opening bounce; determining whether the end of actuation is within the critical operating range; and adapting the control characteristic of the actuator so that the end of actuation is outside the critical operating range."
The patent application was internationally filed on Mar. 19, 2024, under International application No.PCT/EP2024/057261.
