Abstract
An exhaust purifying device mounted in a working vehicle includes: an exhaust passage through which an exhaust gas discharged from an engine flows; a throttle valve configured to change a passage area of the exhaust passage; an exhaust aftertreatment device disposed downstream of the throttle valve; and a valve controller configured to control an open degree of the throttle valve. The valve controller is configured to control the open degree of the throttle valve to be larger in a low load region below a predetermined load range and in a high load region exceeding the predetermined load range than in a medium load region that is the predetermined load range.

An exhaust purifying device mounted in a working vehicle, the exhaust purifying device comprising:
- an exhaust passage through which an exhaust gas discharged from an engine flows;
- a throttle valve configured to change a passage area of the exhaust passage;
- an exhaust aftertreatment device disposed downstream of the throttle valve;
- and
- a valve controller configured to control an open degree of the throttle valve, wherein the valve controller is configured to:
- control the open degree of the throttle valve in each of a low load region below a predetermined load range and a high load region exceeding the predetermined load range to be larger than the open degree of the throttle valve in a medium load region that is the predetermined load range,
- control the open degree of the throttle valve in the low load region to be the same as the open degree of the throttle valve in the high load region, and
- maintain the open degree of the throttle valve to be unchanged based on the working vehicle directly transitioning from the high load region to the low load region.
An exhaust purifying device mounted in a working vehicle, the exhaust purifying device comprising:
- an exhaust passage through which an exhaust gas discharged from an engine flows;
- a throttle valve configured to change a passage area of the exhaust passage;
- an exhaust aftertreatment device disposed downstream of the throttle valve;
- and
- a valve controller configured to control an open degree of the throttle valve, wherein the valve controller is configured to:
- control the open degree of the throttle valve in a medium load region that is a predetermined load range to be smaller than the open degree of the throttle valve in each of load ranges different from the medium load region,
- control the open degree of the throttle valve in each of the load ranges to be the same, and
- maintain the open degree of the throttle valve to be unchanged based on the working vehicle directly transitioning between the load ranges without transitioning to the medium load region.
An exhaust purifying device mounted in a working vehicle, the exhaust purifying device comprising:
- an exhaust passage through which an exhaust gas discharged from an engine flows;
- a throttle valve configured to change a passage area of the exhaust passage;
- an exhaust aftertreatment device disposed downstream of the throttle valve;
- and
- a valve controller configured to control an open degree of the throttle valve, wherein the valve controller is configured to:
- control the open degree of the throttle valve in each of a low load region below a predetermined load range and a high load region exceeding the predetermined load range to be larger than the open degree of the throttle valve in a medium load region that is the predetermined load range,
- control the open degree of the throttle valve in the low load region to be the same as the open degree of the throttle valve in the high load region, and
- maintain the open degree of the throttle valve to be unchanged based on an accelerator of the working vehicle changing from a full open state to an accelerator-off state by applying a brake.
