ABSTRACT:
A device for regenerating a soot burn-off filter in an exhaust gas conduit of a diesel engine by means of a fuel/air mixture, part of which at least is ignited in the combustion space of at least one cylinder. The fuel/air mixture is guided out of the combustion space through a gas duct in the cylinder head, controlled by a by-pass valve, into the exhaust gas conduit upstream of the soot burn-off filter. The simple and low-cost device is suitable for reliable ignition of a soot burnoff filter located relatively far from the engine. The by-pass valve can be actuated by the driver in order to increase the engine braking power and can be driven into an open position by a control unit as a function of the parameters describing the regeneration phase.
