@ An angle of an ignition timing for a specific cylinder is gradually advanced. A comparison is made between the previous output of a knock detection circuit for the cylinder having its angle advanced and the present output thereof by a comparator (107). The comparator (107) evaluates an occurrence of a knock when an output signal therefrom changes drastically. The signal (111) from the comparator (107) rewrites the knock evaluation reference value in each cylinder written in the memory (108). When an output from the knock sensor (101) is larger than that of the memory (108), an ignition timing retard angle signal is output from the comparator (109). As a result, the apparatus of the present invention can control ignition timing without errors due to the deterioration with age or manufacturing errors, as it can correct knocking detection sensibility of the apparatus.
摘要:
In an air-fuel ratio control apparatus for controlling the air-fuel ratio of an engine (1) in accordance with the output of an O2 sensor (3), in response to the starting of the engine (1) the output voltage of the 0 2 sensor (3) is sampled at intervals of a unit time. The slope of the output voltage waveform of the O 2 sensor (3) is computed from the successively sampled values. The computed value is compared with a predetermined value indicative of a slope value attained when the 0 2 sensor (3) is activated and thus it is considered that the O 2 sensor (3) is activated when the computed value is greater than the predetermined value.

A malfunction monitoring apparatus for a secondary air supply system of an internal combustion engine includes an air flow sensor (2) for measuring the flow rate of an air flowing into an intake air path of the engine, a secondary air introducing path (32) disposed in the intake air path on the downstream side of a measuring position of the air flow rate for taking in a part of the air through the intake air path as a secondary air, a secondary air supply device (8) for supplying the secondary air to an exhaust gas path, and a control unit (3). The apparatus may further includes a pressure sensor (14) for detecting the internal pressure of an intake manifold. The control unit determines a secondary air flow rate (Qs) from a difference between a first air flow rate (Qa) measured by the air flow sensor when the secondary air is not being supplied from the secondary air introducing path to the exhaust gas path and a second air flow rate (Qb) measured by the air flow sensor when the secondary air is being'supplied, or a difference between an intake air flow rate (Qpm) of the engine determined on the basis of the internal pressure of the intake manifold detected by the pressure sensor and an air flow rate (Qhw) measured by the air flow sensor when the secondary air is being supplied. In the case where the determined secondary air flow rate is out of a predetermined allowable range, the secondary air supply device is judged as being abnormal.

摘要:
A prescribed threshold level Dth for misfire judgment for each cylinder is recorded in a misfire judgment level retaining means 102 of a misfire judgment processing section 100. A combustion state parameter operation means 106 measures revolution speed of a multi-cylinder engine for each cylinder, and attains as a combustion state parameter a differential in revolution speed between a specific cylinder and other cylinders. In a misfire judgment level correction means 104, a plurality of combustion state parameters concerning the specific cylinder is attained, and the above-mentioned threshold level Dth is corrected as a function of the parameter. A misfire judgment processing means 108 compares the combustion state parameter with the threshold level Dth and diagnoses a combustion state in the specific cylinder. Namely, the corresponding cylinder is judged to be misfire when the combustion state parameter of the specific cylinder exceeds the prescribed parameter.
