摘要:
In a variable valve actuation system of an internal combustion engine employing a variable valve actuator (1,2) capable of variably adjusting at least intake valve (4) closure timing depending on engine operating conditions, a processor (22) of a control unit is programmed to phase-advance the intake valve closure timing (IVC) to a predetermined timing value after a piston top dead center position and before a piston bottom dead center position on intake stroke during at least one of an engine starting period and an engine stopping period. The variable valve actuator (1,2) includes a biasing device (31,55-56) by which the intake valve closure timing is permanently biased toward the predetermined timing value.
摘要:
A valve operating apparatus for an internal combustion engine including a drive cam (4), first and second swing cams (5), first and second motion transmission mechanisms (7) and first and second valve actuating members (6). The first and second swing cams (5) are provided with identical swing motion characteristic with respect to a rotation angle of the drive cam (4) through the first and second motion transmission mechanisms (7). The first swing cam (5) and the first valve actuating member (6) cooperate with each other to provide a valve lift amount of the engine valve (2) for the first group of cylinders with respect to a swing angle of the first swing cam (5) which is identical to a valve lift amount of the engine valve (2) for the second group of cylinders with respect to a swing angle of the second swing cam (5).

摘要:
In a control apparatus for controlling a variable valve actuation system employed in an internal combustion engine, engine/vehicle sensors are provided to detect at least a cylinder pressure in an engine cylinder for monitoring a change of state in combustion, arising from fluctuations in states/characteristics of air-fuel mixture such as a change in fuel property. Also provided is a control system that controls the variable valve actuation system responsively to a manipulated variable modified based on the cylinder pressure reflecting the change of state in combustion by a model of combustion.
