摘要:
The present invention provides a method and apparatus using a gas concentration sensor for accurately controlling an air fuel ratio in an internal combustion engine, featuring in that before the fuel-vaporized gas purged from the canister enters into the intake manifold whereat the sensor detects the gas concentration of the purged gas, the sensor is adjusted so as to adjust a zero point (or zero output level) of the sensor output. In step 100, a judgment is made as to whether the flow rate of air reaches a predetermined level. In step 110, processing for zero-point correction of the gas concentration sensor is performed. Specifically, in a state in which the purge valve 17 is closed, concentration of purge gas is measured by use of the gas concentration sensor 4, and a sensor output S1 at that time is obtained. Subsequently, the sensor output S1 is compared with a correct sensor output S0 in order to obtain a difference ΔS therebetween. Accordingly, during subsequent gas concentration measurement, a value S3 obtained through subtraction of the difference ΔS from an obtained sensor output S2 is used as a correct sensor output. In step 120, a supply amount of purge gas, i.e., a concentration of the purge gas to be supplied is obtained. In subsequent step 130, the purge valve 17 is driven in order to supply purge gas to the intake pipe 2 in a required amount (A%).

摘要:
A ceramic valve supporting structure comprising in use for internal combustion engine; a ceramic valve (1) having an integral stem (1b), the upper portion of which is provided with a circular groove (2); a cotter (3) the outer surface of which is tapered, and formed by butting a pair of semi-cylindrical pieces, and having a lock projection (3a) placed into the groove (2) when secured concentrically to the outer surface of the stem, a cylindrical retainer (4) concentrically secured to the cotter surface of the cotter so as to support the valve (1) through the cotter (3); the retainer (4) being provided with the inner surface tapered in a direction so as to make the cotter (3) tightly engage with the outer surface of the stem (1b) by means of wedge effect against the tapered cotter (3) due to the urging force of a coil spring member (6) axially exerted to the retainer (4); and a stress relief means provided so as to avoid the predetermined portion of the cotter from locally engaging against the outer surface of the stem. Stress relief is provided by a bevelled portion (4c) at the end of the retainer (4) adjacent the valve head to provide a clearance between the retainer (4) and cotter (3) at the end of the cotter.
