摘要:
A system for controlling in a feedback control mode the air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture to be supplied to an internal combustion engine in response to the deviation from a reference value, of an output of an exhaust sensor for sensing the concentration of a component of engine exhaust gas. The reference value is varied even during stopping of the feedback control due to an lowered engine temperature, thereby preventing an erroneous control. Additionally, the reference value and the value of a current flow to the exhaust sensor are varied immediately when the feedback control is stopped due to lowering in the engine temperature, thereby quickening the initiation of the feedback control.
摘要:
An air flow rate compensation circuit is provided to compensate for an erroneous air flow rate signal produced in response to the movement of the flap of an air flow meter disposed in the intake air passage of an internal combustion engine where the erroneous nature of the signal occurs because of an overshoot characteristic of the flap. The compensation circuit produces an output signal with which either an air/fuel ratio control signal produced in response to the air flow rate signal or the air flow rate signal per se is modified where the output signal is produced in response to the movement of the throttle valve or the variation of the air flow rate signal.

A closed loop mixture control system for an internal combustion engine comprises an exhaust gas sensor, a source of injecting a current into the exhaust gas sensor to develop a substantial voltage across the internal impedance thereof, and a variable reference setting circuit which establishes a variable reference voltage and reduces its value as a function of time such that the reference voltage lies between the maximum and minimum peak values of the output signal from the exhaust gas sensor.
摘要:
A fuel control system for an internal combustion engine includes an exhaust gas sensor from which feedback control signal is derived, a limiter for limiting the maximum and minimum voltages of the control signal and a triangular wave generator. The triangular wave has a constant amplitude peak of which the maximum value is slightly greater than the maximum voltage of the control signal and the minimum value is slightly below the minimum voltage of the control signal. A comparator is provided to produce an output at one of two binary levels depending upon whether the control signal is above or below the instantaneous value of the triangular wave. The output from the comparator is a train of pulses whose duty cycle ranges from predetermined minimum to maximum values which correspond respectively to the minimum open and closure times of air-fuel mixing control valves.
摘要:
In a closed-loop mixture control system for internal combustion engines, the concentration of an exhaust composition contained in the emissions from the engine is compared with a predetermined value in a comparator to determine whether the fuel quantity is to be corrected in a direction to increase it or decrease it. The rate of change of the correction is controlled in response to a sensed acceleration or deceleration of the engine for a small duration of time to compensate for the error arising from the transport delay time of the engine at the instant of the acceleration or deceleration.
摘要:
A closed-loop mixture control system for an internal combustion engine comprises an electronic control section and an electromechanical section comprised of the engine, an air-fuel metering system and an exhaust composition sensor. The system further comprises a first diagnosis circuit for testing the electromechanical section by application of a recurrent series of binary signals to the metering system, and second and third diagnosis for circuits for testing the function of the electronic control section by application of staircase waveform signal or a train of variable width pulses selectively to the input of the control section. The applied test signals are received by the respective diagnosis circuits to check the performance of the control loop.
摘要:
A control point of a closed loop mixture control system for an internal combustion engine is varied by extending the duration of a signal representative of the deviation of air-fuel ratio from a preset value, or by alternately supplying an engine speed representative pulse sequence in opposite polarities to a first and a second output terminal. An integrator is connected to respond to the duration-extended deviation signal or connected to the first and second output terminals to effect integration of the alternatively supplied, opposite-polarity pulses to generate a stepwise voltage waveform. The integrator output is used as a feedback control signal which fluctuates about a level differing from the present value to shift the control point of the closed loop corresponding to said difference.
摘要:
A vinyl monomer is graft polymerized on an aromatic hydrocarbon-based polymer film substrate to introduce graft chains into the substrate and thereafter a functional monomer represented by the following formula and having sulfonic acid groups or functional groups capable of conversion to sulfonic acid groups is graft polymerized to introduce the sulfonic acid groups or the functional groups capable of conversion to sulfonic acid groups: where R is an aromatic ring or an aliphatic chain; X is (1) —OH, (2) —OLi, —ONa or —OK, (3) —F or —Cl, or (4) —OCnH2n+1 where n is an integer of 1 to 7. Since the graft chains obtained by graft polymerization of the vinyl monomer can also be utilized as scaffold polymers, the graft polymerizability of the functional monomer to the aromatic hydrocarbon-based polymer film substrate is sufficiently improved to enable the preparation of a polymer electrolyte membrane that excels not only in proton conductivity and mechanical strength but also in dimensional stability.
摘要:
Polymer ion-exchange membranes having outstanding electrical conductivity, water retention and oxidation resistance are produced by the steps of uniformly mixing an organic high-molecular weight resin with functional inorganics having the abilities to promote graft polymerization of polymerizable monomers, adsorb water and conduct protons, irradiating the resulting functional inorganics/polymer membrane to initiate graft polymerization or graft copolymerization of polymerizable monomers having functional groups, and then introducing sulfonic acid groups into the graft chains.
摘要:
A polymer film substrate is irradiated with ions to make a large number of nano-sized through-holes and the substrate may be further irradiated with ionizing radiation so that a functional monomer may be grafted or co-grafted onto a surface of the film and within the holes; in addition, sulfonic acid group(s) may be introduced into the graft chains to produce a polymer ion-exchange membrane that may have high oxidation resistance, dimensional stability, electrical conductivity and/or methanol resistance, as well as may have an ion-exchange capacity controlled over a wide range.
