摘要:
In an engine capable of continuously controlling an intake air quantity by varying an intake valve operating characteristic, an intake valve lift is sensed as well as an engine speed. Then, an intake air quantity is calculated in accordance with the engine speed and intake valve lift when an engine operating point is in a very low lift state.

Intake valve drive shaft and exhaust valve drive shaft are arranged in parallel to each other and provided with sprockets, respectively, for receiving engine rotation from a crank shaft. A rocker cam is swingably mounted on the intake valve drive shaft to push the intake valve, and connected mechanically by a link mechanism with the intake valve drive shaft. The axis of the intake valve drive shaft is offset from the axis of the intake valve to one side. The rocker cam includes a cam nose which projects to the other side of the axis of the intake valve when the intake valve is in the closed state.

A valve operating device that opens and closes a valve of an internal combustion engine by driving a valve stem in an axial direction includes a rocker cam that rocks in accordance with a rotation of a drive shaft and has a driving cam portion and a lift restricting cam portion; a cam follower that lifts the valve by contacting the driving cam portion slidingly; and a restricting member that prevents the cam follower from separating from the driving cam portion in cooperation with the lift restricting cam portion. A gap is formed between the restricting member and the rocker cam in a state where the cam follower is in contact with the driving cam portion and disappears such that the restricting member and the rocker cam come into contact with each other only when the cam follower separates from the driving cam portion.

An intake control apparatus for an internal combustion engine includes a variable valve operating mechanism capable of varying a lift and operation angle of an intake valve continuously and a control unit that controls an intake air amount by varying the lift and operation angle of the intake valve in accordance with an operating condition of the engine. The control unit has a learning section that learns a controlled position of the variable valve operating mechanism at a learning position that is a predetermined lift and operation angle located between a minimum value and a maximum value of the lift and operation angle that can be actually realized by the variable valve operating mechanism.
