    摘要: A urea sensor includes a detecting portion which, in use, is immersed in a liquid accommodated in a urea solution tank for detecting the thermal conductivity of the liquid to detect whether the liquid accommodated in the urea solution tank is an aqueous urea solution; and an enclosing member enclosing a periphery of the detecting portion and including one or more vents penetrating the enclosing member. At least one of the vents is a lower vent being of a configuration and size such that a first hypothetical circle having a diameter of not less than 3.5 mm can be wholly contained within the lower vent. At least a portion of the lower vent is positioned below the detecting portion when the urea sensor is positioned for installation in the urea solution tank.

    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 of FIG. 7, 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 &Dgr;S therebetween. Accordingly, during subsequent gas concentration measurement, a value S3 obtained through subtraction of the difference &Dgr;S 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%).

    摘要翻译: 本发明提供了一种使用气体浓度传感器来精确地控制内燃机中的空燃比的方法和装置,其特征在于在从罐排出的燃料汽化气体进入进气歧管之前,传感器检测到气体 净化气体的浓度,调节传感器以调节传感器输出的零点(或零输出水平)。 在图1的步骤100中 如图7所示,判断空气流量是否达到预定水平。 在步骤110中,进行气体浓度传感器的零点校正处理。 具体地说,在关闭吹扫阀17的状态下,利用气体浓度传感器4测定净化气体的浓度,得到此时的传感器输出S1。 随后,将传感器输出S1与正确的传感器输出S0进行比较,以获得它们之间的差值DELTAS。 因此,在后续的气体浓度测量中,使用通过从获得的传感器输出S2中减去差值DELTAS获得的值S3作为正确的传感器输出。 在步骤120中,获得净化气体的供给量,即所供给的净化气体的浓度。 在随后的步骤130中,驱动排气阀17,以便以所需量(A%)向进气管2供应净化气体。
