摘要:
An evaporative fuel-processing system for an internal combustion engine, in which a first control valve is arranged across an evaporative fuel-guiding passage extending from a fuel tank to a canister, a second control valve across a purging passage extending from the canister to the intake system of the engine, and a third control valve at an air inlet port of the canister, respectively. An ECU generates operation command signals to the first to third control valves for closing or opening the same. The ECU is responsive to an output from a tank internal pressure sensor which detects pressure within the fuel tank and the operation command signals, for detecting an abnormality in operation of a predetermined one of the first to third control valves.

A system which monitors the performance of at least one HC sensor arranged in an exhaust passage of and internal combustion engine. According to a first aspect of the invention, a value of output from the at least one HC sensor is stored, which is assumed when the fuel supply to the engine is cut off, and a value of output from the at least one HC sensor is corrected by the stored value. According to a second aspect of the invention, the value of output from the at least one HC sensor assumed when the fuel supply to the engine is cut off is compared with a predetermined value, and if the former exceeds the latter, it is judged that there is abnormality in the at least one HC sensor.

An improvement in the arrangement of pad clips provided between a support and friction pads of a disc brake. Each pad clip is interposed in between guide grooves of the support and protruding parts of each friction pad in such a way as to provide anti-rattling forces with a less number of parts than the conventional arrangement; to provide a guiding face for the friction pad; and to facilitate assembly work.

An improvement over the caliper carrying structure of a pin-slide type disc brake. A caliper straddling a disc is arranged to be slidable in the axial direction of the disc through a pair of slide pins. At least one of the slide pins is secured either to the caliper or to a fixed support disposed at the periphery of the disc and is arranged to be in slidable engagement through a rigid sleeve with an opening formed either in the support or in the caliper. The rigid sleeve is prevented from pulling off its position by a flange formed at one end thereof and is kept between the support and the caliper. The outer and inner circumferential faces of the rigid sleeve are slidable both on the opening and on the slide pin. With two sliding parts provided in this manner, each sliding part is provided with a sealing device independently of the other for protection from the outside.
