摘要:
An air-fuel ratio control device for an engine, by which the air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture supplied to the engine is changed. The device set the air-fuel ratio to a lean mixture when the engine load is lower than a set load value and predetermined set speed, and when the engine load become higher than the set load value, or the engine speed exceeds the set speed, the device switches the air-fuel ratio from a lean mixture to a rich mixture to obtain higher engine output. The set load value is varied in accordance with the engine speed such that it is reduced as the engine speed is increased.

Disclosed herein is an air/fuel ratio controller for an engine, which is equipped with a function to make the air/fuel ratio leaner in a light-load operation zone or the like of a lean burn engine. The controller is intended to improve the starting performance and acceleration feeling of the engine significantly. Upon generation of an acceleration command by a driver during lean burn of the engine at a lean air/fuel ratio, an air/fuel ratio enriching device is operated to set the air/fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture, which is to be fed to the engine, at a level richer than the lean air/fuel ratio while an actually accelerated state continues in the engine from the time point of generation of the acceleration command.
摘要:
In an internal combustion engine, in which, during the lean-burn region of its operation, fuel supplied for the engine is controlled so as to make an acutal air/fuel ratio follow a predetermined lean air/fuel ratio, an air/fuel ratio control apparatus detects the amplitude of a pulsating component in an output voltage of an oxygen sensor. The pulsating component is caused by the occurence of a misfire. The control apparatus corrects a reference for the sensor output voltage in a feedback control of the air/fuel ratio in accordance with the detected amplitude of the pulsating component, whereby the stable operation of the engine can be secured irrespective of the aged change of the stable combustion limit of the engine.

摘要:
An air-fuel ratio control method for an internal combustion engine having a plurality of cylinders divided into at least two cylinder groups, wherein when each of the cylinder groups is in a first predetermined operating condition, the air-fuel ratio of a mixture being supplied to the each cylinder group is controlled in a feedback manner responsive to the output of corresponding one of at least two exhaust gas ingredient concentration sensors arranged in respective ones of at least two exhaust passage divided portions connected to respective cylinder groups, while when the each cylinder group is in a second predetermined operating condition, the air-fuel ratio of the mixture is controlled in an open loop mode corresponding to the second predetermined operating condition. When one cylinder group shifts from the first predetermined operating condition to the second predetermined operating condition, or vice versa, the air-fuel ratio for the one cylinder group is continually controlled in a control manner corresponding to one of the first and second predetermined operating conditions in which the engine was operating before the shift, until all the other cylinder groups shift to the other operating condition in which the on e cylinder group is operating after the shift.
摘要:
A method of controlling the air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture being supplied to an internal combustion engine includes comparing the value of a signal indicative of the concentration of an exhaust gas ingredient with a predetermined reference value, detecting from the comparison result a first change in the air-fuel ratio of the mixture supplied to the engine from a value richer than a predetermined value to a value leaner than same, or a second change in the air-fuel ratio of the mixture from a value leaner than the predetermined value to a value richer than same, correcting the value of an air-fuel ratio control signal by increasing or decreasing same by a first predetermined correction value in response to the first change or the second change thus detected, and controlling the air-fuel ratio of the mixture in a feedback manner responsive to the value of the air-fuel ratio control signal thus corrected. A second predetermined correction value, in lieu of the first predetermined correction value, is applied to correction of the air-fuel ratio control signal in response to a selected one of the first change and the second change with a cycle a predetermined number of times as large as the fluctuation cycle of the exhaust gas ingredient concentration-indicative signal.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method of controlling the air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel mixture to be supplied to an internal combustion engine. The method employs a feedback control in which the control is made to maintain the air-fuel ratio at the stoichiometric level in accordance with the air-fuel ratio read through the detection of a component of the exhaust gas and, at least during the idling of the engine after the warming up of the same, a lean control in which the control is made to maintain the air-fuel ratio at the leaner side of the stoichiometric level. The lean control is allowed when the mean value of the engine speed over a predetermined period is greater than a predetermined reference value during the idling after warming up of the engine, while the feedback control is conducted when the mean value is below the predetermined reference value. Disclosed also is an apparatus suitable for carrying out this method.
