摘要:
A system for controlling an air/fuel ratio of an internal combustion engine, including a feedback control loop having an adaptive controller (STR controller) that receives as inputs a desired value r and a controlled variable y output from the plant (engine) and an adaptation mechanism that estimates adaptive parameters. The STR controller calculates a feedback correction coefficient KSTR, as an output u based upon at least the adaptive parameters, for correcting a basic amount of fuel supply calculated by retrieving mapped data, prepared beforehand, such that the controlled variable y converges to the desired value r. The system is configured such that the controlled variable y is determined based upon the detected air/fuel ratio KACT and a desired air/fuel ratio KCMD so that the desired value r is a predetermined value. More specifically, the controlled variable is determined to be a ratio between the detected air/fuel ratio and the desired air/fuel ratio such that the desired value r is 1.0 or thereabout. With this arrangement, when the desired air/fuel ratio is changed or corrected frequently, the estimation of the adaptive parameters is not affected, thereby improving the stability of air/fuel ratio control.

[Object] Conventionally, measures for securing stability of a ship when it is damaged are required.[Solution] The invention is characterized by having a remotely openable seawater inlet means provided to a lowermost watertight deck that forms a void space at the bottom of the ship. Thereby, when a side shell plate or the like of the ship is damaged and seawater enters the ship, the seawater that has entered the ship can be introduced into the void space by opening the seawater inlet means provided to the lowermost watertight deck, so that the void space, which usually provides a huge auxiliary buoyancy, can be made to function as a sort of a seawater ballast tank, whereby the ship's stability can be recovered.

To provide an ignition timing control system for an internal combustion engine, which is capable of ensuring stable combustion without causing a misfire or knocking, by properly setting ignition timing in the compression stroke injection mode, thereby making it possible to improve drivability. The ignition timing control system for the engine 3 that directly injects fuel into cylinders 3a and is operated by switching the fuel injection mode between an intake stroke injection mode and a compression stroke injection mode comprises fuel injection timing-setting means 2 for setting a fuel injection timing INJOBJ according to an engine speed NE of the engine 3 and a fuel injection amount GFUEL, basic value-setting means 2 for setting a basic value IGBASE of ignition timing according to the engine speed NE of the engine 3 and the fuel injection timing INJOBJ, and ignition timing-setting means 2 for setting ignition timing IGCOMP in the compression stroke injection mode by correcting the basic value IGBASE according to a detected air-fuel ratio AF.

In a control system for a compression-ignition engine whose operation is switchable between a compression-ignition operation in which an air-fuel mixture supplied to a combustion chamber auto-ignites to burn owing to compression and a spark-ignition operation in which the air-fuel mixture is ignited to burn by a spark of a spark plug, it is determined whether a predetermined permissible condition to permit switching from the spark-ignition to the compression-ignition operation is satisfied, and switching from the spark-ignition operation to the compression-ignition operation is permitted when the predetermined permissible condition is satisfied, thereby enabling to expand the compression-ignition operation utilization region so long as permissible in light of the engine operating condition.

The present invention relates to a traveling direction measuring apparatus usable as a pedestrian navigation system in locations where it is difficult to obtain high positioning accuracy such as inside buildings or around multistory buildings where a GPS cannot be used. An acceleration detecting section (1) detects 3-axes acceleration of the traveling direction measuring apparatus, which varies with the walking of the pedestrian. An acceleration data acquiring section (2) obtains 3-axes acceleration data repeatedly by the number of prescribed times or more, said 3-axes acceleration data varies with the walking of the pedestrian. A first gravity acceleration calculating section (3) calculates, when the pedestrian is walking with holding the traveling direction measuring apparatus in a generally fixed attitude, gravity acceleration by averaging acceleration data sets during several steps obtained by the acceleration data acquiring section (2). A first moving direction estimating section (4) estimates the moving direction of the pedestrian from frequency components corresponding to the duration of one step of the acceleration data sets projected on a plane perpendicular to the gravity acceleration calculated by the first gravity acceleration calculating section (3).

In a control system for a compression-ignition engine whose operation is switchable between a compression-ignition operation in which an air-fuel mixture supplied to a combustion chamber auto-ignites to burn owing to compression and a spark-ignition operation in which the air-fuel mixture is ignited to burn by a spark of a spark plug, it is determined whether a predetermined prohibitive condition to prohibit switching from the spark-ignition to the compression-ignition operation is satisfied, and switching from the spark-ignition operation to the compression-ignition operation is prohibited when the predetermined prohibitive condition is satisfied, thereby enabling to avoid premature ignition and misfire and to prevent drivability and fuel consumption performance from being affected therefrom.

A vibrator 10, which is formed in a silicon wafer 1 by means of MEMS technique, has eight beam portions (beams) 12 supported at a central portion 11 and extending in the radial direction while mutually keeping the same angle and has a ring portion 13 connected to the eight beam portions 12. Outside the ring portion 13, eight electrodes 21a to 21h for electrostatic actuation, capacitance detection, or the like are spaced uniformly with a gap 22 created between the ring portion 13 and the electrodes 21a to 21h. Inside the ring portion 13, sixteen electrodes 23 for frequency adjustment are spaced uniformly with a gap 24 created between the ring portion 13 and the electrodes 23.
