    摘要: An engine is equipped with a mechanism for supplying supplementary air into an exhaust conduit upstream of a catalytic converter in order to increase catalytic activity thereof. An incremental proportion for fuel supply during this supply of supplementary air is determined so as to keep the concentration of oxygen upstream of the catalytic converter substantially at a predetermined value which corresponds to an air/fuel ratio on the lean side of stoichiometric. Further, the amount of fuel supplied is corrected according to the greater of this incremental proportion and an incremental proportion which is determined according to the temperature of the engine. By doing this, the oxygen concentration in the vicinity of the intake of the catalytic converter is maintained at the predetermined value which is lean, and the catalyst is activated at an early stage.

    摘要: A fuel supply amount to a spark ignition engine is increased and an ignition timing of an air-fuel mixture is retarded during cold startup. At the same time, it is determined whether or not the air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture is richer than a predetermined level, and retardation of the ignition timing is prohibited when it is richer than this predetermined level. In this way, retardation of ignition timing is prohibited when the air-fuel ratio is very rich immediately after startup. Combustion immediately after startup is therefore stable, and the discharge amount of HC is effectively reduced.

    摘要: During engine idling, secondary air is introduced into the exhaust conduit at a location upstream of a three-way catalytic converter in order to promote the oxidation of HC and CO. During the supply of secondary air, the output of an air-fuel ratio sensor, which is disposed downstream of the catalytic converter and which is normally used to correct the control provided by an air-fuel ratio sensor located upstream of the catalytic converter and the supply of secondary air, is ignored during the time secondary air is supplied and for a period after the supply of secondary air is stopped.

    摘要: A catalytic converter for purifying exhaust gas from an automotive vehicle engine. The catalytic converter is composed of a metallic carrier for catalyst metal, disposed inside a casing. The metallic carrier is constructed of a main sheet metal structure which is formed by turning up an elongate flat sheet metal in a zigzag manner in cross-section, so that the main sheet metal structure has a plurality of parallel flat portions. The adjacent flat portions define therebetween a space. The main sheet metal structure is coated over all of its surfaces with an electrically insulative alumina layer. A plurality of corrugated sheet metal spacers are disposed and secured in the respective spaces thereby to define fine gas passages through which exhaust gas flows. Thus, the main sheet metal structure is electrically insulated from the corrugated sheet metal spacers, so that electric current is passed only through the main sheet metal structure. The main sheet metal structure serves as a heater element for promoting activation of the catalyst metal.

    摘要: A catalytic element is encased in a shell in such a way as to be held tightly between shell halves but not fixed to same. A pair of stoppers for preventing endwise movement of the catalytic element is provided to the shell. A predetermined clearance is provided between each of the stoppers and each end of the catalytic element so as to allow such movement of the catalytic element relative to the shell that results from a thermal expansion differential between the catalytic element and the shell.

    摘要: The total length of starter harness 7 for exclusive use for connecting a starter for an engine and plus-side terminal 4a of in-vehicle battery 4 is increased by providing a surplus redundant segment 21 to increase resistance in harness 7 beyond length required for laying the harness in an engine room. Redundant segment 21 is collected in a form of rod by forming a two-fold portion by folding a portion of the single continuous harness 7, and further folding the two-fold portion twice, and fixed through harness holder 23 to bracket 22 of battery tray 25. Without using a resistor receiving limitation of the heat resistance, it is possible to suppress a voltage drop at the time of restart, problematical in a vehicle having an idle-stop function. A required resistance is obtained by increasing the length redundantly, so that a temperature increase of harness 7 is small.
