With a variable valve timing system, engine operability may be lost when performing open control of lift characteristic amounts to the minimum or the maximum of a variable range when a sensor error occurs. The present invention provides a lift operation angle changing mechanism that can continuously change intake valve lift amount and operation angle within a prescribed variable range. At B11, the target operation angle is calculated based on the number of engine revolutions and the accelerator pedal opening APO. At B12, an error is determined for the operation angle sensor that detects the actual operation angle. At B13, the normal control amount is calculated based on the target operation angle and the actual operation angle. At B14, the failure control amount is calculated based on the number of engine revolutions. Therefore, an intermediate value within the variable range can be obtained as the failure control amount. At B15, the normal control amount is output to actuator 51 under normal operation, and the failure control amount is output to actuator 51 when an error occurs.

Conventional methods for appending a validation code are not applicable to a disk array system in which the disk array comprises disk devices having a fixed sector length. The present invention solves this problem by separating validation codes from data blocks, bundling them together in blocks that can be easily matched with sectors, and carrying out all the associated management and control by hardware, such as coordination between validation codes and data blocks and operations of reading from and writing into the disk devices, thereby offering the same level of reliability as with conventional systems.

In a variable valve timing system for an internal combustion engine, a soft-landing revertive control that an electromagnetic brake is de-energized and then an angular position of a camshaft relative to a crankshaft returns to an initial position is performed by a combination of a feedback control and a feedforward control. During the revertive control, the feedback control is executed in such a manner as to temporarily halt the angular phase of the camshaft at a predetermined position, which is phase-changed by a predetermined phase angle from the initial position. After the feedback control, the operating mode is switched to a feedforward control, so as to return the angular phase of the camshaft from the predetermined position to the initial position by changing a controlled quantity or a control-signal duty cycle value for the electromagnetic brake with a predetermined time rate of change.
摘要:
To achieve an intermediate lock state in a short period when an engine is stopped and improve the accuracy of confirmation of the intermediate lock state, an engine valve timing control apparatus includes a variable valve timing mechanism configured to vary engine valve timing, and an intermediate lock mechanism configured to restrict relative rotation positions of a first and a second rotor of the valve timing mechanism at an intermediate lock position for starting the engine. Upon detection of an engine stop request, the valve timing mechanism and the intermediate lock mechanism are driven and controlled for establishing an intermediate lock state. When a predetermined period from detection of the engine stop request has expired without detecting the intermediate lock state within the predetermined period, an engine stopping process is executed. Even after the engine stopping process has been executed, monitoring of the intermediate lock state is continued.
