摘要:
An onboard load control apparatus and a method for detecting a fault of an onboard electrical load with high accuracy are disclosed. The control apparatus comprises an onboard battery mounted on an automotive vehicle, an electrical heater for electrically heating an electrical load such as an electrically-heated catalyst supplied with power from the onboard battery, an auxiliary relay for turning on/off the power to the electrical heater from the onboard battery, and an ECU for controlling the on/off operation of the auxiliary relay. The apparatus further comprises an engine speed detector for detecting the engine speed of the internal combustion engine and a fault judgement unit for judging whether the electrical heater is normal or faulty on the basis of the fluctuation amount of the engine speed of the internal combustion engine detected by the engine speed detector before and after switching the auxiliary relay. A fault of the electrical load is judged by detecting the voltage across the onboard battery while taking the fluctuation amount of the same voltage into consideration. The apparatus further comprises a load condition holder for holding the load condition of a specific load while the engine speed or the battery voltage is detected.

The object of the present invention is to provide a controller, for a combustion engine, having a simple structure and which can reduce the exhaust emissions at the engine start-up time. The controller comprises a means for decreasing the pressure in an intake air passage downstream of a throttle valve during the engine cranking operation. A controller comprises an air pump, a means for communicating an inlet of the air pump either to the atmosphere or to an intake air passage downstream of a throttle valve, and a means for changing the inlet of the air pump from the atmosphere to the intake air passage downstream of the throttle valve and to activate the air pump during the engine cranking operation. Another controller comprises a vacuum tank, for example, a brake-booster instead of the air pump that enables it to more quickly reduce the air pressure in the intake air passage downstream the throttle valve.

Disclosed are a porous membrane which is made from a material containing, as its main component, a polytetrafluoroethylene resin, and a method of producing a porous membrane comprising forming a hollow or sheet-like film from a mixture of a polytetrafluoroethylene resin dispersion and a fiber-forming polymer, heat-treating the film at a temperature not lower than the melting temperature of the resin, and removing the fiber-forming polymer. Production of polytetrafluoroethylene porous membranes of a variety of pore sizes and porosities is possible by suitably varying the type and amount of additives added to an original liquid. The membrane finds spreading use in the field of separation in high-temperature and strong decomposing or strong dissolving mediums.

A combustion cylinder structure for an oil burner capable of decreasing in the number of used parts to simplify its construction and assembling. A flame spreading cylinder arranged in an inner cylindrical member downwardly extends through a partition plate arranged in a lower end of the inner cylindrical member into a wick receiving cylinder structure. The flame spreading cylinder is concentratedly formed with a plurality of vent holes at a portion thereof in proximity to a flame spreading plate mounted on the cylinder. The partition plate is formed with a plurality of small through-holes and an inner top plate mounted on the inner cylindrical member is formed with a plurality of small through-holes. The flame spreading cylinder, outer top plate and inner top plate cooperate together to define a space to which air is supplied via the small through-holes of the partition plate and inner top plate.

A trimmer capacitor comprises a metallic plate member which is generally U-shaped, and an elongate conductor member which is to be located inside the metallic plate. Both the metallic plate member and the conductor member can be fixed to a printed circuit board. By bending the conductor member to displace it inside the metallic plate member, the electrostatic capacitance formed between the metallic plate member and the conductor member can be varied.

摘要:
A control apparatus for an internal combustion engine is provided, which can favorably suppress an occurrence of abnormal combustion in the case of including a fuel injection valve capable of injecting a fuel by dividing the fuel in any desired number of times of division by using at least one of an intake stroke and a compression stroke.A direct-injection injector (16) is included, which is capable of injecting a fuel by dividing the fuel in any desired number of times of division by using at least one of the intake stroke and the compression stroke during one cycle of an internal combustion engine (10). When an occurrence of abnormal combustion of the internal combustion engine (10) is detected or predicted, the number of times of division of fuel injection is decreased as compared with a case in which the occurrence of the abnormal combustion is not detected or predicted.
