摘要:
The invention is directed to a method of avoiding an erroneous fault announcement when diagnosing a tank-venting system for a motor vehicle having an internal combustion engine. In the method a change in elevation is determined at which the motor vehicle is operated during the diagnosis and this change in elevation is considered in the determination of the diagnostic result.

The invention is directed to a method for checking the tightness of a tank-venting system used with an internal combustion engine having an intake pipe. The tank-venting system includes a fuel tank wherein fuel vapor forms, a storage device connected to the fuel tank, the storage device having a vent opening and a device for closing the vent opening, and a tank-venting valve interconnecting the intake pipe and the storage device whereby the fuel vapor is conducted from the tank to the intake pipe via the storage device and the tank-venting valve. The method includes the steps of: (a) during operation of the engine and while the venting opening is closed, carrying out one of the following: (a1) opening the tank-venting valve and drawing a predetermined quantity of gaseous substance through the tank-venting valve, or (a2) opening the tank-venting valve and drawing a gaseous substance through the tank-venting valve so long until a predetermined underpressure is reached in the tank-venting system, so that a pressure fluctuation is produced in the tank-venting system with the pressure fluctuation being characterized by a plurality of characteristic variables; (b) evaluating at least one of the characteristic variables to judge the tightness of the tank-venting system.

The invention is directed to an internal combustion engine, especially for a motor vehicle. The engine has a combustion chamber into which fuel can be injected in at least two operating modes. A control apparatus is provided with which a switchover between the operating modes can be effected. A desired value (rlmd$s) can be determined with the control apparatus for the air charge in the combustion chamber. The desired value (rlmd$s) defines a maximum value for the air charge in the combustion chamber which is not exceeded.

The invention is directed to a method for computing a fuel-metering signal for adjusting a pregiven lambda value for the composition of the air/fuel mixture of an internal combustion engine. In the method, a first signal is formed which represents the air quantity flowing into the engine and a second signal is formed on the basis of the first signal so that a first lambda desired value adjusts when using its second signal as a fuel-metering signal. Various additional second lambda desired values are formed as a function of operating parameters of the engine. A selection is made of those second lambda desired values having the highest priority and the fuel-metering signal is formed by weighting the second signal with the second lambda desired value of the highest priority.
摘要:
An internal combustion engine especially for a motor vehicle is described which is provided with a combustion chamber into which fuel can be injected in at least two operating modes. A control apparatus is provided with which a switchover can be made between the operating modes in dependence upon a desired operating mode. The desired operating mode can be determined from a plurality of operating mode requests by the control apparatus.

An internal combustion engine (1), especially of a motor vehicle, is described. The engine (1) is provided with a combustion chamber (4) into which fuel can be injected in a first operating mode during a compression phase and in a second operating mode during an induction phase. The engine (1) is provided with a control apparatus (18) for switching over between the operating modes. The engine (1) includes an exhaust-gas recirculation having an exhaust-gas recirculation valve (14). The engine (1) is switched by the control apparatus (18) into the first operating mode when the exhaust-gas recirculation valve (14) is jammed in the open state.

The invention is directed to a method and arrangement for checking the operability of a vessel. Pressure is introduced into the vessel utilizing a pressure source having operating variables which vary during operation of the pressure source. These operating variables are detected while the pressure is introduced into the vessel and a conclusion as to a presence of a leak in the vessel is drawn from the operating variables. By utilizing the operating variables, a statement as precise as possible is provided as to the presence of the leak with as little additional equipment as possible.
摘要:
A tank venting device for motor vehicles having an internal combustion engine supplied from a fuel tank. The device includes a filter housing, which is connectable to a venting stub of the fuel tank and includes an adsorption filter, whose air inlet is occupied by a shutoff valve and whose air outlet communicates with an intake tube of the engine, and an air feed pump and a diagnosis device. To improve the metering capability for the regeneration mixture aspirated from the filter to the intake tube of the engine, the air feed pump is disposed with a reversible feeding direction between the air outlet of the filter housing and the intake tube of the engine. The air feed pump is controlled in its feeding direction reversal via a multiposition control valve such that the filter housing is located on the intake side of the air feed pump for the duration of filter regeneration, and on the pressure side of the air feed pump for the duration of error diagnosis.
摘要:
A method and a device are provided for operating a drive unit having an engine and a transmission, which make possible an improved shifting strategy. In a first operating state, the engine is operated using a first number of active cylinders. In a second operating state, the engine is operated using a second number of active cylinders. The first number is different from the second number. A gear ratio is set as a function of at least one operating variable of the drive unit. The gear ratio is also set as a function of the current or the attainable operating state of the engine with respect to the number of the active cylinders.
