摘要:
An apparatus automatically shifts a vehicle transmission, according to a shift pattern and on the basis of a detected parameter of the pattern. The shift pattern or the detected parameter is compensated by a compensating coefficient determined from an actual intake air quantity of the engine, and a required intake air quantity calculated from the throttle opening and the engine speed. The apparatus includes an arrangement for adjusting the compensating coefficient so as to prevent busy shifting actions of the transmission upon changing of the throttle opening, or an arrangement for determining the compensating coefficient so as to reflect the driver's desire for accelerating the vehicle, preferably depending upon the vehicle running condition. An arrangement adjusts compensating coefficient so as to reduce an influence of errors in the required and actual intake air quantity, or an influence of chronological change of the engine, or prevent unnecessary shift-up action of the transmission when the air conditioner is on. A further arrangement replaces the calculated compensating coefficient by a lower or upper limit or a standard value if the calculated coefficient is abnormally small or large.

A fuel supply control system for an engine comprises a canister for temporarily storing fuel vapor, a purge passage extending between the canister and a intake passage downstream of a throttle valve, and a purge control valve arrange in the purge passage for controlling the amount of a purge gas, that is, air containing fuel vapor, flowing through the purge passage. The purge control valve is controlled by a duty ratio, which is defined as a ratio of a period during which the purge control valve is opened to a duty cycle time. Namely, the purge control valve is driven to make an opening ratio of the purge control valve equal to the duty ratio. The duty cycle for each cycle is calculated before the corresponding cycle starts, in accordance with an engine operating condition at that time. During each cycle, a corrected duty cycle is calculated in accordance with the engine operating condition at that time. Then, the purge control valve is driven to make opening ratio of the purge control valve equal to this corrected duty ratio.

A hydraulic control apparatus for an automatic transmission of a motor vehicle, which has a plurality of gear positions that are selectively established by selective operation of hydraulically operated frictional coupling devices. The apparatus includes a pressure regulating device which receives a hydraulic pressure generated by a pressure source and generates a line pressure to be applied to the coupling devices. The pressure regulating device regulates the line pressure on the basis of the detected throttle opening angle of the engine when the vehicle is running in a transient state, and on the basis of the detected intake air quantity of the engine when the vehicle is running in a steady state.
摘要:
A fuel supply control system for an engine comprises a fuel injector for feeding fuel into the engine, a canister for temporarily storing fuel vapor, and an air-fuel ratio sensor for sensing an air-fuel ratio of the engine. The canister is connected to an intake passage downstream of a throttle valve to purge a purge gas, that is, air containing fuel vapor, into the intake passage. An amount of fuel to be injected from the fuel injector is corrected in accordance with output a signals of the air-fuel ratio sensor to make the air-fuel ratio equal to a target air-fuel ratio. An initial value of a fuel vapor concentration coefficient, which represents a concentration of fuel vapor in air fed into the engine, is calculated in accordance with a deviation caused when the purging operation starts. A decrement of the fuel vapor concentration coefficient caused when the purge gas is purged by a predetermined amount is calculated using a relationship between the decrement and the fuel vapor concentration coefficient, which relationship is prepared in advance. The fuel vapor concentration coefficient is further corrected by subtracting the decrement from the initial value whenever the purge gas is purged by the predetermined amount. The amount of fuel is reduced in accordance with the fuel vapor concentration coefficient.
