摘要:
A NOx catalyst in the exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine is capable of lean burn and adapted to release and reduce absorbed NOx by a reducing agent. Reducing agent supplier is provided in the exhaust passage on the upstream side of the NOx catalyst. A load detector detects the load of an internal combustion engine. Reducing agent addition controller controls the reducing agent addition period and the reducing agent addition interval based on the load of the internal combustion engine, whereby sufficient reducing agent is supplied to the NOx catalyst side independently of the operating condition.

An internal combustion is capable of switching, during engine operation, between a low-temperature combustion state in which an intake air with a high EGR rate is burned to operate the engine, and a normal combustion state in which an intake air with a low EGR rate is burned to operate the engine. In the internal combustion engine, a pilot injection is executed in addition to a main fuel injection, and furthermore the execution of the pilot injection is restricted during the engine operation with a combustion state switched to the low-temperature combustion state.

A fluid ejecting apparatus includes a nozzle that ejects fluid; a transporting section that transports in a direction of transportation a medium on which the fluid lands; and a mist sucking section that sucks air including a mist portion when the nozzle ejects the fluid, so as to move the mist portion from a route that extends from the nozzle to the spot on the medium where the fluid lands. The mist portion is a portion of mist, which is part of the fluid ejected by the nozzle that does not land on the medium and is floating.

An exhaust purifying apparatus for an internal combustion engine includes an exhaust purifying mechanism, a fuel adding device, an electronic control device. The exhaust purifying mechanism is located in an exhaust passage and traps particulate matter. The fuel adding device adds fuel to exhaust gas that passes through the mechanism. The electronic control device detects a pressure difference between a section upstream and a section downstream of the exhaust purifying mechanism. While the fuel adding device is adding fuel to exhaust gas, the electronic control device compares the pressure difference that is detected at a predetermined point in time with the pressure difference reference value. When the pressure difference exceeds the pressure difference reference value, the electronic control device sets the manner of adding fuel to intermittent fuel addition. As a result, the exhaust purifying apparatus decreases the amount of particulate matter that remains in the exhaust purifying mechanism.

A regeneration controller that prevents overheating when performing burn-up heating for completely burning particulate matter by intermittent fuel addition to an exhaust system or intermittent increase of fuel addition to the exhaust system. The regeneration controller includes first and second exhaust temperature sensors (44, 46), each detecting the exhaust temperature at a location downstream from the exhaust purification apparatus. An ECU (70) determines the timing for stopping fuel addition to the exhaust system or increase of fuel addition to the exhaust system based on the elapsed time of fuel addition to the exhaust system or increase of fuel addition to the exhaust system.

An exhaust purifying apparatus for an internal combustion engine includes execution means, wherein, when an accumulation amount of particulate matter about a catalyst becomes less than a first determination value after a PM elimination control is started, the execution means executes burn-up control. Stopping means stops the PM elimination control based on an end of the burn-up control. Forcibly ending means forcibly ends the burn-up control when time elapsed since the accumulation amount of particulate matter about the catalyst has dropped to a second determination value reaches a predetermined time. Therefore, the exhaust purifying apparatus is capable of completely burning particulate matter in a PM filter, and suppresses degradation of fuel economy.

A three-way catalyst device having an oxygen absorbing/releasing capability is provided in an exhaust passage of an internal combustion engine. An upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor that outputs an output value in accordance with the air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas is provided in the exhaust passage upstream of the three-way catalyst device. A downstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor that outputs an output value in accordance with the air-fuel ratio of exhaust gas is provided in the exhaust passage downstream of the three-way catalyst device. A comparison value is calculated by comparing the length of an output locus formed by output values of the upstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor and the length of an output locus formed by output values of the downstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor. By comparing the comparison value with a predetermined criterion, it is determined whether the three-way catalyst device has deteriorated. At least one of the downstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor output value and the predetermined criterion is corrected in accordance with the downstream-side air-fuel ratio sensor output value. Therefore, deterioration of the three-way catalyst device can be determined with high precision.

A compressed natural gas-fueled automotive vehicle is disclosed in which the fail-safe control operation is performed thereby to secure the safety of the vehicle when the gas pressure drops. If the remaining amount of the gas is very small, an engine misfire occurs. If the catalyst temperature is high, the uncombusted gas begins to burn on contact with the high-temperature catalyst in the catalyst unit. In view of this, upon detection of both a gas pressure drop and the vehicle moving condition or upon detection of both a gas pressure drop and an increased catalyst temperature, the fuel supply is stopped or the vehicle speed is reduced to thereby reduce the catalyst temperature. As a result, uncombusted gas is not burnt in the catalyst unit and the catalyst unit is prevented from being destroyed.

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.
