摘要:
A device comprising an oxygen-sensitive element to be disposed in a combustion gas exhausted from a combustor to detect deviation of actual air/fuel ratio from a stoichiometric ratio. The element is a combination of two oxygen concentration cells each having a solid electrolyte layer, a measurement electrode layer formed on one side of the electrolyte layer, a reference electrode layer formed on the opposite side and covered with a shield layer. Either measurement electrode layers or reference electrode layers of the two cells are connected to each other, and a constant DC voltage is applied to the element to force a current to flow through solid electrolyte layers of both cells to cause migration of oxygen ions therethrough, from the measurement electrode to the reference electrode in one cell and reversely in the other. The device has a circuit to make a comparison between a fixed reference voltage and an output voltage developed between the measurement and reference electrodes of one cell of the element to produce a high-or-low level control signal according to the result of the comparison. The output voltage is independent of the internal resistance of the element and is scarcely affected by the temperature of the element.
摘要:
A device comprising an oxygen-sensitive element to be disposed in combustion gas exhausted from a combustor to detect deviation of actual air/fuel mixing ratio of a mixture supplied to the combustor from a stoichiometric ratio. The element is a combination of two oxygen concentration cells each having a solid electrolyte layer, a measurement electrode layer formed on one side of the electrolyte layer and a reference electrode layer formed on the opposite side and covered with a shield layer. The device includes DC power supply means for forcing a current to flow through the solid electrolyte layer of each cell thereby to cause migration of oxygen ions therethrough, from the measurement electrode to the reference electrode in one cell and reversely in the other cell, and a circuit to make a comparison between first and second output voltages respectively developed by the first and second cells to examine which one of these two output voltages is higher than the other and produce a control signal according to the result of the comparison. The signal-producing function is not influenced by the temperature of the element so that a correct control signal can be produced even when the element is not yet sufficiently heated.

The transmission controller changes the gear position of the subtransmission mechanism and varies the speed ratio of the variator in an opposite direction to a speed ratio variation direction of the subtransmission mechanism when the actual through speed ratio passes a predetermined mode switch line. When the improvement in the shift response of the continuously variable transmission is determined to be required and the actual through speed ratio passes the mode switch line from a Low side to the High side, the transmission controller increases a shift speed of the subtransmission mechanism compared with a normal coordinated shift.
